In response to an increasing number of COVID-19 cases in Halton, Oakville will beputting indoor fitness classes and sports/team gameplay on hold beginning Saturday, October17.

The move is based on the recommendation of the Region's Chief Medical Officer of Health, who has updated public health guidelines for fitness classes and team gameplay. The update recommends a temporary pause to all indoor group exercise programs as well as all indoor teamgameplay.

The town has numerous pre-registered programs and classes set to begin this Saturday and Sunday. However, in our ongoing efforts to protect the health and safety of residents and staff, the Town of Oakville is now cancelling all town-run drop-in and pre-registered fitness classes along with indoor team game play effective midnight tonight, according to a statement from Oakville onFriday.

All user groups with indoor rental permits are being notified that all game play must end as of midnight Sunday, October 18. Individuals impacted by these cancellations will receive a full credit placed on theiraccount.

The following services will continue to beavailable:

"As we see cases in our Region rise, we must continue to follow the advice of Halton Region Public Health to slow the spread of coronavirus, and do what we can to help keep residents safe," said Mayor RobBurton.

Burlington has similarly placed restrictionson sports and fitness activitiesto help curb the spreadofCOVID-19.

The town says the pause will be evaluated frequently and will be lifted once Halton Region Public Health deems it safe to resume these activities in townfacilities.

The Arlington County Department of Parks and Recreation is asking residentsif they would attend indoor programs and classes this winter.

In an email sent yesterday, the parks department announced that as staff prepare for winter, they are exploring opportunities for safe indoor classes and programs.

The survey asks whether residents are comfortable attending or sending children to indoor programming, or whether they would rather stick with virtual activities.

Its really to take folks temperature, spokeswoman Susan Kalish said.

Whether the department hosts programs this winter isnot up to us its up to the guidelines, she said, referencing state health guidelines.

One guideline in Phase 3 of Gov. Ralph NorthamsForward Virginiaplan, initiated in August, tells establishments to keep 10 feet of distance between attendees when exercise activities, singing or cheering are involved. In all other settings, the minimum distance required is six feet.

Program sizes will besmaller and in some cases, due to constraints, particular classes may not be viable, Kalish said.

Community centers will have one-way entrances and exits, be reconfigured and cleaned more frequently, the email said.

Options for physical activities range from gymnastics to therapeutic adapted services, and other suggested topics for programming include history, music, science and discovery, languages and nature.

The parks department continues to offer virtual programsfor people of all ages, abilities and interests. For now, the department said outdoor spacesare open and it continues to run Programs in the Park(while the weather is good).

If you can't keep your hips level during the renegade row, you're better off doing bent-over rows instead.

Using dumbbells to score an intense workout is a no-brainer. They can help you pack on the muscle and crush even more calories. Trainers love them too, because "you can perform many variations of exercises while also progressing in load," Darren Ross, CPT, owner of P13 Fitness tells LIVESTRONG.com.

Dumbbells are also incredibly challenging, since you have to work to stabilize them throughout your movements, celebrity trainer Ashley Borden, creator of the Hot at Home dumbbell training program, tells LIVESTRONG.com

For all the good dumbbells can do, though, getting the most out of your training sessions means selecting a challenging yet doable weight, performing the right exercises correctly and steering clear of moves that aren't in your best interest.

Here, top trainers share their thoughts on what you need to know about training with dumbbells safely and effectively.

Avoid These Dumbbell Exercise Mistakes

When it comes to what to avoid, many trainers offer varying opinions based on what they feel is inefficient, ineffective or just downright unsafe if you're not experienced.

Still, Borden sums it up best: "The worst dumbbell exercises are the ones where you are using weight that is too heavy and your form is totally compromised," she says. That's because these two things often lead to injury. To help keep you from getting sidelined or wasting your time, here are a few moves that give trainers pause.

Named after the Terminator himself (Arnold Schwarzenegger), this shoulder move is better left to experienced lifters. In fact, this and even regular overhead presses put the shoulder at risk.

"The majority of people do not have the shoulder mobility to properly extend and press overhead," Ross says. As a result, shoulder impingement could occur. He goes on: In order to be cleared for the exercise, you should get a perfect score on the reaching pattern portion of the Functional Movement Screen, which not many people do.

Instead: Do lateral raises, so you take out the rotational transition from biceps curl to overhead press and avoid the overhead pressing motion altogether.

