Nutrition is essential for athletic performance.
Food is fuel:
- No food = no energy
- No energy = poor performance
- Poor performance = frustration, anger, sadness, disappointment.

Any serious athlete will tell you that nutrition plays a pivotal role in performance. The STRONGFAST nutrition bar is scientifically formulated to help youth athletes get the nutrition they need to perform their best when they need to most.
You put so much into helping your kid succeed. Don’t let poor nutrition undo all the time, effort, and hard work your kid puts into their dream.

Nothing is better than seeing your child succeed.
You'll do anything to help your son or daughter do their best. You'll stay up late, get up early, drive them everywhere, spend money on equipment, book private lessons... the list goes on. Why do you put yourself through it?
Because nothing is better than the joy on your kid's face when their hard work pays off.
Is nutrition holding your kid back?
Most kids don't get proper nutrition. This isn't news. But youth athletes face particular challenges when it comes to getting proper nutrition.
Kids who are playing in weekend tournaments with three, four, or five games in a weekend and are practicing multiple days per week on top of that often find their fuel in one of three ways:
- Gas station food, concession stands, and drive-thrus
- Sugary sports drinks
- Energy drinks
Fast food and concessions don't typically offer healthy or nutritious options. Some sports drinks contain up to 200% of the daily recommended value of added sugars in a single bottle. And energy drinks are flat out dangerous for youth athletes.
Time, energy, and availability make it harder than ever for youth athletes to get the healthy fuel they need to be their best. Colleges and professional sports pay millions of dollars to ensure their athletes have the right nutrition. Our kids deserve proper nutrition too.

This is where STRONGFAST comes in.
We've developed a nutritional bar based on the most current FDA recommendations for 8-15 year old athletes. The formula has been reviewed by nutritionists, pediatricians, and neuroscientists because parents and coaches should feel absolutely confident in what they are putting in their athlete’s bodies. Ingredients should be great for you, with no fluff. Nothing artificial. Nothing grown in a lab. Here are the highlights:
- The bar is gluten free, lactose free, non-GMO, preservative free, and free from any and all artificial colors, sweeteners, or flavors.
- The bar tastes delicious, because flavor matters more to kids than it does to adults.
- The bar is big, but not too big. Many bars for kids are more like snack bars for lunch boxes. They're too small to fuel athletic performance. Protein bars for adults are often too big or have high levels of certain macronutrients that can cause stomach problems.
We're ready to get these bars into sports bags across the country.
After a year of research and development, more than five rounds of prototypes, and reviews from food scientists, neuroscientists, pediatricians, and nutritionists, we're ready to get the STRONGFAST nutrition bar into mass production:
- We conducted a nation-wide search and spent hours in interviews and have found a co-manufacturer in Florida who has the experience, quality certifications, and passion for our project that we need to get the bars mass produced to our standards of quality.
- The nutrition bar is gluten free, lactose free, non-GMO, preservative free, and free from any and all artificial colors, sweeteners, or flavors. We couldn't have just anyone produce it!
- Every penny we make through this campaign will go to our initial order of product.

Every project has its share of risks. The greatest risk in a project like this is scale. Food products like this really work best when they are being mass produced. Co-manufacturers are set up for orders of 10,000,000 easier than 10,000. The larger our order, the less our costs, the more affordable we can make the bars to consumers.
