Something to think about is if cortisol = low testosterone we need to think about cause and effect. Men with high test might be in the military, CEOs or billionaires which are very high stress environments to work in but these men typically have highest testosterone. But their testosterone can make them less stressed as they see things as an interesting challenge as opposed to a threat. My point is, what if testosterone causes low cortisol not that low cortisol causes high testosterone. If this were the case, an unemployed sedentary pot smoker would have very high test because he has low stress levels, but this isn’t the case at all. Being stressed is a decision, choose to run at challenges and stressful situations head on and you will not be stressed but feel empowered and have a surge in testosterone.
good point. I tend to think that when we take risks we have higher testosterone. And the kind of stress that leads to low testosterone is more the chronic stress of e.g. being stuck in a marriage where your wife berates you every day or living upstairs from a nightclub, not the "stress" of an exciting challenge whether that is a rescue mission, giving a pitch to sell your movie idea to someone or planning an event with many moving parts. I think we need more accurate words for the types of stress than just 'stress'. i think you can put yourself in environments that require you to step up and your testosterone goes up in order to help you, whereas if you put yourself in an environment demanding nothing, e.g. if you won the lottery and just hung out and played video games, your testosterone creation goes down because it's not needed. that's my theory anyway
@@tbd407 I agree and would love to see some studies on this - I do think attitude and the practice of running toward challenges with sword drawn, teeth bared can introduce higher testosterone.
You guys are romanticizing "the ideal male" too much. While testosterone is often associated with leadership qualities; ceos, billionares and military men are most of the time lucky or unlucky in the way they got there. Look at elon musk, you might say he got there through hard work, and while you might be right, he still got lucky to be able to achieve what he did. And i would say that he isnt a "man with high test". If you look at popular ceos or billionares, you will see that theres basically not a single which is young, fit and seems to have high test. Theres barely anyone at all. in the same way, the military strips men of their sedentary lifestyle, giving them both exercise/training and "good" diet without any distractions. If any of you trained like in the military, i would guarantee you would be able to fit in. Military men are of course not "muscular", they need to run alot and mostly only train calisthenics, along with not being able to eat too much. The optimal thing for test would probably just be unemployed, going to the gym, doing cardio, sleeping and eating well; with supplements as needed. Having higher test from that might make you want to do something with your life, in which case it can help with both drive and leadership, but that wont guarantee your success in any way. A pot smoker would have low test because he's sedentary, and probably eating badly along with that. In the same way, a highly stressed soldier will probably have low test too due to constant stress, long "shifts", not enough food, not enough rest etc. with an average job you have the luxury of working out, not being stressed out if you focus on it, and having good food to eat every day that you have control over. You can become the ceo in your mind (without the money) if you simply decide to take it seriously. What more do you need for test than having the ability to eat whatever you want, the ability to work out, the ability to sleep as much as you need and the ability to manage your stress from any handful of options. Depending on the job you might sacrifice one of those, if you're stressed out at work constantly theres not much outside of trying to be calm that can help, but that still doesnt mean that you will have low test, it will simply impact you more than average. If you're unemployed you might not get alot of food, but you can still be active and calm without a care in the world.
I swear certain food also, dates, chia seeds, avocados, Brazil nuts, red meat, eggs, grass fed butter and honey and exercise along with magnesium, zinc. Good sleep. I’ve been doing this and feel strong and driven.

having sex everyday/ejaculating isn't good for you either. Drains your energy/life force. A male's body is constantly creating sperm, but sperm regeneration is not immediate. On average, it takes around 74 days to produce new sperm from start to finish
So generally D3 allows the calcium in your body to enter in blood stream. K2 allow calcium to be transport from bloodstream to your bones Magnesium is good for your muscles But in the sense of d3 I know it improves your testosterone (genetic matter) to some extent.

jimmyharris135 ... at what time of the day was blood drawn for this testosterone test? It would seem to play a part in the results. Was also free testosterone tested, or only total testosterone?