Ross says this move is simply inefficient. "[They're] a difficult exercise to get full range of motion, hard to increase the weight and also puts the elbow in a compromised position, risking injury."

Le Sweat Founder Charlee Atkins, CSCS, isn't a fan either, noting that they're more for aesthetics (think bodybuilders) than being a truly functional exercise.

Instead: Try triceps push-ups, even if you need to do them on your knees. This brings your core into the move and allows you to modify or progress based on your strength.

3. Dumbbell Walking Lunge

"Due to the forward movement of a walking lunge, it is very easy for a beginner to execute this movement with poor posture," Courtney Paul, CPT, creator of Courtney Paul in the House Virtual Training tells LIVESTRONG.com.

"Too often, I have witnessed people rush through this movement and lose balance or overextend the knee, which can pull ligaments and strain the muscles that surround the knee." Add resistance to this move, and an exercise that's already challenging to those who lack balance and stability becomes even more difficult.

Instead: Perform weighted lunges from a stationary position. These are a great substitute for dumbbell walking lunges and still 100-percent effective, Paul says.

Rotate the shoulders back and directly over the hips, with dumbbells directly at your side secures your center of gravity, to give you less chance of losing balance or injury, Paul says.

According to Paul, this exercise is notorious for being done improperly, especially when fatigue sets in.

"Due to lack of core strength, the hips will rise, rock side to side, and the pressure of the body weight due to the raising of the hips go into the shoulders, making this core and back movement more of a shoulder destroyer," he says.

Ross agrees that the difficulty level of this move is high. "People do this exercise incorrectly by not stabilizing the hips on the row and not fully extending their arm back for a proper row."

Instead: Swap in bent-over rows. Most exercise programs lack "pulling" exercises, and the row, which helps train the posterior (back) muscles and is one of Atkins' favorite posture exercises, does just that.

Though loved by many, Atkins says that she'd prefer people steer clear of this core exercise, which finds you in a partial sit-up position for the duration of its execution.

"These are terrible for your lower back, especially when done under load," she says.

Instead: Perform farmer's walks. When done properly, Ross says this move "helps with posture by maintaining scapular retraction throughout the walk."

Also handy: It's a great way to build grip and forearm strength as well as work on core stabilization. Ross also notes that the farmer's walk is a "very underrated exercise when it comes to increasing heart rate."

You'll definitely look like a pro if you can nail this move. The key word, however, is if.

Angela Manuel Davis, co-founder and chief motivation officer of AArmy would rather you skip this explosive movement which is essentially a very complex mixture of a deadlift, biceps curl and shoulder press because of its advanced nature. (Unless, of course, you have a coach present to ensure proper execution.)

Instead: Opt for goblet squats. Not only does this mobility and strength move "help counterbalance the squat position to help train proper squat mechanics," explains Atkins, but it also closely "mimics real-life scenarios," such as picking up a heavy box from the ground.

Watch Your (Dumbbell) Weight

Whether you're building muscle and toning up or working to increase your strength and/or size, the weight rack can be one of your greatest assets. Before you start tossing the pounds around, though, evaluate your current fitness level. Not a regular lifter? Start sans weights first.

"You can build on the basics while building stability, mobility, and strength," Davis says."Start light and as you are able to move correctly, add weight as needed."

Once you're ready to load up, choose a weight that's challenging from the very beginning of your set and also makes you work to complete the last couple of reps. "If you are able to do the last 3 to 5 reps easily, that means it's time to increase the load," Ross says. That said, you should still be able to handle your chosen dumbbell without sacrificing your form.

The amount of weight you lift should also be determined by the body part you'll be working. Typically you'll go heavier if you're tackling, say, the glutes, which are a powerhouse muscle, versus something like your triceps.

A good rule of thumb: "If performing a move that requires 10 or fewer reps, select a pair of dumbbells that leave you breathless after said move," says Borden, who notes that if you're not, increase the weight by 5 pounds.

If you find yourself unable to isolate the muscle or you feel the load in other areas than in the targeted muscle (think: feeling it in your back when performing a biceps curl), chances are you need to lower the weight.

A few months into the pandemic it was time for a change in my daily routine. Sheltering in place, while necessary, was getting to me as I suspect it was for many of you. I was ready to try something new and a recent email reminded me to register for an online Lifelong Learning class.

