  • Bodybuilding.com CEO Steps Down

    More signs they are getting killed by amazon.

    Bodybuilding.com CEO Richard Jalichandra has stepped down after one year at the company’s Boise headquarters.

    Employees received an email on Wednesday saying Jalichandra is no longer CEO of Vitalize, the holding company of Bodybuilding.com and three other health, fitness and nutrition brands.

    “[Jalichandra] is departing the company to pursue other opportunities,” the email said. “RJ has been with us for over a year and we thank him for his leadership, hard work and dedication. RJ’s last day will be today, Feb. 15.”

    Liberty Media, Bodybuilding.com’s parent company, confirmed Jalichandra’s departure in an email but declined to answer questions about it.

    Bodybuilding.com is an internet-based distributor of nutritional supplements and fitness products. The company laid off at least 90 Boise employees in December as part of an “organizational downsizing.” It previously employed about 800 people, including 575 in the Treasure Valley.

    No surprises there. With Amazon, Walmart, Target, BJ's, Sam's Club, and Costco offering bulk on protein, pre-workouts, creatine, etc... for cheaper and no wait on shipping. It's much easier to get it there. Plus, with Amazon prime, 2 day shipping is damn good and sometimes you'll get same day shipping on certain things
