Training is about more than what happens in the gym.
This advanced profile measures 42 biomarkers covering blood health, hormones, thyroid function, vitamins, minerals, inflammation, iron status, and other markers commonly reviewed by people with demanding training programmes.
By assessing a wider range of health markers together, it provides a more detailed overview than the Sports Performance MOT and can be used as a baseline for future monitoring.
You might consider this test if you train regularly, compete in sport, follow a structured training programme, or would like a broader assessment of the health markers commonly associated with performance and recovery.

- Avoid heavy exercise for 48 hours beforehand.
- Avoid fatty foods for eight hours before your test. You do not need to fast.
- Stay well hydrated before your test.
- Do not take biotin supplements for two days before this test. If biotin has been prescribed, discuss this with your doctor before stopping it.

- If you take thyroxine, you can take your medication as usual, either before or after your blood test.
- If you take desiccated thyroid extract (DTE) or liothyronine, take your medication after you have collected your sample.

The blood draw itself usually takes only a few minutes. Most people describe the feeling as a small scratch or pinch.
We will check that you feel well before you leave. If you are nervous about blood tests, have difficult veins or have fainted before, please tell us so we can support you during your appointment.
You can book an appointment at our Swindon clinic or choose a mobile visit at your home or workplace.
Mobile appointments are available across Swindon and surrounding areas. Travel fees may apply outside Swindon.
Preparation depends on the test you have chosen.
Some tests need no special preparation. Others may need fasting, a certain time of day, or changes to supplements before your appointment.
Any specific instructions will be shown with your test and sent to you when you book.
It can also help to stay well hydrated before your blood draw unless your test instructions tell you otherwise.
After your blood draw, keep the plaster or dressing in place for around 30–60 minutes.
A small amount of tenderness or bruising can sometimes happen afterwards and usually settles within a few days.
Try to avoid heavy lifting with that arm for at least a few hours after your blood draw. If you notice a small bruise, a cold compress may help.
If you feel unwell or have concerns after your appointment, please contact us.
