While knowing more about your genetic potential when it comes to endurance or power sports won’t highly influence the types of activities you choose, it can help you train smarter!
For example, it’s true that many ‘elite’ level athletes carry enhanced performance genes, but certainly not all (or even a majority!). We know that it is a combination of nature and nurture that dictate our physical performance.
So, what can our genes tell us?
When it comes to endurance or strength potential, our genes can help determine how we respond to training. Individuals with ‘enhanced’ potential tend to see more improvements from their training, compared to those with a ‘typical’ potential.
But, if you happen to fall into the ‘typical’ category, never fear! This just means that you may need to work a little harder, or adapt your training strategy to unlock your peak performance.