The next week I was connected via Zoom with more than 250 North Shore Senior Center (NSSC) learners participating in the session "15 Greatest President Decisions," presented by Gary Midkiff. On a personal note, my clicking on the Zoom link to join the presentation turned out to be a great decision. But why?

I asked Mary Staackmann, Director of Lifelong Learning, to explain what makes the online session experience meaningful to learners. "When participating in a class," Mary explained, "you feel connected to the instructor and participants, much more so than just watching a recording of a presentation. It's live, and the instructor will respond to questions in real time."

Mary added that there are different ways to interact, "whether we have people type questions and comments in 'Chat' and the moderator reads them to the instructor, or we have participants 'Raise their Hand' and the moderator will unmute participants to ask their questions or participate in the discussion."

It turns out thousands of Center members and others have found the online learning experience the next best thing to being in the seminar room. The first few weeks, many of the online classes were attended by the maximum of 300 participants.

Mary pointed out that "our overall enrollment for the summer term was greater than it had been in past summers when classes were all in person at the Center. We also attracted many new people. We were the first organization of our type, including other senior centers, libraries, and other community organizations, to offer their classes online once the stay-at-home order began, and we attracted many new people looking for things to do at that time."

NSSC Online Learners Discover Multiple Benefits

Kiki Richman and her husband, Bob, found accessing online sessions was just one more challenge during the pandemic. "I had never done a Zoom session, but it turned out to be very orderly . . . a 1-2-3 step process," Kiki said. "The Lifelong Learning staff was incredibly helpful with their telephone support to assist me in accessing the Zoom system," she added.

While she misses being at the Center, there is a different intimacy with online learning. "I always thought you had to be there in the lecture room, but you get up close and personal with the instructor with Zoom. "You can see the instructors' faces and non-verbal and verbal communications in how they get across their information, unlike when you're sitting in the back of the auditorium," Kiki explained.

"The faculty becomes familiar to you," she continued. "Turns out I watched a webinar on Zoom and actually liked the speaker more on Zoom versus live in person." Through the online experience "I was also able to meet instructors as well as interesting new educational topics," she added.

Patrick Krohn started with a negative attitude toward online learning. "I was dragging my feet but was encouraged by my wife and granddaughters. I do feel like I've 'broken the technology barrier' in accessing Zoom sessions."

While he misses the feeling of being in the classroom, there have been additional benefits to Zoom classes. It has encouraged Patrick to learn how to use his computer for email. "It is like learning a new language, one step at a time," he explained. "I'm still listening and learning from others. I also got a Fitbit for tracking my steps, so I'm moving along with the benefits of using technology in my life."

Patrick remains passionate about taking his in-person NSSC mask to mask art classes on Tuesdays. "I would not sit at home doing art alone, so the mask to mask experience is fine to be among friends," he said.

Through engaging on online learning and visiting the Center (as well as walking eight blocks every day and seeing neighbors), "it keeps me sleeping soundly at night," Patrick said.

NSSC Staff Adaptability Encourages Learners

Anne Essex had no reluctance at all in participating in Zoom online learning. "I not only had confidence in the moderator, I was amazed at how rapidly the NSSC staff had adapted to the COVID-19 rules of engagement society now requires," she explained.

The basic rules of participation were simple. "I had to learn to navigate prompts to open and unmute. Other participants clued me in before it was necessary to call the office," Anne said. "Using an iPad or laptop computer can quickly determine the setting, and as for personal appearance, Zoom dress rules apply only above the waist . . . wearing shorts and sandals is fine."

"Online exercise classes have made it possible for me to maintain a healthy routine, since I felt my presence in the gym not advisable at this time. I believe there were 21 participants when I joined the online exercise provided by the Fitness Center."

Anne feels fortunate to be in a group (art and sculpture classes which can meet safely) that allows the social interaction with others not available with remote contact. She advised: "Try it. It is amazing how simple it is to join in with a discussion, interchange opinions and offer suggestions."

The Instructor's Viewpoint

Jeff Mishur is an art historian who has taught online at the university level for 20 years. As a online and live seminar instructor, he finds several advantages to online presentations. With high-resolution images, "I can hone-in on image details for the student. This makes the student experience even better than in person," Jeff pointed out.

"I think the sound quality is also better, which is important for the hearing impaired," he added. "I've found that I get more questions and interactions via Zoom then I do in person. I think this is because everyone feels comfortable typing a question, even those who might be shy or might have been socially conditioned to not speak up."

