Fitness freaks know it: constant training and a balanced diet are the keys to having a statuesque body. And not only. They are the secret of a healthy life and (almost) eternal youth.
In recent years, the number of users of gyms, saunas and wellness centers has increased exponentially. Why, so many have asked ourselves. The TV icons probably serve as an example and even make us a little envious.
Between healthy foods and repeated sport, we all want the toned body of the cover stars.
Alongside weight loss, most people want to build “mass,” as they say in sports jargon. Not only men, but also women demand a sculpted body. We are not looking for a “thin” body, but a body healthy (Luckily).
To increase muscle mass, training is not enough, it is also necessary to do this thing
Thing? To sleep! We have already said (article who) what happens to our body if we don’t get enough sleep, but the benefits of sleep are endless. And probably not all of them yet known.
Once again, the healthy eight-hour rest will guarantee excellent results.
In fact, the night is the time when the body releases the greatest amount of somatotropin. This hormone, called “growth hormone”, stimulates the protein synthesis processes necessary to repair muscles damaged by training. In addition, adrenaline is reduced during sleep and the muscles relax thanks to the combination of these two factors.
In order to see the desired results, however, it is necessary to sleep at least seven or eight hours a night. As can be seen from this information, the concepts of health and physical appearance are often closely connected. That’s why training is not enough to increase muscle mass, you also need to do this thing … sleep peacefully.
