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

    Pick a preferred schedule for an in-home phlebotomy visit. You’ll receive digital reminders 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.
