Jeroen D'hoedt
I am Jeroen D'hoedt and my main sport is athletics (middle distance). In addition, I also enjoy a huge number of other sports including cycling, tennis, mountain biking, etc. I do these sports mainly in the ‘off season’ or as an alternative due to injury. 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!
My discipline
Athletics (3000 m steeplechase and cross) -> CABW
Number of hours’ training per week
14 hours
"One day I hope to be
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.
- Favourite sport bars: Energy Nougat Sport Bar, Energy Marzipan Sport Bar and Energy Sport Bar (chocolate)
- Favourite gels: Nutritional Energy Gel and Isotonic Energy Gel
My greatest sporting achievements
- Olympic Games Rio: 37th 3000 m steeplechase
- European Champion U20 XC
My personal records
- 1500m: 03:36:09
- 3000m steeplechase: 13:34:76
- 5000m: 08:30:03

Etixx has now been my sports nutrition partner for 1 year. With the help of their products, I have managed to gain an extra 4kg of muscle mass without gaining any fat. Etixx is very helpful in providing support on nutrition advice. The group of ambassadors is an extremely nice and tight group and I feel that all the ambassadors can count on each other.

Athletics (marathon)
I am a 25-year-old marathon runner with very big ambitions. Since the beginning of 2022, I have been living 100% as a professional athlete because of my contract with Topsport Defence. This gives me an excellent opportunity to get the most out of my sports career! I am also active as a coach within the Altius project of Runners' Lab Athletics Team and I enjoy delving into the world of stocks and real estate.

Triathlon
I am passionate about sports. Since I was little I admired professional athletes because I grew up in a family passionate about sports. When I started practicing triathlon, a sport that brought together three passions, I dreamed of being what I am now, and being able to participate in some Olympic Games. I feel fortunate to be part of the Etixx team, but above all, to maintain it over time and that they continue to trust me and my work. It is a luxury to work with a brand like this, which makes you feel valued and loved.
