Biomarkers Included
36 markersInsideTracker is a comprehensive blood test for athletes and active people who want a broad view of their body. The panel brings thirty-six blood values together in one measurement, from your hormones and metabolism to your iron status, liver, minerals and vitamins.
Your training data shows your effort and recovery, but a blood test looks inside your body. With this data, you work with objective numbers instead of guesswork.
Why this test?
Your blood says something about many systems in your body at once. This extensive blood test brings values from your hormones, your metabolism, your iron status and your recovery markers together in one overview.
For athletes, this can be interesting, because your training, your nutrition and your sleep can all play a part in these values. By measuring a broad set of markers, you can build a picture of where you stand and where you may want to look closer.
This way you work with data instead of assumptions, which fits an approach where you want to understand and optimise your body.
Who is this test for?
This blood test may suit athletes and active people who want a broad baseline. It can be relevant for:
- Athletes who want to combine their training data with objective blood values
- People who want insight into their iron status and recovery markers
- People who want to look at several systems at once, from hormones to metabolism
- People who want to follow their values periodically
- People who prefer one extensive blood test over several separate panels
What is tested?
This panel measures thirty-six blood values, grouped by area:
- Hormones: Testosterone, Free Testosterone, SHBG, Estradiol, Progesterone, DHEA-S and Cortisol.
- Metabolism: Fasting Glucose, Fasting Insulin and HbA1c.
- Heart and vessels: Total Cholesterol, HDL, LDL, Triglycerides and ApoB.
- Iron and minerals: Ferritin, Iron, Transferrin, Transferrin Saturation, Magnesium, Intracellular Magnesium, Calcium, Sodium and Potassium.
- Liver: ALT, AST, GGT and Albumin.
- Recovery and inflammation: CRP and Creatine Kinase (CK).
- Thyroid, vitamins and blood count: TSH, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Folate and a complete blood count with differential.
What can this test tell you?
The results can show you how your values across these areas compare to the reference ranges. Because the panel covers many systems, you can see how your hormones, your iron status and your recovery markers relate to each other.
For athletes, markers such as your ferritin, your creatine kinase and your CRP can be interesting to follow around heavy training. Keep in mind that a single value is not a diagnosis: your results only gain meaning in combination with your situation and your history.
How is the sample collected?
For this blood test, a staff member draws a small tube of blood at a certified location. You can choose from more than 750 collection sites in the Netherlands, so there is almost always a location near you.
You need little for this, apart from your appointment confirmation and a valid ID. The draw itself usually takes only a few minutes.
When is this test useful?
A comprehensive blood test can be useful at different moments. Some athletes choose to test:
- When they want a broad baseline before a new training block
- When they want to follow their iron status and recovery markers
- When they feel tired or flat and want to look at several systems at once
- When they want to follow the effect of a change in training or nutrition
- When they prefer one extensive panel over several separate tests
What do the results mean?
What the results mean depends on your personal situation. Each value is compared to a reference range, but a value outside that range does not automatically mean something is wrong.
With a broad panel, a doctor often looks at how the values relate to each other, rather than at one value on its own. Always discuss any deviating values with your GP, so you know what the results may mean for you personally.
Preparation
For some values in this panel, such as your glucose, insulin and lipids, fasting before the draw is advisable. For your hormone values, having your blood drawn in the morning is often helpful.
Drink enough water on the day of the draw. If you trained intensively shortly before, keep that in mind, as heavy exertion can temporarily affect markers such as your creatine kinase. If in doubt, you can discuss your situation with your GP.
What happens after the results?
You receive your results digitally in your account, usually within a few working days. For each value, you can see whether it falls within the reference range. You can then share your results with your own GP.
Every blood test result includes a professional assessment from a BIG-registered doctor. For treatment decisions, discuss your results with your GP.

Learn moreSHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin)
HormonesSex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a protein produced by the liver that binds to sex hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. It helps regulate the amount of free, active hormones available in the body.
SHBG levels may help explain symptoms related to hormone imbalances even when total hormone levels appear normal. Understanding SHBG can provide a more complete picture of hormonal health. Consult your healthcare provider to interpret results.
