Exercises to build up testosterone

When it comes to increasing testosterone levels, eating healthy is only the first step. When you take in these foods, you are building up your energy levels. If you don’t use this power, you will be converting it into fat which is a major killer of testosterone. So to make the best of this new found energy, we need exercise on a consistent basis.

Now I know that many of you are saying that you don’t have time to exercise. Well, I didn’t say that you had to spend an hour on it or start running a marathon. You just need to start short and slow and build up from there.

One thing that you want to do before starting any exercise routine is to consult with your doctor. When we exercise, we are putting increased strain on our bodies and want to make sure that we exercise in the right way. Another thing that you want to do is never over exercise. One major mistake that people make always is they over exercise. They feel that if they just go a little farther or a little faster that they will see more results instantly.

This is a myth. Our bodies are designed to work in a specific way. If we push our bodies too far, they will fight back, and we will become injured or overloaded with cortisol. Another major issue that we have is doing the wrong exercises. When exercising to increase your testosterone levels, you have to do specific exercises. If you do exercises that are not designed to help with your testosterone, you may not be getting the desired results.

Here I’m going to give you a set of exercises that you can do to increase your overall testosterone levels. It is highly recommended that you do these at a slow pace and never do more than you can handle.

Sprinting

When it comes to running it has been shown that making quick ten second sprints increased testosterone levels substantially. What you do is start at a stationary position and run for about ten seconds then stop, turn around and run back to your original post.

You are looking to perform about six to seven of these in a row before taking a break. If you are not one for running, then you can supplement the sprint for a few other options. You can use a treadmill and for about ten to fifteen seconds increase your speed and then slow to a gradual pace. Another option is using a stationary bike, gaining speed for fifteen seconds and then returning to a steady pace.

It has been found that those who engage in sprinting have increased and maintained this increase of testosterone over an extended period.

Lift Heavy Weight

When working out, you will want to add weight training to your list of exercises. Lifting weights is helping your body produce increased levels of testosterone. The most efficient way to increase your testosterone levels with weights is to lift weights at least three times a week.
