ZES Sports & professional soccer: How Daniel Maderner and Jakob Meierhofer from GAK benefit from innovative biotechnology

Soccer is more than just a sport - it is passion, team spirit and top performance. Every sprint, every duel and every goal is the result of countless hours of training, mental strength and the constant striving for improvement. In order to always give their best on the pitch, professional athletes today no longer rely solely on traditional training, but also on state-of-the-art technologies that support regeneration, performance and protection.

This is exactly where ZES Sports comes into play. With our innovative, patented biotechnology, we have made it our mission to accompany athletes on their way to new successes. We are therefore particularly pleased that two GAK players, Daniel Maderner and Jakob Meierhofer, are now part of #TeamZES and are testing our products and using them in everyday life.

Who are Daniel Maderner and Jakob Meierhofer?

Daniel Maderner and Jakob Meierhofer are not only talented soccer players, but also important pillars of the GAK team.

  • Daniel Maderner is known for his goal threat, his assertiveness in the penalty area and his ability to be on hand at crucial moments.

  • Jakob Meierhofer shines with his overview, technique and understanding of the game - a player who steers the game and holds the team together.

Both professionals know this: In order to consistently deliver top performances in Austria's 2nd division, body and mind have to work together perfectly. Small differences can make the difference between victory and defeat.

The challenges of professional athletes

Professional sport is an enormous strain on the body. Not only the training itself, but also the many games, travel and mental pressure put a strain on the players.
Typical challenges are:

  • High physical exertion - intensive training and games several times a week

  • Risk of injury - due to duels, sprints and changes of direction

  • Regeneration - the body needs time to recover

  • Mental strength - concentration, focus and stress management are crucial

  • Invisible stress - such as electromagnetic fields (electrosmog), which can have an impact on the nervous system

The latter point in particular is often underestimated: More and more studies indicate that electromagnetic fields can have an influence on the human organism - and therefore also on performance, sleep quality and regeneration.

How ZES Sports starts here

The ZES Bodyguard technology was developed to protect the body from the effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF). Our biotechnology works at cellular level and helps the body to stay in balance.

Advantages for athletes:

  • Improved regeneration: less fatigue after training and games

  • More energy: the body can make better use of its resources

  • Better sleep: deeper and more restful sleep promotes regeneration

  • Mental clarity: more focus and concentration in crucial game situations

  • Holistic protection: minimizing exposure to electrosmog, e.g. in the stadium, when travelling or through technical devices

Why ZES Sports is indispensable in professional sport

In modern professional soccer, no details are left to chance. Clubs invest in nutrition experts, sports psychologists, data analysis - and now also in technologies that counteract the invisible stress factors .

Electrosmog is omnipresent:

  • In the team bus with WLAN and cell phones

  • In the hotel room with electronic devices

  • On the pitch with floodlights, radio technology and transmission equipment

This constant strain can weaken the body. ZES Sports ensures that the body does not have to expend its energy unnecessarily against these stressors, but can use it for performance, regeneration and mental strength .

A look behind the scenes: How players use ZES Sports

Daniel Maderner and Jakob Meierhofer use ZES Sports products both in everyday life and during training. They are very easy to use:

  • ZES Sports Band: a wristband you can wear around the clock

  • ZES Bodyguard Card: A protection card in check card format for on the go

  • ZES Recovery Pad: For better sleep and faster regeneration at night

Through continuous use, they can test how their performance parameters, sleep quality and subjective well-being improve.

Statements from the players 

"As a professional athlete, you try a lot of things to get the last percent out of your performance. We were immediately impressed by the technology from ZES - it's easy to use and gives us a good feeling."
- Daniel Maderner

"Every hour of sleep counts, especially during the regeneration phase. We are excited to see how ZES Sports can help here."
- Jakob Meierhofer

Conclusion: More than just a product - a new era in sport

The collaboration with Daniel Maderner and Jakob Meierhofer shows: ZES Sports is ready to take the next step and make a lasting change to professional sport. It's not about a short-term trend product, but a holistic solution that has been developed on a scientific basis and tested at universities.

With ZES Sports, athletes focus on innovation, prevention and performance optimization - values that are more important today than ever before.
