We are so excited about the newest member of our Research and Development department, Chief Science Officer Chris Lockwood, PhD, CSCS. In addition to a wealth of experience in the areas of health and fitness, Chris has also done extensive research in the area of protein development. This is a great fit for research with transfer factors.

Dr. Lockwood comes to 4Life® with more than 15 years of experience in the health and nutritional supplement industry. His expertise resides in supplemental formulation and substantiation, protein research and bioactives, physiology and metabolism, diet and energy, and exploratory research.

Chris has a PhD in Exercise Physiology from the University of Oklahoma. He has served as a nutrition consultant to bodybuilding.com and numerous international dietary supplement companies. In addition to consulting, he has authored, co-authored, and peer reviewed more than 30 research manuscripts. He also served as Editor-in Chief of Muscle & Fitness and Muscle & Fitness Hers, 70-year old fitness magazines that boast more than 7.2 million readers with a circulation in more than 35 countries and 20 languages.

Recently, we attended several meetings with Chris. We were so impressed with his broad knowledge of the latest developments in the nutraceutical industry. It was hard to tear ourselves away, because his teaching style was so engaging and interesting! The great thing about Chris is that his passion for research and product development is matched by his desire to serve others by providing cutting-edge products and a great opportunity to share these products. We are so excited to welcome him to the 4Life executive team!
