Sports Genetics (GENESPORT)

GENESPORT®, spor performansınızı artırmak için kas yapısı, kardiyovasküler kapasite, iyileşme süreci ve yaralanma riski gibi önemli genleri analiz eden özel bir genetik testtir. Elit sporcular üzerinde yapılan araştırmalar; ACTN3 ve ACE gibi belirli genlerdeki varyasyonların, bireyin güç, dayanıklılık ve genel atletik başarıya olan doğal eğilimini belirlemede önemli rol oynadığını göstermiştir.

  • ACTN3 gene: Affects muscle fiber composition and energy production. Variations at position 577 of the ACTN3 gene (R577X) can reduce the alpha-actinin-3 protein needed for rapid energy production; individuals with this variant typically show reduced power but increased endurance.
  • ACE gene: Affects cardiovascular efficiency. Long sequences of the ACE gene are associated with higher cardiac capacity, while short sequences may result in lower cardiovascular efficiency.

The Two Core GENESPORT Panels

  • Power-Endurance Panel: Examines the genes related to power and endurance to identify the sports in which you can naturally excel.
  • Recovery-Injury Panel: Evaluates the genes affecting injury risk and recovery processes, providing insights to optimize training and speed up recovery.

Benefits of GENESPORT

  • Athletic success: Use your genetic information to succeed in your chosen sport; a significant advantage for children aiming to become professional athletes.
  • Sports aptitude: Maximize your athletic potential by discovering the sports in which you can naturally excel.
  • Personalized training programs: Organize your training around your genetic strengths, boost your performance and minimize risks.
  • Optimized nutrition plans: Build a diet suited to your genetic predispositions that boosts your energy and endurance.
  • Injury prevention: Identify your injury risks and adjust your training to prevent them.
  • Fast recovery: Understand your recovery profile to shorten recovery time and sustain performance.
