Propel Fitness Water and Michael B. Jordan Join Forces to Provide Resources, Access for Fitness
Whether it be training for CREED III, or preparing for his feature film directorial debut, Jordan is the embodiment of someone who is dedicated to learning, growing, and pushing boundaries. Jordan is known for rallying the people around him to join in his journey and in 2023, sharing that energy and intentionality with exercisers of all levels in collaboration with Propel.
“I have been lucky to be surrounded by people who inspire me to achieve more through a sense of community, whether it’s in my workouts, or in my life, and I hope to do the same for others,” said Michael B. Jordan. “This partnership with Propel Fitness Water is a true collaboration that’s about supporting those who are actively and intentionally looking to reach their goals and grow each day. I’m eager to work together to make an impact to last for years to come.”
As part of the multi-year partnership, Jordan, in partnership with Propel, will provide resources, access and opportunities for fitness in more spaces across the country. Propel will also play a role in Jordan’s marquee projects.

NEW YEAR, NEW LOOK FOR PROPEL
The integrated partnership comes on the heels of Propel’s eighth consecutive year of growth, and the unveiling of a new brand identity designed to reinforce how the portfolio of products supports the functional needs of everyday exercisers.
Reestablishing the brand as a modern fitness authority, Propel’s updated visual identity highlights the efficacy of the electrolyte water, backed by Gatorade science. The new dynamic design will be featured across Propel’s portfolio of offerings anchoring the brand’s purpose of providing functionality for exercisers in their moments of sweat. Through its partnership with Jordan, both on and off screen, Propel is creating more opportunities to motivate and inspire exercisers as they progress in their fitness goals.
“We want to be front and center for exercisers both functionally, with our product backed by Gatorade electrolytes, and purposefully, by creating opportunities for movement in communities,” said Anuj Bhasin, Chief Brand Officer at Gatorade Brands. “That’s why we are so excited to be working with Michael B. Jordan, someone who has been a creative partner from the start, and embodies what it means to drive forward, unlock your potential and use your platform to encourage others to do the same.”
The refreshed look and feel, which includes a new logo and design across the brand’s entire product portfolio, started rolling out early this year and is expected to be completed by summer 2023.
