Strength, muscular power and aggressiveness in combat with Virilis V2

Bodybuilders and combat sports practitioners share many similarities. They share the same motivation and training intensity, even if the goal is different. Bodybuilding develops muscle mass and strength, while martial arts are the art of physical confrontation. Yet, the training methods of these seemingly disparate disciplines share the same fundamentals: muscular strength, willpower, the determination to win, aggression, and a sense of dominance over the body or the opponent.

Is aggression a sporting value to be encouraged in martial arts?

Aggression is a morally reprehensible value, but it is part of the practice of combat sports. While the technique of practicing martial arts necessarily dominates the subject from the first to the last moment, it is nonetheless true that an aggressive and determined attitude must be maintained during a fight. In truth, a fighter's aggressive side is not a bad thing in itself, provided it is intelligently channeled by the will to win. By nature, man has always been an aggressive species, a faculty that has allowed him to prosper without too much trouble over the centuries. Today, the era is different, but this character trait remains very present in certain combat practices. But on a physical and psychological level, what determines aggressiveness?

Androgen hormones are responsible for an individual's relative aggressiveness

Testosterone is an androgenic hormone that influences several subjective factors such as motivation, attention, mood, motivation, cognitive intelligence, and aggressive or passive behavior. These subjective considerations are biologically rooted in testosterone. These qualities are crucial for fighters in the ring or on the mat. Testosterone (along with growth hormone) is also involved in the synthesis of muscle mass and physical strength on an objective level.

As long as your protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake is adequate, testosterone drives muscle growth and maintenance. Indirectly, testosterone affects athletic performance such as strength/speed, endurance, and lean muscle/fat ratios. Obviously, fighters with higher testosterone levels enjoy significant physical and psychological advantages over those with much lower levels. For martial artists, this translates into naturally faster punching power, with greater endurance and resistance to blows from their opponent. In this case, the question arises... Could it be possible to increase testosterone using simple nutrients and natural substances?

Virilis V2 from YAM Nutrition stimulates total testosterone and the active part of this hormone, free testosterone.

Increasing the total amount of testosterone is not enough because it is free testosterone that is active at the cellular level. We know that very common nutrients, minerals, and trace elements such as magnesium and zinc influence free testosterone. Several biological mechanisms explain this. Magnesium is involved in hormone synthesis itself because it is necessary for the enzymes that transform cholesterol into prohormones and then into testosterone. Magnesium shares a common point with zinc: it intervenes in the balance between oxidizing and antioxidant elements, allowing optimal testosterone synthesis at the level of Leydig cells.

Vitamin D and plant extracts act synergistically on the metabolism of androgen hormones and on testosterone in particular.

Vitamin D is important for muscle strength. It plays a role in hormonal regulation and in maintaining optimal levels of ATP, our energy currency. It also plays a role in the recycling of ATP with creatine and the availability of calcium, the mineral that enables muscle contraction.

Virilis V2 brings you plant extracts combined to create a synergistic effect on total testosterone and the free part of the hormone. Nettle extracts contain lignans and work with Saw Palmetto to reduce the influence of SHBG , a protein that neutralizes testosterone in the blood. 600 mg of Ashwagandha KSM-66™ have also been added to enhance the adaptogenic effect on muscle recovery and strength, given its positive influence on the target hormone. But the real innovation of Virilis V2 compared to the initial version lies in the addition of 400 mg of grape extracts whose active substances sabotage the action of aromatase in men, an enzyme that converts testosterone into estrogen.

While Virilis V2 is currently primarily used by bodybuilders, martial artists would benefit greatly from using it as well. Punching power, stamina, endurance, motivation, focus, and aggression in the ring can all be boosted with our 100% natural supplement. And unlike competing formulas that tout Tribulus terrestris 's unlikely effects on testosterone, Virilis V2 contains only nutrients whose effects have been extensively demonstrated by scientific research...
