Description
Most athletes get routine blood work.
Very few understand which biomarkers truly matter for performance, recovery, and longevity.
In this episode of Find Your Edge, Coach Chris Newport and dietetic intern Emily Qiu break down the special lab values endurance athletes should know about and why they matter.
We discuss:
• CBC and CMP basics
• ApoB and cardiovascular risk
• Magnesium and athletic performance
• Vitamin B12 and MMA
• Homocysteine and longevity
• Vitamin D and bone health
• Why athletes need personalized interpretation
• How biomarker trends help you make smarter decisions
If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still not seeing the results you want, this episode is for you.
Because the goal isn't more information.
The goal is clarity.
