Success Stories – Alexandria Hein
Sports Nutrition products are helping people of all ages perform their best. Just ask high school track standout Alexandria Hein, daughter of Sarah and Derek Hein (Senior Executive Coordinators, WI). Check out Alexandria’s cool story!
I’ve used Shaklee products almost all my life, and as I got older I started to understand why my parents chose Shaklee. I wasn’t in daycare all day everyday like my friends, my parents had flexibility, and we were fortunate to go on some awesome Shaklee trips! Another reason is the people. The Shaklee crew is my second family. They’re such positive, healthy, energetic people, with big hearts and dreams.
The other reason I love Shaklee is for its Sports Nutrition line. I love to run and wouldn’t have accomplished as much as I have without my Shaklee products. I have a whole routine down for each of my races. I start out by drinking Performance® on a race day to make sure I have enough electrolytes in my body. Along with other Shaklee products, I also take my new favorite product – Shaklee Energy™ chews*! Then I use Shaklee Physique® after races and workouts. With Physique I know I’ll be ready to get right back at it the next day without being sore.
Little did I know people were taking notice of my routine! One by one my teammates would ask me, “Are you eating Starbursts® before your race?” And I would tell them about my awesome Energy chews. I had practically all of my girls’ team on some kind of Shaklee Sports Nutrition™ product by the middle of the season!
During my four years in track and cross country I ran a total of about 4,000 miles, went through about 320 gallons of Performance and 64 gallons of Physique. I know the products work and they helped me reach my goals. I was blessed to compete at the state track meet in cross country three years in a row, and each year I lowered my time. And in my last race at state during my senior year I had my best time ever!
