Dr. Justin Houman discusses 5 proven ways to increase your testosterone levels.

1. Sleep – at least 7-8 hours of sleep nightly, with the emphasis to wake up at the same time daily

2. Weight Loss – every 10% decrease in weight results in an 85 point increase in testosterone, 15% decrease in weight results in a 250 point increase in testosterone levels

3. Exercise – compound muscle exercises with short resting intervals. Push ups, pull ups, bench press, squats, dead lifts are some examples of compound muscle exercises

4. Lifestyle – smoking and binging drinking can decrease testosterone levels

5. Vitamin D – regular sun exposure is the most natural way to get enough vitamin D, but too much sunlight comes with health risks. Supplement with Vitamin D if not getting enough direct sun exposure
