Who Should Take a Bodybuilding Test?

Individuals who wish to start their bodybuilding or heavy sports career and those who are already doing the profession should take the medical test for bodybuilding.

The physical demands of a bodybuilding workout can alter your body structure, metabolism, and general health. By taking the test, doctors can greenlight your training or address underlying health conditions first. Furthermore, the tests could also detect potential reasons why you’re making slow progress in your bodybuilding goals.

Bodybuilding Labs Preparation

When taking the blood work for bodybuilders, you should fast for 12 hours before the sample collection. This includes refraining, not just from food, but from drinking alcohol, smoking, and taking sports-enhancing supplements.

Bodybuilder Blood Test Panel Results

Personalabs allows you to readily read their test results through your personal account. You can refer to the normal ranges for each biomarker and compare your results on whether they are higher or lower than the standard values.

Significant deviation from the normal range of multiple tests could be due to underlying metabolic conditions. If you’re already working out intensively for bodybuilding, the change in your activities and lifestyle could trigger the condition if it was nonexistent before your new regimen.

See your doctor or avail of our telehealth consultation if you want to know more about your results and their implications.
