The season 2023 is being the closest thing to hell for Marc Márquez, which has not yet managed to even score on a Sunday. A situationlimit which contrasts directly with the form of the eight-time world champion.
On this occasion, the pilot repsol hondathrough a documentary recorded by ‘Red Bull TV’, has opened up and commented on what day-to-day life is like for one of the most awarded riders in the history of motorcycling.
One of the topics that Catalan has dealt with the most has been the difference between his the beginning and the present. This is because, in his early years, his great state of shape was based solely on work out in the bicycle and rest well. However, at 30 years old, she cannot take care of herself just like that.
“I have realized that I need to take care of my body more and more: control everything, do more physiotherapy sessions and all that stuff. Everything feels bigger”, commented Márquez.
Besides, Mark has had to deal with one of the momentsmore difficult of his life: his injury. Something that served to get stronger: “The key was a positive mindset and having a routine. Motivation changes every day because some days you are very depressed“.
However the performance and the level of any pilot goes through his moments of disconnection and rest. Something that, for the Spanish, goes through the video game:”I am 30 years old but I play video games because I like it. It’s only an hour and a half before dinner, but I schedule it and It’s part of how I tune out“.
Márquez and his sleep problems
The hours of restas he assures marquezis “one of the most important things for an athlete“. Something with which the Catalan has always had issues and, therefore, he has had to put solution.
“Sometimes I take melatoninbut not in large quantities, only in amountsverylittle. If I do that, I can go ten hours and not have a problem there. When you have a hard time, why not?“, he comments.
Nevertheless, Marc MárquezHe is a world champion and, like every champion, he always wants to return to gain. Although, yes, he is clear about his clear objective: “My biggest goal is to return (to be competitive)”.
“Not many athletes in the past have gone three years injured and were able to come back. I want to go back and be competitive again and fight for championships“adds the ilerdense.
