I am Nina and I am 19 years old. I have been doing weightlifting for almost 7 years and I have achieved many great results. I used to do gymnastics so I have always been active and competitive. So I've also always dreamed of being at the Olympics and I'm super proud of the fact that I managed to do that in 2021!

Number of hours’ training per week
20h - 25h

you get what you work for."
My conviction for choosing Etixx as sports nutrition partner
As an athlete, I think it is important to take good care of my body and to give it the right nutrients. But I am also someone who likes to eat tasty things. For me, Etixx was the perfect combination of the two! Besides, it is great to be able to work together with people with the same vision and goals.

Athletics (All-Around)
I am an athlete who is not easily satisfied with a performance. I always want to do better than the previous race and keep improving my personal records. I like to learn quickly. Sometimes I try to imitate or learn a technique by watching other athletes. I am very motivated during training and I don't give up easily, but sometimes I dare to let my head hang down when things don't go as I had hoped. I am always open to humour and jokes on and off the slopes.