@@_RezaTaheri i was already thin on top and just shave my head. i will say after a little more than a year it’s not any thinner. cypionate 25 cc/ml 2x a week
That’s assuring to hear, jst had mine tested, came in at 215, I’m devastated 44 y/o lot of muscle but lately feeling weak n tired. Def gonna take your advice Cheers
I’m 32 274lbs just about 2 months ago started on keto and dropped around 10lbs and have been lifting and running. I can tell my body composition has changed just based on body weight exercise improvements. However the quality of workout seems to be more and more of a struggle to attain as compared to when I was in my 20s. At the risk of sounding like the “back in high school guy” I used to be able to attack 4 mile runs and lift and swim with out having some extraordinary long warm up process. Now not so much, but maybe that’s just with age and the sedentary lifestyle I had just recently led. However I have noticed a massive decrease in strength and muscle mass. It’s become a lot longer of a process to stack muscle on than it ever has before. (That was always relatively easy for me) then I started having really low energy output regardless of how clean I was eating or how much sleep I was getting. I figured I should get my Total T levels checked and sure enough 270ng/dL I was shocked…because my sex drive has been fine. So I’m going to start the 400mg of Tongkat Ali and 600mg of fidogia agrestis and check the T levels in 3 months. Hopefully the combination of weight loss from exercise and these supplements will get my endocrine system the kick it needs. Then I’ll see what happens to the T levels when I don’t take them.
Also 32! Was 291 back in June. Currently at 267. Almost no added sugar consumption, lots of berries, and doing NOOM to really help understand the psychology of moderation. Best wishes mate! Going to see how natural levels are at the end of the year and see If changes are needed.
I'm 48 and was hypogonadal. Now I'm at 586 ng/DL. This book offers insight to things others don't mention. Complete Guide to Testosterone by James Francis
I’ve had a tough year for a few reasons, with a lot of night sleeping 4ish hours. I feel like if I fix that to 7 hours, my T levels will be so vastly improved
I'm surprised that Dr Peter Attia doesn't have a clear opinion on the hormonal effects of ejaculation. Doesn't it increase prolactin and decrease dopamine every time ? Aren't there scientific studies on how abstaining from ejaculation increases athletic performance ?
Sugar and high insulin kills testosterone. And alcohol. But I agree sleep is number one and also stress reduction. Also I notice a huge dip in my levels if I eat too much rubbish. But if I take vitamin D3 and k2, magnesium glycinate and zinc, and eat more fat I feel much better
Hypogonadism is a common disorder in men over 60, and is a type of secondary male hypogonadism (LOH) that results from normal aging. As men age, their hypothalamic-pituitary function and Leydig cell function deteriorate, which can decrease testosterone and sperm production. In fact, more than 60% of men over 65 have free testosterone levels below the normal range for men aged 30 to 35, and 50% of men over 80 have total testosterone levels below normal.
Working out will only decrease it bcs its gonna be used to fix the damaged muscle tissue, sleep is important, eat animal based high fat diet. And thats it. You can also eat alot of organs or fresh grassfed blood, it has alot of vitamin d.

I row, approaching my 40s, and I am loving the fitness. You can make it as tough as you like, or potter along. And in a crew, you go until the team quits.
@@AnonDa I feel like Chris didn't realise explain anything and just moved on too quickly. Maybe something was cut, but just a quick explanation would suffice. NoFap, at least as far as I am aware, hypothesised that testosterone levels spike on the 7th day after ejaculation.
Regular cardio and cold plunges. I have an insomnia issue that I can't seem to fix and though those two things haven't helped me get better sleep, they have improved my blood work greatly and cured my hypertension.
@@priyamhazarika_ Even within the NoFap community, individuals often fail to fully retain their vital energy. Despite efforts to limit porn use, most still indulge in sex multiple times a week. Yet, true mastery lies in complete abstinence. Semen retention is the final boss.
Depends what your diet is now, and what you plan to do to lose weight. But generally eating a well balanced whole food diet will help lose weight and increase testosterone
As long as you’re losing weight in a healthy way. If you’re 200lbs, start running 5 miles a day, and only eat raw vegetables: no. You’ll loose weight fast, but it’s not healthy for you. If you’re 200lbs, you start lifting weights, running every other day, and having a well balanced non processed diet: 25% veg 25% carb, 50% protein: yes. None of it happens over night. Takes about 5-6 weeks of solid dedication to not only see results, but also feel them.