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)
ThyroidThyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is produced by the pituitary gland and serves as the master regulator of thyroid function. TSH levels may help indicate whether the thyroid is producing appropriate amounts of hormones. Your healthcare provider can interpret your TSH results.
TSH is widely considered the most sensitive initial screening test for thyroid disorders. Even subtle changes in thyroid function may be reflected in TSH levels before other thyroid markers become abnormal. Your healthcare provider may use TSH as a starting point for comprehensive thyroid evaluation.
ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase)
LiverALT (alanine aminotransferase) is a liver enzyme that serves as a key indicator of liver health. Elevated levels may suggest liver cell damage and can be associated with various liver conditions.
ALT levels provide important insight into liver function. Elevated levels may indicate conditions such as hepatitis, fatty liver disease, or medication-related liver damage. Early detection of elevated ALT can help identify liver problems before symptoms develop, allowing for timely intervention and lifestyle modifications.
LDL Cholesterol
CardiovascularLDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) cholesterol is often called "bad" cholesterol because elevated levels can lead to plaque build-up in artery walls, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke.
LDL cholesterol is a primary driver of atherosclerosis. Lowering elevated LDL is one of the most effective strategies for reducing cardiovascular disease risk. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised targets.
GGT (Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase)
LiverGGT (gamma-glutamyl transferase) is a liver and bile duct enzyme that serves as one of the most sensitive markers for hepatobiliary disorders. It is particularly responsive to alcohol consumption and may be elevated in bile duct obstruction, liver disease, and with certain medications.
GGT is considered the most sensitive enzymatic indicator of bile duct problems. Elevated levels may suggest bile duct obstruction, liver inflammation, or chronic alcohol use, often before other liver enzymes become abnormal. Because GGT responds quickly to alcohol intake, it is frequently used to monitor alcohol-related liver damage. Tracking GGT over time can provide valuable insight into the effectiveness of lifestyle changes and treatment.
Cortisol
HormonesCortisol is the body's primary stress hormone, produced by the adrenal glands. It regulates metabolism, immune responses, and the sleep-wake cycle. Levels follow a natural daily rhythm, peaking in the morning and declining throughout the day.
Cortisol imbalances may indicate adrenal dysfunction or chronic stress. Persistently elevated levels could suggest increased cardiovascular and metabolic risk. Low levels may point to adrenal insufficiency. Consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
DHEA-S
HormonesDHEA-S (dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate) is the most abundant adrenal hormone and serves as a precursor to both oestrogen and testosterone. It declines naturally with age and reflects overall adrenal reserve.
DHEA-S levels decline significantly with age and low values could suggest adrenal insufficiency or premature ageing. High levels may indicate adrenal overactivity or other hormonal conditions. Consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
Estradiol (E2)
HormonesEstradiol (E2) is the most potent form of estrogen, playing a key role in reproductive health, bone density, and cardiovascular function. Abnormal levels may indicate hormonal imbalances that your healthcare provider can help evaluate.
Estradiol influences bone health, mood regulation, and reproductive function. Imbalanced levels could suggest conditions affecting fertility, menstrual regularity, or overall hormonal health.

Vitamin B12 is believed to be vital for healthy nerve cells, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis. Low levels may be associated with anaemia, fatigue, and neurological symptoms. Early detection through testing may help prevent long-term complications.
Calcium
MineralsCalcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, essential for strong bones and teeth, muscle contraction, nerve signalling, and blood clotting. Most calcium is stored in bones and teeth, with a small amount circulating in the blood.
Calcium balance is critical for bone health, heart function, and muscle contraction. Abnormal levels may be associated with bone disorders, parathyroid conditions, or kidney problems. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised advice.
Ferritin
MineralsFerritin is a protein that stores iron in your cells and releases it when your body needs it. Blood ferritin levels reflect your body's total iron stores and are the most sensitive indicator for iron deficiency.
Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy production, and immune function. Ferritin testing helps detect iron deficiency before anaemia develops, or iron overload which can damage organs. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised advice.
Iron (Serum)
MineralsSerum iron measures the amount of circulating iron in your blood. Iron is essential for haemoglobin production, oxygen transport, and energy metabolism throughout the body.
Iron is vital for producing red blood cells and carrying oxygen. Both low and high levels can affect your health. Serum iron is best interpreted alongside ferritin and TIBC for a complete picture. Consult your healthcare provider.
