Gymnasts are immortalised when a gymnastic move or routine is named after them. Every world-class gymnast has his or her own ideas about this. Including Epke. But knowing that his competitors will also be reading this, he cannot say much more than: “Watch me closely.”

We already knew that Epke is a hero. But now it's official, thanks to the most recent campaign Epke did with Le Coq Sportif. As you can see above, Epke is portrayed as a super hero. How cool is that?

If you work out intensively six days a week, it’s fair to say that you know your body pretty well. But Epke actually has formal anatomical knowledge, too. In addition to having a demanding athletic career, he also happens to be a med student.
