When your body is not responding to training the way you expect

Athletes are conditioned to push through fatigue. But when that fatigue persists—when performance declines, recovery stalls, and effort feels misaligned with output—it may signal something beyond training load.

Low ferritin, depleted cellular energy, and nutritional gaps are among the most commonly overlooked contributors to performance decline. They rarely present dramatically; more often, they show up as a plateau.

  • Persistent fatigue that does not fully resolve with rest

  • A noticeable decline in endurance or performance output

  • Shortness of breath during previously manageable efforts

  • Prolonged recovery between training sessions or cycles

  • Difficulty maintaining focus or mental clarity

  • Elevated heart rate at lower training intensities

  • A general sense of feeling run down despite adequate recovery practices

When additional support may be worth considering:

Note: These symptoms are non-specific and may reflect a variety of underlying factors. A clinical assessment is recommended.

Three Ways Atheria Supports Performance and Recovery

The right approach will depend on the demands of your training cycle. Our team will guide you in selecting the most appropriate option, informed by your goals, lab results, and overall clinical picture.

Iron Infusions

For oxygen capacity, long-term maintenance, and sustained energy

Endurance athletes often deplete iron stores more quickly than the general population. As ferritin levels decline, oxygen-carrying capacity is affected. IV iron bypasses the digestive system, allowing for efficient, complete replenishment without gastrointestinal disruption.

When Iron IV may be considered:

• When oral iron has not improved ferritin levels

• When gastrointestinal side effects from supplements interfere with training or nutrition

• When ferritin remains low (e.g., below 100 µg/L) despite adequate dietary intake

• When energy, mood, or physical performance are impacted

Potential benefits of restoring iron levels may include:

• Support for improved energy levels and reduced training fatigue

• Support for endurance capacity and exercise tolerance

• Support for recovery between training sessions

• Support for mental clarity and focus

• Support for overall physical function and immune health

Iron formulations available:

We offer two IV iron formulations. The appropriate option is selected by our clinical team based on your lab results, medical history, and treatment goals.

• Monoferric® (ferric derisomaltose)

• Venofer® (iron sucrose)

$350 per infusion + medication cost (may be covered under your drug plan)

NAD+ Therapy (IV and IM)

For recovery, cellular repair, and metabolic support

NAD+ is a coenzyme essential to cellular energy production and metabolic repair. Athletes incorporate NAD+ therapy—delivered intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM)—to support recovery following sustained training blocks and periods of high physical demand. It is often integrated into recovery protocols as part of a thoughtful, performance-focused approach.

When NAD+ therapy may  be considered:

During periods of high training load or accumulated fatigue

Following endurance events or demanding competition schedules

When recovery feels prolonged or incomplete between sessions

As part of a structured approach to recovery and performance support

Potential benefits athletes commonly incorporate NAD+ therapy:

To support cellular energy restoration after sustained physical output

To assist in recovery following high-intensity training and competition

To help manage fatigue during demanding training cycles

To support cognitive clarity and focus throughout recovery

As part of a thoughtful, long-term approach to performance and overall wellness

Treatment options available:

We offer NAD+ therapy delivered either intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM). The most appropriate method is selected based on your goals, tolerance, and treatment plan.

  • NAD+ IV infusion

  • NAD+ intramuscular (IM) injection

From $95

Boost IV

For hydration, energy, and performance readiness

Boost IV delivers a targeted blend of vitamins and electrolytes directly into the bloodstream. It is used to support hydration, energy, and overall readiness ahead of competition and high-demand training. It is often incorporated in the lead-up to key performance efforts as part of a structured preparation strategy.

When Boost IV may be considered:

• In the lead-up to races, competitions, or key performance efforts

• During high-demand training periods requiring additional hydration support

• When preparing for events where energy and readiness are a priority

• As part of a pre-performance routine

Potential benefits athletes commonly explore Boost IV:

• Support hydration and energy ahead of performance demands

• Delivered intravenously for efficient, immediate availability

• Designed to integrate easily into pre-competition and training preparation

Key components:

Boost IV includes a targeted blend of vitamins selected to support hydration, energy, and performance readiness.

  • • Vitamin A

  • • Vitamin C

  • • Vitamin D

  • • Vitamin E

  • • B-complex vitamins
