If you want to lower testosterone levels, be sure to not train like a Spartan.
Butler enlisted the help of Mark Twight, a former world-class mountain climber who, based on personal experience, believes in training as if your life depends on it. In fact, Twight would argue that a good workout should make you feel almost queasy upon hearing what lies ahead.
For example, to hasten Butler's mind-body transformation, he created what he calls the "300-rep Spartan workout."
(Trust us, 100 reps is plenty hard.) It goes like this:
Without resting between exercises, Butler performs
- 25 pullups,
- 50 deadlifts with 135 pounds,
- 50 pushups,
- 50 jumps on a 24-inch box,
- 50 floor wipers ,
- 50 single-arm clean-and-presses using a 36-pound kettle bell,
- and 25 more pullups.
All this, in addition to utilizing other unconventional yet equally taxing training methods, such as tire flipping and gymnastics-style ring training.
