OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 10, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- After helping him through a dramatic weight-loss transformation, Complete Nutrition , a national nutritional supplement retailer, has partnered with professional long-drive golfer Richard Moore.

Moore's life-changing weight-loss journey – in which the long driver lost more than 80 lbs. and 25 percent body fat in a little more than a year – was recently featured in a special show surrounding the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship, which aired during Long Drive Month on the Golf Channel. The month-long series chronicles elite golfers as they attempt to qualify for long drive's premier event.

"I would not be where I am today without the help of Complete Nutrition," said Moore, who competes under the nickname RichE. "Using their personalized approach to health and fitness, I became fitter and stronger than ever. The results definitely show in my long-drive game."

In addition to shedding excess weight, Moore 25, increased his average long drive by more than 30 yards and improved his swing speed from 125 to 145 mph with the help of Complete Nutrition. Moore's longest drive to date is 475 yards.

Just last year, Moore tipped the scale at 305 lbs. Realizing he had to lose weight to improve both his health and golf game, Moore began working one-on-one with a consultant at a Denver-area Complete Nutrition store. Together, they developed a comprehensive diet, exercise and nutrition plan. Within two months, Moore had lost 25 lbs.

Moore continued his healthier lifestyle under the guidance of Complete Nutrition. He ate better, exercised regularly and began taking nutritional supplements geared toward athletes such as MegaShred for building lean muscle. In a little over a year, Moore got down to 225 lbs. with twelve percent body fat.

Now that Moore is maintaining a healthy body weight, he has shifted his supplement intake to include more sports nutrition supplements aimed at improving his golf game, such as Prime Drive to enhance energy and increase metabolism for weight management, and 3Plenish, an intra-workout drink mix that helps increase endurance, power and performance. Moore recommends all golfers and athletes incorporate general health supplements into their regimens, such as Joint Pure , which nourishes joints and cartilage and promotes mobility, and Complete Active, an exclusive multivitamin created specifically for athletes and physically active men who demand more than traditional multivitamins.
