On sunny days, you naturally want to enjoy it without restraint! But how can you practise sports without putting yourself at risk? We tell you all!
Today I’m with Caroline Chambon, prevention project manager at the Northern Departmental Committee of the League against Cancer. Although light brightens our day, UV rays have other effects... so how can you protect yourself properly? What preconceived notions still exist about sun protection? Find yourself a little dark corner, you’ll find the answers in this episode.
Are you protected from the sun under an umbrella or under water, and can you get a tan while using a sunscreen?
These are really interesting questions! We’ll let you test your general knowledge with this little quiz we’ve prepared for you.
We know that sports enthusiasts love indoor as well as outdoor sports, especially when the good weather comes rolling back in!

Decathlon sunscreens are ideal for whatever sport you practise - find out why:
"When we think of a suncare product, we always start off with its use. What purpose will it serve, and for whom and when will it be used?
At the same time, we have strong biases: we want suncare products that have the least impact on users and the environment.
This is why our suncare products should not present a constraint for users, they should able to be forgotten while you’re doing sport.
To this end, a whole team of decathletes works to design and develop a suncare range that optimally meets your needs:a product lead, chemical engineer, pharmacist, subcontracted facilitator, graphic designer: all working in close collaboration with laboratories and suppliers! Whether we’re talking about creams today, for tomorrow or the future, they’re made to meet your needs.
We’d like to see sun protection become a pleasure! "
