My Program:
I sometimes get asked what I actually do for my own personal "program". One
thing that I think is unique about what I do is its efficiency: I have
taken all the most powerful elements off of Peak Testosterone and put them into
a program that really takes very little time out of my day. To me that is
the key, because I am so busy. My job is demanding and I have three kids
and many other interests as well, so I simply don't have time to exerecise two
hours per day and spend two hours in the kitchen preparing meals.
Another thing that I think that is unique about what I do is that it is so
inexpensive. I can honestly say that the way I eat is MUCH cheaper than
anyone else I know. I doubt I spend $60 on myself in the course of the
week for food, yet I eat incredibly healthy. And, for supplements, I
probably spend less than 50 cents per day.
I don't believe I've cut any corners, however, or compromised: I'm just short of 50 and
have tons of energy and stamina; my career is productive; I am still
learning; I am actively involved with my family and so on. I'm not trying
to boast here, but rather point out that it doesn't have to take a lot of time or
money to achieve excellent results and turn back the clock.
Do you know the foods and drinks that increase erection-boosting
Nitric Oxide? Check out the
Peak Erectile Strength Diet where I show
you how to dramatically and naturally improve your erectile strength.
The important thing to do is what I call the Big Three. A lot of guys
write in looking for a magic supplement to fix all their problems. I
always emphasize that the three changes below will get almost anyone to 90% of
where they want to go:
I. Exercise
Aerobics (6-7 X/week for 20-30 minutes) + Weights (3 X/week Whole Body for 45 minutes).
SECRET: I exercise during my lunch hour. This means essentially no
impact to my day.
II. Diet
Check out the
Peak Testosterone Diet to see how I eat. NOTE:
Besides what is mentioned in
the
Peak Testosterone Diet I religiously eat
broccoli every day for cancer protection. Broccoli is easy to prepare:
just put some raw florets in a coffee cup with a half inch of water on the
bottom and microwave for about 2.5 minutes. I also eat a largely
Low Fat
Diet with some nuts thrown in as well.
When does low testosterone
cause erectile dysfunction or harden your arteries? 300 ng/dl? 400?
Find out what the studies say in Low
Testosterone By The Numbers.
III. Sleep
I sleep 7 hours per day. This is the weakest part of my program as I
believe 8 hours would give me probably a very much needed REM cycle. I
hope to improve in this area as s0on as possible.
Again, you should always concentrate on these "Big Three" items - the rest is
almost always fine tuning. The above will markedly improve your mental
performance, appearance, testosterone, erections and so on. Everyone wants
a pill to pop or a magic formula, but it really comes down to a little work and
a little planning each day. Again, though, you do not have to spend an
exhorbitant amount of time or money to make this work!
Other common questions often center around the following topics which I have
summarized below:
Supplements:
Vitamin C, 500 mg with no fat in stomach
Fish Oil
L-Arginine, 1.5 g/day
Korean Ginseng
Vitamin D, 3000-4000 IU
Maca (1 T powder - watch for digestive problems)
Pycnogenol (2 50 mg tablets)
NOTE: Other powerful and safe supplements are Magnesium (I get plenty in
my diet) and CoQ10 (it is a little too expensive for me right now).
Caffeine and Alchohol:
Again, this is covered in the
Peak Testosterone Diet, but I also drink
occasionally and have caffeine. I follow a largely Low Fat, ovo-vegetarian diet
with occasional bursts of dark chocolate and fish.
Artificial Sweeteners:
I do use Sweet n Low, i.e. Saccharin. Based on what I have seen in the
studies, this is not digested and so, unless monstrous quantities are consumed,
is safe. Again, you have to research this for yourself and decide.
Fast Food:
I have not eaten a fast food burger or even chicken sandwich in years.
However, I ate fast food for twenty years and cannot imagine the damage that I
did to myself.
Sugar:
I have very minimal sugar and sweets. I can't say I've completely
eliminated them but close. (And that is difficult for a chocoholic!)
Now there are several dozen other things that I watch out for, including
overtraining, regular sex, stress, sleep disorders, vitamin deficiencies and
other things that I list throughout the web site. Any of these can
strongly effect testosterone, erectile function, immunity and your health in
general. I hope one day to add a easy to use checklist for those
interested.
