Ever wonder why, no matter how clean you eat or how hard you train, that stubborn belly fat just won’t budge…

while your drive and energy seem to fade more each year?

Scientists have now pinpointed a little-known “testosterone-trapping” protein that quietly hijacks your man-hormone, locking it away where your body can’t use it.

It’s why so many hardworking men wake up feeling foggy, unmotivated and can’t even fully please their partner in the bedroom…despite doing everything “right.”

But here’s the shocking part: this protein starts spiking right around the age of 40, and it can skyrocket by as much as 60%...

By age 50, it’s already effectively neutralizing your body’s natural testosterone.

Fortunately, researchers recently discovered a way to unbind this trapped testosterone, by using natural herbs and ingredients, allowing it to flood your system again like it did in your twenties.

Within weeks, men in early trials reported flatter stomachs, morning energy surges, and a noticeable return of that confident, magnetic spark in the bedroom.

All by taking these natural herbs that are native to east asia and putting them into a “super blend”... Ultra Testosterone.

And the thing is, it isn’t your fault. Millions of men over 40 reported having less muscle, lower energy levels, and troubles “rising to the occasion”...

As men age, the liver naturally produces more of a binding protein called SHBG (short for sex hormone-binding globulin)

Your body begins releasing more SHBG as a protective response to hormonal changes and stress–  almost like it’s trying to “tighten control” over your testosterone.

The problem is, SHBG doesn’t just regulate testosterone… it traps it.

It binds to your free testosterone molecules, locking them up and preventing them from doing their job.

So even if your total testosterone looks “normal” on paper, your bioavailable testosterone…

The testosterone that’s essential to your body, brain, and manhood… can plummet by 40% or more.

Luckily, there’s a kind of “super blend” that I mentioned early and highly recommend…

It contains ingredients and natural herbs native to East Asia, that actually combats this testosterone trapping protein…

and ancient medicine doctors in Asia have been using these natural herbs for centuries, and up until now, modern doctors have now understood the powerful effects it has on the male hormones... 

Now its ingredients dosages have been tailored to meet men’s biologic needs and put into the Ultra Testosterone blend.

Many are feeling a ‘noticable surge of energy’ and ‘better workouts’ and “lasting longer in the bedroom” 

The ingredients in the new Ultra Testosterone blend have fast-acting properties

Among them is the testosterone unlocking complex, which consists of Eurycoma Longfilia (Longjack), Magnesium, and Zinc.

Which are responsible for unlocking the trapped testosterone, and flooding your body with testosterone that you can use…

In addition, Ultra testosterone includes Horny goat weed, Tribulus Terrestris, and many other anabolic herbs. 

This potent combination of scientifically proven ingredients means you can expect a huge surge of testosterone production within just a few weeks.

It can vary from man to man.

For some, it may take up to 4 weeks to really see the ‘man-boosting” effects. But most Ultra Testosterone users are able to go from flabby ‘moobs’ and sluggish to defined chest muscles and full of vigor in around 2 weeks.

This “super blend” is research backed and proven by clinical studies to finally unlock your testosterone and reclaim your manhood

When this Ultra Testosterone blend was being formulated, looking for clinical studies that had great results on which ingredients worked was a priority.

And it went through a long process finding what worked best for men’s health in mind. this process ensured it had the most potent, fast-acting formula available today

Eurycoma Longifolia (longjack) - Longjack is an herb particularly beneficial for men over 40 as it supports libido, sexual performance, and overall energy levels, alongside promoting muscle strength and mass.

Magnesium - is an essential mineral, in which a study published in Oxford Academic proved magnesium reduces SHBG from trapping testosterone.

Zinc - is another  vital mineral and is associated with higher free testosterone levels and lower SHBG levels.

At Home Workouts For POWERFUL Legs

Lets be honest no physique is complete without having some sort of legs to show alongside it. You could have the greatest upper body that rivals Greek Gods… but if you have ‘chicken legs’, forget it…

And not having access to a gym doesn’t have to be the anchor that’s holding you back from having a symmetric and great physique that all guys will admire…

And it’s actually pretty simple to grow these bad boys.

So let’s get to it.

The Bodyweight squat

First off, before we even think of squatting, we need to have the correct stance, and form.

Because when we eventually add weight…

We don’t want to be squatting heavy with incorrect form/stance, because that’s an injury just waiting to happen…

So looking down at your feet, you should be standing about slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, and you can either point your feet forward or a bit out (I personally point them forward).