I would firstly see a medical professional (doctor!) To have your blood work done, or get your bloods checks to see what your T levels are before you try anything else.
Just do diaphragmatic breathing with longer exhalations and your stress levels will go down. Not sure how it affects the 't' situation though... Dr. Pete seems to think it will
Most men, at least in American, do not have healthy dietary habits. Which can also lead to low T. Stop eating processed foods (soy is in everything), lift weights, and get solid nights of sleep. ashwagandha has also been shown to raise T levels.
@@DimitriTheBarbarian I’m not talking about a shortcut. It can be used alone, however, it should be used in conjunction with diet, working out, and sleep. Studies (I believe it’s 1600 mg daily) has been shown to raise T levels in men. Also, since it’s a supplement, it should be cycled (4 weeks on 2 weeks off).
@@Ificationer I’ve read that too, but it’s always under the guise of soy increase estrogen in large doses. Most people will argue, since it’s only in large doses, you don’t need to worry about it; however, my wife has a soy allergy which forces us to eat primarily from scratch. I’m the cook, so I’m reading food labels constantly, and soy is in everything processed, and sometimes in meat. Even when it’s not labeled “soy,” it’s in there. Natural flavors, gums, stabilizers, vegetable oil (which is just soy oil), and even the wax that they put on fruit can and usually is derived form soy. That’s at least true in America. So, while men aren’t sitting down and eating a bowl of edamame, they are being exposed to it any time they eat fast food or processed. Soy is a huge resource grown in America and there are farming lobbyists in Washington, who pay for the studies that claim estrogen isn’t caused by soy. So, we’ll probably never know for sure, but I’d stay the F away from it.
For people that don’t believe in no fap, have you ever tried to barbell squat without orgasming for a week, and then tried to barbell squat the day of orgasming. Not the same whatsoever.
You can't just bank on sleep and less stress... in order to get QUALITY SLEEP you need to bust your ass all day either working out, using your hands, moving your body, putting stress on your muscles etc etc. Get YOUR BODY to work and I guarantee you'll sleep well. Also, putting your body into motion like lifting weights will also decrease cortisol levels
On the no fap thing…. Big factor may be scrolling porn vs sex with your partner whom you love deeply. Probably a huge difference and I suspect the porn scrolling has negative affects on T
Agree. (At least a Dr. speaking of testosterone) And his dismissive retort suggests he would seek to debunk it for all the same reasons the world wants to keep men sedated and hooked.
Honestly if all things are tight : Morning cardio on stair mill 40-60 mins 4-5 days a week or equivilent, litre or two of your own brewed green/white/yerba mate tea, preferably cold, \french press black coffee here and there, pot of beef where you have it for a few days where you can scoop a cup a few times a day coupled with some rice/broccoli/cauli/peas...whatever depending on your situation......and more shit here and there.....if you do all that you can have some good tequila throughout the week and still dominate
I'm baffled on how Patrick, a high level athlete, is being trained by someone who is probably a good trainer but not on the same pro level as Patrick. I'm thinking a week with Jeff Cavaliere may be his best bet. I've seen Cavalier train different athletes from Football Players to Wrestlers and he is an amazing trainer. A single training Day with Cavalier, and Patrick may be awakened to what he's missing out on. Cavalier should also train Patrick's trainer.. Even if it's tweaking the routine, I think it would be worth it. Peace
You can do the ABCDE diet as contrived by Torbjorn Akerfeldt, but it. is. f'ing. brutal. Not gonna lie. Your body by design will produce excess testosterone, IGF1 etc when you are consuming extreme amounts of excess calories, but this process shuts down after about 12-14 days. The ABCDE diet was essentially to eat like a pig and train heavy and hard for 2 weeks then diet hard to knock back the excess fat gain. 2 steps forward, 1 step back. It worked, at least for me, but it was honestly the hardest diet I ever tried. I could only do it for one month. Gained 3lbs muscle and bodyfat actually went down a tiny bit but I never tried it again.
