MuscleHealth Physical
How is my patient/athlete's routine affecting their MuscleHealth?
This assessment provides an individualized view into key MuscleHealth factors that will help to...
- Track important contributors to health and wellbeing
- Assess current status and potential of a muscles' fuel storage capacity
- Measure baseline and subsequent period comparisons to follow effects of intervention
Scan at least one to two days after exercise to ensure the muscle(s) are at rest, and recovered from prior sessions.
Scanning both left and right thighs will provide the best snapshot of your body's MuscleHealth. Add additional muscle groups as needed.
Summary statuses provide an overall view of current muscle size and rating.
MuscleSound will also analyze the recent trends of your patients/athletes providing a broader perspective of their status, particularly how 'lifestyle habits and behaviors' may impact MuscleHealth.
Charts will also provide feedback on historical responses to your interventions. What was effective previously? How did their MuscleHealth respond?
It is also valuable to drill-down into a specific muscle group or muscle side to ask about what could be the cause of abnormal results.
Use the scheduling tool as a reminder for the patient/athlete. Send results to them as an additional reminder to return for a follow-up.
Track and monitor the response of you interventions. Modify as needed.

Overall Advice Provided
Routines need to be re-examined. To improve both Statuses review and modify current workloads / nutrition / recovery routines and strategies.
Muscle Size
The sizes and their categories are charted, status based on % difference
If applicable, Muscle Size trends. If not, you will see current.
Muscle Fuel Rating
Current and 30, 60, 120 day trends (if applicable) for all muscles scanned, this is just an example of one muscle's result.
Status Determination
Statuses are determined from an extensive MuscleSound database of scanned images.
will indicate % size difference is in the top 25th percentile
will indicate % size difference is between the top 50th and 25th percentiles
will indicate % size difference is in the bottom 50th percentile (normal)
When multiple muscle groups are scanned, or if there is a trend to consider the status is determined by this table
