I find the information about my blood values at different points in the season very valuable; it helps me guide my training and monitor the training load. Equally my nutritionist, coach and gym coach use this information to better enable them to direct my training. It’s a complete team effort and Edge makes this possible. Plus the test is super quick and easy.

As a professional athlete it’s very important to me to keep regular tabs on my blood markers. Sometimes you need to find out as quickly as possible the reason why you might be under performing in training and racing, and what you can do to solve it. Edge offer a very quick and convenient service and translates the results into numbers we can all understand all for an affordable price.

I've been using Edge throughout my race season and it has been extremely helpful in identifying where there are deficiencies and where we can make potential performance improvements. The ease of the home testing kits just makes things so much better. It means we can keep track of all the key biomarkers every month, with quick results.

Having regular testing with Edge twice saved my season in 2019 by identifying biochemical issues before they put me out of action completely. I’d highly recommend regular testing for any high performance athlete.

Edge has helped me take out the guesswork on how my body is responding to both training and daily stresses. This objective scientific measure means I know longer worry about how I feel or whether I should or shouldn't do something, as I have the answer from my results.

Edge has allowed me to regularly and easily keep a check of my iron levels, which is something I was struggling to do before without trips to the hospital. This means I can stop levels from becoming dangerously high, which is not only bad for my performance but also my health. It also means I can plan when to give blood to bring my levels back down, which obviously also has a negative effect on performance. Being able to plan these in for the off-season and away from racing was vital for me, and continues to be with the new challenges that I am undertaking with GTN.

I have a very keen interest in human physiology and with my background in Physiotherapy and sport science, I am keen to invest in the technical side of adaptation to ensure my training is maximised. Edge is a key component of my training plan as the tests provided will enable me to see the tangible improvements from this one aspect of my heavy endurance training programme.

I have a real belief that it is not about how hard you can train, but how long you can train. Consistent improvements over time instead of short bouts of hard work split up by long periods out. Edge is an important component of maintaining this healthy training balance. I’ve learnt a lot about my body, the way it reacts to certain stressors and how to look after myself with a view to optimising performance.

I started using Edge when I was in a hard block of off-season training preparing for the Commonwealth Games. In the time that I’ve been monitoring my biomarkers, I’ve learnt a lot about my body, the way it reacts to certain stressors and how to look after myself with a view to optimising performance. Having access to historical and current data from the Edge tests I have been much more aware of what issues I might be having and also far better informed before having a discussion with the doctor.

As someone that has had a lifetime within the sport of cycling, I was always keen to look after both physical and mental sides. Now a mature cyclist and having rheumatoid arthritis I have become very aware of how regular blood tests can not only keep tabs on your internal engine but also keep an eye on many factors as the body ages. I have chosen the Endurance test as I feel this is most suited to me and I can monitor my blood levels on a regular basis.

Without good health, consistent and sustainable high performance isn’t possible. With the support of Edge it is great peace of mind knowing that my biomarkers are in check and really gives me confidence to begin to push on with my training. It also gives me areas to focus on and improve if any areas are in need of a little boost! I have started using the Triathlon test, which provides me with both a comprehensive and detailed analysis of my biomarkers.

I've been looking for a detailed insight into how my body is working internally, so I can act upon any abnormal values. So when I found Edge provides sports-specific biomarkers to analyse my blood, coupled with expert advice tailored to my specific needs, I was very excited to start working with this great company, as it gives me the confidence and reassurance knowing my body is (or isn't) in optimal condition to help with my sports performance.

MyFORM® allows me to track the fluctuations of my hormones and provides explanations for why my periods haven’t become regular straight away. The most frustrating part of this whole process of RED-S has been that I feel physically fine, I don’t have an injury or an illness to show for my near 12 months off training, yet the results from MyFORM® confirm why I still need to continue resting for now.

As an endurance athlete I know how easy it is to tip the balance from training and pushing your limits by ‘over-reaching’, to over training and having the potential to be injured. This is where MyFORM® has really been able to help. Tracking my hormones over my entire menstrual cycle has enabled me see the impact my training is having and avoid putting stress on my body resulting in a loss of periods.

The Female Runner Test by Edge feels like it was designed specifically for me. I started using Edge because I want to ensure that when I am training for a big event I am not pushing my body so hard that I am compromising my health.

I use the Female Runner and MyFORM® tests to track hormone fluctuations and all my key biomarkers. The Edge tests together with the amazing team have been a game changer in getting to the bottom of hormone imbalances I was having due to being in an energy deficit. Luckily we got to the bottom of the problem quickly which helped avoid me getting RED-S and I now do regular testing to make sure I am keeping on top of everything as I want to get the best out of myself.

In 2019 I overtrained and ended up with an excessive inflammation injury whilst training for an Ironman. I needed to take a long hard look at my preparation. Edge helps me identify when I’m pushing too hard, when I need a rest, or when I can still maintain the training intensity. As a result, I’ve managed a 3rd consecutive PB in my IM races and hit the start line feeling 100% ready – a very rare thing indeed!

We started exploring Edge when I (Lily) was struggling to recover after the Olympic Marathon Trials. Through Edge analysis it was discovered that my cortisol and testosterone levels had crashed. This signalled to me that I had gone over the edge and needed rest. I tested again 4 months later after a much-needed break and my levels had returned to a healthy level. Ben also had testing done post Olympics as he was struggling to return and knew something wasn’t right. It was good to get clarity and to understand our physical health in finer detail.

I was advised by a Sport and Exercise Doctor to use the Edge products and upon his advice started using the female runner test. This allows us to monitor my biomarkers to see how they change across the season. I can easily compare how my levels change across different periods of training and ensure that any issues are highlighted so that I can train and race to the best standard.

I have been diagnosed with a condition called hypothyroidism and to put this simply it basically means my thyroid isn’t working & producing the hormones it should be.

The reason I was interested in testing with Edge is that at the moment, freediving is a very un-tested sport with very little scientific data to support our training. For me as an athlete and coach, any additional information about how our bodies react to freedive training is going to be extremely useful in improving training protocols.
