NL: Why did you choose to partner with NeoLife?
FRANCOIS: “For me, NeoLife offers more of a holistic approach to wellness. It’s not just supplementing to boost sports performance―it’s about a lifestyle where I do what is good for my body for the long term… NeoLife fits perfectly into my active lifestyle and is a seamless extension to my fitness routine.”
NL: What does the NeoLife Difference mean to you?
FRANCOIS: “I am very strict when it comes to what I put into my body. As a professional sportsman I won’t settle for anything less than the best. NeoLife is just that. Probably the most important aspect of supplementing for me is doing it safely. NeoLife Nutrition is wholefood based and I can trust that what they say on the label is backed by their flawless reputation. I really like that the ingredients are based in nature.”
NL: What are your go-to products?
FRANCOIS: “I take Pro Vitality, NeoLifeShake, NeoLifeBar, Vitamin C and Cal-Mag with D daily. I love the convenience of the Pro Vitality and the NeoLifeShake packets. The products have definitely made a huge difference in my recovery after high intensity cardio and weight training, and also keeps my immune system strong.* It’s crucial for me to be in top form so that I can keep up a 6-day a week training schedule. Playing internationally means there is no off season and that I have to cope with jetlag and severe weather changes. NeoLife products keep me in top form, come rain or shine – they really work. I can’t wait to get my hands on the new NeoLife SPORT!”
NL: What advice would you give to someone looking to get in shape?
FRANCOIS: “Looking good and feeling better can’t be achieved with fad diets or unrealistic fitness goals. I believe that we all need to be consistently looking after our bodies. Creating healthy eating habits, incorporating regular exercise and supplementing in areas where our modern diet fails is the only way to better living.”