It’s also important to NOT move your feet at all while performing any kind of squat, this’ll get you worrying about your feet placement.

I see it all the time, guys move their feet, and during the whole set they’re worried about their feet placement, over actually engaging their quads.

Now, after the feet placement, is form. 

This is crucial, because even if you have good feet placement… it’ll all be in vain without good form.

Not to mention, having good form will save you from back pain, and future problems.

So as you squat, bend at the hips, back neutral, keeping your heels flat on the ground. Going down, you should reach the point where your legs are 90 degrees parallel to the ground. 

Not to mention, having good form will save you from back pain, and future problems.

So as you squat, bend at the hips, back neutral, keeping your heels flat on the ground. Going down, you should reach the point where your legs are 90 degrees parallel to the ground. 

If you’re more of an 'ass to grass’ person, just remember to keep the tension and quads engaged, even at the way bottom.

As you rise up again to starting position, keep your back straight and let your knees do all the work, going up and down.

Think of this as the “baseline” move for all other leg exercises…  Once you nail this, everything else builds from it.

The Squat Hold

If you want to feel that deep, burning tension in your quads, the squat hold will get you there. 

Perform the same setup as the regular squat, but instead of standing up immediately, pause at the bottom and hold the position. 

Keep your arms extended in front of you for balance, and make sure your thighs stay parallel (or slightly below parallel) to the ground.

Hold for as long as you can — 30 to 60 seconds is a great start, and focus on maintaining perfect form. You’ll feel your legs shake, but that’s when you know you’re engaging your quads.

Close-stance squat

The close-stance squat shifts more tension onto your inner thighs and challenges your balance. Bring your feet closer together than usual and perform the same movement pattern as before. 

Keep your core tight, descend just below parallel, and control the movement both down and up.

For an added challenge, elevate your heels slightly on a firm surface like a wood plank or stack of books. This creates more range of motion and isolates the quads even more.

Pistol squat

This is one of the toughest bodyweight leg exercises, and one of the most rewarding. 

Begin standing tall with your arms extended forward for balance. Lift one leg straight out in front of you and keep it there as you slowly lower your body down on the opposite leg. 

Keep your core braced and move slowly to stay balanced. Then push back up through your heel to return to standing.

If you can’t do a full pistol squat yet, no problem. You can progress by sitting briefly onto a low chair or bench as you descend, then standing back up without resting.

 Another option is to hold onto a wall or countertop for balance until you build up the strength to do it free-standing.

Romanian deadlift 

This one’s all about the hamstrings and glutes. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and arms straight in front of you as if holding a barbell.

 Push your hips back, keeping your back flat and your neck in line with your spine. Lower your torso until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings, then squeeze your glutes as you return to standing.

For an extra challenge, perform the single-leg Romanian deadlift. Lift one leg behind you as you hinge forward, keeping your hips square and your balance steady.

 It’s one of the best bodyweight moves for hamstring and glute development.

All in all…

You don’t need a squat rack, dumbbells, or machines to build powerful legs.

What matters most is consistency, intensity, and perfect form. These movements hit every major muscle in your lower body– quads, hamstrings, glutes, and calves…

and with a few variations, you can progress indefinitely.

Here’s a quick circuit you can run if going to the gym might not be an option for you:

Stick with this routine, and you’ll not only notice stronger, leaner legs but also better overall athleticism and balance. 

Remember, the best workout is the one you can do anywhere..

and this one leaves you with no excuses.

How To Increase Bench Press (Use These Key Tips)

Alright, so chances are you’re here because you want to get the most out of your bench press, blast through plateaus and develop a strong chest.

In this post, you’re going to:

1. Optimize your bench press and

2. Unlearn some old habits you could be still doing when you benching. These can be robbing you of gains and quite possibly getting you injured. After you address these bad habits, you’ll be well on your way to more strength, more size, and a bigger chest that you’ve been looking for.

BONUS tips: we’re also going to discuss a few ways to overcome plateaus with awesome training methods at the end of this post…

LET’S GET STARTED:

First and foremost, the holy grail of all exercises - the barbell bench press.

There are a few crucial things that you need to remember before you dive in.

The first thing we need to perfect is your set up. Without the perfect set up, your entire lift will be thrown off, and you could be leaving pounds on the table - which means you’re not maximizing your fullest potential…which means untapped gains.

THE SET-UP

So to begin, you want to:

• Sit up straight

• Squeeze your back, and contract your shoulder blades downward, almost like you’re pointing your shoulders away from your ears.

