Meet Barbara: An Inspiring Athlete

Hi there,

Today we want to introduce you to Barbara. She’s not only an athlete; she’s also a full-time doctor, a mom, and the current Masters European Champion in Vertical Running.

A Journey of Dedication

Sport has always been part of her life, but it was after the birth of her child that she decided to take it seriously. Instead of cheering from the sidelines, she wanted to be at the start line – to inspire her kids and her patients. For Barbara, movement isn’t just exercise – it’s the best form of prevention. That’s why she makes time for training alongside her work and family. Bit by bit, she built consistency, and it paid off: a European Championship title, showing that even a late start can lead to great achievements.

The Power of Data

But Barbara wanted more than just “training.” As a doctor, she values structure and clear feedback. That’s what led her to Afasteryou. With the Powertest, she learned about her VO₂max, carb and fat usage, and metabolism – turning effort into measurable progress. These insights help her not only as an athlete but also in her work with others. Because real data means real change.

Authenticity and Balance

What inspires us most about Barbara isn’t perfection, but her authenticity and dedication. She shows that balancing work, family, and sport is possible – if you have the courage to start.
