Dietary Protein Management

During a fitness programme a high protein intake which may increase your risk of heart disease. A high-protein diet may worsen kidney function in people with kidney disease because your body may have trouble eliminating all the waste products of protein metabolism. There it is essential to carry out regular blood tests to monitor kidney functions.

DNA effecting type of workouts and outcomes

Individuals DNA vary from positive to negative impact on health. however studies have shown that exercise has an impact on improving health care outcomes based on negative DNA reports. Physical activity is a strong stimulus influencing the overall physiology of the human body. Exercises lead to biochemical changes in various tissues and exert an impact on gene expression.

Hormones

Vitamin deficiencies, hormonal imbalances and nutritional inadequacies can all affect your ability to attain your fitness goals. Blood tests for cortisol, reproductive hormones, insulin and thyroid hormones, as well as the CBC and CMP-14, are recommended for bodybuilders. Anyone who uses hormones to build muscle mass should have their blood tested on a regular basis. A comprehensive blood test that analyses your red blood cells, liver and kidney function, as well as hormone levels, can identify damage to internal body systems.

High Protein diet and kidneys

The body produces various harmful chemicals as by products of metabolism. Creatinine, one such chemical, is released by muscle cells when they degenerate naturally as a result of wear and tear or aging. The kidneys eliminate creatinine from the body through urine. It can be detected both in blood and urine . A blood test can help determine the presence of excess creatinine caused by any abnormality in the body. The normal range of creatinine levels may differ from age, sex, size and muscle build of the person. If the creatinine level rises beyond the normal range in the blood, it indicates:

Inflammation

A blood test will let your doctor know if you have elevated levels of muscle enzymes, which can indicate muscle damage during a fitness programme. High white blood cell count is a sign of inflammation and may signal that you're not giving your muscles enough time to recover from a training programme. A blood test can also detect specific autoantibodies associated with the damage which can help in determining the best medication and treatment.

Muscle Enzymes

If you have elevated levels of muscle enzymes which can suggest muscle injury, a blood test will tell your doctor. A blood test can also discover particular autoantibodies linked to certain polymyositis symptoms, which can aid in determining the optimal treatment and medication.

Monitoring Gut Bacteria to maximise endurance

The human body is host to a multitude of bacteria, fungi, viruses and other species in the intestine, collectively known as the microbiota. Dietary carbohydrates which bypass digestion and absorption are broken down and fermented by the microbiota to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These are then used in the control of human metabolic pathways which affect physical performance and energy levels. By monitoring the gut bacteria a targeted personalised dietary plan can be implemented to improve endurance performance by modulating metabolic pathways that contribute to efficient energy metabolism.

Protein types and compositions affecting training

If we all begin the same exercise routine tomorrow, some of us will become much fitter, others will get a little more in shape and a few of us may actually lose fitness. Individual responses to exercise can vary that wildly and until now, unpredictably. But a fascinating new study of more than 650 men and women suggests that the levels of certain proteins in our bloodstreams might foretell whether and how we will respond to various exercise regimens.

Steroids use

Users tend to exercise more when they're taking high doses of steroids to make the most of their improved performance during this time. This can lead to increased risk of infections, especially with common bacterial, viral and fungal microorganisms. Thinning bones (osteoporosis) and fractures. Suppressed adrenal gland hormone production that may result in a variety of signs and symptoms, including severe fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea and muscle weakness.

Testosterone Levels

Blood levels of testosterone vary dramatically over time, what may seem like a symptom of testosterone excess may actually be unrelated to this hormone. In fact, most of what we know about abnormally high testosterone levels in men comes from athletes who use anabolic steroids, testosterone or related hormones to increase muscle mass and athletic performance. Elevated testosterone will raise your “bad” cholesterol levels, and can thus lead to heart health issues – potentially resulting in a heart attack, cardiovascular disease, or stroke. Risk of sleep apnea and infertility is also heightened if you have high testosterone levels.

Vitamins and Minerals for Energy, Fatigue

There is a direct link between the body's level of vitamins minerals and the energy it can produce for physical activity. Having a blood test will help evaluate the status and improved performance.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is important to your bone, brain and heart health for many years. A study, which was published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, finds that higher levels of vitamin D are associated with greater exercise abilities. The findings add to the increasing evidence that vitamin D plays a role in heart health, boosting exercise capacity and possibly reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies have found that people who exercise regularly are more likely to have high vitamin D levels. This study looked at the connection between those vitamin D levels and overall cardiorespiratory fitness, or how well your body performs during exercise.

VO2 – Oxygen

Cardiorespiratory fitness is best measured by the maximum amount of oxygen you consume during exercise. This number presents a picture of how effectively your lungs and heart work together during exercise to move oxygen around your body to the muscles that need it. People with a greater cardiorespiratory health, or higher VO2 max capacity, can exercise longer and more vigorously. That means they may also have greater overall health compared to individuals with lower cardiorespiratory health.

Walking - Running improves the anti-inflammatory response in the body

Walk/run training leads to a significant improvement in HDL anti-inflammation capacity in subjects with MetS without restricted diet, the mechanism underlying which at least partially is due to increased PON1 activity in HDL, NO production, and eNOS expression in endothelial cells.
