Portrait of Augustin Maillefer
The novelist Augustin Maillefer is not the type to navigate murky waters: Portrait of the most Obwalden Vaud who knows high-level rowing.
When Augustin starts rowing a bit by chance at the age of twelve, invited by one of his brothers, he is a sporty child who still escapes the spirit of competition. He says it himself «In a way, I thought training was cheating».It will only take one lost regatta for him to abandon the taste of defeat in favor of the flavors of effort and victory. His current situation and his record willingly testify to this (see below).
Despite a very high level quickly reached in his discipline, the great teacher that is experience has once again proven to Augustin that any machine, however powerful it may be by nature (1.94m for 100kgs) is limited without the right tools. When we see the pace at which our athlete must face, - 2 to 3 daily workouts, bachelor of sports science in Lausanne - it seems obvious that you need the best fuels to be able to harangue them.
In the preamble to the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in 2016, Augustin therefore took the initiative to turn to Olivier Bourquin to put oil back in his engine. In total overtraining and in search of solutions, Olivier's nutritional program and BN Nutrition products have been a certain relief to our rower.
Since then, Augustin takes the BN NOW AND the AFTER daily as part of his workouts, the Spirulina BIO from our range, Krill, Maca, the BN Base for acid-base balance, the 3-2-1 for recovery, and the essential BN ENERGY.
His balance is clear: More desire, and greater ease in absorbing training.
In view of his qualification for the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, Augustin can be sure of one thing: Two letters will do everything they can to secure a Tokyo stamp on his list: Not O.B, but indeed BN.
