Hi Gravity, I have a question. Apart from the warming up benefit and letting your CNS get attuned to your technique, what other benefits are there to increasing weights on each set? Was told by a bodybuilder some time ago that decreasing weights(starting with heaviest) is superior to increasing on each set, but I felt it was a myth.
Im training for semi-pro football im 5'11 245lbs im getting my diet in order and made this lifting routine tell me if I can build muscle and strength with this routine I designed---- monday-back, biceps, neck, Wednesday- chest, triceps, neck, friday- Shoulders, traps, forearms, neck, legs. Sets and reps will be different sometimes heavy sometimes 12 reps. What do you think?
BISMILLAH Must Read you will know best thing here , if you ignore this message then you will think about it , what was written in that ↓↓↓whole message -- press-> Before Your Death know your creator and follow the order of your creator = > You cant make creator but he created you = > No One created ALLAH/GOD , actually creator is beyond from our imagination , beyond from our limits , beyond from our thinking , ability etc etc = > we have limits on everything , we can only see Signs of GOD in this world GENERALLY people do God Vs Science = > science is to know about things which is made by GOD and Human's science have limits to know things , even humans can't know fully about created things and matter properties , then how can they know about the creator ALLAH looks like ? Signs Of Allah/God/Creator == > As we know " Energy Can't Be Created Nor Be Destroyed But May Be Transfer From One Body To Another " who made this energy , from where it comes from . This is the ALLAH/CREATOR/GOD who made energy and everything , he made also that thing which can not be see by our eyes , listen by our ear, or we cant even think and imagine about them. there are so many things which are hidden bcz god knows everything and we can't even imagine that things. 1 ) Allah made you from weak little disdained liquid from your (dad,mom) and that Turned into bones, continuesly pumping heart 2 ) and creator created a clean body from that , and everything is in perfect place like , brain , tongue , heart , liver , and there size , ear , nose , mouth, two kidney and their size , your lungs ,your lungs size etc etc what a perfection , also this is the sign of creator Allah . 3 ) Allah gives you a identity from that liquid drops , example -> your brain a complex part of body and made very small small nerves in it -> your face is different from whole world people, and give you eyes which sees and give you different fingerprint every finger have different fingerprint from your every finger and every finger have different fingerprint from whole world people fingerprints. 4 ) suppose if GOD not gives you nose then when you eat food then you cant take breath , think how the perfection of our body is made by our creator ALLAH . 5 ) SEE egg of hen it is dead but allah create and make in it leg ,eye , ear , heart etc and convert it in to a living creature , and that creature know how to eat , speak , drink , walk this is sign of that ALLAH the CREATOR of everything . 6 ) ALLAH/GOD Made ant , how small it is and it have mind to think , small eyes to see who fit eye lens in it , and have more and more sense than humans , can identify easily where is the sweet and meat . ALLAH made more smaller things than ant , spider etc etc these are signs of Allah . 7 ) think about hair cells , your hand hairs have limit of increasing , you eye hairs have limit of increasing , your head hairs have different limits so this shows that they are made up of same cells but controlling not by you and not by that cells but your creator Allah . 8 ) we say speed light is fastest , ( after researching to a limit by scientists ) before research they were thinking about any other thing, may be Tomorrow they will think about any other thing. = > now we should think the creator ALLAH who made light and properties of every matter , how much ALLAH the creator is faster and powerful . is it a coincidence no bro no, try to understand. don't think this is a message only, take it serious. and so plz minimum one time read Quran it is a word of God, check my playlist , = > Do You Think That you are controlling YOUR SELF ? 1) Your heart is running can you stop it now ? NO can you live without oxygen ? NO can you live without food and water ? NO (bcz you are not controlling your self because it is controls by your creator ALLAH) 2) You need to sleep to recover your self , if you can control your self then stop this process you cant do it . Allah - Arabic Word ] Creator Name Iswar - Hindi Word. ] in Diff Lang God - English Word ] = > THINK ABOUT when people start to imagine CREATOR ALLAH, they started to make their own GOD, Note - we can't imagine creator . for example = > they make pictures, sculpture etc and pray to that pictures can you make god ? no " you cant see God in this world , you can see God after this world if you obey God/ALLAH " is God a human being ? no = > About Some created God By Humans, some fake god require to eat food , some human worship stone and some worship real god but not follow his order . If God eat food then have call of nature means need toilet to poop and pee . IT IS NOT THE QUALITY OF GOD so remove these fake gods now . = > WHO ARE MESSENGERS Allah send messages to their messenger ( Jesus , Mohammad , Adam , Moses , ABRAHAM etc ) so that , they tell that message to the people , bcz ALLAH/CREATOR wants to check people , who follow his order and who don't. we can't say these messengers are son of GOD. for example IN CHRISTIANITY, They Pray To Jesus as son of God. = > we cant pray to Messengers like Jesus , Mohammad , Adam , Moses , ABRAHAM etc but we should pray to the creator ALLAH/God in the way of his messenger, now last messenger is Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam . = > Even we cant worship muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam. we can worship only one creator ALLAH . if we worship Muhammad then we will be in Hell . = > Keep in mind that Muhammad cannot make a single fly, = > we should follow last messenger Muhammad and should obey him. ( now last book is Quran in which ALLAH'S words are written) for guidance of people. JESUS is neither a god nor a son of God, = > JESUS WAS A MESSENGER OF ALLAH before jesus birth , people follow whom , before prophet jesus people follow prophet of that time like Adam , Moses , Noah , Abraham etc . These were the messenger of Allah at their time on earth now last messenger is Muhammad , you should follow Muhammad now. 1 ) ACCORDING TO CHRISTIANITY = > when people tryied to torture JESUS and want to beat him and kill him even they were thinking to hang on neils etc etc etc is it a quality of god that any one can beat him and to nail , jail and hang him , torture him. 2) Jesus Eat Food When He Was Hungry is it a quality of god ? ( Hungry God ) if he eat food then also do toilet for pee and poop at that time no toilet seat was there so they used to do that in hidden in grass and back of some trees and stones etc is it a quality of God ? No = > why some people wants to kill Jesus and want to hang on neils ? because Jesus called people towards Allah/God the creator of everything . so the ruler of that time thinking that jesus will destroy our king rulings , bcz people wanted to follow of true path of the creator . = > Some people says JESUS DIE FOR OUR SINS This is totally wrong if someone rape your wife , sister , mother and murder your family . Then , will you say , he will be in heaven bcz Jesus died for his sins ? Jesus had ever say that "enjoy your life do whatever you want , kidnap a young girl and rape her and do robbery , do murder etc etc And I want to die for your sin then you will be in heaven , and hang me on Neil etc etc " NO don't make your on thoughts . THIS IS INJUSTICE this is your thought , and this thought is wrong = > COMMANDMENT Of Creator Is . 1 ) Allah is only one god and prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam Allah's Last messenger 2 ) Namaz/prayer according to prophet muhammad sallallahu alehi vasallam . if you ignore these 5 times prayer then you will be sinful , if you do your own type prayers then this will be rejected bcz you have to follow messenger not created your own and obey Allah then you will be in paradise inshallah " REMEMBER you have to go back to that creator ALLAH who is the master of all " = > Islam is for everyone not only for Muslim bcz muslim means submit to one creator when you were child then you only submitted your self to your creator you were muslim . it doesn't not matter who are you now and from where you belong and what you followed in past ? DONT JUDGE MUSLIM to see islam, to see islam you should read QURAN and sunnah of prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam . in islam worship only creator one Allah in the way OF his messenger Muhammad = > YOU should follow ALLAH the creator and it will be true for you If You Follow It. if you do not follow then you reject it , you ignore it and you reject the creator . Allah says in Quran chapter 2 Ayatul kursi " Allah! There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him, the Ever-Living, All-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who could possibly intercede with Him without His permission? He ˹fully˺ knows what is ahead of them and what is behind them, but no one can grasp any of His knowledge-except what He wills ˹to reveal˺. His Seat encompasses the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of both does not tire Him. For He is the Most High, the Greatest..

A book that changed my life in ways that I never could imagine is "Secret Testosterone Nexus of Evolution".Drop whatever you're doing right now and go find that book. Trust me after I implemented things from the book my testosterone levels went beast mode
i love to hear about tongkat ali in this video. it is native in my country Malaysia. it used to be very hard to get hands on it since tongkat Ali root only available in forest until new agricultural tech commercialized it. other name is long jack, pasak bumi. local south east asia often use it as aphrodisiacs, increase manly function and all.
Exactly !! Get happy is the most important thing in life. Fame, money will not bring happiness. Robin Williams, Kurt Cobain, and a thousand other examples. Even, tom Cruise, brad Pitt, bill gates and Jeff bezos found fame and money were not enough reason to stay married
Dont forget to get natural ORGANIC products for our food, regular veggies or fruits from supermarkets are grown with tons of insecticides, pesticides and chemicals fertilizers. When u buy broccoli or celery or green onions, etc check if those dont have such a green powder in the unions or leafs, thats a chemical.
