Testosterone is well known for its anabolic effects on how strong and big our muscles will grow. But certain factors determine how much testosterone your body will produce. For example, how you exercise, how long you sleep, what your diet consist of, and how often you get intimate directly effects Sarms your level of testosterone. Males suffering from testosterone deficiency experience diminished libido( sex drive), erectile dysfunction, muscle weakness, loss of body hair, and depression. These symptoms are caused because there is inadequate stimulation to the pituitary gland. When the pituitary gland is stimulated it produces luteinizing hormone (LH), also known as gonadotropins, which stimulates the testes to produce testosterone. This article will discuss methods to increase your testosterone level, thereby creating muscle growth.
Using heavy weights and participating in compound exercises, which require the most muscle mass, will increase your testosterone. If you opt in to lift heavy weights, its essential that you use at least 85% of the most weight you can lift once on any given exercise. This weight percentage should be used in these compounding exercises: squats, deadlifts, power cleans, bench press, chin-ups, dips, lunges, and military presses. However, you do not have to lift heavy weights to increase your testosterone level. Training with 100% intensity and effort, while doing multiple exercises, multiple sets, and multiple repetitions will have the same effect as lifting heavy weights. These workouts place tremendous amounts of stress on your muscles and body, therefore stimulating your pituitary gland which sends TH to your testes, forcing them to increase it's testosterone production.
The fuel your body gets is equally as important as lifting weights in increasing testosterone. Consume EFA ( essential fatty acids) or monounsaturated fats found in nuts, olives, olive oil, avacados and saturated fats found in red meat and egg yolks. Research suggest that monounsaturated and even saturated fast raise testosterone levels. You will want to avoid eating polyunsaturated fast which can be found in salmon and other fish, which can actually lower testosterone. Include cruciferous vegetables, which contain a chemical called diindolylmethane that helps your body get rid of excess estrogen. Broccoli, cauliflower, radishes, turnips, cabbage, brussel sprouts, arugula, watercress, bok choy, collard greens, rutabaga, daikon, and kohlrabi all reduce estrogen levels. Estrogen is known to have a negative effect on muscle growth. Lastly, avoid consumption of alcohol. Alcohol reduces your livers ability to breakdown estrogen.
