@@fitz2917Except we do tell people not to drink, or, at the very least, to drink responsibly. Also, let's not pretend that alcohol is the same as steroids.
That’s not true. You need maybe 10 working sets per muscle group per week to see growth. I would say it’s more to do with consistency outside of the gym with diet and sleep that is important.

Okay, at 63, it dropped pretty low. Went on TRT microdose. After a few weeks, there are not a lot of differences, but importantly, I do recover like I did when I was younger. That is a huge difference between being young and being old is that you recover from injury so much faster. I've added about 10 lbs more muscle on exactly the same training. Body fat lowered very modestly. Got rid of a spare tire, that midsection fat that is so annoying but not harmful. BMI didn't mean anything before as a total natural. It means even less now.

Really helpful. I’m 40 and have 346 ng/Dl which is on the low side of normal. Or 12 nmol/L for the brits in the comments. Knowing you’re at 16 nmol/L and have that muscle mass is encouraging
My brother tested 1180 at 24, I tested about 950 at 16, he had a bit of a second puberty at 22. Our whole family on our dads side has super high test, dense back hair almost as thick as our head hair, also ear hair, based on our last name we would have been basically the Kshatriya (Indian warrior caste, about 15%~ of our population) war generals back in the day so makes sense. So 1000 isn't exactly the limit for nattys. Depends on the person and genetics, along with physical activities, we do frequent exercise and martial arts swell.
346 ng/dL is extremely fucking low. Though this also depends on free test and SHBG levels. Get more sleep and fix your diet. Make sure you get plenty of zinc, magnesium, vitamin A, and boron. If your diet & general lifestyle is good & you can't find any reasons as to why your test is this low, I'd recommend hopping on TRT.
Unless your profession/ability to make money hinges on you being bigger and stronger than everyone else, there is no logical reason to ever take steroids.
Well delivered message Jeff and one that those considering steroid use need to hear. I really appreciated your non-judgemental approach to getting this message out.
@@kgtl12345 you're missing that the human body is complex and one single hormone value of a single person at a single blood test does not define their entire health state or the capabilities of their body
@@kgtl12345 Genetics play a huge part. Anything above 300 and below 1000 is the normal range. If it is lower than 300 then it is considered abnormal and your doctor may prescribe you TRT (if you ask)
We need more study on how low testosterone (TRT) Impact longevity because they did a study on woman who did (HRT) And the impact on longevity was insane it boosted their health by miles

I used to crap on science based training and I don’t really know why, ig I just thought it was easier to do the machines and be in my way, but Jeff has honestly been a huge help to me and many others to see how effective training with a little brains is. Thanks Jeff and awesome physique
Excellent, Jeff. You're a 'clean' body builder, and so is your message. Unfortunately, body building has taken a negative spin for a number of decades now by the use of steroids and other enhancing substances, compromising health. Body building and holistic (clean) living still go hand-in-hand. That's the way of nature. As one example, I'll take a Steve Reeves physique any time over looking like the 'Hulk' (OK for comics but not real life). Thanks.
Yeah natural test levels aren’t as important as people think. A 300-400 isn’t much different from like an 800, as long as both people feel good and are healthy, cause bodies also have different sensitivities and reactions to hormones
It does slow down over time. Another aspect to consider is possibly needing to increase your intensity and vary your training a bit. If all you do is flat bench, try progressively overloading dumbbells and cables for a while and see how it goes. Potentially, you may also want to go into a very slight surplus in calories to see if your body will therefore be more willing to build extra tissue.
Bro, it took me the first 4 years to have little muscle growth, I know have a very good amount of muscle but I have 7 years lifting, so I am guessing you probably have like 2 years, it takes time as natural to build a nice physique
Androgen receptors play a big role in that, cant really explain it all too well but basically they helpy build muscle with test however some may not be as sensitave like yours
It’s just came a recent study that showed that people who use steroids live longer or the same length as natural people do. But it’s probably because steroid user often have perfect sleep, good nutrition, and workout.
wear any shoes but when u squat u either want weightlifting shoes with heels for better leverages especially if ur ankle mobility is poor or ull want flat for both squats and deadlifts. or u can just be barefoot/in socks for both
Bro doctors told me it was 1100. I got tested at 15 it was 760. And 18 was 1190. I was so concerned bc I had a hard time sleeping, and I was just always on the move, and that led to heart problems eventually and slightly damaged the atrial walls. And I have to take meds now to lower it. So for anyone wanting to boost it just do it naturally and do not worry to much about it. I would rather be a normal range in the lower side than this bc this sucks.
