How to Increase Testosterone

Take fish oil regularly. Fish oil has so many benefits you'd be crazy NOT to be taking it. Not only does it increase testosterone, but it cuts your chances of a heart attack in half, improves the condition of your skin and hair, promotes fat loss, improves recovery time after exercise, and aids your joints. And since it does increase testosterone, it also has an effect on sex drive and mood. Moreover, it's cheap! Do a google search for fish oil to find out more. One of my favorite fish oils, though one of the more expensive, can be found here: www.t-nation.com However, you can find fish oil twice as cheap!

Eat eggs, nuts, olive oil, and garlic. These three things are easy to implement in your diet. For me, adding in eggs for breakfast a few times a week has really made a difference. And you're probably not eating a good breakfast anyway, are you? Nuts and garlic are also a very good way to increase testosterone, as they contain healthy fats that are required for its production. Garlic contains a compound called allicin, which is great for testosterone. However, be sure to eat real garlic, as allicin breaks down easily and supplements may not have any left!

 Supplement with Zinc. Zinc is absolutely necessary to maintain and increase testosterone, and unfortunately many of us are deficient. Zinc also inhibits something called the aromatase enzyme, which converts testosterone to estrogen. All in all, zinc is a very powerful element. It's even better to take ZMA, which is zinc combined with magnesium. You can find ZMA at most health food stores

Get in shape. Your muscle to fat ratio has a significant effect on your testosterone levels. Basically, you want more muscle and less fat. By following these tips, you will notice an increase in testosterone naturally, but when you add in regular exercise, it will have quite an impact.

10 Ways, How to Lose Weight Fast

1. Drink plenty of water. First how to lose weight fast tip is that our body needs a lot of water so give in to water. Water is not just way to flush out toxin but if you have more water in your body you will generally feel healthier and fitter. This it self will discourage any tendency to gorge. The best thing about water is that is has no calories at all.


2. Start your day with a glass of water. As soon as you wake up, gulp down a glass of cool water. It’s a wonderful way to start you day and you only need a lesser quantity of your breakfast drink after that. A glass of water lets out all your digestive juices and sort of lubricates the insides of your body. You may have your morning cup of tea but have it after a glass of water. It is good for you.

3. Drink a glass of water before you start the meal.Water naturally needs some space so that you feel fuller without actually having to stuff yourself.

4. Have another glass of water while you are having the meal. Again this is another great how to lose weight fast super tip and a way of making yourself full, another great weight loss tips, so that you can actually rise from the table eating less but feeling full just the same. Instead of drinking it one gulp, take sips after each morsel. It will help the food to settle faster so that you get that feeling that you are full faster.

SIDENOTE: Water is such a remarkable thing, but seldom do we give it the credit that it deserves. Did you know that over 66% of your body weight is nothing but water’ It’s amazing! Water also plays a vital role in weight control, which is why I donated so much space to it, above.

5. Stay away from sweetened bottle drinks, especially sodas. Hey all those colas and fizzy drinks are sweetened with sugar and sugar means calories. The more you can cut out on these sweetened bottle drinks, the better for you. So if you must drink sodas, then stick to diet sodas.

6. Include in your diet things that contain more water like tomatoes and watermelons.These things contain 90 to 95 % water so that there is nothing that you have to lose by feasting on them. They fill you up without adding to the pounds.

7. Eat fresh fruit instead of drinking fruit juice. Juice is often sweetened but fresh fruits have natural sugars. When you eat fruit, you are taking in a lot of fiber, which is needed by the body, andfruits of course are an excellent source of vitamins.

8. If you do have a craving for fruit juice then go for fresh fruit juice instead of these that contain artificial flavors and colors. Or even better, try making your own fruit juice taking care not to sweeten it with too many calories.

9. Choose fresh fruit to processed fruits.Processed and canned fruits do not have as much fiber as fresh fruit and processed and canned fruits are nearly always sweetened.

10. Increase your fiber intake. Like I mentioned, the body needs a lot of fiber. So try to include in your diet as many fruits and vegetables as you can.

Eating Healthy Junk Food

Eating healthy junk food depends upon what you consider to be healthy and what you consider to be junk food. My definition of healthy will be defined as something that is not really bad or unhealthy for you. My definition of junk food will be primarily snacks, fast foods and those foods typically not seen as the best choices of foods to eat.

Obviously some junk foods are just plain unhealthy. If they weren’t, we would not even have the term junk food. Some junk food may not be the greatest thing to eat either, but in moderation perhaps, it is OK to enjoy from time to time. I expect to find some junk foods that are neither real good nor bad, which is the beginning of my good list.

But you don't need to eat junk food as a snack, in stead. Eat some fruit or yogurt.  Give it a crunch with a rice cake. Add all 3 to make a good snack. You can even make a salad.  Eating a healthy snack will help you loose weight whilekeping your stomach full.

Just stay away from the real junkfood, like chips, snacks, candy's and all the other fattening foods. Stick to all natural fruits and vegetables. 

The Start of My New Diet.

For starters, I am cutting out all junk food.  Then I will start to watch my calorie intake. After doing a calorie calculation. I burn around 3500 calories a day. If my intake is less then that. I will start to loose weight. I also signed up to the gym. My plan is to exercise 3 times a week. 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of lifting weights.
I currently  weigh 215lbs. My goal is to get to about 180lbs.
Here is a picture before my Diet.
 1/3/2012 5"9 215lbs.

Healthy Eating & Diet

The truth is that nothing is wrong with losing weight rapidly -- as long you do it the right way, says Michael Dansinger, MD. He's the medical doctor for NBC's The Biggest Losershow, which spotlights quick and dramatic weight loss.

"In theory, one could drop as much as 20 pounds in a week following a very ambitious eating and exercise plan, devoting more than seven hours per week to rigorous exercise, and under a physician's care like we do on the television program," he says.

But even if you can't drop everything to go to weight loss "boot camp," you can safely lose 3 or more pounds a week at home with a healthy diet and lots of exercise, says weight loss counselor Katherine Tallmadge, RD.

In fact, having a goal like looking great at a wedding or reunion can be a great motivator, as long as you follow a weight loss plan that you can keep up after the special event.

But you need to plan ahead and allow enough time to make changes to your shape.

"Don't wait until one week before the reunion to try and lose 10 pounds," advises Tara Gidus, MS, RD, team dietitian for the Orlando Magic.

Spin Cycling / Burning Calories

Spinning classes are high-energy group workout classes performed on a type of stationary bicycle. There is usually lively music playing and an instructor who leads the class through exercises and movements on the bike. Spinning earned the top spot on a "Fitness" 10 best calorie-burning exercises list, zapping 425 calories in 30 minutes. Along with burning calories, spinning will increase the lean muscle mass in your glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps and calves, which will help to kick your metabolism into high gear. And spinning is low-impact, so if you have joint issues or other problems that become exacerbated by activities such as running, spinning may be for you.
