    Everything you need to collect samples for one person is contained in this simple to use kit.
    FAST · DISCREET · CONFIDENTIAL
    ACCURATE SPORTS DNA TEST
    : The genetic analysis examines the ACTN3 gene which codes for alpha-actinin-3, a protein found exclusively in type 2 (fast) fibers of skeletal muscle. It is therefore a very useful test to understand which sport is recommended to practice based on your genes. Accurate results.
    PERSONALISED DNA SPORT TEST REPORT
    : Knowing your genetic information is very useful. With your DNA test kit you can adapt your fitness habits and improve your well-being choosing between power or resistance sports.
    MAKE MORE INFORMED DECISIONS:
    The recommendations provided by the DNA Test for Athletic Aptitude are tailored specifically to your body. You can exercise more effectively because you have data from your DNA to help you make more informed decisions.
    COMPLETE TESTING KIT:
    The DNA Sample Collection Kit contains 2 x sterile mouth swabs (both for 1 person), step-by-step sample collection instructions, registration form & return envelope. Results in 5-7 business days from receipt of your sample at the laboratory.

    The Athletic Aptitude Sport DNA test considers the individual predisposition to power or resistance type activities. The genetic analysis examines the ACTN3 gene which codes for alpha-actinin-3, a protein found exclusively in type 2 (fast) fibers of skeletal muscle.
    Muscle strength (power) measures the maximum amount of force that can be exerted for a limited period of time. Fast-twitch fibers generate a relatively high amount of force in a short period of time. Athletes with this predisposition are characterized by great strength, power and speed, but they tire more quickly. They have a lower capacity to obtain aerobic energy, lower oxygen levels and higher glycogen levels, so at first they receive energy from glycolysis (anaerobic respiration) for muscle contraction. This process is very fast, but it is also quite inefficient for producing energy; furthermore, it produces lactic acid which promotes muscle fatigue. This explains why fast-twitch fibers tire faster. To evaluate the power predisposition profile, genetic markers associated with power sports are used.
    Endurance training is defined as low-intensity activity performed over a long period of time. Muscular endurance measures the ability to repeat an activity for a long time without feeling tired. If your muscular structure favors endurance, you have the potential to perform well in exercises that take advantage of this ability. The intrinsic ability to perform resistance exercises is influenced by several factors. First, endurance depends on the percentage of slow-twitch fibers in skeletal muscle. They are also known as red fibers because they contain more myoglobin, a protein that stores oxygen, and they get their own energy source, so they can maintain their strength longer.
    Secondly, it has been observed that the best athletes usually have so-called “marathon genes”. Studies have identified genetic variants associated with a high percentage of these fibers and a high oxygen supply to muscle tissue.
