Performance Physiology Benchmarks

Meaning

Performance Physiology Benchmarks are established, quantifiable physiological metrics derived from high-functioning populations that serve as objective reference points for assessing an individual’s current functional status relative to their potential. These benchmarks often encompass metrics related to VO2 max, lean body mass percentage, and specific circulating hormone ratios, moving beyond standard clinical reference ranges. Attaining these targets signifies a highly optimized state of human physiology, particularly regarding energy utilization and anabolic capacity. They represent attainable goals for functional optimization.
