Fat as Fuel — My Insights in DER SPIEGEL
I was recently featured in DER SPIEGEL in the article:
“Fifty Shades of Fett – und nicht alle sind böse”
(“Fifty Shades of Fat – and Not All Are Evil”)
The piece explores how body fat can be life-saving and performance-enhancing, using my English Channel swim as an example. I gained 7 kg of fat intentionally — not as a weakness, but as a strategy for survival and success, swimming for hours in freezing water without a wetsuit.
