<div style="margin: 5px; text-align: justify; font-family: Arial;">
<p>Testosterone is largely associated with bodybuilders and muscle growth.&nbsp; Testosterone regulates a whole lot of body functions in men. Regulating sex drive and governing sexual as well as reproductive health in men is one of the prime functions of this male hormone.</p>
<p>It is also well known for its anabolic effects on your muscles. However, there are certain factors that determine how much testosterone your body will produce.</p>
<p>Certain factors that influence the level of testosterone production include how much you exercise, how much you sleep, what your diet consists of etc.,</p>
<p>Men who have low testosterone levels often suffer with low or decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, muscle weakness, loss of body hair and depression.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Importance of Compound Exercises</strong></p>
<p>Compound exercises that involve lifting heavy weights are what help in increasing the production of this male hormone or testosterone.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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&#8217;s testosterone production.</p>
<p><strong>Importance of Diet</strong></p>
<p>One of the most crucial aspects to sustain muscle growth and increase testosterone levels is to ensure proper diet and foods that help increase the production of this hormone.</p>
<p>EFA&#8217;s or Essential fatty acids are highly important for the production of this hormone and the best examples of foods that contain EFA&#8217;s include:</p>
<ul>
<li>nuts</li>
<li>olives</li>
<li>olive oil</li>
<li>avocados</li>
<li>saturated fats in red meat</li>
<li>egg yolks</li>
<li>oily fish such salmons, sardines etc.,</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin: 5px; text-align: justify; font-family: Arial;">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.</div>
<div style="margin: 5px; text-align: justify; font-family: Arial;">Estrogen is known to have a negative effect on muscle growth. Lastly, avoid consumption of alcohol. Alcohol reduces your livers ability to breakdown estrogen.</div>
<p>Make sure you let your body recover after each workout. Your muscles need plenty of time to heal all the muscle tears. If you workout without rest your muscles will never grow. Research has shown that testosterone levels plummets 40% with poor sleep quality.</p>
<p><em><strong>&nbsp;Herbal Supplements</strong></em></p>
<p><em>Herbal supplements are getting more and more popular since they can help meet the dietary deficiencies and help provide with the necessary boost that it requires for optimum production of Testosterone.</em></p>
<p>Certain herbs that are known to increase the production of testosterone include Tribulus Terrestris, Tongat Ali or Long Jack, Ginseng etc., Not only this, amino acids like l-arginine are also known to enhance the production of this hormone.</p>
<p>Certain supplements are a potent belnd of the finest herbal extracts and other nutrients and ensure increased testosterone production.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hghredefined.com/provacyl">Provacyl </a>is one such all atural supplement that is highly effective and has been designed for men to help them overcome low testosterone levels and enhance libido naturally.</p>
