A DNA lifestyle test has been on my wish list for some time now. I've decided that it will be a gift from me to myself at some point. I've always wanted to know a bit more about my genes.
I know already that I have good endurance, but I’m excited to see what DNA test will show me more. Not just about sports and nutrition, but also in terms of health. First and foremost, I want to know my body and its capabilities better – what it needs.
So I can become even better at the things I love to do, as I'll be able to adjust my training even more.

I am always striving to improve my performance and take my game to the next level, which is why I was thrilled to learn about the opportunity to optimize my routine and performance while cycling. The motivation to push harder, go faster, and get better keeps me going every time I'm on my bike, regardless of the weather. I am determined to constantly challenge myself and push the limits of what I can achieve

As someone who is interested in how proper nutrition can help me improve my cycling performance, I found the analyses on carbohydrates, body weight, magnesium, and iron (deficiency) to be incredibly valuable. What sets this test apart is that it sequences the entire genome, and with ongoing scientific advancements, I continue to receive new DNA insights for free. Most recently, I received an analysis on histamine intolerance I highly recommend this test to anyone who wants a deeper understanding of their genetic makeup. I'm excited to uncover even more insights from my DNA in the future!

Hi I'm Jure, I'm a huge cycling enthusiast. Since I put a lot of attention on creating my cycling training plan, I decided to do a Genetic test by GenePlanet. Being able to understand my natural predispositions will help me structure my training plan and hopefully I'll be able to get better results, better recovery which is all very important for cyclists and other endurance sports
Matjaž
Cycling is a huge passion of mine. I train hard to improve my performance and constantly challenge myself. To optimize my training routine and get better results, I decided to take a genetic test. I'm excited to learn about my natural predispositions and use that knowledge to structure my training plan for maximum effectiveness.

How we helped Team Bahrain Victorious set for success
We've joined forces with Team Bahrain Victorious to help their riders optimise performance, increase power and endurance, and leave their competition in the dust!
Matej Mohorič
“Success is not just in the hours spent training, but also in the time spent recovering and rebuilding. By understanding how my body works, and how it processes macronutrients and what activities best support my regeneration, I can optimize my performance and reach new heights. This 360° view is important to build winning performance, which I need to come out on top.”
Mikel Landa
“I've always been a competitive cyclist, pushing myself to the limit and striving for new personal bests. By understanding how my body recovers and what diet works best for me, I was able to take my training to a whole new level. I believe that genetics can be the key to unlocking our full potential as athletes.”
Pello Bilbao
"I am aware that no two bodies are the same, that's why taking a personalized approach is key in cycling, to optimize my routine to get the best results. By using genetics to understand what my body needs, and understanding your power/endurance response, I can fine-tune my nutrition and workouts to get the most out of my training. I believe this approach is the future of athletic performance."
Jonathan Milan
“Achieving peak performance is more than just pushing myself to the limit on the bike. It's about supporting my body from the ground up, with the right nutrition, training and rest that's tailored to my needs. It's all about putting in the work and giving my body the tools, it needs to succeed - and I believe that's the key to winning at the highest level.”

The science behind DNA tests
There is a scientifically proven connection between certain genetic variants and metabolism, recovery, athletic predispositions, and more.
Their effects are not always easily recognised but can impact your performance, progress, and motivation.
With personalised training and nutrition plans based on your genetic profile, you can optimise your performance and reach new milestones in your cycling journey.
Gene for speed
The ACTN3 gene codes for a protein in fast-twitch muscle fibres. Individuals carrying a genetic variant for a higher proportion of fast-twitch muscle fibres may have a genetic advantage in sprinting and power-based activities – such as cycling.
Metabolism of nutrients
The PPARGC1A gene helps regulate the body's use of fat and carbohydrates as fuel, and its variations can impact endurance. The CYP1A2 gene regulates caffeine metabolism, and being a slow metaboliser can negatively impact regeneration.
The genetics of VO₂max
Your peak VO₂max has a lot to do with genetics. Studies have identified genes linked with a more significant VO₂max improvement. Pro athletes can use more of their aerobic potential than amateurs, and genetic predisposition for VO₂max trainability can help you mimic pro athletes.

Authorised persons and/or service providers are contractually bound to process your data in accordance with our instructions and under safety standards of the national and European legislation.
Personal information is not disclosed to anyone outside of genetic performance nor within genetic performance except as needed by those assembling the report. The laboratory where the DNA is analysed knows only the sample code, so it is not possible to make a connection to the specific client.
We have developed a sophisticated in-house bioinformatics pipeline, supported by statistical modelling, which produces high-quality genotypes from WGS data. By having a collection of reference panels from genomes of different individuals, we can obtain the whole genome of an individual. lpWGS has been proven to outperform typical DNA microarrays when assessing common genetic variants.
• weekly training volume to achieve your goals but still get enough recovery to avoid illness/injuries,
• number of high-effort sessions to avoid overtraining,
• intensity of your training to work on the aspects that need more focus,
• training time (morning/evening),
• nutrition around your workouts.
