I am Jeroen D'hoedt and I like to practice a number of sports including running, cycling, padel, tennis, mountain biking, etc. The nice thing is that Etixx has the right products for each of these sports in its range, ensuring optimum recovery between training sessions. I have also been able to take part in a few Etixx events such as the Ghent-Wevelgem Cyclo, a fantastic experience!

as awesome my dog thinks I am."
My favourite Etixx products
My absolute favourite is the Isotonic Watermelon: it is essential to keep drinking while exercising, but you must also take in sufficient carbohydrates. The watermelon flavour is really delicious and I can't get enough of it.
Another vital pillar of support is the Recovery Shake PRO LINE: no strenuous workout is complete until I’ve had my recovery. Both the banana and the chocolate flavour go down very nicely.
My favourite sport bars are the Energy Nougat Sport Bar, Energy Marzipan Sport Bar and Energy Sport Bar (chocolate). My fFavourite gels are the Nutritional Energy Gel and Isotonic Energy Gel.

CrossFit, weightlifting and bobsleigh
I am 24 years old and just graduated as a master in LO & Movement Sciences. I grew up in a gym and did competitive gymnastics until I was 18 years old. Then I made the switch to CrossFit and since a year also weightlifting. I live for sport, also academically and really any sport can fascinate me. I have big ambitions for the future and I am determined to achieve them one by one.

Marathon
I am Simon Debognies, a professional distance runner with the Ministry of Defence and the Runners' Lab Athletics Team. I am currently specialising in the 5000 metres and the 10000 metres. In the longer term, I want to make the step to the marathon. The running bug has been with me since I was a child, and I caught it during my first school cross-country run in the park at the end of my street. Immediately afterwards, I joined the local athletics club and the starting shot was fired for a career as an athlete. Many worn-out running shoes later, I have Belgian and European medals in my pocket, as well as experience at international championships. Now, with a lot of passion and ambition, I am working towards my next goals.
