DNAMO decodes the genetic conditions behind your training: the muscle fibres you lean on, how you clear lactate, how your body responds to load, and where your tendency towards injury lies.
The genetic sports analysis examines areas relevant to training and physical load: which muscle fibres predominate, how the body handles lactate, how it responds to load with inflammatory processes, and how pronounced the tendency towards muscle, tendon and ligament injuries is. A second module covers nutrition around training.
Benefits at a Glance
- Uncovers your genetic profile for muscle fibres, lactate clearance and recovery
- Flags injury-prone areas before they become injuries
- Helps you train and recover smarter, not just harder
- Aligns your sports nutrition with how your body performs under load
The analysis is aimed at people who train regularly and want to manage their load sensibly. A genetic predisposition does not determine what you can achieve: it describes the conditions from which training and recovery can be planned. The report is not a diagnosis and does not replace a sports medicine examination.
Related Analyses
Areas Examined
The analysis consists of two modules.
Training
Predisposition towards fibre type, lactate metabolism, inflammatory response to load, tendency towards muscle damage, tendency towards ligament and tendon injuries, and nitric oxide metabolism.
Nutrition in Sport
Folate metabolism, caffeine sensitivity, primary lactose intolerance, weight loss through exercise, uptake of magnesium and iron, and antioxidant capacity.
Planning Load and Recovery
Both modules together give indications of how volume, intensity and rest periods fit your characteristics.
Working with Your Coach
You can show the report to your coach; the recommendations are worded so that they can be taken into a training plan.
How does the genetic sports analysis work?
The laboratory determines gene variants for which a link has been described with muscle work, energy supply, recovery and the resilience of connective tissue. The report interprets each area and explains what the result can mean for training and recovery.
An example of that interpretation: someone predisposed towards slow fibres can also train for fast disciplines, but needs a different build-up than someone with predominantly fast fibres. That is exactly what the report is for — a basis for planning, not a verdict on your potential.
The nutrition module completes the picture. It describes, among other things, how you respond to caffeine and whether the uptake of magnesium or iron needs more attention — topics that become noticeable quickly with intensive training.

Why the sports analysis at Aesthetics Medical?
We translate your report into training and recovery guidance built on your own physiology.
Interpretation, Not a Data Sheet
We translate the report into a few concrete points for your training routine.
Injury Prevention in Focus
The areas covering muscles, ligaments and tendons are the most important part of the report for us: this is where caution pays off most.
Nutrition and Training Together
Both modules are discussed in the same appointment, because they work together.
A Report for Your Team
You can pass the report on to your coach or your doctor; it remains useful in the long term.
What does the analysis involve?
Consultation
We clarify your sporting goals, your training volume and any previous injuries.
Consent
You receive the information in writing and confirm it before the sample is taken.
Sample Collection
The sample is taken at the practice and sent to the laboratory.
Laboratory Analysis
The laboratory determines the gene variants of both modules and produces the report.
Review Appointment
We go through the areas and derive guidance for training, recovery and nutrition.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the analysis work and how long does it take?
After the consultation and your consent, the sample is taken, which takes a few minutes. The laboratory determines the gene variants and produces the report, which we then go through together.
Is sample collection uncomfortable?
No. It is brief and not painful.
What risks and limits does the analysis have?
Physically, collection carries little risk. In terms of content, the report describes predispositions rather than performance limits; training, technique, recovery and nutrition remain decisive. With symptoms or after an injury, assessment belongs to sports medicine.
What should I consider before sample collection?
You receive instructions on how to prepare before the appointment. Bring details of previous injuries and of your current training plan.
What happens after the analysis?
You receive the report and we agree what follows from it for load, rest periods and nutrition. You can pass the report on to your coach.
Is there any downtime?
No. You can train straight after the appointment.
Show all 11 questions
When is the report ready?
After 3–4 weeks; we then arrange the review appointment.
How long are the results valid?
Permanently. Your gene variants do not change; only training goals and recommendations are adjusted over time.
How many appointments are needed?
Two: the consultation with sample collection, and the review of the report.
Who is the analysis suitable for?
For people who train regularly, want to manage their load and prevent injuries — in recreational as well as competitive sport.
How much does the analysis cost?
The cost is quoted on request. You will receive the exact amount after your personal consultation.
