It started with a simple realization after hearing same question over and over.

Ben Lowry, a 27-year-old who served multiple tours in Afghanistan, was routinely asked about what he took to augment and support his daily workout regime.

The questions were unstable of course, for the 6-foot-1, 210-pounder who at one time held a Florida military record of doing 812 sit-ups without stopping.

“Yeah, people were always asking what supplements I was taking,” Lowry recalls with a laugh. “That’s kind of where this started.”

This is ScoopSmith.com, an online venture Lowry has started with some help. It is designed to engineer and direct the proper supplement combinations for those looking to get the most out of their work outs.
