Weightlifting Weightlifting builds muscle and can increase testosterone levels. You want to work out large muscle groups and lift as heavy as possible (safely, of course). Here are some weightlifting exercises to try: Squat lift: Using a squat rack barbell with weights, hold on to the bar while standing and lower yourself down to a squatting position. Rise back up and repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps. Deadlift: While standing with a weighted barbell at your feet, bend down from the knees, grab the barbell, and lift it above your head, then place it back down. Stand back up and repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps. Pushup: Start by getting in pushup position with arms farther out than if you were in plank. Engage your core as you lower your body down as near to the floor as you can get without collapsing your body weight. Raise yourself back up to your starting position. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps. Bench press: Lie flat on a weight bench holding a weighted barbell above your chest. Using a spotter, lift the barbell up by straightening your arms, then place it back down. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps. Overhead press: While standing and holding a weighted barbell at your upper chest level, lift the barbell over your head until your arms are fully extended. Return the barbell to your chest. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps. High Intensity Interval Training High intensity interval training (HIIT) has also been shown to boost testosterone levels. HIIT involves doing cardio in intervals, interchanging very high intensity aerobics with more moderate activity. For example, you could do 30 minutes of jogging, alternating 2 minutes of jogging with 1 minute of sprinting.