Young men. Don't be like Sam. That's too low of a Bar. Be the best you can be without the stuff. You'll be crying when he's gone early just like my gen lost Zyzz.
yes. his roots are in powerlifting so bro is strong af. meaning he can move more weight, meaning he can look like that after 10 years of training hard. being 5'5 doesn't hurt either
I’m 54, natural and recently had my T levels checked. I’m around the same as you and my free test is around that of a 25 year old. I’m lucky to have very good genetics so no need for gear or TRT thankfully. All this keeps my wife very happy ❤
Jeff, i’m not sure framing it as an educated decision is even appropriate. The vast majority of people who are going to take steroids, do not have masters degree or doctorates, nor have they spoken with an expert. I think this is giving tacit permission for people to take steroids if “it’s reasonable if you make an educated decision.”
Biggest thing that stops me from taking steroids is the aging. I am 24, friend from highschool has taken roids for 2 years now and he looks so much older now. He’s aged 15 years in the last 2-3 years.
Really helpful to know. My levels were below 200 so my doctor put me on TRT and now while they fluctuate somewhat, they're around 450 to 550. I briefly had a spike to 750 which left me feeling extremely energetic but things went back to my normal levels.
I was 55 and had my test checked and it was 275. I was working out at the time making small gains. Went on TRT and in 2 months looked completely different with the same weight training program. Doctor had put me on what he considered a starting dose of bio identical test. Checked my test levels 3 months in and I was at 2000. Said I was a hyper responder. What I will say is high test works and i was more ripped than ever at 55.
Years ago there was a young man at a gym where I worked out. He was in decent shape. All of a sudden his gains went through the roof and he became huge. Was trying to get in shape to compete in a bodybuilding competition. When he first started working out there he had a head full of beautiful blonde hair. After about a year of juicing he was balding at about as fast a rate as he was growing.
I'm a 37 year old man and last time I checked I was in the mid 300s. My dad is 70 years old, does NOT to use steroids or trt, it's not a particularly large man, task levels above 700. Crazy shit.
As someone who has struggled with acne for many years and has finally got it under control, there is no amount of muscle steroids could offer me to consider taking them
There’s also some pretty strong evidence to suggest that many steroids will actually weaken tendons in the long run - certain lifting injuries have a markedly higher incident rate in juiceheads vs their natural counterparts. This pattern is not load dependent either - the natties moving higher weight still experience less bicep tendon tears, quad tears, pec tears etc.
Respect man All the bodybuilding sport has a heart problem amd unhealthy side effects! A lot in the bag to point on vs other natural sports like crossfit mad boxing which the body all around muscle, nerves etc..
I think the psychological effects play a big part too. Seeing all your muscle you've built up start disappearing when you come off the roids can take a mental toll and maybe cause a relapse. I can see it hard for some to just drop the juice.
The problem is that so many young guys (a girls) are just not in a mental place to be able to make decisions that impact long-term health. It is just not possible for kids and 20 something’s to see the world or life that way. So, even if they “know” the risks they can’t make good decisions. We have to keep putting as much honest information out there with all the pluses and minuses. Unfortunately these drugs aren’t going away anytime soon.
there’s a lot of co-variance to other factors, such as those who take steroids, may also make more risky choices overall & as a result have a lower on average live expectancy.

Get more sleep and fix your diet. Make sure you get plenty of zinc, magnesium, vitamin A, and boron. If your diet & general lifestyle is good & you can't find any reasons as to why your test is this low, I'd recommend hopping on TRT.
@@lashedandscornedIt is not extremely low and no doc will prescribe TRT for this
You'd be surprised at how easy it is to get get a TRT script. @@yoendlesss
Low is like 100-200 at age 40.
Stay natural unless bodybuilding paying your bills
best short ive seen from you!
Unless your profession/ability to make money hinges on you being bigger and stronger than everyone else, there is no logical reason to ever take steroids.
Money isn't worth dying quicker for in my opinion. I'd never take steroids
Agreed 👍🏼 dudes ❤
As a personal trainer it's definitely like that but not worth it.
I mean isnt this like a worse or just as bad version of like getting a cheap plastic surgery
@deuceisdaman plastic surgery probably causes less long term damage to your health
You always share great and useable information. Hats off to you Jeff!
Well delivered message Jeff and one that those considering steroid use need to hear. I really appreciated your non-judgemental approach to getting this message out.
I like that he’s not judging he’s just like “be safe and make good decisions”
So I get stronger and die faster?! It's a win win
😂😂 my kind of people
Kinda but if you feel sick you will do everything to fix it. If you want to avoid doctors/drugs harder than last time better to be natty
Makes sense only if u are a 13 years old kid
Stop acting like if you were at the brink of death rn you wouldn’t go thru hell and high water to save yourself
Be careful what you ask for
mine is 700 and i am proud if it! after years of smoking and drinking..( now i am 2 months sober)
Congrats on your sobriety 🎉
Yeah my health is terrible and im above 700, no offense to Jeff, what am I missing that his isn’t at least comparable?
