Instead of training according to blanket plans or purely by feel, a professional <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> objective data about your current fitness level and your individual metabolic areas. In our practice, Dr. Raphael Bruno, an experienced sports physician and cardiologist, combines state-of-the-art testing procedures with comprehensive medical care to help you reach your full athletic potential.<\/p><p class=\"p2\"><b>For whom is performance diagnostics useful?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">One <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> is no longer reserved for professional athletes. Anyone who wants to achieve their sporting goals more effectively and stay healthy at the same time will benefit from the precise findings of such a test.<\/p><p class=\"p3\">The examination is particularly valuable for:<\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li1\"><b>Ambitious endurance athletes:<\/b> Runners, cyclists, triathletes or rowers who want to improve their performance and prepare for competitions.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Sports re-entrants:<\/b> People who want to start exercising again after a long break and want to do so on a safe and sensible basis.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Health-oriented athletes:<\/b> People who want to optimize their training for weight loss or disease prevention, e.g. through targeted fat metabolism training.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Athletes with performance plateaus:<\/b> If you are no longer making progress despite regular training, a <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> identifies the causes and shows new ways forward.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Anyone who wants to train \u201eproperly\u201c:<\/b> If you want to make sure that you neither under- nor over-train and that the time you invest brings maximum benefit.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p2\"><b>The methods of performance diagnostics: spiroergometry and lactate step test<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">We use two established and scientifically recognized methods to determine your exact fitness level. The examination takes place on a high-precision bicycle ergometer, where the load is gradually increased until you reach your individual load limit.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Spiroergometry: The gold standard<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Spiroergometry is considered the most comprehensive method of <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b>. During the exercise, you breathe through a face mask that is connected to a measuring device. This continuously analyzes the concentration of oxygen (O<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>) and carbon dioxide (CO<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>) in the air you breathe. This allows us to determine exactly how much oxygen your body can absorb and utilize (VO<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>max) and where your ventilatory thresholds lie.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Lactate level test<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">In the lactate step test, a tiny drop of blood is taken from your earlobe at the end of each exercise step. The concentration of lactate (the salt of lactic acid) is then determined in the laboratory. We can determine your aerobic and anaerobic threshold precisely on the basis of the lactate curve with increasing exertion.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Comparison of the procedures<\/b><\/p><table class=\"t1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"td1\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Parameters<\/p><\/td><td class=\"td2\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Spiroergometry (\u201erespiratory gas analysis\u201c)<\/p><\/td><td class=\"td3\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Lactate level test<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td4\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\"><b>Measured values<\/b><b><\/b><\/p><\/td><td class=\"td5\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">O<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>-absorption, CO<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>-output, respiratory minute volume, heart rate, performance<\/p><\/td><td class=\"td6\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Lactate concentration in the blood, heart rate, performance<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td7\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\"><b>Accuracy<\/b><b><\/b><\/p><\/td><td class=\"td8\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Very high, considered the \u201egold standard\u201c, direct measurement of metabolism.<\/p><\/td><td class=\"td9\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Highly established and very valid procedure.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td10\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\"><b>Main application<\/b><b><\/b><\/p><\/td><td class=\"td11\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Determination of the VO<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>max, precise threshold determination, analysis of fat and carbohydrate metabolism.<\/p><\/td><td class=\"td12\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Very precise determination of the anaerobic threshold, excellent for training control.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td1\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\"><b>Invasiveness<\/b><b><\/b><\/p><\/td><td class=\"td2\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Non-invasive (only breathing through a mask).<\/p><\/td><td class=\"td3\" valign=\"middle\"><p class=\"p1\">Minimally invasive (small prick in the earlobe).<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p class=\"p4\">Which procedure is right for you depends on your goals and will be discussed in detail in advance.<\/p><p class=\"p2\"><b>Performance diagnostics in detail: What exactly we measure<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">One <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> provides a wealth of data.

It marks your continuous performance limit. The higher this threshold is, the longer you can maintain a high intensity. Knowing this threshold is the key to effectively managing your endurance training.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>How often should I undergo performance diagnostics?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">For ambitious athletes who want to continuously optimize their training, a <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> Recommended once or twice a year, e.g. at the start of pre-season preparation and before the main competition phase. For health-oriented athletes, an interval of 18 to 24 months is often sufficient to adapt the training areas to the change in fitness.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Do I have to be a professional athlete to take such a test?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">No, absolutely not. The <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> is useful for anyone who wants to improve their health and fitness through targeted training. Beginners and returners in particular benefit enormously, as they learn to train in the correct and healthy range right from the start and thus avoid typical beginner's mistakes.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Can performance diagnostics help you lose weight?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">Yes, very much so. By analyzing your breathing gases (spiroergometry), we can determine exactly at which heart rate your body burns the most fat in percentage terms.<\/p><p class=\"p6\"><b>How long does the examination take and how strenuous is it?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">Allow around 60 to 90 minutes for the entire appointment, including pre- and post-test briefing. The exercise test itself takes around 15 to 25 minutes, depending on your fitness level. It is designed to take you to your maximum exercise limit - so it is strenuous, but safe and feasible for everyone.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>What do I need to bring to the appointment?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">Please bring sports clothing (shorts, T-shirt), sports shoes and a towel. If you are a cyclist and use clipless pedals, you are welcome to bring your own cycling shoes (standard pedal systems are available).<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>What is the difference between performance diagnostics at the doctor's and at the gym?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">The decisive difference is medical expertise and safety. A medical <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> is subject to high medical standards and is carried out and evaluated by a qualified doctor. This ensures the detection of potential health risks that would remain hidden to a trainer without medical training.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Which is better: spiroergometry or lactate testing?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">Both methods are very good, but have different focuses. Spiroergometry is more comprehensive, as it also includes the VO<span class=\"s1\">\u2082<\/span>max and fat metabolism directly. The lactate test is excellent for precisely determining the anaerobic threshold. We will be happy to advise you on which method is best suited to your individual goals.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>What does performance diagnostics cost?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">The examination is usually free of charge for private patients. A <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> for training control is generally an individual health service (IGeL) that is not covered by statutory health insurance. However, many health insurance companies subsidize the examination as part of their prevention programs. It is worth asking your health insurance provider. The costs for self-payers are between \u20ac150 and \u20ac250 (analogous to GO\u00c4).<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Will I receive a complete training plan?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Yes, the result of the <b>Performance diagnostics<\/b> is not just a series of figures, but a concrete recommendation for action. You will receive a detailed evaluation with your personal training zones and a recommendation on how you can design your training on this basis in order to achieve your goals.<\/p><p class=\"p2\"><b>Don't train harder, train smarter<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Invest in your training and your health by relying on scientifically sound data.
