Most men who are looking to get
the perfect physic know they need to work out on a nearly daily basis—and
that’s not easy. Don’t get me wrong, asquiring the perfect physic is not just a
matter of aesthetics. Yes looks do matter, but real men should strive to get
into the best shape of their life and increasing over-all health levels.
Showing off comes secondary.
Therefore, here are a few
lifestyle changes you need to make to help you get that sculpted physic.
Start
at the bottom
If you’re looking to boost your
strength for the workout and speed up muscle gains, then performing leg
exercise at the beginning of the workout is the way to go. According to Norwegian
study, starting off a workout with leg exercises leads to an increase in both testosterone
and growth hormone, thus leading to greater fitness results.
Stretch
for success
Men can also benefit from yoga.
In fact, a study by the University of Maryland showed that yoga outperformed aerobic
exercise when it came to flexibility and muscle strength. Furthermore, the same
research revealed that regular yoga practice reduces levels of cortisol—the
hormone responsible for abdominal fat, overeating and a host of other heath
troubles.
Run From Hunger
According to many studies,
running sheds colossal amounts of calories, helps you ward off heart-related
problems, reduces stress and can get you into the best shape of your life. For
more appeal, a study published in the Journal of Sports Science revealed that
subjects who completed a long run reported low level of ghrelin—the hormone in
charge of regulating hunger—than those who didn’t exercise.