Jeff observed, "Online programming will also be ideal for snowbirds or those who move out of state but still want to support and be connected to North Shore Senior Center."

Ready to Zoom?

As of now, during the pandemic, Mary said that most of the Lifelong Learning programming will be online through Zoom. "Hopefully, soon, we'll be able to offer programming in person at the Center, but we will continue online programming as well. "

NSSC Lifelong Learning Staff Ready to Help You Zoom

The Lifelong Learning staff is available Mondays through Fridays by phone (847.784.6030) or email (LifelongLearning@nssc.org) to help anyone who requests it. This fall term Lifelong Learning is offering a class on-site called "How to Zoom" to provide in-person instruction on how to take part in online Zoom classes.

Let's reset diversity training.

At this point, its clear that traditional diversity training programs are a source of controversy. This is probably both a cause and an effect of the September 2020 Executive Order on Combating Race and Sex Stereotyping. The order states that, training that promotes race or sex stereotyping or scapegoatingpromote[s] divisiveness in the workplace and distract[s] from the pursuit of excellence and collaborative achievements in public administration.

The executive order raises real questions. Is diversity training divisive, as charged? If so, is the executive order the right way to solve the problem? And more fundamentally: Do diversity training programs as they are currently designed work? If not, why not? In a two-part post, well take a deep dive into diversity training and think through these challenges.

Is diversity training divisive?

If the only goal of diversity training programs were to get people to stop using racial epithets and slurs, no one would object. After all, nearly everyone recognizes that an environment where people run roughshod over the feelings and sensitivities of their colleagues isnt good for anyone.

The parts of traditional diversity training that some people find objectionable stem from critical race theory. Critical race theory, a term that used to be only encountered on college campuses, has broken through to the mainstream and is now being invoked by the White House. But, what does it mean? As it happens, a few years ago, I asked a colleague who teaches critical race theory to explain it in laypersons terms. He generously complied and wrote the following in an email:

It is a theoretical perspective which sees race and racism to be always tied together. That is, the construction of race is very much tied to racism and racist structures. Race, per Critical Race Theory is always about inequality and domination. As a theory it also argues that race cannot be simply understood as a "variable" or in colorblind perspectives, rather it is a construction meant to preserve white dominance over people of color (institutional racism, lack of access to resources, micro aggressions, etc..) while making it seem like life is about meritocracy.

So, if I had to sum it up, I would say that critical race theory argues that the construction of the concept of race must be always understood as a tool of domination, as opposed to reflecting "diversity" of people. So it really distinguishes between ethnicity and race and advances a social justice perspective.

Objections to this theoretical perspective usually come in two forms. The first is an objection to the implication that social problems like disadvantage and access to opportunity should be understood primarily or exclusively through the lens of race, as opposed to through factors such as socioeconomic status, which is sometimes, but not always, correlated with race. The second objection is more subtle. In order to see racism as ever-present in the way the theory posits, the presence of racism has to be decoupled from racist intent. Taking this position means arguing that intent is irrelevant and only outcomes matter. Both of these assertions are taken as given in many traditional diversity programs.

So, is the programming divisive? The answer is: It can be. Consider the following example:

A friend was recently describing a diversity training he attended at his former job. He said the facilitator handed out a sheet of paper. On the paper were statements similar to those in Peggy McIntoshs piece White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack. These included assertions like, I can if I wish arrange to be in the company of people of my race most of the time, I can be pretty sure that my neighbors in such a location will be neutral or pleasant to me, and Whether I use checks, credit cards, or cash, I can count on my skin color not to work against the appearance of financial reliability. Participants in the training were asked to rate how much they felt the statement applied to them, where 1 was the least and 4 was the greatest. They were then told to add up their points.

Once they had done so, participants were instructed to line up in ascending order of point totals. Each participants point value corresponded to their level of privilege more points meant more privilege. After lining people up based on their points, the facilitator then told people to return to their seats. He instructed all the white participants to pull out their paper again and change any score where theyd put less than a 4, to a 4, explaining that anyone who had initially provided a number lower than 4 wasnt recognizing their privilege. And the facilitator instructed all non-white participants to change any answer where theyd put higher than a 1 to a 1 on the grounds that a score higher than one meant that they were denying their oppression. He again asked people to separate themselves into groups based on their points. Now, of course, there were only two groups in the room: those with privilege and those without, divided based on race.

