Most of all your blood tests are within normal range. The lipid profile is really elevated.
One thing I would like to clarify. Did you fast at least 12 hours prior to getting the test done. Ideally you should have your normal routine diet for a week or so and the night before the test, after dinner do not eat anything till the blood is drawn for the test. Your diet has a significant effect on lipid profile. Cholesterol and triglycerides will be high if you have been having fatty food, fried food, lots of nuts etc.
If your diet is normal, do you have a family history of high cholesterol. Familial hypercholesterolemia is a known condition.
Other reason could be that with all the exercise and body building you are having a high calorie diet, maybe more than needed and that is seen as raised cholesterol and triglycerides.
A high calorie diet or family history could explain these elevated results. If both are not there, I would say get the test repeated and if they are still raised, your doctor has to look into other diseases which may be causing this. It is highly unlikely that an error was made in testing or there was a mixup of the blood sample, but is rarely possible. A repeat test again would help.
I would add to this comment the following:
1. Your chloride levels are low. This can mean many things but usually suggests you do not produce enough stomach acid, so digestion is probably not optimal and can cause all kinds of issues with your blood work. Ask your doctor about this.
2. Your albumin is a little high. This could mean dehydration, high protein diet with not enough carbs for balance, or both. Ask your doctor about that as well.
3. Some of your liver enzymes deserve attention. Your ALT is elevated and it is a liver-specific enzyme, sometimes elevated by overtraining. GGT is borderline. I'd definitely ask the doctor about those b/c suboptimal liver function can wreak havoc with cholesterol and testosterone.
