Our mission is to help as many people as possible achieve their athletic ambition.
We'll do this by striving to create the best athlete experience in the sports nutrition industry. One that athletes feel in their performance, their progression and their lives.
Here's how we remain committed to our mission:
By committing to science:
Our products must have a perceptible impact on your athletic progression.
To ensure this we meticulously scan human research, only using an ingredient when we have collected enough evidence showing it works to improve or support human performance.
By committing to human performance:
Blonyx is for people, like you, who train with purpose.
We are committed to providing simplicity, effective dosing and real-food ingredients whenever possible - all so you can perform at your best.
We aren't for people with purely aesthetic goals. It's just not in our DNA.
By committing to your athletic ambition:
You trust in us to help you get better at your sport.
To honour this trust, we strive to create the best post-purchase experience in sports nutrition. One that ensures you use our products effectively, receive value outside of our products and get all the support you need when you need it.

What is athletic ambition?
Whether it’s to race your first triathlon, compete in a functional fitness competition, ride that double black diamond or simply be able to play your sport as well as you can, for as long as you can - you have athletic ambition. YOU are an athlete!
OUR PROMISE TO YOU
Your athletic ambition is a very personal journey - it’s totally unique to you. It’s a pathway to becoming a stronger, more resilient version of yourself.
We want our athletes to have the best experience possible, not just from our products, but from us too. We pride ourselves on giving industry-leading pre and post-purchase support to ensure you are getting the most out of your investment with us.
We look forward to being a part of your journey.
Our story:
Blonyx was founded by Rowan Minnion, an athlete and exercise physiologist from the UK.
Early in Rowan’s career, his hard work gave him the opportunity to relocate to the US to play soccer and conduct research on sports nutrition products. Not long into his research, Rowan discovered that the majority of claims made by the supplements he used weren’t backed by science.
Rowan turned his eyes to the industry as a whole, and what he found shocked him. Sports nutrition is, to this day, virtually unregulated. Brands are free to sell products without evidence that they work to unsuspecting athletes, disregarding their trust.
Knowing how personally important pursuing an athletic goal is, Rowan set out to create a brand fully committed to helping people achieve their athletic goals. In 2011 Blonyx was born.
.
Today Rowan and his team’s obsession with sports science and a passion for helping others has establish Blonyx as a respected brand for people committed to their athletic ambition.
