Frequently Asked Questions

At Neapharma, we combine our superior sports nutrition with our own free Fuel Plan App. Utilize the same tools as the professionals, thanks to coach & Performance Manager Kristof De Kegel. The app generates a personalized nutrition plan in seconds.

The nutrition plan tells you hour by hour and kilometer by kilometer what you should eat and drink, entirely tailored to yourself and your goals. Thus, your nutrition plan will look entirely different when you go for a training ride or attempt to break a personal best. This app is also suitable for competitive cyclists.

Kristof De Kegel, the Head of Performance at the renowned cycling team Alpecin-Deceuninck and the women’s team Fenix-Deceuninck, is also the passionate exercise physiologist behind the innovative Neapharma products. Among the list of athletes are Mathieu van Der Poel, Wout Van Aert, Puck Pieterse, and Stijn De Volder.

Together with sports dietitian Kjell De Potter, Kristof consistently strives for the ultimate support of athletes through the development and testing of cutting-edge supplements and their application. Kristof and Kjell are also the developers of the Free Fuel Plan App, where you can create your own sports nutrition plan by combining 6 carbohydrates with each other.

“Our products are specially developed to optimally support endurance efforts in any sport. Based on the unique demands of crossfit, our Pro-Leucine and Pro-Elite Recovery shake, alongside our drinks and bars for short-term and long-term energy needs, and our gels for short-term energy requirements, can be a particular aid to get the most out of your workouts. They ensure maximum (re)building of your muscles and prepare you optimally for your next strength effort.

We strongly recommend leucine instead of creatine because the latter can only be used for 3 to 4 weeks before losing its effectiveness. Leucine, on the other hand, improves your overall fitness even with prolonged use (beyond 3 weeks). Additionally, Leucine is healthier and more effective in the long term for muscle building and recovery.”

Yes, Neapharma is suitable for athletes in various sports, not just cyclists. The products offered by Neapharma, including energy gels, recovery shakes, isotonic drinks, and other supplements, are designed to meet the needs of athletes in different disciplines. Whether you’re a runner, a crossfit athlete, or involved in other sports, Neapharma products can be tailored to support your energy, recovery, and nutritional requirements. Each athlete may have specific needs, and Neapharma’s Fuel Plan App can assist in personalizing nutrition plans based on individual parameters.

We collaborated extensively with Wout when he rode for various Belgian teams. Together with his former Sniper Team, we refined the composition of our bars and gels. Wout was particularly involved in formulating the Pro-Elite Recovery Shake. His contribution ensured that you won’t retain moisture despite all the proteins, minerals, and vitamins – a crucial feature in a recovery shake for sports performance. Thanks to the shake, all harmful substances, such as lactic acid, are eliminated.

We collaborated during the period when Mathieu discovered his strength on the road. Mathieu, three-time world champion Sanne Cant, and the entire Corendon team extensively used and contributed to the further development of our products. During that time, we found that using the Pro-Elite Recovery for an extended period also leads to increased strength and wattage, thanks to the thorough recovery that follows the shake.

We maintain a close connection with this team, as Kristof De Kegel, co-owner of Neapharma, also serves as the performance manager for the Alpecin-Fenix cycling team.