Many people find this type of exercise distasteful, and for good reason. In addition to the objections listed above, the first part of the exercise made assumptions about which types of adversity matter (in this exercise, race did and other forms did not), and reduced it to a point system. The second part of the exercise took whatever variation in point totals existed and flattened it into a binary, race-based set of haves and have-nots.

Its difficult to argue that such an exercise is not divisive when there are literally two groups standing on opposite sides of the room. Of course, this doesnt mean that all diversity training sessions are this divisive, either literally or figuratively. And while this particular exercise certainly isnt included in all trainings, many trainings do involve exercises based on assumptions about identity, adversity, opportunity, and power that not everyone agrees with.

Is the executive order the right way to solve the problem?

No, its not. Mandated solutions arent the answer. They have the predictable and understandable consequences of resentment and backlash. In a recent book with UCLA professor John Villasenor, we made a similar argument against mandating viewpoint diversity on campuses. We wrote:

attempting to mandate viewpoint diversity treats the symptom and not the problemAdministrative mandates in relation to viewpoint diversity likely have the unintended consequence of increasing faculty skepticism on this issue, and would therefore be counterproductive. [emphasis added]

The same logic applies here. In the case of the executive order, the attempt to control diversity training falls into the same trap of treating the symptom and not the problem. The skepticism (and resentment) will come in this case from the people who feel the order isnt warranted and its effect will be similarly unproductive. The way forward is to shift the framework in how we think about diversity training, from one that has fallen victim to the assumptions outlined earlier to one that explicitly recognizes the range of perspectives people bring to sensitive and controversial issues.

A recent five-year randomized study suggests that the intensity of physical activity has little impact on mortality risk, but that being active is better for quality of life.

High Intensity Exercise

Physical activity is one of the most important public health measures for maintaining good health. Its many benefits are immeasurable. Among other things, it helps to improve body composition and reduce chronic diseases, to adopt other healthy lifestyles, and to influence the expression of certain genes. All these interactions lead to the consensus that physical activity is the cornerstone of good health at any age and reduces the risk of death. A recent randomized study has just been published in the British Medical Journal. It was conducted over a period of five years by Norwegian and Australian researchers on older people and aimed to answer this question: besides the frequency of sport, does its intensity also play a role in increasing life expectancy?

In 2012, scientists launched an appeal to people between 70 and 77 years of age in the old Norwegian city of Trondheim, which was founded in 997 by Viking King Olaf Tryggvason. To be included in the study, one did not have to suffer:

Over 6,966 people volunteered. Of course, not all of them were admitted to the study. Exactly 285 people did not meet the criteria, and 5,114 finally decided not to participate. So only 1,567 people participated in the study. They were randomly divided into three groups:

Participants in the study were monitored every six weeks, and after one, three, and five years, key data and exercise compliance were collected. The researchers first wanted to know how these different types of training programs influence the mortality rate. This was their main goal. Secondly, they decided to record and measure changes in cardiorespiratory health and self-reported quality of life. They considered these two factors as important indicators for predicting longevity.

Finally, a comparison of the three groups at the end of the study showed that the effect on mortality between the groups is not significant. This suggests that intensity is not a decisive factor for longevity. In contrast, the respiratory condition was significantly better and the differences in the HIIT and MICT groups were statistically significant compared to the control group for this endpoint. Similarly, individuals in the HIIT group reported improved quality of life at the end of the study.

However, the study has major shortcomings that it does not hide. First, participants in the control group had a higher frequency of physical activity throughout the study and often performed their tasks by doing HIIT-type exercises. It is possible that this makes some of the differences insignificant if they could have been between groups. In addition, more than half of the people in the HIIT group were unable to follow the program requirements strictly and rigorously. There is also a suspicion of bias in the selection, as the recruited participants were all much healthier than those excluded from the protocol. Finally, the authors suggest that future physical activity guidelines, at least for older adults, should be more specific by requiring that at least part of the exercise be performed with high intensity.

Is Centrapeak the ultimate testosterone booster?

In this review, well see if Centrapeak is better than other testosterone boosters on the market at boosting muscle growth, improving confidence & well being, and enhancing libido among others.

Testosterone is one of the most crucial hormones for both men and women. It is responsible for regulating a number of bodily functions, from hair growth to muscle development.

