Performance diagnostics
The Rennbahnklinik's team of specialists help athletes of all skill and experience levels to shape their ideal training programme and maximise their performance. Our clinic's sports medicine performance diagnostics programme assesses each athlete's physical capability.
We use a wide range of tests, such as the lactate test, to determine the factors that define performance for a particular sport (e.g. endurance, strength and speed). This enables us to identify and document strengths and weaknesses in an athlete's condition, as well as areas where individual athletes have made advances in their performance. This information forms the basis for control of the level of sporting activity, and is also used to assist with individual training support and planning.
