Reach further with All-Access Premium and get deeper insights that can help you meet your health goals.
Genetic variants related to fitness and weight loss are connected to the way that your body processes food and responds to exercise, but they do not guarantee that you will or will not be successful with any given exercise plan. Your physical fitness is largely determined by how often you exercise, the type of training you do, your body type, and your diet.
Your DNA may help you narrow in on new exercise plans or diets that you might prefer or find more successful than others, or that give you a better understanding of your existing preferences. Everyone, regardless of their genetics, will benefit from a well-balanced diet and increased exercise.
Genetics can help, but your exercise choices and diet have the biggest impact on your fitness.
