If you’ve been pumping iron for a while, you know just how crucial genetics are for packing on mass and shredding down. But let’s break it down – what genes dictate our gains? Is there really a genetic lottery at play? Well, one word stands out: testosterone! 💪
This hormone isn’t the only factor in muscle growth, but it’s the key to unlocking your full potential. Those mesomorphs who seem to grow muscles by just breathing? Yep, super-high testosterone levels are their secret sauce.
You can boost your T levels too! Start by leveling up your diet – don’t just stick to bland chicken and rice! Load up on fresh veggies and quality fats like steaks and eggs. 💥 Micronutrients like zinc and vitamin D-3 play a big role in testosterone production.
And hey, don’t underestimate stress management; chronic stress can tank your T. Focus on compound lifts—squats, deadlifts—and avoid overtraining to keep those hormones optimized. Remember: “The mind is everything. What you think you become.”
