How it works

From consult to interpretation, in four steps.

  1. 01

    Request a consult

    Tell us about your symptoms and goals. A clinician confirms the right package and any prep instructions.

  2. 02

    Schedule a sample

    Choose a partner clinic or in-home phlebotomy. We send a digital reminder with fasting and timing notes.

  3. 03

    Sample collection

    Trained phlebotomists handle the draw. Samples are processed at our ISO 15189 partner laboratory.

  4. 04

    Physician-reviewed results

    A licensed physician reviews your results and we deliver a written interpretation in your patient portal.

What’s included

40 tests across 6 categories.

Recovery & Training Load

14 markers
  • CKMuscle-injury enzyme — flags muscle breakdown from heavy training.
  • LDHCell-damage enzyme — rises with muscle stress and tissue turnover.
  • ASTLiver and muscle enzyme — also reflects muscle strain.
  • ALTLiver enzyme — rises when liver cells are stressed.
  • hs-CRPSensitive inflammation marker — tracks recovery and heart risk.
  • SodiumElectrolyte that controls fluid balance and hydration.
  • PotassiumElectrolyte critical for heart and muscle rhythm.
  • CO2 (Bicarbonate)Blood buffer reflecting acid-base and hydration balance.
  • FerritinStored iron — key for endurance and oxygen delivery.
  • Iron + TIBCIron level plus the blood’s iron-carrying capacity.
  • Vitamin B12Vitamin for nerves and red-blood-cell production.
  • Folate (Vitamin B9)Vitamin for red-cell production and recovery.
  • Hs-Troponin IHighly sensitive marker for heart-muscle stress.
  • ESRInflammation marker — how fast red cells settle.

Hormonal Axis

8 markers
  • CortisolStress hormone — reflects training load and recovery state.
  • Testosterone (Total)All testosterone in the blood — anabolic drive.
  • Estradiol (E2)Main estrogen hormone — balances testosterone.
  • ProlactinPituitary hormone; high levels can suppress sex hormones.
  • SHBGProtein that binds testosterone and estrogen.
  • DHEA-SAdrenal androgen — background testosterone-like hormone.
  • LHPituitary hormone that signals testosterone production.
  • FSHPituitary hormone that drives reproductive function.

Muscle & Bone

4 markers
  • MagnesiumMineral for muscle, nerve and heart function.
  • CalciumMineral for bones, nerves and muscle contraction.
  • PhosphorusMineral that works with calcium for bones and energy.
  • Vitamin D (25-OH)Vitamin essential for bones, immunity and muscle.

Metabolic

7 markers
  • Fasting GlucoseBlood sugar after fasting — basic diabetes screen.
  • HbA1cAverage blood sugar over the last 3 months.
  • Fasting InsulinInsulin after fasting — checks for insulin resistance.
  • Uric AcidWaste linked to gout and recovery; affected by protein load.
  • Lipid ProfileCholesterol panel — total, HDL, LDL and triglycerides.
  • ApoBProtein on ‘bad’ cholesterol particles — refined heart-risk marker.
  • Apo A1Protein that helps move ‘good’ cholesterol out of arteries.

Baseline

6 markers
  • CBCCounts of red cells, white cells and platelets.
  • TSHMain thyroid screen — drives energy and metabolism.
  • CreatinineWaste filtered by the kidneys — kidney-function test.
  • BUNWaste from protein breakdown — kidney-function marker.
  • Total Protein + AlbuminOverall blood protein and nutrition status.
  • Urine ProteinProtein in urine — flags kidney stress from training.

Immune & Infection

1 marker
  • HBsAgHepatitis B surface antigen — screens for hepatitis B infection.
FAQ

Common questions about the Athlete Panel package.

  • No. Once you request a consult, our clinician reviews your goals and issues the lab order during the same session.
  • 10–12 hours fasting (water OK) • avoid high red-meat diet for 24 hours • avoid excessive physical activity for 8 hours. Specific prep instructions are sent when your appointment is confirmed.
  • You can choose a partner clinic or schedule in-home phlebotomy depending on availability in your area.
  • Most results are available 24 hours from sample arrival, with physician interpretation usually within one business day after that.
  • Coverage depends on your insurer and indication. We provide an itemized invoice you can submit for reimbursement.
  • Yes. Add-ons are common and can be discussed during your consult.