• Then you want to lay back and keep a nice healthy arch in your back.

Be sure that your feet are flat on the ground and are parallel to each other.

You’re going to be using your feet as a driving force to create tension and pressure that’ll be transferred into the weight itself so that you can get the most out of your rep.

For this, just imagine driving your feet INTO the ground pushing away from the end of the bench press and driving all of that force you’re exerting into your rep. Remember to keep your glutes ON the bench, and to execute these steps in a controlled way…

Now that we have our foot placement and beginning set-up figured out, lets get into the grip placement.

GRIP PLACEMENT

1. Grip the bar just slightly wider than shoulder width apart. This will also vary from person to person, given your limb lengths.

2. Be sure that your wrist are are not flexed back, and make sure they remain locked in place throughout the movement with the bar literally in alignment with your wrists. This is probably one of the most important takeaways when setting up your grip.

3. You’ll want to make sure that the bar is resting on the meatiest part of your palms, and not resting near where your calluses are. If the bar is resting where your callus are, then all of the force coming down from weight and bar will be putting a substantial amount of force and torque on your wrists alone. This is far from optimal. SO - grip the bar on the meatiest part of your palms so that the force of the weight and bar can be directly exerted in direct alignment of your wrist with the support of your radius and ulna bones (the bones found in your forearms).

Having the support of these bones will allow you to drive maximal force for each rep…instead of letting just your wrists do all the work, which is a recipe for injury.

Alright, moving on now. Before lifting the bar, be sure that your eyes are in line with the bar.

When you are ready to lift the bar grab the bar with your thumb over the bar.

Pretend like you’re trying to bend the hell out of the bar into an arch. This helps activate your lats. The better you are in activating you lats for this lift, the more proficient your bench press will be.

You may be thinking that the bench press is just a chest exercise, but it’s far more than that. Several other muscles come into play when executing this lift - which is why its one of the most important compound lifts there is.

Next, inhale and brace your core.

Tighten your glutes and prepare your feet for that driving force I mentioned earlier… and lift the bar off the rack.

Bring the bar forward and towards the center of your chest, keeping your elbows extended but not locked out. The concentric phase of the lift should be very controlled. Keep your elbows tucked in your arms should form almost a 45 degree angle with your torso.

REMEMBER: don’t want to perform bench press with your arms at a 90 degree angle as it could injure your shoulders and cause nasty shoulder impingements. Instead, bring the bar down towards your lower chest in a controlled manner, almost in line with your nipples, and make sure the bar gets a nice touch-n-go…and not a bounce from your rib cage.

Lowering the bar in a controlled fashion will maximize the time under tension for your chest muscles - which is part of the recipe for muscle growth.

If you’re letting gravity do the work - our you’re bouncing the bar right off your chest like a pogo stick, then you’re missing out the necessary time under tension for your muscles need to develop and grow.

The eccentric portion of the lift will be the portion where you explode.

Nice and controlled on the way down, and explode up.

But like I said, be sure not to bounce the bar on your chest. Push yourself away from the bar rather than the bar away from you, ensuring that your shoulders remain in the proper position rather than lifting off the bench.

TAKE A SECOND TO VISUALIZE YOURSELF DOING THIS RIGHT NOW, OR EVEN GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS.

Lets take a quick look at the bar path.

BAR PATH

The path that you see me do here is the correct path and what will keep you from injury.

The bar is lifted in a curvilinear manner until the elbow are fully extended again.

Alright, Bonus tips…

Plateaus are some of the hardest things to overcome when training. It can almost feel like everything you’ve tried, no matter how hard you try, isn’t getting you past a certain point in your training.

What I’ve found in my training is that there are 3-4 main reasons why you’re stuck.

1. One, you’re training too much and incurring too much training fatigue. In other words, you’re accumulating too much volume for your muscles AND central nervous system, and not giving them the proper rest and recovery they need for regeneration.

2. Two, you’re not eating enough. To get progressively stronger in your lifts, you’re going to need to be nourished properly.

Increase your calories slightly each week (protein, fats, and/or carbs). I show you exactly how to do this in the Physique Building program, by the way…you’re going to want to tune up your calories carefully, as going overboard might have you gaining more excessive fat.

You CAN make strength gains while in a deficit, but that’ll require a slightly more advanced method of manipulating your macronutrients.

