Injury
How your muscles, tendons, and joints handle the stress of activity and how well they repair. A read on your tendency toward injury and how to stay resilient.
Meet Activity, a brand-new category showing how your genetics shape the way you move, stay resilient, and recover. Plus Gene-Level Insights, the gene-by-gene detail behind every pathway result. Activity is now in the 3X4 Health app and your PDF report; Gene-Level Insights lives in the app.
Free for existing customers. No new test, no payment. Just update your app.
A brand-new category in your 3X4 results. Movement is one of the biggest drivers of your health, and every body responds to it differently. Activity breaks movement into five pathways, each built from your exact genetics and explained like the rest of your results.
How your muscles, tendons, and joints handle the stress of activity and how well they repair. A read on your tendency toward injury and how to stay resilient.
How your body adapts to endurance activity, shaped by your aerobic energy systems and your fatigue-resistant muscle fibres.
How your body adapts to short, explosive effort, shaped by your fast-twitch muscle fibres and the energy systems that fuel quick, intense movement.
How well your body clears fatigue, manages inflammation, and repairs between sessions, so you know how quickly you tend to bounce back.
How your VO₂ max responds to activity: how efficiently your body uses oxygen, a strong marker of overall fitness and long-term health.
No new test. No new sample. No payment. Update your app and your report, and the new category is there, generated from the 3X4 Genetics Test you already did with us.

Every pathway result is the sum of many genes working together. Now you can explore each one: your variant, your genotype, and a clear, plain-language explanation of what it contributes.
Cards on each pathway surface the genes with the most influence. Tap a highlighted gene and go straight to its detail.
For each gene: what it does, your specific variant and genotype, its chromosome location, and what your result means for that pathway.
Every explanation is written like a smart friend talking you through it: real science, each term explained in plain words, personal to your result.
Make sure you're on the newest version of the 3X4 Health app from the App Store or Google Play. Activity only appears on the latest version.
Inside the app you'll be prompted to update your report. Your in-app genetics and PDF report regenerate together as one update, so you do it once and Activity is there to explore.
Yes. If you're an existing 3X4 customer, Activity is completely free, with no new test to take and no payment. Just update your app and your report and the new category is there.
Activity is brand-new content, so it isn't already in your existing app version or report. Updating your app makes the category available, and updating your report adds your personalized Activity content. The two update together, so they always match.
No. Genetics don't work that way, and we don't frame results that way. Each pathway tells you what your genetics contribute within that area of movement, which is the honest, accurate way to read it.
Your pathway result reflects all the genes that shape that area together. A gene result zooms in on a single gene: your variant, your genotype, and what that one piece contributes.
Both. Activity appears in the app's Genetics tab and in your downloadable PDF report. Gene-Level Insights is an interactive layer that lives in the app.
Yes. Both features live inside the same secure 3X4 Health experience as the rest of your results. Your genetic information is yours, and we treat it that way.
