"My colleagues may laugh at me standing there with my green bottle, calling it ‘longevity.’ But I’m the one smiling when they’re walking around with bloated stomachs after croissants."
Anders Mielke is 27. A former professional cyclist. Today, he’s a journalist, host, and commentator for Eurosport - both in Denmark and internationally. He’s the kind of person who juggles a lot at once and thrives on it. But that hasn’t always been the case.
"I thrive in motion - but I’ve learned that calmness isn’t the same as inactivity. Stillness can be an achievement in itself. And it starts with having a purpose for the day - waking up and knowing why I do what I do.”
There have been periods when Anders lost track of his training - and of what it means to feel “on track.” Times when he burned himself out with work and the many hats he had to wear each day, draining his mental energy.
"I did my first Giro in 2022 without running shoes - and gained six or seven kilos. We were sitting and eating constantly. I learned the hard way how important it is to get your heart rate up. It sharpens me - not just physically, but mentally. Whether I’m covering a race, preparing interviews, or something entirely different, it starts with the body. When I feel physically strong, the mind follows. Maybe that’s the elite athlete in me, but for me, Aioss is a no-brainer. If something helps me perform better - I’m all in.”
For Anders, it’s not about being a health freak. He might not know every single ingredient in aioss by heart - but he doesn’t need to. What matters is that it works. aioss has become a kind of anchor in an otherwise hectic and unpredictable daily life. When everything else is moving fast, there’s at least one thing he can count on: with aioss, he’s putting something good into his body - and that brings a sense of calm from the very start of the day.
"When everything else is out of my hands, I know at least one thing: I’ve given my body something good from the start - and that gives me peace."
