Pre-emptive pharmacogenomic panel testing
Get genotyped before the next prescription, and make the prescriber use it.
COMT Val158Met and candidate-SNP trait interpretation
Ignore your COMT result. Don't build a stack on it.
APOE genotyping
Look at your APOE result. Even the worst genotype leaves most men in the clear.
MTHFR C677T / A1298C genotyping
Ignore the MTHFR line on your DNA report, and skip the methylfolate.
Direct-to-consumer genotyping array
Spit in the tube if you like. Never act on the raw file without a lab test.
Return-to-play / return-to-sport criteria
Treat the return-to-sport tests as a floor, and keep rehabbing after you pass.
Masters / sarcopenia resistance training
Keep lifting after 65. The strength comes back even once the muscle is going.
Acute:chronic workload ratio
Stop training to your load ratio. It doesn't predict who gets hurt.
HRV-guided training
Let this morning's HRV pick today's session. Bin the plan on the fridge.
Overtraining markers
Stop buying cortisol panels. Overtraining shows up as your lifts falling for weeks.
