David Mitchell is a resilient health and wellness entrepreneur and the founder of Supreme Strip, an innovative company specializing in advanced sublingual delivery systems. A veteran who served in Bosnia, David’s journey is defined by an unbreakable will. Following a catastrophic motorcycle accident in 2005 that left him with permanent hardware in his spine and limbs, he fought through a grueling six-month recovery—relearning how to live and eventually returning to the gym while still in traction.
Despite achieving success with supplement stores and training elite athletes like Junior Seau, David faced a secondary battle with dependency on pain medication that led to homelessness. Rising from the ashes of his past, he combined his deep military discipline with his passion for fitness to create Supreme Strip. Today, David is dedicated to providing high-performance, crash-free energy solutions, proving that no matter how many times life knocks you down, you have the power to build a supreme legacy.