I'm wide-eyed right now - that's the very first, and ONLY, time I've EVER heard the name Torbjorn Akerfeldt, since 1995. I thought I was maybe the only person who ever devoured his research - like it was all some kind of a dream. (But one whose truths hold very important ramifications.) I'm still in shock. 😮😊 Wow...
@@GITMachine Isn't that a trip, how being forced to sound out his name in your mind, makes you remember it? Lol - thoughts I've never had the occasion to actually repeat to anyone. Good ol' Torbjorn.
If most people drink coffee, and coffee has been shown to increase cortisol, it seems like that may be target number 2. So either quitting coffee or taking L theanine may cause a huge boost?
How big of an impact does quitting tap water and only drinking spring water make? Tap water contains chlorine, fluoride (which are bad for testosterone) and probably various estrogenic compounds and trace elements of pharmaceuticals, that can't be completely filtered out. Some guy on Reddit said his estrogen went down by 50% after quitting tap water
@@Aurosis people often say bull crap and exaggerate on the Internet, it's best to rely on your local experts like doctors and scientists. Becoming a good critical eye on information is something that takes time and experience, I don't have it but it's why we pay experts like the above so much. You don't want some guy on the Internet fixing your health!!!
Clomid increases LH and LH increases testosterone, so you can achieve higher T through that but Clomid block estrogen receptors and therefore will decrease libido but you can have other testosterone benefits as well. It has some other side effects so it is not a good long term option
Rocky Balboa's gnarled boxing manager Mickey once stated: “women weaken legs”. The origin of this belief probably relates to the idea that semen contains a cerebrospinal substance - (as proposed by the ancient Greeks) - or divine energy, as suggested by traditional Chinese medicine. How has the guest never heard of this, it has been a belief throughout all of history?
I think Chris did NOFAP dirty by not touching on the fact it really overlaps with getting off those dirty websites that men are having addiction issues with...
Dang, you really botched the quick explanation of no-fap. Here is a unbiased quick and short: Part of it has to do with the normal dopamine detox culture, which is self explanatory. Another part is based on scant evidence that abstaining from orgasm can temporarily elevate t-levels for men. This along with quite a lot of positive personal testimony online, have played heavily into the general mens' anti-modernist online movement online that basically considers it a right of passage.
OK, let me clear something up about this no-fap nonsense. Abstaining from cracking-off gives the impression of a energy and focus burst because your body is creating a craving to breed. It's essentially an increase in dopamine creating a sense of motivation, i.e. energy. Beating off should be done in moderation, but ultimately you don't have to abstain very long to attain that feeling of motivation. So basically, no-fap is a deceptive load of nonsense. It also doesn't lower your testosterone. After ejaculation your testosterone slightly lowers for a couple of hours then returns to baseline (this has been proven several times in research).
Yes. As with all activity that places a healthy demand on one’s internal organ system, squats will drive the production of our natural growth hormones, and keep our metabolism fired up. Doing proper squats ( style, rep, load, volume, frequency, etc) for one’s age, present health and goals is equally important in order to reap the rewards.

How did peter attia not know about no fap? What stone has he been living under? I understand some other fields not knowing about it, but especially since he talks about testasterone and bio hacking ect... and is a MD. seem to me he should have at least heard about it.

Cheers
I’m 32
274lbs
just about 2 months ago started on keto and dropped around 10lbs and have been lifting and running. I can tell my body composition has changed just based on body weight exercise improvements. However the quality of workout seems to be more and more of a struggle to attain as compared to when I was in my 20s.
At the risk of sounding like the “back in high school guy” I used to be able to attack 4 mile runs and lift and swim with out having some extraordinary long warm up process. Now not so much, but maybe that’s just with age and the sedentary lifestyle I had just recently led. However I have noticed a massive decrease in strength and muscle mass. It’s become a lot longer of a process to stack muscle on than it ever has before. (That was always relatively easy for me) then I started having really low energy output regardless of how clean I was eating or how much sleep I was getting.