Magnesium
MineralsMagnesium is an essential mineral involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, including energy production, muscle and nerve function, blood sugar regulation, and bone development.
Magnesium supports heart rhythm, muscle relaxation, nerve signalling, and bone health. Deficiency is common and may be associated with muscle cramps, fatigue, and cardiovascular issues. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised advice.
Magnesium (Intracellular)
MineralsIntracellular magnesium measures the magnesium stored within your cells, providing a more accurate picture of your true magnesium status than standard serum tests. Most of the body's magnesium resides inside cells.
Standard serum magnesium tests may appear normal even when intracellular levels are depleted. This test can reveal hidden deficiencies that affect energy production, muscle function, and nerve signalling. Consult your healthcare provider for advice.
Potassium
MineralsPotassium is an essential electrolyte and mineral that helps regulate heartbeat, muscle contractions, nerve signals, and fluid balance. It is one of the most important minerals for cardiovascular health.
Potassium is critical for maintaining heart rhythm, blood pressure regulation, and proper muscle function. Both low and high levels can be dangerous and may require medical attention. Consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
Progesterone
HormonesA progesterone blood test measures the level of progesterone, a hormone essential for the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Progesterone is primarily produced by the ovaries after ovulation and plays a key role in preparing the uterus for implantation.
Monitoring progesterone is important because it may confirm ovulation, help evaluate menstrual cycle health, and support early pregnancy assessment. Abnormal levels could suggest luteal phase deficiency, anovulation, or other reproductive concerns.
Sodium
MineralsSodium is a vital electrolyte that regulates fluid balance, blood pressure, and nerve and muscle function. It is the primary cation in extracellular fluid and is closely regulated by the kidneys.
Sodium balance is essential for proper nerve transmission, muscle contraction, and blood pressure regulation. Significant imbalances can affect brain function and require medical attention. Consult your healthcare provider for guidance.
Transferrin
MineralsTransferrin is the main protein responsible for transporting iron in the blood. It carries iron from the gut and storage sites to cells that need it, including bone marrow for red blood cell production.
Transferrin levels help determine whether your body is getting enough iron and transporting it effectively. Abnormal levels may indicate iron deficiency, overload, liver disease, or chronic conditions. Consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
CRP (C-Reactive Protein)
InflammationC-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation. It is a general marker of inflammation and can rise rapidly during infections, injuries, or chronic inflammatory conditions.
CRP is a sensitive indicator of inflammation. Monitoring can help track infections, autoimmune conditions, and post-surgical recovery. Chronically elevated CRP may be associated with increased health risks. Consult your healthcare provider.
Glucose (Fasting)
MetabolicFasting glucose measures the level of sugar (glucose) in your blood after an overnight fast. It is one of the primary tests used to screen for and monitor diabetes and pre-diabetes.
Fasting glucose is a cornerstone of metabolic health assessment. Elevated levels may indicate pre-diabetes or diabetes, while very low levels can also be clinically significant. Consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
HbA1c (Glycated Hemoglobin)
MetabolicHbA1c (glycated haemoglobin) reflects your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. It is the gold standard for long-term blood sugar monitoring and diabetes management.
HbA1c provides a long-term view of blood sugar control, unlike fasting glucose which reflects a single point in time. It is essential for diabetes diagnosis and management. Consult your healthcare provider.
ApoB (Apolipoprotein B)
CardiovascularApolipoprotein B (ApoB) is the main protein on LDL and other atherogenic lipoproteins. Each atherogenic particle carries exactly one ApoB molecule, making it a precise measure of the total number of particles that can contribute to plaque formation.
ApoB may be a stronger predictor of cardiovascular events than LDL cholesterol because it counts all atherogenic particles, not just cholesterol content. Elevated ApoB may increase risk even when LDL appears normal. Consult your healthcare provider.
HDL Cholesterol
CardiovascularHDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) cholesterol is often called "good" cholesterol because it helps transport excess cholesterol from the arteries back to the liver for removal. Higher HDL levels are generally associated with lower cardiovascular risk.
HDL cholesterol is a key component of cardiovascular risk assessment. Low HDL may be associated with increased heart disease risk, while healthy levels support arterial protection. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised guidance.
