Squats and Testosterone
Im sure im not the only one who's heard of people stating that doing squats boosts testosterone or releases it. First of all what is the significance of this? Doesnt every muscle release test? Also does doing squats elevate tesosterone levles in the bloodstream ... I heard that after working out tesosterone levels drop. Just wondering what people mean by that statement.
From what some guys at the gym were telling me was that tesosterone is stored in the legs in large quantities and working them out promotes faster tissue growth through-out the body. How much truth is there to this statement and does doing leg workouts increase the bodies natural production of test?
Also ... intense leg training can actually stimulate growth in your chest, back and arms ... why is this ... hope someone has some answer to these questions - this is really pickin at my noggin for some reason...
