Kim Colpaert
Triathlon - I'm always looking to challenge myself and I constantly want to push my own boundaries and break my own records. Being involved in sport is a must and gives you a healthy mind. As an Etixx ambassador, I try to get that message across and encourage people to start exercising. The Etixx products provide that extra boost to deal with training sessions and to help get my body in top condition and maintain it.

Number of hours’ training per week

"If you believe it,
you can achieve it!"
My favourite Etixx products
In the winter, I use Multimax to replenish the reserves and to boost my vitamin and mineral levels. During training sessions, the Isotonic gels (Isotonic Energy Gel and Isotonic Drink Energy Gel) and the isotonic drink (Isotonic). After competitions and training sessions, the Recovery Shake PRO LINE.

My #GiveItYourAll moment in 2021
In 2021, I want to break my personal record for the full distance triathlon, i.e. get below 9 hours. I want to do this in the Chtriman in France on July 4th. Let’s hope Corona doesn't put another spanner in the works.

Ambassador since 2020
Cycling, mountain biking and running - my name is Marcel from Delft, an avid cyclist, who has been cycling since 2005. I have a broad interest in cycling sports and regularly wearing a number on my shirt for a training race is good for the adrenaline. I like to share my passion for the sport and in doing so I try to inspire and motivate others. In 2019, I was asked to become an ambassador for Etixx NL, which I agreed to with very little hesitation because I was already very familiar with Etixx through the cycling world. I am proud of the support Etixx gives me to achieve my (sporting) goals and I am very happy use my experience with Etixx products to help other athletes.

Running, cycling and football - Hi, I am a Ghent masters student studying Sports Management at UGent. As well as being a football trainer (SV Zulte-Waregem), activity leader and manager (Kazou and Route du Soleil) and a volunteer at the Ghent Red Cross, I am first and foremost a keen sportsman. After competitive swimming and football, I set my sights on extreme challenges: running 100km, Marathon des Sables, swimming the channel Dover-Calais, etc.

Table tennis - I am a motivated person who likes to keep busy, you can usually find me with a full diary and a smile on my face. I became an ambassador for Etixx this year, but I have been using the products for much longer. I often suffer from energy dips and I have found the solution to this in Etixx’s products, including the Sport Gummies and the Energy Sport Bars. But, looking forward to the Recovery products afterwards can also increase motivation during training. The Etixx ambassadors team is a great group and I am proud to be a part of it!
