Testosterone is the main sex hormone, but today we are going to talk about other aspects as to what testosterone does to your body. There are few things if anything that is greater than feeling the pump of blood rushing through your veins when your working out hard. Boosting your testosterone and then feeling that blood pump through your veins feels better. In this blog post we will talk about why we should boost testosterone and then how to naturally boost your testosterone for greater performance in your workouts and athletically. This post is more for the men out there that are looking to lose weight in a short amount of time and in huge bursts.
Why should we boost testosterone for greater performance?
A. Increased Muscle Mass
You can easily boost your muscle mass by increasing your testosterone levels. The reason being is that testosterone is the chemical that is released into the body after the brain sends a signal to the rest of your body that. Testosterone is part of what makes your body respond and pack on the muscle.
B. Fat Metabolism
Testosterone releases and tells your body to burn more of the fat that you have instead of letting the body store it. Stress makes fat store, testosterone makes the fat burn. Your metabolism increases and your weight loss becomes easier when you combine the testosterone with a good set of muscle. This becomes a winning combination when it comes to weight loss and beating obesity.
C. Increased Blood Cells
Testosterone increases the amount of red blood cells that are made when the blood marrow is activated by the testosterone. Bone density is increased as well. When the red blood cells are increased the body runs more efficiently and your body becomes a fat burning machine. Weight loss becomes a piece of cake.
How do we naturally boost testosterone for greater performance?
1. Exercises and Lift Weights More
One of the most natural ways to boost your testosterone for greater athletic performance is to increase your muscle mass by exercising more and lifting weights. When lifting weights we find that the brain releases more growth hormones in the body in order to heal the muscles that were injured slightly in order to come back. Bigger muscles equals more testosterone and more testosterone equals more weight loss and more fat burned.
2. Eat and Drink More Protein
Eating and drinking more protein increases testosterone naturally because the protein itself contains testosterone. I would suggest the men to eat and drink whey protein as it has less estrogen in it and more testosterone. I prefer drinking my protein as opposed to eating it because the protein typically tastes better than eating it.
3. Stay Away from Flax
We kind of touched on this in the last way that we naturally boost testosterone. Staying away from flax products and flax seed is essentially for producing more testosterone. Estrogen is the counterproductive counterpart to testosterone, and is in a way, the testosterone for women. For guys, we are going to want to stay away from anything that has flax or soy proteins in it. Soy is a bit better for the men, but both are counter to testosterone.
4. Get More Rest
Your body will burn a lot more fat and will work more efficiently and have greater performance after you start to get more testosterone. As everyone knows, especially those that lift heavy know that we have to rest in order to create a greater amount of testosterone. The body makes repairs and builds the muscle in the resting stage. You will find a great increase in testosterone if you give yourself two more hours increase in sleep more than what you get now. This can come in the form of a nap as well.
We have given you some great ideas on how to boost testosterone naturally in order to get greater performance athletically. I want to invite you all to share this blog post anywhere you can and please comment below to give us even more ways to naturally boost testosterone. This was a great a fun blog post to write as I find that my body feels drab if my testosterone is low. Let's get the manly muscle one, boost the testosterone, lose that weight and beat obesity!

Testosterone, the Key to Burning Fat for Men?
Testosterone and estrogen are the keys to burning fat and so many people don't even know it. Do you know what testosterone is? Testosterone is a hormone, made mostly in guys as a reproductive steroid. Both the male and female produce this chemical combination of testosterone, but they serve different purposes in the body. A lot of the time, we go about our lives without thinking about these reproductive chemicals. This anabolic steroid helps your body to grow and mature in ways that help burn fat. It's no wonder that a good number of athletes take a testosterone booster in order to bulk up their muscle before a big fight or game. We will look at what it is and how it helps the guys burn fat. Let's break it down!
1. What is Testosterone? This is confusing for a lot of people because we normally link the words testosterone and aggression. These two words really don't have a lot to do with one another. Testosterone is the hormone that allows reproductive organs to increase in size, as well as muscles and bones as we grow and develop throughout our lives. If you have ever gone to a handball court and have seen small guys there with no muscle and they seem like twigs, you know that they probably could stand to raise their testosterone rates. Testosterone helps your body to feel better and gives you that macho alpha male feeling inside your mind and chest. This is the reason why buff guys get the girl, because not only does it increase your body in size, it also gives you the confidence to talk to women.
