Baseline Performance

Meaning

Baseline Performance is the quantifiable measure of an individual’s physiological or cognitive status under standardized, non-stimulated conditions, often established before initiating a targeted wellness protocol. Within hormonal health, this establishes the normative range for key biomarkers, such as basal cortisol, resting heart rate variability, or resting metabolic rate, before any external modulation occurs. It serves as the essential reference point against which all subsequent therapeutic adaptations are objectively compared. Establishing this stable initial state is paramount for accurate clinical interpretation.