You didn't mention the studies on those who went on a carnivore diet and drastically reduced their testosterone levels. It went back to normal when they went off of it. This diet, I think, also increased infertility in men. Also, saturated fats may attack the beta cells in the pancreas causing insulin problems.
1- have a hot wife 2- workout with hot wife 3- have a hot wife 4- did I mention having a hot wife will make your testosterone boost through to the roof. What I’m trying to say more sex = higher testosterone GL guys
Adding to the nutrition side of testicular health is Iodine and Zinc. Supplementing with both of those turned my life around and without healthy testicles, you won't attain the testosterone levels you should have.
Fasting can actually have a negative impact on T levels, sadly! Listen to Huberman podcast on Testosterone. Amazingly smart Stanford Professor who sources all of his info from comprehensive/well done and cutting edge studies.
A lot of good stuff but one thing... MORE CARBS, LESS FAT. - not 40%, more like 10%. But yes fat is important and the types (high saturated, zero PUFA'S) but a HIGH CARB diet has repeatedly shown high testosterone. Clean carbs like potatoes, rice, starches.
Coming to a conclusion ways to boost testosterone is 1. Stay lean/ low body fat 2. Good posture 3. Lift weights/ gym 4. Get at least 8 hours of sleep 5. Decrease stress 6. Stay sexually active 7. Reduce chemical use 8. Diet/ eat saturated fat 9. Keep alcohol use on the low 10. Reduce certain medications/ pills 11. Careful on vitamin intake/ vitamin D helps T levels 12. Ashwaganda/ increase in testosterone levels a lot 13. Tongkat ali/ supplement 14. Forkskolin (supplement) 15. Ginger root 1-3 grams a day 16. Get checked out by a doctor 17. Testosterone replacement therapy (recommended when getting older) and talk to a doctor in both cases
First and foremost - get happy in life. If you are not happy, nothing will work. Robbin Williams for example. Plus about 100 athletes who committed suicide and or killed their families. Actors, rock stars, stock brokers, doctors, lawyer, and list of wealthy people who were in a bad marriage or relationship that committed suicide. Get happy is the #1 to build testosterone.
Oh man I can't express how important testosterone is... Didn't know until my ex girlfriend cheated on me 9 months ago... I was bored as hell and felt soo depressed, even on verge of the worst thing. But this corona time helped me to work on myself. I set my mind on changing my life and some friends motivated me as well. Not to mention that videos from this channel were extremely helpful. In the process I got diet from diet helper named Next level diet to further improve my meal planning. I lost 77lbs in nine months. Now sleeping regularly, eating healthy food and I feel as a man more than ever before.
How many accounts do you guys create to manipulate people into using your site? Stop taking advantage of fake superation stories for people to buy your shit
Right. I hear you on that. During university and residency got 2 or 3 hours a night. Now only get about 5. However if we got more we would be even better than we are today. Anyone can be great on little to no sleep. But we will never reach our true genetic full potential without getting more sleep. Say you run 4 minute mile, getting more sleep you might be able to hit 3:45. Just an example.
@@DrAJ_LatinAmerica there's a difference between not sleeping due to work or other commitments and suffering from insomnia. I want to sleep more, but my body/mind just does not allow me. Its been the same for over 20 years
@@tattoodfreeek yes understand. Just a crazy idea that has worked for 12 out of the last 15 patients with this issue was no pills, no injection, no tea, no coffee, and a strict 60 day diet of turkey, chicken, milk, water. Eliminate all hard workouts to only walking. Spend minimum 1 hour a day on the beach or at minimum in the hot bright sun. 12 of the 15 had massive improvements. The other 3 didn't see improvement until that got a divorce from spouse, well actually one had to get divorce, change jobs and move to a new state and now he sleeps great. Yes, after the 60 days slow add back any medications, supplements and foods one by one till an issue is found. Then if for example an allergy medication or a steroid is found to be the issue, eliminate that item and / or replace with different version. Just a crazy idea but has worked. I received this recommendation several years ago from a friend who is a neurologist he developed this protocol while working with a sleep clinic in Germany.
you might not need naturally 8 hours of sleep. it's what most people need, not all. in fact many oldest people sleep very little all their lives even as little as 2 or 3 hours a day. but the situation when you need these 8 hours and you just dont get it is not good. i myself sleep 5 to 6 hours and i got used to it and i just cant go back to 8 hours regularily. its been about 2 years now and i know my testosterone level was impacted by this. i didnt check my levels but i feel it.
