Strength training (also known as resistance training or weight training) is not only about building bigger biceps or bragging rights at the gym or at home. It’s one of the most powerful natural testosterone boosters you have. Every time you lift, you send a loud message to your body: “We need more strength, more power, more vitality.” Testosterone isn’t a father of 50 telling you to slow down, it’s a reminder to take control and be intentional about your health. Your best years are not behind you; they’re still unfolding.

Exercise Burnout: When the Fire Burns You Out

Burnout doesn’t arrive all at once. It creeps in when the scales tip too far, too much work, too much responsibility, too much training, too little time.
