IT BEGAN WITH THE LEGEND

5% Nutrition was founded in 2014 by legendary bodybuilder Rich Piana. Our namesake conveys the same mentality Rich espoused: the willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve your goals. Thus, Rich believed that only 5% of all people were willing to sacrifice what it took to succeed at the next level.

It doesn't matter if your passions lay outside the weight room, as he firmly believed anyone could adopt the necessary mindset and discipline. And thus, the 5%ER and 5% MENTALITY was born!

IN HIS OWN WORDS

Rich Piana and 5% Nutrition, two names that have become synonymous in the sports nutrition world for hardcore performance. In the words of Rich, the "5% represents those of us [who] are willing to give whatever it takes to reach their goals."

Rich has been an inspiration to untold millions throughout his career both as a bodybuilder and later as a motivational figure. The allure of his message simple yet powerful: he was going to give anything and everything he had to reach his goals. Along the way, he was going to give adoring fans a front-row seat to the main event, his daily life, and in the process, amassed a huge YouTube and Instagram following.

Followers of Rich soon became accustomed to frequent motivational messages, mantras, workout techniques, nutrition, and meal preparation, plus a bevy of social commentary. The most recognizable aspect of his lifestyle, living the "5%'ER mentality" became the foundation of this company, 5% Nutrition.

THE COMPANY NOW

We exist as more than a supplement or apparel company; we've become a lifestyle representative worldwide of people who represent the brand and live the 5% lifestyle daily. Today, we maintain a broad range of premium quality products in most categories of the sports nutrition spectrum, from pre-workouts to support products and everything in between.

THE LEGEND CONTINUES

Since the founding of 5% Nutrition, Rich Piana has had the support of a loyal social media following, plus an entire office team. He knew what he did not know and wisely partnered with experts in sports nutrition and bodybuilding supplements, hiring industry experts and tapping consultants for their honest product feedback.

Much of Rich's team, which had been handpicked to run his sports nutrition and apparel empire, is still working under the 5% Nutrition banner. Rather than quit when we lost our leader, we took a page right from the book of Rich Piana, pushing through the pain of his loss in August 2017 to persevere and get reorganized around a future without our living legend. We work each day to develop new products and expand the existing product lineup, all while staying true to Rich's vision of the future, which he established when he founded the company.

You are the 5% Nation that defines the 5% Family we know, love, and respect.

Together, we are the 5% Nation.
