Base your training on more than trial and error.
Turn genetic data on your muscle structure, power–endurance tendency, recovery, metabolic response and injury predispositions into personal training decisions.

About this package
Sports & Fitness Genetics is for adults who want to personalise their training programme. Your genetic variants associated with power–endurance tendency, recovery and injury predisposition are examined, and the findings are turned into plain recommendations you can take into account when planning your training.
What is examined?
- Variants associated with muscle structure
- Power–endurance tendency
- Recovery
- Metabolic response
- Injury predisposition
What is not examined?
- The test does not measure your muscle fibre ratio; this ratio can only be determined by a muscle biopsy. The report provides information about variants associated with muscle fibre distribution.
- It does not determine which sport suits you or your level of success. The effect of a single variant such as ACTN3 on performance is small; training, technique and environment are far more decisive.
- Health, skin, cancer predisposition and drug response topics are not included in this package.
How can you use the results?
By sharing the report with your coach or sports science specialist, you can use it as additional information when planning load, recovery and warm-ups. The results do not replace existing performance tests, health check-ups or your own observations.
Method and limits
Your sample is analysed using the DNA microarray method in a genetic diagnostic laboratory licensed by the Turkish Ministry of Health; this method does not sequence the whole genome, it reads selected variants, and some variants are statistically estimated using a reference panel (imputation). Each finding is given a strong, moderate or limited level of evidence; details are on the Science & Safety page.
Process and what’s included in the price
- Sample: cheek swab; the kit is delivered to your address and you collect the sample at home in about 5 minutes.
- Report time: 18–21 business days after the sample reaches the laboratory.
- Included in the price: Digital report + expert commentary.
- Your genetic data is protected as special category personal data under KVKK (Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698).
How it differs from other packages
This package includes sports topics only. For health topics, see Sports & Health; for skin topics, Sports & Skin; and for all three areas, the Sports, Skin & Health package. You can see the packages side by side on the comparison page.

Sample result card
Every finding in the report follows the same structure: the finding, a plain-language explanation, practical guidance, the level of evidence and the source.
Explore the full sample report ›How It Works
The kit is delivered to your address; you take the swab yourself and send it to the laboratory using the sample return package.
The sample is genotyped with a DNA microarray in a licensed genetic diagnostic laboratory.
The findings are linked to the scientific literature, and each one is assigned an evidence level.
You receive a plain-language report (English or Turkish) with actionable guidance and an expert note.
