To accurately measure hs-CRP, it should be done first thing in the morning, in a fasting state, without strenuous exercise the night before or the morning of.

“HSC or if you can go up or if we exercise vigorously the day before HSC or if you can go up with generally speaking we really should see H s CRP rock bottom when we're looking at that marker”

“if you have a hard workout and your crp is up that could be going on you got to take a couple of different metrics or at least measures to make sure there's nothing going on in the background here”

“i've done really hard workouts and had crps three four five hscrps that then came down to less than one uh pretty consistently”

“i try not to lift heavy two three days before blood work because of the amount of variation that can happen in things like crp”

“that was basically 24 hours after one of the hardest workouts i've ever done i went to arx in austin at the time if you know about arx it's this computer program with these motors that pushes against you and finds your max effort so you're just basically popping out all the veins in your neck and your face and just pushing as hard as you can i've never been so slow in my life i definitely had inflammation related to that muscle uh tearing and that was showing in my hscrp”

“my C-reactive protein was 0.74 this is an hscrp this is always a little higher when I'm in the States because I'm working out I'm lifting weights I just surf when I'm in Costa Rica so every time I lift weights I get a little bit of soreness that can raise your CRP do not check a CRP after you've done a marathon after you've done a hard workout if you're very sore from any of those things you will have an elevated CRP”
