The HGH Miracle…
There‘s several important factors playing into Longevity:
Healthy living, training, a clean, organic diet, generally not eating too much, possibly a vegetarian lifestyle, healthy, restful sleep… and…
Human Growth Hormone!!
The Big One, The Numero Uno!!
HGH, or Human Growth Hormone, is definitely at least one of the very most important factors in staying younger, fitter and healthier for longer.
It‘s major-purpose is not so much growth, even though it does that, too.
No, the main job of this awesome substance is to preserve muscle, repair/regenerate tissues… and to burn fat !;-)
HOW COOL IS THAT?
There‘s basically two ways to increase plasma HGH-Levels
(Growth Hormone circulating in the blood)
1.To inject it
and
2.To increase your body‘s own production.
Number 1:
Injecting growth hormone: You need a prescription from the doctor, it is expensive and has some quite serious potential side-effects. So that method is rather questionable…
Number 2:
Fortunately, you can increase levels of this hormone naturally, and to quite an extreme extend!
This is done via several different means:
Training
Training in general, especially twice a day, tends to increase Growth Hormone-Levels.
The most effective training for this purpose by far is Lactic Acid Training: HGH sky-rockets from this !;-)
That‘s the reason why we use L.A.-Trainig as Fat Burning Training(near)exclusively: Because nothing burns fat like HGH !;-)
Fasting
HGH‘s main-job is to preserve muscle mass and make body fat available for energy… read: Fat Burning !;-)
Enter Fasting: No nutrients coming in, so the body goes on preservation mode: muscle needs to be preserved = HGH. There‘s no food-energy available, so the body makes available the energy it saved up in the body fat-stores for just that purpose = HGH.
So you get the best of both worlds: Fat Burning and the rejuvenating effects of Growth Hormone, all in one go !;-)
Doesn‘t get much better than that, eh?
Also fasting gives your whole system a much needed rest and it really helps general detoxification of the body.
No wonder fasting is, and has been since 1000‘s of years, real popular!
I will go into the whole subject much deeper right soon, on the up-coming Fasting Main-Page.
Supps
Supplementation can do a great deal to increase HGH-Levels. Especially
L-Glutamine, L-Arginine and Glycene are extremely effective to that end. Add BCAA‘s into the blend and Presto! HGH through the roof !;-)
Some Quick Guidelines:
Glutamine: 2.5 – 5 gram in the AM and PM both, om empty stomach. At those same times use L-Arginine at amounts of in between 10-30 gram! That‘s a lot, but that‘s what it takes. Glycene: 5 gram in the mornings with the other aminos. Beware the Laxative effect! You might wanna start slowly on this…
BCAA‘s: Same time, same place, in between 5-10 gram at a time. One approach is to cycle these with the Arginine, so say 4 weeks of arginine alternated with 4 weeks of BCAA‘s.
Note: Much more to come on this in the Supplement Section !;-)
Sleep
And finally: A good Night‘s Rest, Healthy, Regenerating Sleep…
It‘s very important for overall quality of life, of performance… and, yes, for optimal HGH-Levels.
You might have heard of the fact that this hormone is usually highest at nights?
Well, at least one reason for that is simply this: You‘re fasting at night!
See the Fasting Paragraph above…
And how do you make sure of a good Night‘s Sleep?
Nema Problema, we‘ve got it all covered !;-)
