Episode Title: Powerlifting in Your 30s and Beyond – Training Smarter, Not Harder

Episode Description:

As we move into our 30s and beyond, powerlifting—and training in general—starts to look a little different. In this episode of Alpha Radio, we're joined by Alpha Athletes co-owners Chris and George to discuss the realities of training as you age, the biggest mistakes lifters make, and how to adapt your approach to keep making progress.

We dive into how responsibilities like work, family, and recovery limitations impact training, why training smarter (not just harder) is key, and how nutrition, routine, and mindset play an even bigger role as you get older. Plus, we touch on what it means to evolve in sport—whether that’s changing your training style, shifting priorities, or even exploring new athletic pursuits.

If you're in your 30s (or beyond) and wondering how to stay strong, perform well, and keep up with the younger lifters, this episode is for you!

💪 Topics covered:

• The biggest differences between training in your 20s vs. your 30s+
• How responsibilities impact your ability to train and recover
• The importance of adapting your training volume, frequency, and intensity
• Nutrition and recovery considerations as you age
• Playing the “long game” in strength training and competition

Got questions about training as you age? Need help navigating these changes? Drop us a message—we’d love to help!