The issue is, many men today suffer from sub-optimal T levels. Normally, your T levels start going down by about 1% every year after 30. [24] But nutrient-poor diets and constant stress, among others, are contributing to a premature testosterone decline.

Low T means youll have a harder time recovering from training and building muscle. Your body will start to accumulate fat, and hold onto it, more easily. Not to mention poor libido and confidence.

This is where a testosterone booster like Centrapeak comes into play

Centrapeak is often regarded as the next evolution of natural testosterone boosters. It provides some of the cleanest nutrients and ingredients currently available on the market, and promises to improve mood & resistance to stress in addition to stimulating natural T production.

So, how well does Centrapeak work? Whats exactly inside of this supplement? Lets have a look below.

Centrapeak currently sits as the #1 testosterone booster of 2020 for men looking to naturally build more muscle in the gym. Youll find it recommended on leading bodybuilding sites and for good reason.

Not only does Centrapeak have all the right ingredients in clinically researched doses. It combines them with proven brain-enhancing nutrients that lower stress, improve daily mood, and boost mental focus.

The result? A testosterone booster that makes you motivated to get up and chase your goals, while also delivering results in the mirror.

Below, youll see us dissect Centrapeak ingredients. To see how they work and if theyre supported by science.

But first, heres a short summary of what we feel is positive and negative about Centrapeak:

Pros:

Cons:

Shop Centrapeak Here!

So, who exactly is Centrapeak for?

Although its highly rated amongst athletes, the manufacturers position it as a vitality formula, making it an obvious choice for men over 30 whore stressed and want to feel energetic and focused in their daily life.

Its actually a good option for men in their 20s as well, thanks to Centrapeaks support for muscle building and strong potency.

In our experience, Centrapeak is ideal for anyone who wants a performance supplement that isnt limited to just one benefit but offers a complete body and mind support.

Centrapeak has a very well-designed formula. Its ingredients come in potent and optimum doses. And every ingredient is backed by strong research to show its effectiveness in improving testosterone or optimizing brain function.

Centrapeak works in a few different ways:

Centrapeak has ingredients such as BioPerine to help your body utilize other ingredients in the formula more efficiently.

Obviously, Centrapeaks formula was designed from several angles, which is a rarity in the testosterone booster market. The manufacturers of this supplement have not only considered the boost in testosterone, but also mental health.

Lets explain why this matters.

Since lower test levels are attributed to poor mental health and prolonged stress, the first step towards building your physique is to support your mental performance.

Think about it every choice we make regarding diet, training, and lifestyle is influenced by our mood. Even the most potent of supplements cant help if your mood will lead you to make choices that will sabotage your progress.

This is one of the reasons why Centrapeak stood out to us. The fact that it addresses the mental aspect of bodybuilding, unlike most test boosters, makes it very different from whats currently available out there.

Things have been looking good for Centrapeak up to this point. But as always, marketing hype is one thing, the ingredients and science behind them are another.

So, what does research have to say about the ingredients in Centrapeak?

First, lets have a look at whats inside. Each serving (3 capsules) of Centrapeak contains these ingredients:

As youll notice, Centrapeak has a clear nutrient profile. Nothing is hidden from the list of ingredients. There are no proprietary blends which would mask the doses of ingredients. Good!

So, how do these ingredients actually work? See for yourself.

Appropriately dubbed the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D is actually a secosteroid hormone and a precursor to testosterone.

Ideally youd get all of your vitamin D from the UV rays of the sun. With the help of cholesterol, your body converts the sunlight into the active form of vitamin D.

Various studies have found a strong link between testosterone and vitamin D. One German trial found that when 54 overweight males were given 3,332IU of vitamin D daily for one year, their total T levels increased from 10.7-13.4 nmol/L and free T levels from 0.22-0.27 nmol/L. [1]

Unless youre living in a climate where theres lots of sun all year-round, you probably arent getting optimal levels of vitamin D for conversion. Even foods that contain vitamin D eggs, oily fish, fortified cereals rarely provide enough to have an effect on hormones.

To highlight this point, one study found that as many as 42% of Americans are deficient in vitamin D. The further from the equator your live, or the darker your skin tone, the less likely youll get what you need from the sun. [2]

Current evidence suggests higher doses of vitamin D3 work best for health and performance. Specifically, its reported that we need 3,000-5,000IU of vitamin D per day to meet the needs of every cell in our body. [3]

Centrapeak contains 3,300IU per serving which is a highly effective dose thats been safely used in long-term clinical studies.

