Exercise and Growth Hormone

Growth hormone is one of those controversial things among those who desire to live healthy, and only consume things that are totally natural. The list of benefits, and the results attained can lend to much confusion, when counterbalanced with the source: either from cadavers (illegal, not to mention, unsafe and gross), or biosynthetic. What many do not know, is that everyone has this growth hormone sitting right in their bodies, just waiting to be released!

Now many who are trying to sell you a product, will tell you that you will have more energy, increased skin elasticity, an increased in bone mass and density, lowered cholesterol, diminished joint pain, increased lean muscle mass, improved memory, lower blood pressure, and have greater exercise capabilities, and the list goes on, if you get a regular dose of growth hormone. These proponents state that there is a link between growth hormone level and the above mentioned benefits. There may be truth in that, but I think the real thing to understand here is that your body already has growth hormone in abundant supply, it just needs to be released!

I recently listened to a CD by Larry Scott, a heavy weight lifting champion. He spoke mainly about the ratio of nutrients our body needs to lose weight, or gain weight, but he also touched on the topic of growth hormones produced by our body. The benefits are of utmost concern to us women: youthful skin, not to mention the above list of benefits. Unfortunately are bodies stop the free release of growth hormone by the time we are 20 or 30, and it just sits in our glands, waiting for us to trigger its release.

He said that there have been studies done on 80 year old cadavers, that showed they had lots of growth hormone in their glands, it just hadn't been released! Our body produces an ample amount of this growth hormone, and releases it freely when we are young, particularly during our adolescent years. It's just as we get older, that we have to do certain things to trigger its release.

Larry didn't really go into what these four things were on the CD I heard, so, I called him up and asked. He very graciously told me.

Four ways you can trigger the release of your growth hormone are:
1.Sleep. Planning is involved here, but is well worth it. Get your proper sleep, and get growth hormones released in your body for free!
2)Fasting. 3 hours before bedtime, and before you exercise, causes the release of growth hormone.
3)Arginine and L-lysine (amino acids), taken together.
4)Exercising to the point of feeling cramps in the muscle. This causes you to burn fat in that specific area as well as triggers the release of growth hormone!

What is really incredible about this is that three of these things are easily achieved by you, at home, without spending any money! Easy exercises that you can do at home. You can get a video like I have, showing simple exercises you can do in a minute. It showed mostly exercises I already knew, such as squats and lunges, for example, but it revolutionized my thinking in that I am now doing those exercises in a spare moment here and there, and I CAN TELL A DIFFERENCE! I feel stronger, and healthier, and have the feeling of good health (more energy!) which is a result of my growth hormones being released!

This information is so exciting to me, as I much prefer natural remedies, especially free ones, to help us achieve and maintain good health. I am reminded of the "butterfly effect": meaning, putting into practice small things daily will amount to an incredible change in the end results. Start doing these four things to trigger your release of growth hormone: you have it in you!
