Ways to Live Healthier and Look Good Naked
Ask the people around you if they want to live healthier, and almost all will reply affirmatively. If we take the right steps, the majority of us can lead a happier and healthier lifestyle.
Looking good naked can be the result of following a healthy lifestyle. For most people, being in shape and having toned muscles is aesthetically appealing which can win you some brownie points in the bedroom.
Work Out
It’s no secret working out can help you live healthier. Most people who workout are in it for the longevity. Lifting weights can also help you build muscles and lose fat which can make you good look with and without clothes.
Depending on your physical activity goals and schedule, you need to set aside time for working out. Your training routine can be anything from hitting the gym to going for a 1K run.
Eat Right
Food arguably has the biggest impact on how you look. While junk food can be a quick and easy way to curb your hunger, it’ll only harm your overall health in the long run. Following a diet is the only way to live a healthy lifestyle.
Making small adjustments like adding green tea, broccoli, chicken breast, etc. to your diet can help you reach your health goals. Supplementing can be a good idea if you’re not meeting your daily micro and macronutrient goals.
Get Proper Rest
If you have a busy schedule, not taking proper rest can burn you out and leave you exhausted. Sleeping is the only time when your body can recover from the day and rejuvenate you for the next day.
If you lift weights, sleeping is when your body will undergo changes and add muscle or lose weight. You need anywhere between 6-8 hours of sleep every night. If you can’t get six hours of sleep in a single stretch, adding a mid-day nap can do wonders for you.
Keep Your Testosterone Levels High
Testosterone is the male hormone responsible for the development of the sexual organs in men and promotes secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body hair.
On the other hand, lower test levels can cause a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases, abnormal EKG, type 2 diabetes, and a higher death rate from all causes, including cardiac mortality. You can regulate your testosterone levels through supplementation or test boosting food like honey, almonds, spinach, etc.
Be Stress Free
Stress and hypertension are one of the biggest reasons why people today have bad health. Stress can also lead to a rise in estrogen levels which further reduce the testosterone levels and can cause health problems.
Living a healthy lifestyle and working out can lead to a release of endorphins in your body. Endorphins are the hormones which are responsible for making you feel happy and relaxed. Many people use their workouts as stress busters as you can’t feel sad or stressed after a good training session.