Also called pyridoxine, vitamin B6 is crucial in promoting overall well-being. It supports the function of your liver, it protects your vision, and influences the health of your skin and hair.

B6 also regulates haemoglobin a molecule that enables your blood to carry oxygen to tissues throughout your body.

Vitamin B6 is a great all-rounder you cant go wrong with. In terms of testosterone, research has found it to boost the levels of the male hormone directly by stimulating other anabolic hormones, while also reducing the build up of the female hormone oestrogen testosterones arch-nemesis.

By contrast, not getting enough vitamin B6 could put you at risk of low testosterone. [4]

Other studies have found that a high intake of B6 can lower estrogen levels by up to 30%, giving your testosterone more room to breathe. [5]

Magnesium is an essential co-factor in your body. Meaning, it regulates countless enzymatic reactions including those that influence brain function, bone strength, and heart health.

The mineral supports metabolism and athletic endurance as well as helps regulate the level of strength your muscles can generate. Magnesium is often used by athletes due to its ability to boost recovery, improve sleep quality and increase lean mass.

Centrapeak has used it not only because it does all of the above; its been found to significantly raise testosterone levels too, including the free and total T. Magnesium also calms the nerves, making you feel better mentally. [6]

If youre training on a regular basis, chances are you arent getting enough magnesium. Current evidence shows that many athletes only meet around 60-70% of their daily need for this mineral. The more you sweat, the higher your intake should be. [7]

Zinc is another key mineral when it comes to testosterone. Naturally found in foods such as oysters, shellfish, and beef, your body cant make zinc on its own.

The issue is, approximately 2 billion people are zinc deficient. So theres a good chance you could benefit from zinc supplementation.

Zinc boosts health by regulating metabolism, controlling cell growth, protecting prostate function, and maintaining brain performance.

In terms of testosterone, zinc can help prevent dips in the male hormone. This was shown in a study where elite male athletes experienced a reduction in their testosterone levels after hard training. But when they were given 3mg per kg of body weight daily for 4 weeks, their testosterone levels remained high. [8]

Zinc is also very good for fertility. In a study with 40 men, its been shown to help increase both T and DHT (a type of anabolic hormone that is 4 times as strong as testosterone). 9 of those men were able to get their partners pregnant. [9]

Not all heroes wear capes, and the same goes for vitamin K2 and testosterone boosting.

Although its an uncommon ingredient in test boosters, its actually been shown to have a profound effect on the male hormone.

Studies show it works together with vitamin D3 to boost anabolic hormone production. [10] Not only does vitamin K2 offer a supportive role in testosterone boosting, it does it directly too.

In one study, supplementation of K2 for just 5 weeks led to a whopping 70% increase in circulating levels of the hormone. [11]

Youll find it in egg yolks and red meat, however, both of these foods are high in saturated fat which may not be in line with your diet goals. Supplementation is one easy way around this problem.

Your body gets Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C) from a compound called glucobrassicin. Glucobrasicin is found in high amounts in broccoli, kale and other cruciferous vegetables.

I3C has been shown to help fight some types of cancer, along with protecting from respiratory issues and increasing energy levels.

This natural compound elevates testosterone in a different way to other nutrients weve analyzed so far.

You see, I3C essentially blocks aromatase, an enzyme responsible for turning your testosterone into the female sex hormone oestrogen.

By slowing down the conversion of T to estrogen, I3C allows for more bioavailable test to be taken up by your tissues. [12]

In plain English? Youll feel more energy, be stronger, have less body fat, and gain muscle faster.

I3Cs benefits dont stop there, though. Upon ingestion, it breaks down into other chemicals in your body. One of them is DIM (diindolylmethane), another compound commonly used in testosterone boosters for its ability to optimize hormone levels.

Asian Ginseng has been shown to improve cognition and mood and keeps your immune system strong too.

Originally used as aprhodisiac and libido booster, Ginseng has recently been found to directly raise testosterone levels as well.

In one study, short-term use of the herb increased both testosterone and DHT, which, as weve seen, is another potent androgen hormone. [13]

Not only that, Ginseng increases the production of luteinizing hormone (LH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which are essentially pre-cursors to testosterone.