I figured I should get my Total T levels checked and sure enough 270ng/dL
I was shocked…because my sex drive has been fine. So I’m going to start the 400mg of Tongkat Ali and 600mg of fidogia agrestis and check the T levels in 3 months.
Hopefully the combination of weight loss from exercise and these supplements will get my endocrine system the kick it needs. Then I’ll see what happens to the T levels when I don’t take them.
Also 32! Was 291 back in June. Currently at 267. Almost no added sugar consumption, lots of berries, and doing NOOM to really help understand the psychology of moderation. Best wishes mate! Going to see how natural levels are at the end of the year and see If changes are needed.
If you see this - How's the Tongkat + Fadogia going, so far, you think?
If your T is low, more sleep is way more important than training. In fact, training will drive it down farther if you're not sleeping well.
I'm 48 and was hypogonadal. Now I'm at 586 ng/DL. This book offers insight to things others don't mention. Complete Guide to Testosterone by James Francis
Did you fix it without drugs? just by lifestyle changes?
"Therefore, fixing that, is far more beneficial than the litany of supplements out there" 0:50
I’ve had a tough year for a few reasons, with a lot of night sleeping 4ish hours. I feel like if I fix that to 7 hours, my T levels will be so vastly improved
I'm surprised that Dr Peter Attia doesn't have a clear opinion on the hormonal effects of ejaculation. Doesn't it increase prolactin and decrease dopamine every time ? Aren't there scientific studies on how abstaining from ejaculation increases athletic performance ?
Sugar and high insulin kills testosterone. And alcohol. But I agree sleep is number one and also stress reduction. Also I notice a huge dip in my levels if I eat too much rubbish. But if I take vitamin D3 and k2, magnesium glycinate and zinc, and eat more fat I feel much better
Caffeine is the issue, no-one talks about. Why? Coz most of are addicted to it
@@partlysimpson5154 iv always felt caffeine is bad for testosterone do u agree
Good diet w/supplements, exercise on a regular basis, and good sleep is the surest way to keep your testosterone at your personal best level.
Hypogonadism is a common disorder in men over 60, and is a type of secondary male hypogonadism (LOH) that results from normal aging. As men age, their hypothalamic-pituitary function and Leydig cell function deteriorate, which can decrease testosterone and sperm production. In fact, more than 60% of men over 65 have free testosterone levels below the normal range for men aged 30 to 35, and 50% of men over 80 have total testosterone levels below normal.
Yep. Evolution did not prepare everyone to live to 80.
I work rotating day and nights shifts in a high stress job...I'm basically screwed
Working out will only decrease it bcs its gonna be used to fix the damaged muscle tissue, sleep is important, eat animal based high fat diet. And thats it. You can also eat alot of organs or fresh grassfed blood, it has alot of vitamin d.
I went from 334 to 960 in around 3 months. All natural. The truth. This book should be essential reading for all men
Complete guide to testosterone by james Francis
Can you give me the link to the book if it has any free version or pdf?
@@priyamhazarika_ Its a book generated by AI
Amazing. Peter is who and what we need today
Fantastic sound quality
TLDR of the first 2mins: There's no way around it. Get some sleep. I really appreciate the way he wrapped the subject back around using the symptoms.
the studio goes absolutely bananas
combining tongkat and forskholi has changed the game for me
Thanks a lot for sharing! Can you please share which brand your purchase the Forskholi from?
I also found that Fadogia Agrestis helps
I row, approaching my 40s, and I am loving the fitness. You can make it as tough as you like, or potter along. And in a crew, you go until the team quits.
Rowing is incredibly good exercise.
Peter's response to the nofap questions 😂 "what does that have to do with T levels?"
He was unecessarily rude/dismissive there.
@@AnonDa welcome to the world of science
@@AnonDaI think he was honestly questioning the reasoning.
@@AnonDa I feel like Chris didn't realise explain anything and just moved on too quickly.
Maybe something was cut, but just a quick explanation would suffice.
NoFap, at least as far as I am aware, hypothesised that testosterone levels spike on the 7th day after ejaculation.
@@AnonDa I would say neccesarily
Doesn’t caffeine increase cortisol for hours after you drink it? I feel much better after quitting.
