バルクス — 日本製プロテイン
Born in Japan. Built on 30 years of elite training science.
Now available in Australia — exclusively through Toku Sup.
VALX wasn't created in a boardroom. It was built by Yoshinori Yamamoto — one of Japan's most decorated trainers and bodybuilders — out of frustration with the compromises in every supplement on the market.
After three decades coaching elite athletes including MLB major leaguers, winning domestic and international bodybuilding and powerlifting titles, and authoring over 30 books on training and nutrition, Yamamoto knew exactly what a serious protein supplement should deliver.
VALX was his answer. Owned by Leverage Co Ltd — the same company that operates fitness gyms across Japan — VALX is backed by real infrastructure, real athletes, and a relentless pursuit of three things: taste, quality, and affordability.
After dozens of prototypes, the VALX Whey Protein range was completed — achieving a taste standard that redefined what Japanese consumers expected from protein powder, and a quality that elite athletes trusted.
In Japan, Yamamoto isn't just a supplement founder — he's a legend. A trainer with a 30-year track record coaching world-class athletes, a competitive bodybuilder and bench presser still active in his field, and a prolific author whose books on training and nutrition have shaped a generation of Japanese fitness culture.
His YouTube channel, "Yoshinori Yamamoto Muscle Training University — VALX", has surpassed 700,000 subscribers. Every VALX product is developed with his direct involvement — not as a celebrity face, but as the chief formulator.
Multiple domestic and international titles in bodybuilding and powerlifting competitions over a 30+ year career.
Personal trainer to major league baseball players and elite professional athletes across multiple sports.
Including bestsellers published by KADOKAWA and Nagaoka Shoten on strength training and body composition science.
One of Japan's most trusted voices in fitness education, with a decade of content reaching millions of viewers.
VALX launched with a mission to make protein you'd actually want to drink every day. Through dozens of prototypes, they developed flavours that dissolved cleanly in water without the heavy, artificial sweetness typical of Western brands. Real café au lait. Real matcha. Real chocolate.
Every VALX product is manufactured in GMP-certified factories in Japan — facilities that meet strict pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing and quality control standards. Key products carry Informed Choice anti-doping certification, making them trusted by competitive athletes.
21.8g of protein per serve. Amino acid score 100. Engineered by someone who has spent 30 years understanding exactly what the body needs to build and maintain muscle — not a marketing team working backwards from a price point.
VALX protein is produced daily in GMP-certified factories across Japan — the same standard applied to pharmaceutical manufacturing. This isn't a marketing claim. It's a regulatory requirement that most Western supplement brands don't match.
Key VALX products carry Informed Choice certification — the gold standard in sports supplement safety. Every batch is tested for banned substances, making VALX the choice of Japanese competitive athletes who cannot afford a false positive.
Japanese consumers are among the most demanding palates in the world. VALX spent months in prototype development to achieve flavours that work with water — not just milk — and dissolve without foam or grittiness.
VALX's first international expansion into Hong Kong in 2024 was met with immediate sell-through at their K11 Art Mall pop-up. Consumers who tried samples purchased on the spot. Australia is the next chapter — and Toku Sup is bringing it here first.
Not a brand inspired by Japan. Not a Japanese-sounding name on a locally made product. VALX is manufactured in Japan, formulated in Japan, and trusted by Japanese athletes. That's the difference.
In a market flooded with influencer-led supplement launches, VALX is different. Formulated by a trainer who has spent 30 years in the weight room, not a content creator who started a brand last year.