3. And three - you’re probably not training enough, or not accumulating the necessary training volume your muscles need. In order to address the third reason, here’s what you can do:

• Increase the number of sets as the weeks go by in your training program. For example, in the 2nd week, you’re doing 4 sets of 8 reps on bench. Well in the 5th week, you’ll be doing 5 sets of 8 reps on bench. And so on and so forth.

• Another example you can do is to add the total amount of reps for each lift. So, week 2 you’e doing 4 sets of 8 reps…well come week 3, you’ll be doing 4 sets of 10 reps.

• And lastly - you can increase your intensity, aka add more weight to your lifts. Go up with micro loads, like 2.5 or 5lbs while still aiming for either 4 sets of 8 on a lift. So week 2 you’re doing 225lb on bench press for 4 sets of 8. Well, next week you’ll do 230lbs on bench press for 4 sets of 8. If you really feel like, you can combine all of these three and grind out more reps, sets AND add more weight - but I’d highly suggest you work on one variable at a time to see what’s working for you.

By the way, if you still can’t get past your plateaus and you’ve tried eating more, and tried progressively adding in more load as the weeks go by, then maybe its time for a deload phase and/or cut back a little from the volume, which I also show you how to do in the Physique Building program.

Shifting focus now to the dumbbell bench press.

In order to preserve the most energy at the beginning of your lift, place the dumbbells on your thighs, while leaning back to lay down, simultaneously raise the dumbbells up, above your chest and rotate your wrist until your palms are facing away from your face.

Similar to barbell bench press, there’ll a healthy arch in your back…and your foot placement will be like barbell bench press, flat on the ground and parallel to each other enabling you to develop that driving force up into your legs, through your torso and into the dumbbells.

Maintain full control of the dumbbells, bring them down slowly, and just like in bench press, keep your elbows tucked in throughout the movement. Make sure to get a nice stretch in your chest as you lower the dumbbells. I go down until my arms are about parallel to the ground.

Explode on the way up, making sure to contract your pec fibers… but be sure not to lose control of the dumbbells as you’re finishing off the movement. Pay attention to how I end this workout, I don’t throw the dumbbells on the ground next to me because it could throw off your rotator cuff, instead I bring them back down to my thighs and then put them down, always keeping control of the weight.

So remember I mentioned those plateaus and how to get over them? Let’s apply one of those methods here to progressively get bigger and stronger…which for this exercise, means getting a carved out, bigger and stronger chest.

We’ll be going up in weight but keeping the sets and reps the same.

For example, if on week 1-2 I dumbbell bench press with 70 lbs for 4 sets of 8, then on week 3-4 I will add 5 lbs and bench press with 75 lb dumbbells , week 5-6 80 lbs and week 7-8 85 lbs, all for 4 sets of 8.

Take note that it’ll be hard to jump up by 5lbs on each dumbbell at a time.

If you can, it’ll be better to incrementally increase your weight. So if you can find a set of 72.5lbs, then that’ll be the better option rather than to jump up a whole 5lbs.

Again, this is just an example of how to increase loading with absolutes, you could apply this to any exercise and customize how much you increase, safely. Remember, that some muscles can only tolerate only a small increase in weight at a time.

The last way to increase loading is by using a target rep zone.

So lets say your training zone is 6-12 reps.

If you apply this to a machine fly, then on week 1 you will do 4 sets of 6 reps of 80 lbs. Week 2 you will do the same amount of sets but for 8 reps, and in week 3 you will do 10 reps and week 4 you will do 12 reps.

Once you have reached the target rep zone, then you will increase the weight the following week and start over at 6 reps until you reach 12.

So to sum this all up, here’s how to bench press in the most optimal way:

THE CHECKLIST

• Keep a slight arch in your back

• Keep both feet flat parallel to each other, flat on the ground so that you can use your driving force you generate from pressing into the ground, which will in turn drive that generated force into your core which will then be transferred into your upper torso and into the weight you’re pressing.

• Align your eye sight with the bar so that the bar is directly over your eyes

• Make sure that the bar is resting on the meatiest part of your palms

• Grip the bar tightly and bend the bar, as if you’re ready to snap it or shape it into an arch

• Engage your lats

• Take a deep breath and engage your core

• Tighten your glutes

• Lift-off

• Keep your elbows tucked in

• Bring the bar down slowly, and explode up.

It looks like a big check-list just for once exercise, but I promise you that once you have these nailed down in sequence, your bench WILL go up, and your chest will grow. If you’re still stuck, refer to the bonus section above and see if you’re training too much, not enough, or if your diet is on point.
