Everybody that currently weight trains has the intention of building muscle, correct? Why else would they be bodybuilding and lifting heavy. One of the most powerful substances in the human body is Growth Hormone. When Growth Hormone levels are elevated, muscles grow and you burn more fat. Could this be why we keep hearing about all of these athletes getting busted for testing positive for hGh? I think so!

Here are a few ways to boost your Growth Hormone levels naturally..

  • Sleep! Sleeping is key to any workout regemine, especially for proper recovery. Ever heard people say that you grow more in your sleep than in the gym? This is why. 8 hours of sleep per night is essential, as Growth Hormone levels skyrocket when in a deep sleep.
  • Circuit Training or taking short rest periods between sets (3 or more per exercise) will also elevate your Growth Hormone levels especially when breathing heavily.
  • Post workout nutrition is one of the biggest things. Drinking a carb/protein rich shake (2:1 ratio), 15-30 minutes after a workout will also aid in elevating growth hormone levels. Having a shake after you wake up in the morning is also a prime time to consume your carb/protein shake!
