MuscleTech launched a partnership with Rob Gronkowski to develop the Gronk Signature Protein Candy Bar, which shares the function and nutritional value of a high-performance energy bar but with the taste of a candy bar.
The indulgent yet guilt-free candy bar is packed with 20 grams of protein, most of which comes from whey protein, as well as just three grams of sugar. The soft baked bars are gluten-free and are offered in decadent flavors such as Chocolate Deluxe and Chocolate Caramel Peanut, featuring real caramel, chocolate and chunks of nuts.
For the fall season, the American football tight end will be adding this MuscleTech product to his nutritional regimen. Fans are being invited to enter The Ultimate Football Fan Contest for their chance to win game day tickets, as well as a meet and greet with the sports star.
