Valerie Smith was a standout volleyball player at Adrian College and a member of Team USA’s volleyball squad in 2010. And since making the transition from volleyballer to bobsled athlete, the Wyandotte, Michigan native has continued to progress and impress athletically. Smith’s next major challenge: compete at the 2018 Winter Olympics.
“I love [bobsled] and have realized that if you focus on what you really want to do there is nothing that can stop you from getting there,” she told us.
Understanding that the journey to the Olympics will be a long and arduous task, Smith has developed a hardcore plan of attack.
“During the off-season I train five to six days per week anywhere from three to five hours per day,” she said. “In-season I’m training six days per week about eight to 10 hours per day.”
She trusts P4’s trio of NSF Certified for Sport workout supplements — Pre Game Formula, Energy Formula, and Recovery Push Formula — to keep her energy levels high and recovery on track.
“I use Pre Game Formula and Energy Formula to get me through my long workouts,” Smith explained. “And since recovery is a big thing for me, I use Recovery Push Formula so I am able to give 100 percent to my next workout.”
Of course, since Pre Game Formula, Energy Formula, and Recovery Push Formula are free of banned substances screened by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), supplementation is one less thing for Smith to worry about en route to accomplishing her goal.
“Since I can be tested [for banned substances] it helps knowing P4 products are safe and clean, and that I know what’s going into my body,” Smith said.
