Gold medal winner triumphs over injury

Gold Medal winning powerlifter says AstaSupreme helped him win a gold medal, then go on to set a Commonwealth record.

Nelson, New Zealand, August 08, 2012 –

Gold Medal winning Power-lifter Ron Prestage found his chronic shoulder pain was badly affecting his performance and training. So he started taking New Zealand made Natural Astaxanthin supplement ‘AstaSupreme’ after it was recommended to him and hasn’t looked back.

“The relief was apparent after a few days of taking Astaxanthin. My joint health and recovery from strenuous exercise has been great and I have continued to take the supplement and carry on with my competitive powerlifting.” States Ron.

He also gained a gold medal and set a Commonwealth Bench Press record at the Commonwealth Championships in Bournemouth, England.
