Max Muscle Franchise

Sports nutrition products & fitness gear

Joe Wells founded Max Muscle in 1991. Joe's success stems from his college degree in business and marketing combined with his long-standing passion for weight training and nutrition. After being introduced to amino acids for muscle recovery by the late Lyle Alzado, Joe's teammate on the L.A. Raiders, Joe was inspired to formulate one of the first low molecular amino acid formulas for athletes. His formula quickly became the #1 selling sports nutrition amino acid in the country. Today, Joe stands at the helm of the rapidly growing Max Muscle empire, a leader in the production of high quality sports nutrition products and the country's fastest growing sport nutrition retail chain.
