Lee Priest Nutrition Athlete's
Just been talking with Andy Cunningham LPN (Lee Priest Nutrition) about sponsorship for some athlete's.

Because I have been supplying Lee his Tanning Colour for many years, I am also offering product sponsorship inconjunction with LPN to all their competing athlete's as well.
This, I hope will give them some extra support when competing.

Andy tells me they are already signing up some great competitors.
The first 3 that have been choosen are:

2009 IFBB champion Victor Dmitriyev NSW
Natural Olympia Champion Clare Ross VIC
Nabba Champion Esther Alexander QLD

Good luck to these guys, well done I hope you have a great 2010

It's always been Lee's plan to give back somehow to the Australian bodybuilding community. Now with Lee Priest Nutrition, he will be able to do exactly that. He knows all too well, how hard it is to get a sponsor at times, and even more so when you're an amature. He is very proud to sponsor these 3 athletes and looking forward to have the company grow. This will enalbe him to assist more in the future.

We are very excited and looking forward to the official launch at the Australian Pro. Tony puts on a fantastic show and this is the perfect venue to introduce the line of products to the general public.

Great of Lee to do this. And good to see him spreading the love across federations.

We'll be hanging around for the launch to get a swag of free samples. Right? :)

We do not discriminate. Every athlete, no matter which federation they belong to, deserves a chance.
We are looking forward to seeing more of the Australian talent at the Pro show.
Good luck to you guys.... my best wishes to you and I hope all your hard work pays off.

Sweetie if the worst happens which it won't cause you always get shredded and look amazing, sledge, Girlymuscle and I are taking you out to eat afterwards and give you lots of laughs! A good night out will be the icing on the cake to the show! :hmn:
But remember, you are competing against yourself and as long as you give it 110% then you are a winner Alex!

Sponsoring athletes was a great thing for Lee to do...all Pros should do this.

Hi MsGuns:)..... Lee has always said if and when he's able to... he would want to do that. Especially here in Australia. Most athletes don't get the recognition until they've made it... and it's a struggle to get there if you don't have the right support behind you

Hi Rhaine (like your name)...sponsorship sounds good to me. These competitors will go far.

Question for Rhaine;

tell us how these three lucky people were selected? We're they referred to you? How did they stand out from other prospects?

We were told about them. Took a look at them and really liked what we saw. But having won shows is not a prerequisite. If Lee sees potential ... even if you've only done one show... he'll give you a chance. We'll be searching for more talent as time goes on. But we will also be looking into other sports. Lee doesn't see a reason to just sponsor one sport when there are many other deserving athletes out there

AVBG
02-22-2010, 03:48 PM
Great answer Rhaine. Can you give us here a sneak peak of what types of supps will be available? Protein isolate, fat burners, creatine? And what will make Lee's brand unique?

THE BEST DAMN GURU
02-23-2010, 03:42 AM
There will be a WPI... Mass Builder...and Fast Acting Fatburner protien. As well as a pre and post workout product.
The difference... when Lee says it will be a high qaulity product, it will be j exactly that. No shit in it ... why pay for something saying it's great but is made out of milk products ... He knows how hard people work and to waste money on something that only tastes great but has no signicant benefit ... Not what he wants to be known for. So you'll pay a bit more, but you are also getting the best on the market.

Aside from the normal supp shop outlets are the products also going to be a available online? Like an e-commerce/store?

meh.. only if I'm interested, and the supp industry in Aus is interesting - getting a view of how it works here.

One of the beautiful things that came of the split with the former sponsor was Lee being able to see how far his reputation stuck - both local and abroad. Everyone knows he ain't interested in releasing product he wouldn't himself use..the best endorsement.

we need more people like Lee in the bodybuilding community who give back to the sport and not just take from it as many pro bodybuilders do.

THE BEST DAMN GURU

Not a slight against you Alex:). It's great knowing there is interest in the company and products. We will all be working very hard to make sure it succeeds. As for the former sponsor.... April Jacobs started with a great product. And the product is still good. Lee was proud being able to put his name to it. But with the new ownership of said company, let's just say issues arose because Lee is starting his own line. Just glad we have it written in the contract. So we'll see how things turn out.

Pretty bas ass! Congrats on getting the new line up and running. Is Lee going to be sponsoring any American based athletse, or is he going to be sticking to Australian athletes exclusively?

At some point the company will. But let's get the product on the shelves first:) ... It will happen in the future but for now, going to concentrate on making it a success here then move forward.

Rhaine.. Tell me something, with the likes of Vic D.. I reckon you guys should get him online either here or Lee's board on MD to start posting to lift his profile at the same time. I've met him a few times and he seems like a really good guy (I was about to say kid, lol) and he'd represent really well. He posts occasionally on other sites, might be time for him to step it up? An endorsed athlete has no issues in getting out there for the sponsor.

You are so far the only one that didn't like LPN when Lee was part of it. It's no longer that either... but thx for the critique. Especially since you prob never used it :-).
Assassin is even better and we cant get higher quality.
