Javier Simón: how genetics, microbiota and mental training drive his motocross success

Motocross requires much more than talent and passion. The key to achieving high performance lies in knowing your body and mind in detail, and working in a personalised way to optimise every aspect of performance.

This has been the path of Javier Simón, a young rider who, at just 9 years old, has already demonstrated an outstanding track record in regional and national motocross. His progress is not only due to his natural abilities or hard work: it is also the result of a strategy based on science and specialised training, hand in hand with Overgenes and ARMental.

A promising start ... and an even brighter future

Javier’s story begins almost by chance at the age of 3, when he tried a kart for the first time in Recas. What started as a game ended up revealing his passion for motocross. Since the age of 7 he has been competing in official championships, winning titles in Madrid and Castilla La Mancha, and a runner-up spot in Castilla León.

Currently, he leads the Madrid championship in the 65cc category and already competes in national championship events, demonstrating constant growth.

What were they looking for with Overgenes and ARMental?

The goal was clear: not only to improve his sporting performance, but also to optimise his physical, mental and emotional health. To do this, Javier and his family relied on:

Overgenes:

MySport Test: to identify his sports genetic profile and optimise his training, recovery and nutrition.
MyMicrobiome Test: to analyse his intestinal microbiota, improve his digestion and overall health, eliminating the gastrointestinal problems he was suffering from.

ARMental:

Work with Biofeedback, Neurofeedback and NeuroTracker to improve her attention, reaction times, decision making, emotional regulation and adaptability in running.

The combination of genetics, microbiota and mental training created a unique action plan for Javier, allowing him to grow in a solid and sustainable way.

What changes have you seen?

The process has generated visible results in several areas:

Greater control and strategy in the race: he now manages key moments better, without acting impulsively.
Better rest and recovery: optimising his sleep and physical preparation rhythms.
Greater emotional resilience: you cope better with mistakes and maintain your concentration in pressure situations.
Gastrointestinal problems solved: thanks to the analysis and adjustment of their microbiota.
Overall improvement in his physical, technical and mental condition.

As his environment highlights: ‘Now he runs faster, but also with head, controlling the moments and knowing how to adapt to each situation’.