2. The Problem with Testosterone and CortisolThe problem that we face in the body is a little stress hormone called cortisol. The problem that we now face as bodybuilders, obese people trying to lose weight, and the general population is that this stress hormone causes us to want to eat more and more and we find ourselves gaining weight instead of losing it. Cortisol is a stress hormone that has reverse effects of testosterone. This is why you need to stop worrying and stressing out so much. The more you can chill and not stress, the more the testosterone will help you lose weight.
3. How do I naturally boost testosterone?
Many guys ask this every day. We go to the doctor and he says that our testosterone levels are low. The first thing we do is we try to find a supplement that will help us boost it quickly and efficiently. Unfortunately, these supplements are not always legal and can be detrimental to your lives. There are several ways to naturally boost testosterone.
A. Peak Training
The first is to do some peak training. Get out there and push your body to the max (without killing yourself). If you know that you can jog for 4 MPH for 20 minutes, push yourself to go 6 MPH for 20 minutes.
B. Get Enough Sleep
The average adult should be getting 7-10 hours of sleep per night. We normally get 3-6 hours of sleep per night. Get to sleep earlier and give your body enough time to boost your testosterone.
C. Strength Training
By doing strength training, you allow your body to get blood pumped into your muscles at greater and higher rates. This helps create more testosterone because your body is running at more efficient speeds. The slower you go during strength training the more you will produce.
D. High Intensity Interval Training
Doing HIIT is another great way to boost testosterone naturally. You will find yourself wanting to work out because you will become addicted to the boost and the good feeling that you get when you work out.
E. Eliminate Sugar from your Diet
By consuming sugar you make the insulin levels rise in your bloodstream and you become decreasingly productive in your making of testosterone. Your body will create less and less the more sugar you consume.
I do hope that you guys have enjoyed this blog post about how testosterone is one of the essential keys to burning fat and weight loss. We are facing obesity head on and I can't wait until you can look in the mirror and be confident about your body. Implement these tips in boosting your testosterone levels naturally in order to boost muscle gain and help burn more fat. I am fully confident that you guys can and will share these with your family and friends and that you too can boost your weight loss by boosting your testosterone levels!

Do Men Really Burn Fat Quicker than Women?
We have had a constant debate of trying to prove which sex burns more calories and fat quicker.
Where do you stand on the subject?
Do you think that women burn it quicker?
Let's look at a couple factors to see if we can prove once and for all which sex burns fat the quickest.
1. Testosterone
Testosterone is a chemical that aids in maximum body performance in men and women. Women have a minute percentage of testosterone in their body. Estrogen is the chemical that is found in women that allows for max performance. Testosterone has been proven to help the body grow quicker and stronger. Men have gobs of testosterone in their body when doing bodybuilding or working out. Men in turn build greater muscle mass and burn more fat in a shorter amount of time.
2. Body Fat Percentages
It is a fact that women are more overweight and have a greater percentage of body fat. Women have a greater deficit to overcome than men do. There are many factors that contribute to women having a greater body fat percentage. Whether this coincides with burning fat is unseen. Women tend to splurge more often than men do. I am not trying to sound prejudice at all. The fact is that women can not eat the same things as men can and expect not to gain large amounts of unhealthy weight.
3. Different Bodies
Another factor that you have to consider is that men and women have different bodies. Men have bodies that are built to build muscle, work, and go hard. Women have more delicate bodies that are built to bear children and do lighter work. I am not saying that all men and women are like these stereotypical examples, but, for the most part many people fit into these two examples. Men have the extreme advantage for burning more fat quicker than women as far as body types go.
I think that we can conclude that men really do burn fat quicker than women do. These are the hard facts that we are faced with every day. There are things that women can do to combat their larger fat deficits. If you want some tips then go to the blot post that is located below to get some tips.