@@kgtl12345 you're missing that the human body is complex and one single hormone value of a single person at a single blood test does not define their entire health state or the capabilities of their body
@@kgtl12345honestly this makes him incredibly sus
@@kgtl12345 Genetics play a huge part. Anything above 300 and below 1000 is the normal range. If it is lower than 300 then it is considered abnormal and your doctor may prescribe you TRT (if you ask)
We need more study on how low testosterone (TRT)
Impact longevity because they did a study on woman who did
(HRT)
And the impact on longevity was insane it boosted their health by miles
This is a great video. Thanks for this Jeff.
Love your style, keep rocking it!
So much respect for Nippard staying natural and educating people on the risks.
I like that you’re respectful to both sides of the coin. Some people hate those that take steroids. Even people who are on TRT and it’s kind of a strange split in fitness.
Amazing content as always
49 year old here. More jacked than most men, never touched that crap, but hard work, good food, killa attitude, research, and above all, faith and resilience, pay dividends. It's truly a tough world out there. What matters is the cleanliness of your heart. Body is very important, but absolutely secondary to the greatest things. Peace ✌🏽 ❤ 🇵🇸
More jacked than most men probably means more jacked than 95% in your case.
Doing gods work bro ❤ keep it up.
Great video. Well presented and respectful 👍
I used to crap on science based training and I don’t really know why, ig I just thought it was easier to do the machines and be in my way, but Jeff has honestly been a huge help to me and many others to see how effective training with a little brains is. Thanks Jeff and awesome physique
Excellent, Jeff. You're a 'clean' body builder, and so is your message. Unfortunately, body building has taken a negative spin for a number of decades now by the use of steroids and other enhancing substances, compromising health. Body building and holistic (clean) living still go hand-in-hand. That's the way of nature. As one example, I'll take a Steve Reeves physique any time over looking like the 'Hulk' (OK for comics but not real life). Thanks.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
My total test is over 700, I lift, eat right, I can’t really increase muscle size, I do gain strength.
Yeah natural test levels aren’t as important as people think. A 300-400 isn’t much different from like an 800, as long as both people feel good and are healthy, cause bodies also have different sensitivities and reactions to hormones
How many years have you been lifting? After the initial gain it does just go real slow.
It does slow down over time. Another aspect to consider is possibly needing to increase your intensity and vary your training a bit. If all you do is flat bench, try progressively overloading dumbbells and cables for a while and see how it goes. Potentially, you may also want to go into a very slight surplus in calories to see if your body will therefore be more willing to build extra tissue.
Bro, it took me the first 4 years to have little muscle growth, I know have a very good amount of muscle but I have 7 years lifting, so I am guessing you probably have like 2 years, it takes time as natural to build a nice physique
Androgen receptors play a big role in that, cant really explain it all too well but basically they helpy build muscle with test however some may not be as sensitave like yours
That anxiety animation was too real! 😅
It’s just came a recent study that showed that people who use steroids live longer or the same length as natural people do. But it’s probably because steroid user often have perfect sleep, good nutrition, and workout.
Please do a video on shoes for the gym
Bro what😂
TYR is good enough, sandals and socks too are good enough
Source: WSM Mitchell Hooper "Moose"
I'd be interested in that.
wear any shoes but when u squat u either want weightlifting shoes with heels for better leverages especially if ur ankle mobility is poor or ull want flat for both squats and deadlifts. or u can just be barefoot/in socks for both
Barefoot is king 🗿
Bro Jeff has edged the thought of taking PEDs a lil too much recently
... By saying it's dangerous and in his opinion not worth the risk?
By showing him almost pinning it
His test is 487 is low for his size and age, doesn’t add up tbh.
Love how u threw Sam in 😂
He def using
The paranoia part showing the back of a dollar😅😅😅 dude Ur creative!
Exponentially highhhhh
Bro doctors told me it was 1100. I got tested at 15 it was 760. And 18 was 1190. I was so concerned bc I had a hard time sleeping, and I was just always on the move, and that led to heart problems eventually and slightly damaged the atrial walls. And I have to take meds now to lower it. So for anyone wanting to boost it just do it naturally and do not worry to much about it. I would rather be a normal range in the lower side than this bc this sucks.
Thanks for the education man
As gear user thank you for just asking people to be aware
Young men. Don't be like Sam. That's too low of a Bar. Be the best you can be without the stuff. You'll be crying when he's gone early just like my gen lost Zyzz.
"...as a lifetime natural bodybuilder".
Yes?
yes. his roots are in powerlifting so bro is strong af. meaning he can move more weight, meaning he can look like that after 10 years of training hard. being 5'5 doesn't hurt either
"the risks are worth it for the goal" and the goal is feeding your dysmorphia
I’m 54, natural and recently had my T levels checked. I’m around the same as you and my free test is around that of a 25 year old. I’m lucky to have very good genetics so no need for gear or TRT thankfully. All this keeps my wife very happy ❤
Jeff, i’m not sure framing it as an educated decision is even appropriate. The vast majority of people who are going to take steroids, do not have masters degree or doctorates, nor have they spoken with an expert.
