Growth hormone is the biggest anti-aging hormone. You can increase growth hormone with the right strength training program. Surprisingly, cardio exercise doesn't do much for growth hormone levels. And by boosting your growth hormone, you can burn fat and lose fat.

Every day, I receive spam emails from marketers trying to sell me "human Growth Hormone" boosters to help prevent aging. But did you know there's a natural way to increase your levels of Growth Hormone?

It's called strength training.

In a new study from the European Journal of Applied Physiology, hypergh14x performance researchers from the University of North Carolina compared the Growth Hormone response of aerobic exercise and strength training.

When compared to a 30-minute aerobic training session, a strength training workout resulted in significantly more Growth Hormone release.

So if you are looking for a way to fight aging naturally, and boost fat burning while you are at it, don't neglect strength training as part of your exercise program.

The best exercises to use are multi-muscle exercises such as squats. You can do these with your bodyweight only, or if you have a dumbell set at home, you can do these while holding dumbells in each hand.

Do 3 sets of 8 repetitions two to three times per week. Add a pushing exercise, such as pushups or dumbell chest presses, and you have a fast, total body workout that builds muscle, burns fat, and boosts growth hormone.

Follow that up with interval training and you have the best recipe for boosting growth hormone, fat burning, and anti-aging exercise.
