Martin “Rekkles” Larsson, a star of League of Legends, has teamed up with Nike to design personalized exercises for gamers through their app – Rekkles x Nike
Rekkles of KCorp is the third esports professional to team up with Nike. However, Nike has grown to be rather well-known in the esports industry in addition to Jian “Uzi” Zi-Ha and Felipe “brTT” Goncalves.
Nike and the LPL partnered for several years beginning in 2018, supplying players in the area with uniforms and even shoes. Then, in 2022, they teamed up with BLAST to produce a constrained line of streetwear clothing for Counter-Strike enthusiasts. August 19, 2022, marks the availability of the garment.
Rekkles x Nike is the most recent esports collaboration.
Leveling up requires effort. In a video posted on August 10, Rekkles declared, “The grind is no game. Everyone possesses power. Capturing your power and allowing it to flow through you when the situation demands it is the difficulty.
Rekkles x Nike partnership introduces esports-inspired workouts
For the game industry, Nike’s first European esports relationship is significant. A Rekkles component will be added to Nike’s app as a result of the relationship. Fans of the League can go through personalized fitness schedules and wardrobe recommendations in this section.
It is clear why they chose Rekkles for their first esports collaboration that focuses on physical activity. The renowned athlete has always liked sports and even participated in youth football. The software will include pre-planned workouts and guided runs in an effort to get other gamers moving.
“I have natural focus, but staying sharp takes drive and repetition. Power is work that pays off. If I make it look easy, it’s probably because I took the hard way to get there”

Practice alone won’t help you maintain attention or react quickly. Recent years have seen an increase in the importance of fitness and wellness for esports organizations, with teams like Rogue having fitness trainers and Team Liquid hiring a full-time chef.
