Fitness-check

Whether you are a recreational or amateur athlete, a beginner, or an enthusiast: Sports keep your body and cardiovascular system fit. The ideal basis is the sports medical examination known as the Fitness-Check. It shows you how fit you are and supports you with helpful and individual training tips. You can take the Fitness-Check every 24 months.

The Fitness-Check consists of three progressive sports medical examinations:

Lactate measurement: The sports physician shows you your optimal training intensity and heart rate. This involves taking a blood sample from your earlobe to measure lactate levels. You will receive valuable information on your current personal performance capacity.

Lung function test (spirometry): This test provides information about lung volume and the breathing cycle. A special device is used for inhalation and exhalation to measure lung function parameters and airflow.

We contribute 90% toward the costs of a Fitness-Check:

Requirements for cost coverage

Reimbursement of invoices

After the sports medical examination, you will receive an invoice from the sports medical practice or facility, which you will need to pay first. You can easily upload the invoice in the Meine SBK app. Alternatively, you can send the invoice by mail: Here you will find our address and a prepaid envelope. You will then be reimbursed the corresponding amount for the examination.
