Hollywood’s Anti-Aging Secret: The Natural Way to Fat Loss, Youth, and Fitness Longevity for Everyone

Two years ago Dr. Patricia Wexler let one of Hollywood’s fat loss and anti-aging secrets out of the bag–Growth Hormone.  “Actresses use it to slim abdominal fat and increase muscle tone and libido,” Wexler said.

Actresses with insider connections to discreet doctors may inject their way to a youthful, fit and sexy body, but you can boost your own growth hormone naturally without any side effects by exercising smarter, Fit Moms and friends!

Human Growth Hormone is naturally secreted by the pituitary gland to regenerate cells, strengthen bones and make the immune system stronger.  Its biggest effect, the ones the movie stars are after, is fat burning, which leads to a lean, fit, sculpted and beautiful physique, of course.  Growth Hormone turns your body into a fat burning machine.  Most women produce less than 10 nano grams of GH per milliliter of blood.  A nano gram is one-billionth of gram, which means a little GH goes a long way.

The natural way for all you Fit Moms and Friends to boost your natural GH levels, and get the same effects as the starlets, is to ditch the pink dumbells and treadmill for sprints and real weights. Yes, weight training can lead to fat loss, Fit Moms, without leading you to a “bulky” physique (which is a common misconception that Fit Moms and most of our female friends have yodeled for years!).  Weight training is the key to fat loss, anti-aging, and even well-maintained weight loss! Fit Moms and Friends, read  more to learn the key to unlocking that potential in your body through weight training and sprints!

The results of an experiment on the effects of sprinting on women published in Oxford University’s journal Acta Physiologica found “Women elicited a greater response of serum GH  to sprint exercise” than men.   They always say men are the stronger gender physically, but it seems that in this trend, nature is possibly trying to bring ladies into a balance in this sense.  Even the body’s nature is to bring balance between the sexes! The swedish scientists who conducted the experiment concluded, “this may contribute to explaining the earlier observed muscle hypertrophy in women in response to sprint training.”  If you want toned, shapely legs, Fit Moms and Friends, well, even the doctors and scientists are suggesting that you run sprints.  If you don’t run, then look at our other fat burning articles on interval training, which will yield similar results.

Yes, this is Empowerment for Everyone- Mother nature has in some ways leveled the playing field.  We Fit Moms can get stronger with this work as we continue to do it, without gaining the muscle that a man will.  Women cannot get big, bulky muscles from natural GH, but they get larger percentage increase from GH boosting exercises than men and a few extra nanograms will deliver a flat stomache and tight butt fast.

The quickest way to boost GH is to run sprints (as I stated earlier, check the fat burning category of articles at http://nitasworld.com/blogs for further articles on interval training, which will deliver similar results).  The research shows that they key to effective sprints are the intensity, the speed you run, not how many you do or how far you sprint. When I use the word “effective” I am relating the “effective” results of sprinting or interval training to how well this exercise style will burn fat, helping the body look and feel sculpted and lean and beautiful, which is what every woman is striving for when we do any workout.  Am I right, Fit Moms?  I mean, seriously, which one of us wouldn’t kill (or sprint) to have Selma Hayek’s killer calves, and that Fit Mama’s fit and sexy thighs?

Do you think that it’s inconvenient to do sprints?  Well, it takes less time than cardio to burn the calories you can burn in just a few minutes of sprinting, so time is not an issue, Fit Moms.  And all you skeptic friends and fit moms are sure to realize that location is easier with sprints than going to the corner store. You already take your kids to half the places you can sprint, fit moms, and all the pet owners take their “kids” (pets) to the other places.  None of this is rocket science.  Not one of these places is an inconvenience Fit Moms and Friends, because you already go there!

Fat burning Sprints can be done anywhere: An empty parking lot, a low-traffic residential street, the play ground on the weekends at our kid’s  school, the park while the kids play, or the sports field or running track at your teenager’s high school at night or on weekends.  If you haven’t sprinted recently, don’t jump in head first running as hard as you can the first day, start by doing strides at a pace faster than a jog for four repetitions of 50 to 100 yards.  Gradually increase the speed you sprint until you can do four of them all at all out racing speed.  When you can do four at full speed, add an extra sprint every week.  To make sure your intensity stays high, use a stop watch to time your sprint workout and push yourself to get them done in less time.

By running sprints three times a week and adding some negatives to your weight training, you can boost your natural Growth Hormone levels, burn more body-fat than you do with cardio, and save more time while you preserve your joints and  bones, since sprinting is better for your bones and joints than jogging.
Here is a clip of my business partner and co-author JD Johannes running sprints:

As good as sprints are, the scientific research shows the super GH booster is lifting heavy weights.

An experiment conducted at the University of Virginia found, “For each incremental increase in exercise intensity, the fractional stimulation of GH secretion is greater in women than in men.”
That means the heavier weights you lift, the more GH your body produces.  The biggest boost in natural GH came when women used weights that were heavier than they could actually lift.  When you use a weight that is heavier than you can lift up with good form, but that you can control on the way down, your GH levels skyrocket.  These types of lifts are called negatives and
an experiement published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research found that heavy negatives boost natural GH more than anything else. Pull ups, curls, squats, lunges and other types of weight training are really effective for this type of effect, and all these exercises will help you get a sculpted, toned, beautiful physique.

Weight lifting makes us fit moms feel more Powerful!

beginners start here, but you can work your way up to military style, which is the goal

fit moms can get sculpted, fight cellulite and look more beautiful with squats! www.nitasworld.com

And Dr. Patricia Wexler does not approve:

“Human Growth Hormone is unsafe. I know dermatologists and actresses who use it to slim abdominal fat and increase muscle tone and libido. But it can accelerate also a hidden cancer to grow. It can cause funny bone spurs to grow and enlargement of the heart … just to name a few of the many reasons why I consider it unsafe.”

Women get more out of sprints than men.  More GH, etc.  “Women elicited a greater response of serum GH and insulin to sprint exercise. This may contribute to explaining the earlier observed muscle hypertrophy in women in response to sprint training.”

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research
“The findings suggest that the acute metabolic and GH responses in the 90/70% condition were more favourable compared with the 70/70% condition, and a significant correlation between the optimal ECC load and 1RM per BM-ratio was observed.”
Heavy eccentric load produces best hormonal response…heavy negatives
