The Olympic Games are putting sports in the spotlight this summer. Jérémie Marsac's experience shows that sport and health are closely linked. Today, he has three watchwords: equip, educate and empower.

Give up? Never! A former swimmer, he never stops moving. Jérémie Marsac is Myodev's sports approach, and he's a partner in the company (witness the line-up of demo videos in which he appears, like a sports coach from the 80s). He spent ten years swimming competitively, including six in South Africa, before becoming an engineer. And, like the rest of the team, he has experienced the cold shower of injury.
He began to perceive movement differently following a shoulder problem, a direct compensation for scoliosis. " That was the paradox, " he explains during a good old-fashioned brainstorming session. " It was through movement that I injured myself, and it was by changing that movement that I healed myself."
Rethinking movement
Let's leave aside for a moment the technical aspects and the code (he does that very well, we'll leave the computer gibberish to François and him). Jérémie's legitimacy comes entirely from his sporting background. "I think we've all been there a bit. When you're injured, you ask yourself questions about your body and you gradually learn to understand it." Who's going to deny that?
Healthcare professionals, like fitness influencers, are the usual and modern recourse for patients. Faced with this dynamic, he sees the opportunity to empower patients to take the initiative. To fulfill this mission, there are three key words: equip, educate and empower.
Multidisciplinary
Jérémie is a bit like our Swiss Army knife at Myodev, and he sees this as a real strength: " I was trained [to be a Swiss Army knife] and that's what makes me tick, when the fields are cross-disciplinary". It's what gives him an innovative point of view, like his colleague François. For him, it's this novelty that can help both physiotherapists and patients. " When you bring in a new tool, you have to think in a more contextual way, and that means less protocol. You ask yourself other questions.
In the end, as he juggled his different hats, Jérémie also saw new questions take shape. From sportsman to healthcare engineer, it was not just one step, but a succession of lessons. Edison once said that " our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The surest way to succeed is always to try again". What if, rather than trying again, it was a matter of asking the right questions?