For me, the best thing is to lift heavy, especially squats and deadlifts with at least 200g proteins per day, with multivitamins, including zinc, iron & selenium.
Great info. Just one thing. Ashwaganda is better not taken in the moring as stated due to increased cortisol levels.Instead use it before going to bed. It has a calming effect.
good man. I took more mental notes. Though I like to think I have a sharp mind, it will all be gone next Tuesday! I have been on a health kick myself. Definitely lots of info here. I'll be revisiting...

As a doctor, I must warn you that not all 17 tips would work. I say this because the scientific evidence the video provides is not definitive (ESTABLISHES CORRELATION AND NOT CAUSATION). For example, beta-blockers (a common antihypertensive drug) have been shown to LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE in trials BUT DID NOT REDUCED MAJOR CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS (MI or stroke) or death. This shows that scientific evidence should not always be taken as truth, as it depends on the type of study. In most cases it generates only Hypothesis. While many of the tips CAN INCREASE SERUM TESTOSTERONE, we don't know if it will positively affect the body (IT MAY EVEN BE HARMFUL IN THE LONG TERM). The conclusion? Even for the randomized control trials for plant based supplements, we need better quality evidence (good Cohorts and meta-analisys). Sleep, exercise and other "soft technologies" changes can be done without fear of risks outwheighting the benefits.
TRT is a band-aid. It suppresses some of the symptoms of Low T but only as long as you take it. TRT is a synthetic hormone that tricks the pituitary gland into eventually stopping the production of natural testosterone which will cause infertility. Since testosterone and estrogen balance each other out, when natural testosterone stops being produced natural estrogen will continue to rise. In case you didn't know all of the symptoms of Low T are also symptoms of High Estrogen. Studies show that high estrogen increases the risk of getting certain cancers, autoimmune diseases, weakened immune systems. High estrogen is most likely the cause of most cases of low T because of how synthetic estrogens like BPA affect the endocrine system. By eliminating exposure to these xenoestrogens, switching to an organic whole foods diet, exercise, 8 hrs of restful sleep, keep stress low, avoid artificial carbs, avoid whole grains, consume more organ meats like grass-fed beef liver, etc will reverse your levels. Our ancestors practiced the "nose to tail" diet (wasn't considered a diet back then) and they lived longer, healthier, fuller lives than anyone over the past 10,000 years.
Awesome. Thanks. As of 60 year old man and a former athlete for 50 years, I'm trying to get back to my healthy self and build my muscle back up. So, testosterone is a primary focus.
@@nrd10 Not surprised, but rather think he's full of shit. Some people need to tell lies, and make shit up to feel better about themselves at the end of the day. You don't see 10 year old gymnasts hitting the weight room. Different type of athletics clearly.
NoFap should be at number one, every man should read on how masturbating (watching porn) everyday or every other day impacts their life and Testosterone levels.
@@dkeski4886 there is alot of videos and forums where are people talking about their experiences about nofap, you should check them out and then make a decision for yourself. I just wanted to leave a comment on a big problem that alot of guys have a problem with which can affect their lives and testoserone and that it is something that should be worth considering or atleast check out
@@dkeski4886 i think the biggest problem is porn, and not only masturbation. But when masturbating your body releases dopamine which is why alot of men cant handle not mastrubating for more than 4 days, thus beaing an addiction.

This is awesome! As a personal trainer and licensed massage therapist, I have used this helpful information for my clients. I've run into several glitches in my own fitness journey, including development of insulin dependent, type 1, diabetes as well as a insulin sensitivity (type 2). Both of these together has made my work with the weights take a major hit. I'm seeing an doctor of internal medicine for my GP, but still find myself having struggles achieving my ideal health. Thanks for this information. I feel like I'm on my own in this stuff, like it's up to me to understand it, motivate myself, and get it all done. All on my own.
See the problem comes from finding reputable supplement supplier. If there's video on how to check for supplements that might actually give you the full amount vs a "proprietary blend" would be great.
I am 38. I had naturraly high level of testosterone. Despite that i am also hard-gainer even non-responder. So „high” level of testosterone does not mean more musscle. BUT „very high” level of testosterone, possible to get only but injection - 500mg per week - does the job.
@@luisuribe5432 never seen a reason a normal male would need or want to decrease test levels. Never.. Low testosterone associated with many issues. No one has super high levels without talking drugs chemicals medications
