    Exercise can definitely help if you’ve low testosterone levels. But first, let me explain to you the biggest culprits behind low testosterone count.

    As a matter of fact, the complete cause behind depleting testosterone count varies from person to person. But below are some common reasons:

    • Your age (Older men usually face low T-levels)
    • Your lifestyle (This includes your diet and physical activity level)
    • Medical conditions (If you’ve any diseases or health condition)
    • Obesity (Being overweight and low testosterone count are directly related)
    While age and medical conditions are something you cannot control, you can definitely work on your lifestyle.

    And you’re already on the right track because you’re thinking about which exercises you can do to boost testosterone.

    Well, let me tell you there is actually scientific data to back the efficacy of physical activities in boosting T-levels. Not only that, but it also has a correlation with boosted growth hormone levels and positive brain functions.

    Top exercises you should do in order to boost testosterone levels are:

    • Strength training
    • Weightlifting
    • High-Intensity Interval Training
    And below are some tips you should take care of while doing these exercises:

    • Aim to do full-body workouts instead of targeting just a single muscle group
    • Experts suggest lifting weights two to three times per week for 30 to 45 minutes
    • Try to lift heavyweights. It will work better than lifting light weights with many reps
    • Have short rest periods during your workout
    • Take advice from a trainer if you’ve never done weightlifting
    Whatever you do, please don’t injure yourself and don’t overdo it. Overdoing the exercises can actually increase stress hormones, cortisol, and lower the production of testosterone.

    Just remember to take good care of your diet and overall lifestyle. It will not just increase testosterone but will also have many other benefits for your overall well-being.

    Hope this answer helped you in some way. All the best with your fitness goals.

    Thanks for the information. I've been going to the gym for a year and didn't know about it until now. By the way, does anyone know about red light rejuvenation? It was explained to me that the red light emitted by the system was created after many years of medical research by eliminating unnecessary rays from the whole spectrum and selecting a single wavelength of light. It is a pure, narrow wavelength uniform nonthermal light which activates the skin's photoreceptors and stimulates the skin's immunological function, thus ensuring long-lasting improvement after the treatment. The action of xcellr8.health is scientifically proven and patented. Its spectrum contains no harmful ultraviolet (UVA and UVB) or infrared rays.
