Axelle Klinckaert
I am Axelle. I am 20 years old and a gymnast. The event I like and do best is floor exercise. I am also a student, studying biomedical laboratory technology. I mainly use the Etixx Health Supplements. This isn't used much by us yet because it isn't really an endurance sport, we mainly have to be fast and explosive. But if we ever have an energy dip, the Etixx products are an excellent help.
My discipline
Gymnastics
Number of hours’ training per week
30 hours
"The best preparation for tomorrow
is doing your best today."
My favourite Etixx products
The Multimax, Magnesium 100% Bisglycinate PRO LINE and Collagen Complex. The Multimax to stock up my body, but also because we are advised to take extra vitamins. The Magnesium 100% Bisglycinate PRO LINE to keep the cramps and acidification to a minimum. The Collagen Complex to improve/help my tendons recover because I have quite a lot of trouble with my tendons. Then, when I occasionally have an energy dip, I take an Energy Sport Bar or a Nutritional Energy Gel and I get through it again.

Sport has been a key part of my life since I was a child. I spent years searching for the sport that would give me the most satisfaction. From dance, to judo, even to gymnastics and fitness. But nothing could match the feeling that running still gives me after all these years, time after time. I have found my release, my passion. A way to forget everything for a while and to prove to myself that I can do more than I ever thought I could.

Athletics
I am Stijn Fincioen and I have been doing athletics for over 25 years now. In addition to being an athlete, I am also a ‘Trainer A’ [top-level trainer] for middle distance/long distance. I now pass on my experience and knowledge to my athletes at Olympic Brugge and the West-Vlaamse Alliantie (WVA) I was already there when Etixx was launched and I feel particularly good with these products. They provide good support alongside my daily diet. In 2019, I became an Etixx ambassador. I am happy that, as an ambassador, I can share my experiences with other athletes so that they can prepare themselves optimally according to their personal goals.