Ginsengs list of benefits is long. It also has the ability to boost nitric oxide levels in your blood, which leads to fuller muscle pumps. To top that off, Ginseng is known for increasing insulin sensitivity, helping you to stay lean and shred weight. [14]

Luteolin is a herbal antioxidant that supports ideal testosterone levels by inhibiting aromatase, an enzyme that turns T into female hormones. [15]

This effect is especially beneficial for men over 30. As your body gets older, its estrogen-to-testosterone ratio increases and is associated with problems such as:

Luteolin helps to keep your testosterone-to-estrogen ratio in a more youthful range, and as a result, makes for a great male virility and vitality ingredient.

Found in a 250mg dosage in Centrapeak,Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a highly effective phospholipid found in your brain cell membranes.

Being the only nootropic with an FDA-approved health claim, PS is best known for reducing cortisol levels (and by extension stress levels), which allows testosterone to flourish.

PS also improves the uptake of glucose in your brain, and protects healthy neurons from the damaging effects of dying neurons. This results in clearer, sharper thinking and reduced levels of inflammation. [16]

Bioperine is a patented black pepper extract standardized to have a minimum of 95% piperine, its main active compound.

Piperine is linked to a variety of health benefits, but its main purpose in Centrapeak is to boost the bioavailability and utilization of the other ingredients. [18]

The inclusion of BioPerine, which is superior to generic piperine sources, is another sign of the effort and investment Centrapeaks producers have put into their flagship testosterone booster.

Boron is another dietary mineral in Centrapeak. Its found in foods such as apriconts, prunes, raisins and brazil nuts.

Boron helps shuttle other minerals such as calcium to where theyre needed in your body. As a result, boron has been heavily linked to improved bone strength in athletes.

In terms of its anabolic properties, boron has been shown to increase free T levels by 14.7% and DHT by 10%, all while reducing testosterones killer SHBG by 9%. [17]

Another study reported an 11.4% increase in testosterone levels after 10mg of boron taken daily for 4 weeks. Needless to say, an impressive result for such a short space of time! [19]

But the most impressive evidence came from another study, which reported a 62% increase in androgen levels in elite athletes. Whats more, they achieved this result by taking only 2.5mg of boron daily for 9 weeks. [20]

Ashwagandha may be a difficult name to pronounce, but it should be your top pick if your goal is hormone optimization.

An adaptogenic herb, Ashwagandha contains several bioactive compounds such as withanolides, steroidal lactones, and fatty acids that are researched for their powerful effects on muscle growth, mood and vitality.

Appropriately, the word Ashwagandha means smell of the horse, which, beyond the smell itself, indicates its unique ability to give you the strength and virility of the animal.

In one study, just 8 weeks of Ashwagandha supplementation led to 15% increases in androgen hormones in weightlifters. They also saw a reduction in muscle damage, which meant faster recovery from tough workouts. [21]

Rhodiola Rosea might just be the best-reviewed supplement in existence.

The herb was used by Vikings to boost endurance and strength. Legendary Himalayan Sherpa used Rhodiola to help them cope with the harsh conditions of Mount Everest. And in far-flung Mongolia, it was traditionally used as an aphrodisiac on a couples wedding night.

Okay The tales are impressive, but what does the science say?

According to research, Rhodiola works to block the effects of stress on the body, primarily by reducing cortisol. As weve seen, cortisol can block your natural testosterone production when chronically elevated. [22]

Theres also evidence that Rhodiola Rosea extract stimulates a glycoprotein that increases blood cell count. This, along with its ability to increase ATP levels (the energy currency of the body), is thought to be behind Rhodiolas anti-fatigue effects. [23]

Mucuna Pruriens (or Velvete Bean) is a male tonic plant high in levodopa (L-DOPA), an effective compound for masculine health and testosterone.

L-DOPA stimulates your brain to spur gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). GnRH then tells your pituitary gland to make more luteinizing hormone (LH), which ultimately results in increased testosterone synthesis in the testes.

Not only that, Mucuna acts as a growth hormone optimizator and mild inhibitor of prolactin, a hormone that diminishes T levels.

To top it off, Mucuna increases your catecholamine brain chemicals. Including the motivation molecule dopamine.

Here are a few things about Centrapeak that we havent seen with many other T boosters.

The recommended dosage for Centrapeak is one capsule, 3 times daily with food.
