Colavita Sutter Home strong in Quad Knofp Sequoia Cycling Classic time trial
The entire Colavita/Sutter Home women's team placed in the top thirty of the $10,000 time trial. The course suited Powers strengths on the rollers and fast descents and the team's Blue time trial bikes and aero Profile Design set up sliced through the wind perfectly. "The course was awesome," Powers said. "It had climbs, flats, rollers, wind and descending -- it was an everything course and I really liked it. I went in expecting a strong performance. I am so happy that I was able to do that. I had huge support from my team."

A former down hill skier, Powers suited the technical descending into tight corners on the course. "I felt great on the descent and I left everything I had on the course, there were no places that I could have gone harder."

Cheetah Bars in the Classroom
Ask a few professors about holding the interest of a class of forty college students and they’ll tell you what a challenge it can be. Ask Dr. Chris Neck how he consistently holds the attention of over 1000 college students for three straight hours in his weekly “Management Theory and Leadership Practice” class, and his response will likely include the words “positive,” “energy” and “Cheetah bars.” [Read full story here]

The “Fleet” Van Vleets
Whenever we use the slogan, “Cheetah Bars- Healthy Organic Energy Bars for your fast-paced lifestyle”, we should automatically include a photo of the Van Vleet family from southern California. As this family of bicycle racers, train, race and rack up wins and championships, mass quantities of Cheetah Bars are consumed. (Don’t worry- we’ll make more). Bryan (dad) is an elite national champion, daughter Brittney is a two-time national mountain bike champion and son Blake finished in the top 4 places nationally in both mountain and road disciplines.

After winning some Cheetah Bars at a bike race, Bryan said, “they have become a staple in our racing and training diets. Thanks for the SUPER product.” To that we respond, “Right on, and GO Van Vleets!!”

Testimonials

"Good nutrition is a vital key to an athlete's training. You can't train hard when you're out of fuel. After a grueling practice, Cheetah Bars provide our athletes with a much-needed energy boost to help them through a tough weight room workout. And with Cheetah Bar's organic, all-natural formula, we don't have to worry about our athletes taking something they shouldn't."

"I have used Nutra-Fig's Cheetah Bars for training and racing since the late 1990's, and they are the only bars I'll eat. They are moist, fruity, and easy to eat, even during periods of high intensity. No more choking down a dry, chaulky sports bar during a bike race for me. Cheetah Bars go down easy, offer a great source of the sustained energy needed in a sport like elite road racing, and they won't upset my stomach like a belly full of sports gel will. I also highly recommend a Cheetah Bar in your golf bag. It's a delicious snack that will get you through all 18."

"Being a professional athlete means having complete control of not only one's training, but one's diet. This is where the Nutra Fig Cheetah Bar comes into play. The great-tasting, organic Cheetah Bar offers me the quick energy that I need on and off the bike, with the added piece of mind that I am fueling my body with an all natural energy source."

Eneas Freyre
TARGETRAINING Professional Cyclist

"When you're an older athlete you get past all the hype and want real, proven products. Cheetah Bars fit the bill, made with real organic ingredients- not the fad item of the moment. Cheetah Bars provide lots of energy and potassium, they're sweet and easy to eat when racing or training. It's great knowing you've replenished your body with a natural product, not a lab project."
