The
Destriero ship won the prestigious Blue Ribbon award in 1992 for
the beating of the world speed record in transatlantic crossing
- the 67-meter, gas turbine-powered vessel averaged 53.1 knots during
a non-refueled passage from New York to England. The record is still
unbeaten. It was definitely one of the most extraordinary exploits
in the recent history of Italian sports. |

It is no mere coincidence, then, that was specifically developed for the needs of the Destriero
crew. And surely their extraordinary achievement owes something
to this 'magical potion'.

The
Destriero ship - 67 m long, 13 m wide, 50.000 horsepower, 110 Km/h
maximum speed. During navigation, such a "monster" can
turn the smallest human error into tragedy. Another reason why the
crew had to be always at the highest possible level of concentration. |

How can you - with the help of science but without
using any drugs - keep your physical state and alertness at the
highest possible level, for days and nights on end - as did the
crew of the Destriero ship, during their successful attempt to
beat the world record for the Atlantic crossing?

We have stolen from the supermen of the record-winning
ship "Destriero" the secrets of the diet to be always
'revved up' and at the same time keep fit; we also give you precious
tips to help you face all those challenging situations of everyday
life at your best physical and mental condition - and at the same
time get fit and lean.

Sharp eyesight, perfect concentration, continuous
alertness, toned muscles, an excellent physical conditions for
days and nights on end - these were the requirements for the 'mariners'
of Destriero, the Italian ship that challenged the Atlantic crossing
record. Such extraordinary qualities were necessary to face incredibly
high waves, strong adverse winds, and hundreds of stormy miles.
|
|
|
How
could these 'super-mariners' reach such an outstanding physical
condition and keep their attention and reflexes quick and ready
for hours and hours on end? Where did they find the energies to
resist the fatigue of such an extraordinary challenge? |
|
|
It's
a question that goes beyond curiosity or a mere interest in sports.
We all wish we could be able to face long car journeys without feeling
sleepy or tired, or to keep alert and concentrated while studying
for exams, or to carry out any hard or stressful work with all our
energies, and in general to be able to make it through all the other
countless circumstances of life that demand the most of our physical
and mental energies. And wouldn't it be great if while feeling stronger
and more energetic we could also get fit and slim like the Destriero
men... |
