You might still feel young, but muscle mass starts to
decline around age 30 if you're not actively working to preserve and build it.
This isn't about getting jacked—it's about staying strong, energized, and
functional for the long haul.
Benefits of building muscle now:
- Increased metabolism (burns more calories at rest)
- Improved posture and reduced pain
- Higher energy for parenting and work
- Better mental clarity and stress management
But I Have Kids, Work, and Zero Time…
We get it. You’re probably squeezing workouts in between
daycare pickups, meetings, and bedtime routines. But you don’t need hours in
the gym to build real strength.
Here’s what works:
- 30–40 minute strength workouts 3–4x per week
- Full-body or push/pull splits to maximize efficiency
- Lift heavy (safely)—6–10 reps per set
- Walk or do short cardio bursts throughout the week
Even if it’s in your garage or living room—consistency wins.
Protein = Progress
Your body needs fuel to build and maintain lean muscle.
Start each day with 25–30g of quality protein—a shake is fast, easy, and
effective.
Try Alpha Gold’s clean whey isolate post-workout or
blended into a morning smoothie for a quick win. It supports recovery, muscle
growth, and keeps you full longer—key for busy days.
