Vita

Matthias Steiner, "World's Strongest Man 2008-2012," Olympic, World and European weightlifting champion, today a successful entrepreneur in the nutrition and fitness sector, founder of STEINERfood GmbH, and author and motivational speaker. Born in Vienna, he changed his citizenship after disputes with his federation and competed for Germany at the Olympic Games in Beijing in 2008. With 461 kilograms in the Olympic total, he won gold and made history. But the road there is not an easy one: at the age of 18, the athlete is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Despite this, he manages to become one of the world's best weightlifters. In 2013, Steiner drops out of professional sports and loses 45 kilos. He succeeds in making the leap from professional athlete to entrepreneur. As a nutrition expert, he writes 2 bestsellers ("The Steiner Principle") and in 2020 founds STEINERfood GmbH, which develops and sells low-carb foods for healthy everyday life. He knows how to motivate himself again and again and to push things forward, because: "Limits only exist in the mind".

The Steiner Principle - From Heavyweight to Feel-good Ego
As an Olympic champion, Matthias weighed 150 kg to be able to compete against the world's elite in the super heavy weight class. After his professional sports career, he no longer needed this "working" weight and so he lost 45 kg within a year. For many people, this was an admirable step because it was difficult to achieve. But even more unimaginable to many is the fact that Matthias has maintained this weight ever since. "It's not hard," Matthias counters, "you just need to know how your metabolism works, which foods are good for you and which are not, what kind of exercise is suitable for you, then anyone can achieve their feel-good weight and feel fit again in everyday life." He has already delighted audiences in more than 70 lectures, which are a kind of reading with entertainment show elements. Even health insurance companies and large corporations, as part of their corporate health management, book the nutrition and fitness expert to teach their customers and employees a more conscious lifestyle in a charming way.
