MyBody-X angle on Sportgene Frauen

MyBody-X's angle on 'Sport Genes for Women' should be viewed with scientific caution. The offered DNA tests for athletic performance or recovery typically analyze a few SNPs (e.g., ACTN3, ACE) whose effects on endurance or strength have been studied repeatedly but show only very small and often inconsistent predictive power in practice. For women, additional factors like menstrual cycle, training status, and nutrition further overshadow any genetic contribution. These tests are marketed as lifestyle products, not diagnostic tools. They cannot reliably recommend a specific sport or predict injury risk. The overall evidence level is 'marketing' or 'unclear', as the underlying studies are mostly population-based and do not allow personalized training prescription. Anyone serious about training should rely on established training principles and medical advice.
