Introduction
About Genetic Testing
What is Genetic Testing?
Using the saliva sample you provided, we’ve generated detailed information about your genes and chromosomes. This process identifies specific genes and examines variations within them, known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which differ from person to person. The results of this analysis, referred to as your genotype, offer a personalized blueprint of your genetic traits and how they may impact your health, fitness, and overall well-being.
Key Traits Analyzed
Your personalized report focuses on four main categories: nutrition, your body’s response to exercise, recovery, and stress. These insights help you understand which types of exercise suit you best, how to optimize your training, and how to manage recovery and injury risk—all based on your unique genetic blueprint.
Why Your Genotype Matters
Your genotype serves as a blueprint for your body’s potential. Understanding these potential outcomes can help you tailor your habits, diet, and workouts to maximize your results. Remember, your environment and lifestyle choices play a significant role in how your genes are expressed.
What You'll Learn About Yourself
In the following sections, you’ll explore how your genes influence various aspects of your fitness, from how your body responds to strength training and cardio, to how efficiently you utilize nutrients like carbs, fats, and proteins. You’ll also gain insights into your body’s response to stress and your intrinsic motivation to exercise. This information will help you understand your unique genetic tendencies, such as how likely you are to lose or regain weight, and your potential for systemic inflammation. By understanding these genetic influences, you can tailor your fitness and nutrition strategies to maximize your results and support long-term health.
While we can’t change our genes, we can influence how they might be expressed. With this report, you're equipped to make informed decisions that align with your genetic potential, helping you achieve your fitness goals more efficiently and effectively.
