The one-size-fits-all approach to fitness coaching is no more. Enter blood biomarkers: the next frontier in truly individualizing client training programs.
Today on the “Strength Coach Collective” podcast, Kenny Markwardt sits down with Ash Anwar from Molecular You to explore how comprehensive blood analysis is revolutionizing fitness coaching.
While traditional medical tests look at a handful of diagnostic markers after problems develop, Molecular You analyzes 288 biomarkers to catch issues early.
In this episode, you’ll learn how biomarkers can transform your coaching by giving you insight into:
- Resilience—if clients are overtraining or recovering from exercise stress.
- Energy systems—moving beyond V02 max to determine how efficiently the body shifts between aerobic and anaerobic fuel sources.
- Cognitive performance—levels of brain plasticity and neuroprotection, showing how exercise literally makes clients smarter.
Ash also shares recommendations for testing frequency and explains how coaches can stay within their scope of practice.
Listen to find out how molecular-level data can help you optimize programming for each client’s unique physiology.