Brazil nuts. Lift heavy and compound.
What about watching movies from the 70s?!
Lol underrated comment
😆😆
I THINK TAKING DHEA IS BENEFICIAL. MY WIFE CURRENTLY TAKES DHEA AND SHE HAS MORE ENERGY, MORE FOCUS, AND I BARELY NOTICE HER MUSTACHE!
HCG... Hcg Monotherapy is awesome for borderline cases of hypogonadal individuals. Keep the TRT till ya really need it.
Ejaculation is directly related to loss of tremendous nutrients and energy. Our brain and semen composition is very similar
Weight training is the best way! No doubt!
How do I naturally reduce cortisol (given that I cannot change my environment too much in terms of stress/pressure)
Regular cardio and cold plunges. I have an insomnia issue that I can't seem to fix and though those two things haven't helped me get better sleep, they have improved my blood work greatly and cured my hypertension.
semen retention is a totally different thing to nofap
How so
@@priyamhazarika_ Even within the NoFap community, individuals often fail to fully retain their vital energy. Despite efforts to limit porn use, most still indulge in sex multiple times a week. Yet, true mastery lies in complete abstinence. Semen retention is the final boss.
@@Aurosis lol no!
@@priyamhazarika_ semen retention is no orgasm, but nofap is basically an anti-porn movement despite the name; it's not anti-sex or orgasm

Does weight loss make a difference?
Depends what your diet is now, and what you plan to do to lose weight. But generally eating a well balanced whole food diet will help lose weight and increase testosterone
yes. depending on how much body fat% you are having
Huge difference, personal experience
As long as you’re losing weight in a healthy way.
If you’re 200lbs, start running 5 miles a day, and only eat raw vegetables: no. You’ll loose weight fast, but it’s not healthy for you.
If you’re 200lbs, you start lifting weights, running every other day, and having a well balanced non processed diet: 25% veg 25% carb, 50% protein: yes.
None of it happens over night. Takes about 5-6 weeks of solid dedication to not only see results, but also feel them.
Fat has been clearly shown to reduce testosterone. Yes.
Workout also increases testosterone. So double yes.
I would firstly see a medical professional (doctor!) To have your blood work done, or get your bloods checks to see what your T levels are before you try anything else.
Straight from the more plates more dates interview. Give Derek a shoutout Pete.
Ok great! So now we gotta focus on what increases cortisol and do whatever it takes to bring that down
Just do diaphragmatic breathing with longer exhalations and your stress levels will go down. Not sure how it affects the 't' situation though... Dr. Pete seems to think it will
Most men, at least in American, do not have healthy dietary habits. Which can also lead to low T.
Stop eating processed foods (soy is in everything), lift weights, and get solid nights of sleep.
ashwagandha has also been shown to raise T levels.
I've read that soy isn't as devastating to testosterone as some think, what are your thoughts?
You lost me at Ashwaganda. There is no miracle drug and no shortcuts
@@DimitriTheBarbarian I’m not talking about a shortcut. It can be used alone, however, it should be used in conjunction with diet, working out, and sleep.
Studies (I believe it’s 1600 mg daily) has been shown to raise T levels in men.
Also, since it’s a supplement, it should be cycled (4 weeks on 2 weeks off).
@@Ificationer I’ve read that too, but it’s always under the guise of soy increase estrogen in large doses.
Most people will argue, since it’s only in large doses, you don’t need to worry about it; however, my wife has a soy allergy which forces us to eat primarily from scratch. I’m the cook, so I’m reading food labels constantly, and soy is in everything processed, and sometimes in meat. Even when it’s not labeled “soy,” it’s in there. Natural flavors, gums, stabilizers, vegetable oil (which is just soy oil), and even the wax that they put on fruit can and usually is derived form soy. That’s at least true in America.
So, while men aren’t sitting down and eating a bowl of edamame, they are being exposed to it any time they eat fast food or processed.
Soy is a huge resource grown in America and there are farming lobbyists in Washington, who pay for the studies that claim estrogen isn’t caused by soy. So, we’ll probably never know for sure, but I’d stay the F away from it.
