Klean Athlete announces partnerships with two credentialed coaching services

March 11, 2013 — Klean Athlete, the new line of NSF Certified for Sport nutritional supplements for athletes powered by Douglas Laboratories, recently announced their partnerships with Finish Strong Coaching and OutRival Racing — two of the largest credentialed coaching services in Texas.

The recent partnerships with Finish Strong Coaching and OutRival Racing mirror Douglas Laboratories’ 50-year commitment to provide science-based nutritional supplements by providing credentialed training services coaches, associations, and healthcare professionals with Klean Athlete products: designed specifically for athletes who want to reach peak performance through optimal health. Both coaching service partners are currently utilizing Klean Athlete supplements in conjunction with individualized training programs for their endurance athletes.

“The Klean Athlete Line is about enabling athletes to compete at their very best in a natural way,” says Timothy Monk, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Douglas Laboratories, a multiple marathon and triathlon finisher including the Ironman World Championships. “Klean Athlete nutritional supplements are first and foremost to be distributed through professional coaches, healthcare professionals, and credentialed coaching associations that recognize the need to create products which support — rather than enhance — peak performance.”

“The responsibility of ensuring our athletes are taking safe and effective nutritional supplements can be a heavy burden considering the number of products on the market that are not certified or free of banned substances,” says Head Coach Dana Lyons, founder of Finish Strong Coaching. “Our partnership with Klean Athlete has provided our coaches with the ability to stay true to our strategy, that training smarter drives the best results.”

“Klean Athlete gives our trainers a sense of comfort when recommending supplements that complement the unique training programs we have created for our athletes,” says Coach Michelle LaBlanc, founder of OutRival Racing. “With clean products that are NSF Certified for Sport, I have peace of mind that our athletes will compete at peak performance without anything standing in their way.”

The Klean Athlete line is composed of seven nutritional supplements created to provide a safe and effective foundation to live healthy, train smart and compete at the best possible level:

• Klean Multivitamin: A twice-daily tablet, which acts as the starting line for promoting overall health. The formulation is optimized for the athlete to give them the vital nutrients they need in smaller, more powerful doses, and nothing that they don’t need. Klean Multivitamin also contains a unique fruit and vegetable blend.
• Klean Antioxidants: Powered by the super fruit maqui berry, the anti-aging ingredient astaxanthin, as well as a patented combination of acetyl-L-carnitine and lipoic acid, these vegetarian capsules help guard against cellular damage that comes from intense training and helps maximize the long-term health of athletes, both young and seasoned.
• Klean Cognitive: Supports cognitive health with the same acetyl-L-carnitine and lipoic acid combination, as well as, a vegetarian alpha-CPG formula to support brain health — so the mind performs as well as the body.
• Klean Probiotic: Promotes digestive health so nutrients the body needs to perform (including those provided by other Klean products) can be properly absorbed into the bloodstream and is formulated to support immune response.
• Klean Isolate: No artificial flavors or sweeteners, just premium-quality whey protein isolate to help build and repair muscle.
• Klean Electrolytes: Replenishes important minerals in your patients’ bodies during or after exercise. The capsule formula allows users and HCPs to customize dosage according to any athlete’s training needs.
• Klean Endurance: A great tasting chew that supports the natural way the human body produces energy. This all-natural D-ribose supplement aims to help restore and replenish energy while supporting cardiac function and reducing fatigue.

The complete line of Klean Athlete products undergoes meticulous testing and verification process to receive the esteemed NSF Certified for Sport certification ensuring that each product is free of banned substances. Recognized by major sports organizations including the NFL, MLB, NHL, and PGA, the NSF Certified for Sport program was developed in response to the concerns of athletes, coaches, team owners, and others about finding banned substances in sports nutrition products.

Douglas Laboratories maintains outstanding quality control from start-to-finish for Klean Athlete ingredients and products. They are one of the few supplement providers who control manufacturing, packaging, and distribution, thus ensuring that the highest quality product reaches every athlete.
