About Old Bull Health

Jem Bolt

I was interest in health and longevity, a strong self-interest in-fact, and a desire to do something different. I was approaching middle age, had completed an Ironman triathlon, and found I was picking up new injuries from training and competing. I was also not recovering as fast as I was used to. In addition, despite all the exercise, my weight was only going one way, up.

Working in the industry at the time with one of the larger players, I found it hard to navigate the category. Why?

Existing product ranges were driven by:

shelf space in retailers, (the more the better),
health claims rather than needs,
a single ingredient, meaning you buy more.

Needs were left to the consumer based on their motivations, and most recent discussions, with little guidance on daily requirements or nutritional gaps.

Speaking to a range of men, I found there was distrust, they would go into a discount pharmacy motivated, and then leave empty-handed, overwhelmed by choice, price, and brand. When they did buy, they found pills hard to swallow consistently, and thus usage was inconsistent with poor or no results.

My protein shake was my daily constant. Why not build on that?

I wanted to rethink the traditional, keep it simple, and deliver solutions we could and would use to our benefit, and get excited about. As a result, I started Old Bull Health, I considered myself an "Old Bull" and this was about health, and I knew middle-aged and older men was a market not served well in Australia.

I use our powders every day and have since we launched.

Training injuries have dropped off substantially, as have colds and flu which the kids would bring home. My immune system has improved. I use our protein daily and have managed to gain muscle mass in my fifties as well as better manage daily caloric intake as a meal alternative (different to a meal replacement) to manage weight. As for testosterone levels, these have remained above average when tested, and I get no complaints in this department.

Our approach

How could we deliver the best ingredients (we would use), at the best prices (one of the reasons we have stayed out of retailers to date), in the most convenient way (men generally hate shopping, so online with subscriptions available, for consistency) and include ingredients we may actually be short of in our daily lives rather than go on what claims we could make according to the ingredient.

We wanted proven ingredients that could move the dial, based on research and trials. We wanted a product that would drive consistent use. We wanted simple.

Made in Australia

We don't make this stuff in my garage. (I was asked that once).

Our products are registered and conform to Australian TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) requirements where applicable and are listed in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG).

They are then produced in certified manufacturing facilities in Sydney, NSW.

We have a warehouse in Cromer (Northern Beaches) and distributed nationwide from Brookvale (Northern Beaches) using Australia Post.
