ATLANTA, Aug. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Supersapiens, the world's only real-time energy management system, designed for athletes to unlock better performance and recovery, adds Olympian Lucy Buckingham to its strong lineup of ambassadors. Supersapiens, powered by the Abbott Libre Sense Glucose Sport Biosensor, will work with Buckingham to deliver valuable insights to help with lasting positive behavior change and performance improvements.
Buckingham first began competing in triathlons at eight years old.

Since starting to integrate the Supersapiens ecosystem into her training and racing, Buckingham says, "With Supersapiens, I have been able to focus on and attribute both positive and negative parts of my performance to learnable points, which is really helping make a difference to my run."
Supersapiens develops innovative technology and insights around glucose data to help athletes to make more informed nutrition decisions around training and recovery. Supersapiens is the first energy management system designed for athletes to visualize the connection between their glucose levels, energy, and quickly learn the most beneficial intraday behavior adjustments to improve their performance and how they feel.
"We are proud to support such an inspiring athlete as Lucy. Having a Supersapiens ambassador of her caliber is a true testimonial to our system and further showcases how we are helping athletes achieve their goals," said Supersapiens CEO and Founder Phil Southerland.
Supersapiens launched to the public in September 2020.
