Why We Put 3.2g of Beta-Alanine in Align Protocol
Share
I’m not interested in ingredients just for the label. If it’s in Align Protocol, it’s there because it works—and it works at the dose your body actually needs.
That’s why every scoop has 3.2 grams of Beta-Alanine.
Here’s the simple version
When you’re working hard—whether it’s under a barbell, on the job site, or just hauling kids around—your muscles start to burn. That burn isn’t just “getting a good workout.” It’s acid building up inside your muscles. Once that hits a certain point, you’re done.
Beta-Alanine helps slow that down. Your body uses it to make something called carnosine, which buffers that acid. The result? You keep going longer before your muscles tell you they’ve had enough.
Why 3.2g exactly?
Because that’s what the research says works best.
Less than that, and you won’t build up enough carnosine to matter.
More than that, and you’re just chasing a tingling sensation that doesn’t actually equal results.
3.2g is the clinical sweet spot: tested in study after study and it’s where real endurance gains happen.
What it means for you
It’s not about adding ten pounds to your bench overnight. It’s about having a little more in the tank for whatever’s in front of you:
At work: You can keep pace without feeling smoked halfway through the day.
In the gym: Those last couple reps you normally miss? You’ll get them.
At home: You’re still standing when the kids want to play, not flat on the couch.
About the “tingles”
A lot of guys feel an itch, or prickly sensation when they take Beta-Alanine. That’s called paresthesia. It’s harmless. Some like it, some don’t—but it’s not the point.
The point is that after a few weeks of daily use your endurance goes up, your wall moves further away, and you get that extra gear when you need it.
Why it fits our mission
Align Protocol isn’t built for hype. It’s built for real life—for the guy carrying the load at work, at home, and everywhere in between.
3.2g of Beta-Alanine is just one more way we make sure you’re ready for all of it.
