The short answer is ‘No’
You may have questions or issues that do not require any blood work in order for me to provide you with assistance.
Examples of consults that did not require bloodwork:
All of these consults required no prior or ongoing blood work to be completed.
If it is determined that blood work is warranted, I can advise you on what exact pathology to complete and results can be discussed in future consultation
Completing bloodwork is the most comprehensive way to ‘look under the hood’ and see what is happening at a physiological level when looking to address issues related to any of the following:
If you do not have a recent (within 6months) metabolic and hormonal panel I recommend completing this prior to our consultation.
For those in Australia – iMedical have fast, accessible, private pathology with Sports BB2+ Thyroid + hbA1C the simplest ‘catch-all’
For those overseas or looking to have their GP prescribe blood work, here is a list of panels worth completing:
Blood work should be performed:
Consume water as usual in the morning to stay hydrated but be aware not to chew gum or brush teeth as this can impact the test results. Once blood draw is complete you can eat/drink as per normal.
Blood work is typically completed every 2-6months although this can vary greatly based off your individual circumstances.
Each client is provided with a specific guideline on the What, When and Why of any blood work recommendations.
If you have a medical emergency, your first point of call should absolutely be the closest hospital.

Paul RoosAFL Premiership Coach and Hall of Famer
”Rob Jackson is a major reason why I was able to make a successful return to the AFL after undergoing an ACL reconstruction at age 32. Over a 12 month period we spent countless hours in the gym, where Rob’s attention to detail and passion to help me achieve my goal was unrelenting. Rob’s ability to support, motivate and keep variety in the training program were also major reasons why I enjoyed working with him so much.
Lenny HayesNorm Smith Medalist and 4x All Australian
”I have struggled with a degenerative ankle for the past 12 years where now I can’t run anymore. Rob's lateral thinking and expertise has helped me maintain a healthy lifestyle with alternate training methods post my career. Rob genuinely cares about the athletes he works with and continues to check in with me regularly, many years post my career. Jacko is not only a fantastic S&C coach who taught me what elite standards looked like as a professional athlete, but a great person away from football.
Sam BleaseRetired AFL Player
”Following the 2009 grand final I found myself struggling for motivation in the off season. Despite being 'old' in football terms and battling a degenerative knee I entered season 2010 in career best condition due to Rob's ability to alter my thinking and attitude towards weight training. I believe the time I have spent working with Rob has allowed me to maintain a consistently elite standard at an age where most footballers are in rapid decline.
Nick Riewoldt5x All Australian and Captain St Kilda Football Club x11 years
”I highly recommend Rob to anyone looking to challenge themselves & improve their strength, power, fitness & all round wellbeing. You'll be impressed with the results!