@@moosechuckleYou dont cycle it lol. Same thing for people who think you should load or cycle creatine, you dont.
This is why running and long form steady state cardio kills all your gains
So your advice for men is sleep more & remove stress. Ha wow thank you so much
I've never been this early on such a well known podcast clip!
Is that your biggest win? 😢
@@craigdgriffiths6206 It is!
@@craigdgriffiths6206 It is!
I’m not a NoFap enthusiast, but I know enough about it to know that he severely misrepresented it here.
Mines 170 ng/dl. Im 47, healthy and fit and living on a carnivore diet. Not sure why im low, but have a really low sex drive.
New girlfriend bro ,thank me later
How does your wife's boyfriend feel about it?
For people that don’t believe in no fap, have you ever tried to barbell squat without orgasming for a week, and then tried to barbell squat the day of orgasming. Not the same whatsoever.
I coom everyday and I also squat 315
You can't just bank on sleep and less stress... in order to get QUALITY SLEEP you need to bust your ass all day either working out, using your hands, moving your body, putting stress on your muscles etc etc. Get YOUR BODY to work and I guarantee you'll sleep well. Also, putting your body into motion like lifting weights will also decrease cortisol levels
On the no fap thing…. Big factor may be scrolling porn vs sex with your partner whom you love deeply. Probably a huge difference and I suspect the porn scrolling has negative affects on T
The LMNT is not free, it's $20.. misleading advert
It's hard to believe he hasn't heard of no fap...
Yeah, no way he hasn’t heard of it.
I find it hard to believe that a Dr has not heard about NoFap
Agree. (At least a Dr. speaking of testosterone) And his dismissive retort suggests he would seek to debunk it for all the same reasons the world wants to keep men sedated and hooked.
because he has a life and isnt on reddit all day
I think he lied
Great video.
Honestly if all things are tight : Morning cardio on stair mill 40-60 mins 4-5 days a week or equivilent, litre or two of your own brewed green/white/yerba mate tea, preferably cold, \french press black coffee here and there, pot of beef where you have it for a few days where you can scoop a cup a few times a day coupled with some rice/broccoli/cauli/peas...whatever depending on your situation......and more shit here and there.....if you do all that you can have some good tequila throughout the week and still dominate
And so what u do with that Testosterone? I mean.. It seems that people are obsessing over some numbers that mean nothing
Found the spambot
I'm baffled on how Patrick, a high level athlete, is being trained by someone who is probably a good trainer but not on the same pro level as Patrick. I'm thinking a week with Jeff Cavaliere may be his best bet. I've seen Cavalier train different athletes from Football Players to Wrestlers and he is an amazing trainer.
A single training Day with Cavalier, and Patrick may be awakened to what he's missing out on. Cavalier should also train Patrick's trainer.. Even if it's tweaking the routine, I think it would be worth it. Peace
How about getting rid of insulin resistance? Do to much insulin affects testosterone.?
did anybody notice Chris laugh and go straight face at 06:00 Zuckerberg reptile cousin behavior
Test Cypionate 300mg a week. It’s a natural compound.
Run an AI like arimestane for cortisol and estrogen 😂
You can do the ABCDE diet as contrived by Torbjorn Akerfeldt, but it. is. f'ing. brutal. Not gonna lie.
Your body by design will produce excess testosterone, IGF1 etc when you are consuming extreme amounts of excess calories, but this process shuts down after about 12-14 days. The ABCDE diet was essentially to eat like a pig and train heavy and hard for 2 weeks then diet hard to knock back the excess fat gain. 2 steps forward, 1 step back. It worked, at least for me, but it was honestly the hardest diet I ever tried. I could only do it for one month. Gained 3lbs muscle and bodyfat actually went down a tiny bit but I never tried it again.
I'm wide-eyed right now - that's the very first, and ONLY, time I've EVER heard the name Torbjorn Akerfeldt, since 1995. I thought I was maybe the only person who ever devoured his research - like it was all some kind of a dream. (But one whose truths hold very important ramifications.)
I'm still in shock. 😮😊 Wow...
