“TEAM DRAKE”
Smash the Mark was created by Mark Drake, a business owner/coach and his wife, Attorney Robin Drake. The first product produced by Mark and Robin was Max Out protein. Max Out protein was created for their 14-year-old son, Mark Drake, Jr. Mark Drake (MJ) was born weighing 1lb and 15oz. MJ loves football and has played since he was 4 years old. Although, MJ has always played football. He also struggled with growth and maintaining his weight. Going into his eighth-grade year, MJ’s pediatrician was concerned with him playing football due to him being 1 lb above being underweight for his age. The pediatrician placed MJ on a 2600 calorie diet per day. This led us to researching ways to maintain his weight while replenishing and re-energizing his muscles after workout. We continued to feed MJ massive amount food while he continued to work out and eventually he met the pediatrician’s weight requirement for his eighth-grade football season.
After completing eighth grade, it was time for MJ to enter ninth grade. Although, MJ was no longer underweight. He was still small to be in the ninth grade. So, Mark Sr. and I decided to sit him out due to the pandemic as well as his lack of growth. While working out at home with the home workout gym and following the workout provided by his personal trainer, we begin researching ways to help rebuild, replenish, and re-energize MJ’s muscles. We begin researching different whey proteins trying to figure out which ingredients were safe to give our 14-year-old son. After consulting with MJ’s pediatrician, a nutritionist and MJ’s fitness trainer we were given the go ahead on giving our son whey protein. After much research, we decided to create a whey protein with our 14-year son in mind. That is how Smash the Mark was created. We are a very goal oriented family and our goal in life is to always smash the mark that you have created for yourself. Since creating Max Out protein, we decided to go all out and create a line of supplements that meet the needs of our entire family. Stay tune because Smash the Mark is getting ready to take over the supplement industry.