Total Cholesterol
CardiovascularTotal cholesterol measures the combined amount of HDL, LDL, and VLDL cholesterol in your blood. It provides an overview of your lipid status but should be interpreted alongside individual components for a complete cardiovascular risk picture.
Total cholesterol is a basic screening marker for cardiovascular risk. However, the breakdown into HDL, LDL, and triglycerides provides more actionable information. Consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
Albumin
LiverAlbumin is the most abundant protein in the blood, produced by the liver. It maintains fluid balance, transports hormones and nutrients, and serves as an indicator of liver and kidney function.
Albumin is important for maintaining blood volume, transporting substances, and reflecting overall health status. Low levels may indicate liver disease, kidney disease, or malnutrition. Consult your healthcare provider.
AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase)
LiverAST (aspartate aminotransferase) is an enzyme found in the liver, heart, and muscle cells. Elevated levels may indicate liver damage, but because AST is present in multiple tissues, results are best interpreted alongside other liver markers such as ALT.
AST levels provide important information about the health of your liver, heart, and muscles. Elevated levels may be associated with conditions such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, heart attack, or muscle injury. When evaluated alongside ALT, the AST:ALT ratio can help your healthcare provider identify the underlying cause of liver enzyme elevation. An AST:ALT ratio greater than 2:1, for instance, may suggest alcohol-related liver damage.
Vitamin D (25-OH)
VitaminsVitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in calcium absorption, bone health, and immune function. It is primarily produced in the skin through sunlight exposure and can also be obtained from certain foods and supplements.
Adequate vitamin D levels are essential for strong bones, a well-functioning immune system, and overall well-being. Low levels may be associated with an increased risk of bone disorders, mood changes, and weakened immunity. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised advice.
Insulin (Fasting)
MetabolicFasting insulin measures the amount of insulin in your blood after an overnight fast. It helps assess how efficiently your body manages blood sugar and can reveal insulin resistance before glucose levels become abnormal.
Fasting insulin can detect insulin resistance years before diabetes develops. Early detection allows for lifestyle interventions that may prevent progression. Consult your healthcare provider for personalised advice.
Leukocyte Differential
HematologyA leukocyte differential test measures the relative proportions of different types of white blood cells in your blood. It provides a detailed breakdown of your immune cell populations, offering valuable insight into your immune system's function.
The differential count helps healthcare providers pinpoint the nature of immune responses. For example, elevated neutrophils may suggest a bacterial infection, while increased eosinophils can indicate allergies or parasitic infections. It is a critical tool for diagnosing and monitoring many conditions.
Creatine Kinase (CK)
OtherCreatine kinase (CK) is an enzyme found primarily in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscles. When muscles are damaged or stressed, CK is released into the bloodstream, making it a useful marker of muscle health.
CK is a reliable indicator of muscle damage. While elevated levels can follow intense exercise, persistently high levels may indicate conditions such as rhabdomyolysis, myocarditis, or muscular dystrophy. Monitoring CK helps distinguish normal post-exercise elevation from clinically significant muscle injury.
Transferrin Saturation
MineralsTransferrin saturation measures the percentage of the iron-transport protein transferrin that is occupied by iron. It is a key indicator of your body's iron status and helps distinguish between different causes of iron-related disorders.
Transferrin saturation is one of the most informative markers for assessing iron balance. It can help identify iron deficiency before anemia develops and is also valuable for detecting iron overload conditions such as hemochromatosis.
Triglycerides
CardiovascularTriglycerides are the most common type of fat in the body, used for energy storage. Elevated levels may be associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, especially when combined with other lipid abnormalities.
Elevated triglycerides may contribute to atherosclerosis and are a component of metabolic syndrome. They are often elevated alongside insulin resistance. Consult your healthcare provider.
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
HematologyA complete blood count (CBC) is a comprehensive blood test that evaluates the major components of your blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It is one of the most commonly ordered blood tests and provides a broad overview of your overall health.
The CBC is a cornerstone of preventive healthcare and diagnostic medicine. It can help detect a wide range of conditions including anemia, infections, immune disorders, blood cancers, and clotting problems. Regular CBC testing supports early detection and ongoing health monitoring.