I think this is giving tacit permission for people to take steroids if “it’s reasonable if you make an educated decision.”
The ones who are going to use aren't looking for anyone's "permission"
Can't believe the muscle you put on with those test levels. Nice job!
He's a fake natty
Need more videos like this
Excellent advice ! Make an informed decision!
Biggest thing that stops me from taking steroids is the aging. I am 24, friend from highschool has taken roids for 2 years now and he looks so much older now. He’s aged 15 years in the last 2-3 years.
Bro thank you! My test was recently lower than usual but its still in good range. But other bodybuilders made me think i needed like 900
Thank you for this information I been on the edge cause my boy wants me to hop on but this officially made that not happen natty 4L 🤞🏽💪🏽
The heart attack / stroke / thromboembolism risk is ridiculously high.
This is why Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Really helpful to know. My levels were below 200 so my doctor put me on TRT and now while they fluctuate somewhat, they're around 450 to 550. I briefly had a spike to 750 which left me feeling extremely energetic but things went back to my normal levels.
below 200?? how old were u
I was 55 and had my test checked and it was 275. I was working out at the time making small gains. Went on TRT and in 2 months looked completely different with the same weight training program. Doctor had put me on what he considered a starting dose of bio identical test. Checked my test levels 3 months in and I was at 2000. Said I was a hyper responder. What I will say is high test works and i was more ripped than ever at 55.
I just stick with anavar which is mild and decent progress tbh amazing pump and strength
my girl said the same thing to me
Years ago there was a young man at a gym where I worked out. He was in decent shape. All of a sudden his gains went through the roof and he became huge. Was trying to get in shape to compete in a bodybuilding competition.
When he first started working out there he had a head full of beautiful blonde hair. After about a year of juicing he was balding at about as fast a rate as he was growing.
I'm a 37 year old man and last time I checked I was in the mid 300s. My dad is 70 years old, does NOT to use steroids or trt, it's not a particularly large man, task levels above 700. Crazy shit.
concise explanation.
HIS TESTOSTERONE LEVELS ARE OVER 9000!!!
As a person who is 27 years old and does not take any steroids and going gym everyday for 4 years. I have a special respect for natural lifters.
"Yeah, I'm almost thrice as likely to have a premature death. But I won a contest about looks. Worth it"
As someone who has struggled with acne for many years and has finally got it under control, there is no amount of muscle steroids could offer me to consider taking them
Jeff having my exact test level is pretty wild I’m not that much older than he is but still pretty crazy
There’s also some pretty strong evidence to suggest that many steroids will actually weaken tendons in the long run - certain lifting injuries have a markedly higher incident rate in juiceheads vs their natural counterparts. This pattern is not load dependent either - the natties moving higher weight still experience less bicep tendon tears, quad tears, pec tears etc.
Paranoia?
"Bro, I'm so jacked, but the cheese is a government spy machine"
Stay Natural Jeff 💪🏻
Bro tryna tenpt me at the start then brought me back to reality 😂
You had me at hairloss.
What I'm going to do is going to hit my natural limit to strength and see if I achieved my goals before ever considering steroids.
Respect man
All the bodybuilding sport has a heart problem amd unhealthy side effects!
A lot in the bag to point on vs other natural sports like crossfit mad boxing which the body all around muscle, nerves etc..
Just the anxiety is reason enough to stay away
Hence,why people say bodybuilders are dumb
I think the psychological effects play a big part too. Seeing all your muscle you've built up start disappearing when you come off the roids can take a mental toll and maybe cause a relapse. I can see it hard for some to just drop the juice.
I’m 57, not in great shape yet. Just got back 585 ng/dl. Fasting and low carb whole food diet.
This is some Bane lore stuff
The problem is that so many young guys (a girls) are just not in a mental place to be able to make decisions that impact long-term health. It is just not possible for kids and 20 something’s to see the world or life that way. So, even if they “know” the risks they can’t make good decisions. We have to keep putting as much honest information out there with all the pluses and minuses. Unfortunately these drugs aren’t going away anytime soon.
Bro sounds intelligent as Mike Mentzer👏🏼
Paranoia and the Dollar got me lmao
I love juice! OJ or any tropical is my fav.
Didn't realize you were natty, not doubting it just speaks volumes of your methods
I went from 250 to 640 in a few weeks... by stopping a product I used for hair growth.
as my dad always said if youre not gonna be smart be strong and i see steroids as an absolute win
there’s a lot of co-variance to other factors, such as those who take steroids, may also make more risky choices overall & as a result have a lower on average live expectancy.
