Strength Laboratory Package:
This package assesses general health, hormonal balance, thyroid function, liver function, recovery, and metabolism in individuals who regularly strength train—both women and men. It helps detect disorders that may impact strength, muscle mass, performance, and recovery.
The package includes the following tests:
- Complete Blood Count (CBC) – evaluates red and white blood cells and platelets, helping detect anemia, infections, inflammation, and general health status.
- Glucose – measures blood sugar levels and assesses energy metabolism and pancreatic function.
- Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) – the primary regulator of thyroid activity; abnormalities may affect metabolism, energy levels, and body weight.
- Free Triiodothyronine (FT3) – the active thyroid hormone responsible for metabolic rate and energy production.
- Free Thyroxine (FT4) – a precursor hormone to FT3, used to assess overall thyroid function.
- Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) – a liver enzyme; its level indicates liver health and metabolic processing of nutrients.
- Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) – an enzyme found in the liver and muscles; helps distinguish liver injury from muscle overexertion.
- Progesterone – in women, evaluates ovarian function and hormonal balance affecting recovery and well-being; in men, serves as a supportive marker of endocrine status.
- Prolactin – a hormone influencing recovery, libido, and hormonal balance; elevated levels may impair performance and well-being.
- Estradiol (E2) – a key sex hormone; in women important for cycle regulation, strength, and bone health, and in men essential for hormonal balance and metabolism.
- Lipid Profile (Lipid Panel) – measures total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides, indicating cardiovascular risk and lipid metabolism status.
- C-Reactive Protein (CRP) – a marker of inflammation that helps detect infections, systemic inflammation, or excessive training stress.
- Total Testosterone – a major anabolic hormone that affects strength, muscle mass, libido, and recovery.
- Free Testosterone – the biologically active fraction of testosterone, reflecting the hormone’s actual availability.
- Cortisol – a stress hormone; its level helps assess recovery, training load response, and hormonal balance.
