GNC and TV Personality Jay Glazer Launch New Premium Supplement Line, UNBREAKABLE PERFORMANCE™ Fueled by GNC
Portion of proceeds to benefit Glazer's nonprofit MVP helping veterans and athletes overcome mental health challenges, with GNC matching up to $100,000
PITTSBURGH, Dec. 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Global health and wellness brand GNC today launched an all-new line of clean supplements in partnership with Jay Glazer, TV personality and owner of the Unbreakable Performance Center, a gym known for training celebrity and elite athletes alike. Combining GNC's proven experience in science-backed supplements with Glazer's relentless commitment to training and recovery, the new UNBREAKABLE PERFORMANCE™ Fueled by GNC product line delivers transparent, certified Banned Substance Free1 by Informed Choice formulas that prioritize physical performance that is important for mental health.
Beyond its cutting-edge training and recovery product formulas, UNBREAKABLE PERFORMANCE™ also backs a united mission between GNC and Glazer to support the nation's veterans, using fitness as a tool to transition them to civilian life. GNC carries that mission out through its Live Well Foundation and Glazer through his nonprofit, Merging Vets & Players (MVP). Guided by that shared purpose, a portion of UNBREAKABLE PERFORMANCE™ product proceeds will go toward MVP with a commitment from GNC to match those contributions up to $100,000 during the month of December.
"In the Unbreakable family, we support our teammates and always have each other's backs," said Glazer. "With GNC in my corner—a pioneer in the sports nutrition industry that continues to drive innovation—it was a no-brainer to create a clean product line that's full of everything you need and nothing you don't. Launching this product line with GNC has been a deeply meaningful moment for the Unbreakable community and everyone touched by our mission through the incredible MVP program."
Both GNC and Glazer are confident that this is only the beginning of the UNBREAKABLE PERFORMANCE™ journey.
"Our partnership with Jay has been fueled by the mutual passions for full mind and body wellness and the shared experience as leaders in the health and fitness space since day one," said Ryan Ostrom, Chief Brand Officer, GNC Holdings, Inc. "It's our common pursuit to Live Well and inspire others to find their inner champion, achieve personal success and to ultimately help cultivate the talented leaders of tomorrow."