@@justinklenk Not gonna lie I remembered his name as I went for a deep dive into his research decades ago, but I had to Google how to spell it :)
@@GITMachine
Isn't that a trip, how being forced to sound out his name in your mind, makes you remember it? Lol - thoughts I've never had the occasion to actually repeat to anyone.
Good ol' Torbjorn.
Lift weights, good sleep & good quality red meat before you start anything 👍
If most people drink coffee, and coffee has been shown to increase cortisol, it seems like that may be target number 2. So either quitting coffee or taking L theanine may cause a huge boost?
How big of an impact does quitting tap water and only drinking spring water make?
Tap water contains chlorine, fluoride (which are bad for testosterone) and probably various estrogenic compounds and trace elements of pharmaceuticals, that can't be completely filtered out. Some guy on Reddit said his estrogen went down by 50% after quitting tap water
None
@@ando5899 But what about the guy on Reddit?
@@Aurosis people often say bull crap and exaggerate on the Internet, it's best to rely on your local experts like doctors and scientists. Becoming a good critical eye on information is something that takes time and experience, I don't have it but it's why we pay experts like the above so much. You don't want some guy on the Internet fixing your health!!!
Fun fact. Estrogen is anabolic as fuck
And also watch the movie Predator
Shoot I’m 43 and my T was at 86
How to lower cortisol and how can you measure?
What about patients that were prescribed clomid. Do these same elements work on affecting/stimulating the FSH and LH hormones?
Clomid increases LH and LH increases testosterone, so you can achieve higher T through that but Clomid block estrogen receptors and therefore will decrease libido but you can have other testosterone benefits as well. It has some other side effects so it is not a good long term option
Rocky Balboa's gnarled boxing manager Mickey once stated: “women weaken legs”. The origin of this belief probably relates to the idea that semen contains a cerebrospinal substance - (as proposed by the ancient Greeks) - or divine energy, as suggested by traditional Chinese medicine. How has the guest never heard of this, it has been a belief throughout all of history?
I think Chris did NOFAP dirty by not touching on the fact it really overlaps with getting off those dirty websites that men are having addiction issues with...
No Fap - Gen. Jack D Ripper was ahead of his time, "I don't avoid women, Mandrake, but I do deny them my essence."
There's nothing like watching Peter Attia talk over people's heads to show off how smart he believes he is, except reading his articles.
Dang, you really botched the quick explanation of no-fap. Here is a unbiased quick and short:
Part of it has to do with the normal dopamine detox culture, which is self explanatory. Another part is based on scant evidence that abstaining from orgasm can temporarily elevate t-levels for men. This along with quite a lot of positive personal testimony online, have played heavily into the general mens' anti-modernist online movement online that basically considers it a right of passage.
What zoom would that be... 100x
lol “I don’t even know what that is”
The no FAP part 😂
What? An actual Dr. that talks about fixing a solution instead of a magic pill…. Imagine that?
Almost impossible to get LMNT here in Germany
OK, let me clear something up about this no-fap nonsense. Abstaining from cracking-off gives the impression of a energy and focus burst because your body is creating a craving to breed. It's essentially an increase in dopamine creating a sense of motivation, i.e. energy. Beating off should be done in moderation, but ultimately you don't have to abstain very long to attain that feeling of motivation. So basically, no-fap is a deceptive load of nonsense. It also doesn't lower your testosterone. After ejaculation your testosterone slightly lowers for a couple of hours then returns to baseline (this has been proven several times in research).
Orgasms are healthy
Jerking it to another man having sex on a screen is NOT healthy
Big difference!
Hmm podcast during night at the museum
Squats?
Yes. As with all activity that places a healthy demand on one’s internal organ system, squats will drive the production of our natural growth hormones, and keep our metabolism fired up.
Doing proper squats ( style, rep, load, volume, frequency, etc) for one’s age, present health and goals is equally important in order to reap the rewards.
Squats and lunges will boost testosterone production guaranteed!
What is this format?

How to get higher testosterone? Take testosterone. That is literally the only way. These click bait videos may talk about healthy habits to incorporate but you cannot just increase ones testosterone so a level where you would see it go insane in a chart.
