New forces are arriving for Lidl-Trek and its riders: the American team announces a new partnership with Unbroken, a recovery tablet naturally derived from salmon and formulated to accelerate athletes' muscle recovery.

Unbroken has already played a key role in Lidl-Trek's extraordinary 2025 season, contributing to six stage victories and winning the Ciclamino jersey at the Giro d'Italia.

Mattias Skjelmose, who was victorious yesterday on the roads of Andorra, began using the product during last season's Vuelta a España, where he won the white jersey for best young rider.

"I started taking it before and after the Vuelta and felt good, so I continued using it - said Mattias Skjelmose -. My recovery improved with Unbroken and I feel better on the bike day after day. I feel that my overall well-being and general health have also improved. I'm quite surprised by how good I feel".

Starting from the Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia Women, Lidl-Trek athletes will compete with an updated version of their current jersey featuring the Unbroken logo on the back and side chest panels, marking the official debut of the partnership on cycling's biggest stages.

Thordur Kolbeinsson, President of Unbroken, added: "We are proud to join Lidl-Trek as a sponsor and partner for their Real Time Recovery, supporting one of the most advanced teams in cycling with our uniquely formulated, science-backed product. Lidl-Trek's innovation in high-performance equipment reflects the same ambition that drives Unbroken: helping athletes push beyond their limits with smarter recovery and better muscle health".

Supported by sports nutrition experts, Unbroken's fast-acting formula provides the entire range of free-form amino acids and nutrients that muscles need to rebuild after intense effort. Chosen by Lidl-Trek athletes, its rapid absorption properties begin working immediately, supporting real-time recovery and performance enhancement.

Produced in Norway using top-quality marine ingredients, Unbroken contains salmon-derived proteins and provides all nine essential amino acids (9EAA) in free form and di- and tri-peptides, making it ideal for use before, during, and after training or competition for recovery on the move. Each tablet naturally includes vitamin B12 for sustained energy and zinc to boost immune function.

Unbroken is now available in Trek stores across the United States and Europe, making it easier than ever for every athlete to recover like a professional.
