Overview of the Sports Performance Profile
The Sports Performance Blood Test is a targeted private health screening designed to support individuals who are focused on fitness, training outcomes, recovery and overall athletic wellbeing. It provides insight into key physiological systems that may influence energy levels, endurance, strength, recovery and hormonal balance.
This panel includes 25 biomarkers and laboratory assessments, covering cardiovascular health, metabolic function, thyroid activity, inflammation, nutrient status, muscle recovery and hormone balance. It is designed to provide a practical overview of performance-related health markers in a single test.
As with all laboratory testing, results should be interpreted in context alongside training load, symptoms, medical history, nutrition, hydration, lifestyle factors and professional clinical or sports science advice where appropriate.

Who May Benefit From the Sports Performance Test ?
This test may be suitable for people who want to:
Gaining insight into the factors affecting endurance and strength can help inform more effective and targeted training decisions. This panel assesses key performance markers to support a structured and evidence-based approach to athletic development.
Tracking muscle stress, inflammation and hormonal balance is essential for understanding how well the body is recovering between sessions. This test provides a detailed overview of recovery markers to help prevent burnout and support consistent progress.
Optimising nutrition and physiological readiness is key to getting the most out of a structured training programme. This panel identifies any nutritional or hormonal imbalances that may be limiting performance or hindering progress.
Reviewing lipid and inflammation profiles provides a clearer picture of cardiovascular health and associated risk factors. Maintaining healthy cardiovascular markers is essential for both athletic performance and long-term wellbeing.
Checking testosterone, cortisol and related hormones helps to understand how hormonal status may be influencing energy, recovery and overall performance. Imbalances in these markers can have a significant impact on training outcomes and physical condition.
Assessing vitamins, minerals and iron status can highlight deficiencies that may be affecting energy, endurance and recovery. Addressing these gaps through diet or supplementation can make a meaningful difference to overall athletic performance.
Reviewing glucose and long-term blood sugar control helps to assess how efficiently the body is converting fuel into energy during training. Optimising metabolic function supports sustained energy levels and improved performance throughout training sessions.
Understanding fatigue and recovery markers allows for early identification of signs that the body may be under excessive stress. This test helps ensure training loads remain appropriate and that recovery strategies are effectively supporting the body's needs.

When Will I Receive My Results?

Your results are sent securely by email once laboratory analysis is complete. Turnaround usually begins when the laboratory receives the sample, not necessarily when the sample is collected.
Specialist markers or unexpected laboratory delays may occasionally take longer. Results outside the expected range should be reviewed with a GP, specialist or suitably qualified clinician, particularly if you have symptoms or ongoing health concerns.
Understanding Your Results
Your results will usually be shown with laboratory reference ranges. These ranges can vary between laboratories, testing methods and patient factors.
A normal result does not always rule out a health issue. An abnormal result does not automatically confirm a diagnosis. This is especially important with hormone, thyroid, inflammation, iron and CEA results, which need careful clinical context.
Results should be interpreted alongside symptoms, medical history, age, sex, menstrual cycle timing, medication use, supplements and relevant clinical background. If you are concerned about your results, speak with a GP or suitably qualified clinician.
