Sports Performance

Meaning

Sports Performance, within the context of hormonal health, refers to the measurable output of an athlete’s physical capabilities, encompassing metrics such as strength, endurance, power, and recovery rate, all of which are profoundly regulated by the endocrine system. Optimal performance is a direct reflection of a finely tuned hormonal milieu, particularly the balance between anabolic hormones like testosterone and growth hormone, and catabolic hormones like cortisol. Clinical intervention in this area focuses on optimizing this endocrine environment to maximize physiological adaptation and minimize injury risk.
