Some Tips

Ok here are some weird tips for improving your fitness and the logic behind it quoted from Mens Fitness UK.

Be less stressed 
‘To build muscle and burn fat you need to work out hard and fast because testosterone – the hormone responsible for positive body composition changes – peaks around 45 to 60 minutes into a workout,' explains Mitchell. 'After that it falls away rapidly as cortisol levels rise.’

Cortisol is the stress hormone, and elevated levels not only prevent your body from eating into its fat stores, it instructs your body to store more of the energy you consume as fat, especially around your stomach.‘So to reduce body fat and build muscle you need to train intensely for no more than an hour, keeping rest periods between exercises as short as possible,’ says Mitchell. ‘This approach will break down muscle fibres while also keeping your heart rate high to burn calories during and after your session

Did you get all that? Basically go all out for 45 to 60 minutes anything more and it gets you stressed and stops burning fat. So that being said, chill out :P. I have implemented this into my own work out previously but in my next post you will see why I go for more then 60 minutes without worrying about stress and how I do it, its not weed before you get any ideas.

Starting the day with an ice-cold shower may not be the most appealing prospect but it will make it easier to build muscle and burn fat. That's because sticking your body under some frigid H2O increases the levels of testosterone in you blood, and elevatged levels of this hormone help you to add lean muscle mass and eradicate fat stores, as well as giving you more energy.Cold showers also strengthen your immune systems, according to the study by the Thrombosis Research Institue. Subjects who took cold showers had increased levels of virus tackling white blood cells compared with those who had hot showers.


Todays tips seem to have a pattern of "Chill the hell out". Yes the dreaded ice cold showers they aren't just for the "lonely" any more! I have tried to do this so many times and its almost impossible, but as of this week all my showers will be cold!

To my female readers this will produce the female sex hormone which will help you get a slender figure.

PS, more testosterone means more labido.
