Interaction between training & optimal nutrition
Jonas grew up in an athletic family in the Siegerland region, so sports were a part of his life from an early age. Running, in particular, inspired him, but cycling and swimming were also among his passions. Today, he is a triathlete. What he loves most about this discipline is the variety of the three different sports, the challenge, and the fact that he can practice them outdoors in nature.
Long distances, such as those common in the Half-IRONMAN or IRONMAN, require nutrition that is perfectly tailored to his training. Carbohydrate-rich foods that are also gluten-free have proven particularly effective.
In recent years, he has learned that he can only achieve peak performance if he gives his body the right "fuel." Therefore, he eats a mostly plant-based, carbohydrate-rich, gluten-free, and, whenever possible, organic diet.

In the fast lane
Sport has always been one of Jörg Scheiderbauer's passions. Movement and feeling his own body are his elixir of life. Jörg started his athletic career on a mountain bike and was able to win the Bike Transalp in the mixed team category three times in a row. In 2008, he discovered triathlon for himself, and by 2010, he had already qualified for the Ironman in Hawaii. "I am particularly proud of my second place at the Ironman in Dubai, my 3rd place at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship in Nice, and my fourth place at the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii in 2019 with my personal best time of 9:04:25," Jörg tells us in his engaging, dynamic manner.
The literal translation of Ironman is iron man. Through intensive training, alternated with sufficient rest phases, great discipline, and a balanced, enjoyable diet, Jörg has fought his way back to the world elite. "It is extremely important to enjoy your sport, because fun is a prerequisite for the peak performances that participating in an IRONMAN demands," says Jörg.
To keep up with this ambitious lifestyle, Jörg and his wife Alexandra do a lot to keep body and mind in harmony. You can find tips on this here.
Passionate triathlete
Dominik discovered his passion for sports at an early age and, via football, endurance, and strength training, ultimately found his way to triathlon.
This sport demands everything from the body in terms of strength, endurance, and willpower.
To meet the demands of such rigorous training, an adapted diet is necessary. Therefore, Dominik makes sure to provide his body with the essential nutrients needed to achieve peak performance.
A sufficient intake of carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats plays a central role in optimizing energy balance and supporting recovery after intense training sessions. Moreover, a balanced diet not only contributes to increased performance but also promotes general health and well-being.
