✅Boost Growth Hormone by @amnacademy
---
Tag 2 friends who should see this!
WHAT TO DO:
Avoid wearing sunglasses outside when they can be avoided
Avoid spending all day indoors
Avoid your contact with the sun to be filtered through windows, glasses, and contact lenses
Try exposing as much skin to morning sunlight as is humanly decent (whilst avoiding at all costs to burn)
Resistance training
---
Studies show that blind people have diminished growth hormone synthesis
----
Further studies demonstrate that people with cataracts experience diminishment in GH synthesis... However, post surgery, synthesis returns back to normal!
----
Over the course of a lifetime, we know that GH levels take a bit of a dive: weight training can certainly be beneficial for aging populations!
----
Exercise: resistance training at 70% or above your 1 rep maximum has been shown to boost growth hormone production
---
If you'd like hear a more detailed explanation of the concepts in this post, you can check out our mini lecture on instagram TV, or visit our blog.amnacademy.com website for full references and research papers.

What's the most ANABOLIC thing you can implement for gaining muscle size, burning fat, aiding in recovery and increasing strength?
...no, it's not a load of drugs, you nincompoops. Why would you think that? Because I peppered this photo with emojis of pills and needles to entice you into reading a helpful caption you might have otherwise ignored? Oh honey, I would NEVER!
Anyway, the answer?
SLEEP, dammit!
The fitness community worships the, "NO DAYS OFF!", "Sleep is for the weak!", "I can sleep when I'm dead!" mentality to a DISGUSTING point. Why the hell is a community that's supposed to put health at the forefront so determined to deprive themselves of one of the most important aspects of.. well, health? It's dumb. Don't be dumb.
But why is sleep so important for the athlete? You can look up the actual science behind it yourself, this would be too long if I did, so here's the points that matter:
✅: During sleep, the MOST amount of growth hormone is produced. For men especially, this can be upwards of 60-80%! All you guys worshipping the 25/8 grind? You're probably missing out on that optimal NATTY GH! What the hell?! Stop RESISTING rest! Stop glorifying the forever grind!
✅: Recovery.. duh. Our muscle are torn to bits and need the physical rest! Muscle protein synthesis occurs during sleep as well, save a snack with some carbs and protein before bed.. just a handy tip.
✅: Brain function. Your head needs a rest! Focus in the gym is crucial for both strength and overall intensity. If you don't let the adenosine (a neurotransmitter) decline with some solid sleep, you're starving yourself of optimal brain function!
So GO THE HELL TO BED, IDIOT. Don't go to the gym for round 2 at 9pm when you know you need to be awake at 5 for work. Strive for 7-9 hours of SLEEP (not lying in bed, scrolling on Instagram.. yeah, hey you; GO TO BED).

Lifestyle factors are the key to modern health issues and many chronic diseases

Have you wanted to learn more, faster and remember better? These natural methods increase Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, also known as BDNF. Exercise is arguably the most effective at increasing BDNF, but some of the others can be just as helpful

This post is a little “sciency”, and I realize some of you don’t care about the science behind health and fitness . Just get me lean, dude .
-
However, I often I find myself explaining metabolism and hormones to clients as well as on social media.
-
This is NOT an exhaustive list of hormones NOR is it a complete description of the roles and effects of these hormones. I simply included the most important roles and effects of hormones I consider most relative to fitness and metabolism.
-
I hope this opens your eyes a bit to the effects of some hormones often demonized like insulin. Most people associate insulin with fat storage - which it does. But it also helps store glycogen in your muscle to help fuel workouts as well as uptake amino acids and proteins into muscle. These are incredibly important roles for muscle building and raising or maintaining metabolism.
-
Cortisol is also often seen as the enemy, but it can actually play an important role in the morning as a fat mobilizer. This effect is intensified with fasting - as eating in the morning will blunt the effects of cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone, so you need to be careful with fasting if you are already existing at a high level of stress. Cortisol will break down muscle and use proteins for energy.
-
Growth hormone mobilizes fats for energy, and growth hormone release is maximized with proper sleep (7-9 hours).
-
Heavy, compound lifting (3-8 reps) with shorter rest periods (45/90 seconds) for multiple sets (4-5) has been shown to increase testosterone and growth hormone release. Especially on compound lower body exercises

In this video, I talked about the power of intermittent fasting and how to do the gradual change in the eating window.
