MusclePharm Named No. 1 Supplement Brand In 2011 By Top Supplement Website

DENVER, Jan. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MusclePharm Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("MusclePharm" or the "Company") (OTCBB: MSLP), an expanding U.S. nutritional supplement company, is pleased to announce that is has been named the No. 1 supplement brand in the industry for 2011 by Stack3d.com, a leading supplement website.

With rankings based on "quality, price, results, availability and overall greatness," according to the website, MusclePharm beat out numerous other top companies for the best overall brand award in 2011 in what was a banner year for the growing company.

In the rankings, MusclePharm was ranked ahead every other company regarding performance, effort and improvement as it continues to grab a bigger market share at a remarkable rate, thanks in part to tremendous medical-team backing.

In the review, Stack3d.com, a popular supplement news site, had the following glowing statements regarding MusclePharm and its products:

"Trying to make a good supplement that had no banned substances was thought to be impossible. MusclePharm has made an entire supplement line out of products you can count on. Jack3d is no more; Assault (is) the number one pre-workout (and) that says it all.

"With more things to come in 2012 … this will be the year of the athlete. MusclePharm (is) given this number one spot for being the best."

It is the latest award and impressive review for MusclePharm, which continues to set company records for sales. Its popular pre-workout product, Assault, recently became the No. 1-selling pre-workout product on Bodybuilding.com and is also the No. 2 top-selling supplement on the world's largest sports nutrition online retailer.

With a first-rate medical team, MusclePharm, the official nutritional supplement provider of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), also continues to offer premier products that are both safe and proven to show results.

"This is very exciting to be named the top supplement brand of the year. It is a testament to the work we have put into each product and the trust we have built with the consumer in a short amount of time," MusclePharm Chief Executive Officer Brad Pyatt said.

"We continue to work hard to put out amazing products that are both safe and effective. Unlike other supplement companies who have no medical guidance, our impressive medical team does not cut corners in putting together our products, and the results have been evident as we continue to grab a larger market share at an incredible rate. This award is also a sign of what is to come in 2012."
