Interesting point to contemplate: Islamic prayers is the best circadian rhythm adjustment activity. Look into the sun phases people have to walk to the mosque at for prayers: At sun rise, noon, midday, sunset, and evening. The exposure to the different sunlight wave lengths at those different phases create a perfectly adjusted circadian rhythm. A theory i've been dying to bring up to a neuroscientist and see what they think.

Even filtered water has probably much more impurities than that. When the container actually matters is when one stores something acidic like tomato sauce for days, in that case even stainless steel will leach nickel so a glass container is the best option.

The best way is to detox your body with at least 12 months on raw fruit. After decades of eating cooked foods we have all stagnated our lymphatic system which is our cellular sewer system, burned and corroded our glands and organs with acidic mucus which is created by eating cooked foods. I am currently on 4.5 years on raw fruit. I cured psoriasis and arthritis in just over 12 months. I lost around 20lbs of muscle because the body will dispose of all cells built on inferior foods. It is an inevitable part of the regeneration process. I have rebuilt the muscle with watermelon, oranges, bananas, medjool dates and coconut. I have eaten no protein sources and that is another bs con. It is promoted to make you sick as protein is extremely acidic.

Filter your drinking water. Here’s my anecdotal story. I’ve had low T since I was 20 (I’m 36 now). Total T was always around 330-360 ng/dl. Recently went to the doctor to get rechecked, however, this time Dr checked my total estrogen. Total testosterone was 358, and my estrogen was above high normal at 218! (range for this lab is 70-215) I thought: I eat organic, train heavy, stay away from plastics, have used hemp soap for years, don’t drink alcohol, get good sleep, supplement with zinc, magnesium, Vitamin D etc. etc. However, I was completely ignorant about filtering my water. Started filtering my water with a high quality charcoal filter that claims to remove fluoride, estrogens, etc. Two months later, my estrogen dropped from 218 to 110, and total test went up from 358 to 467. Estrogen dropped by about 50% and testosterone went up about 25%. That was the ONLY thing I changed. My testosterone has never been this high (yes I know it’s still on the low end of normal). I’ve continued to try and eliminate environmental estrogen exposure even further, and I’ll soon be going back to see if things have continued to improved. It’s astonishing that our drinking water can change our hormone profile so drastically.

You're definitely right about the overall benefit of filtering your water, but I didn't really consider that it might be affecting my testosterone.

Bro, thanks for the heads-up . . . . . . makes total sense to me. We're drinking the very same water we use to flush our toilets. Women dumping dirty tampons & maxi-pads, birth control pills, urinating while ovulating-menstruation etc. So if we're crushing 3 - 4 liters of water everyday, that's a helluva lotta unwanted estrogen we're putting into our bodies. Incidentally, estrogen is an antagonist - testosterone. If our estrogen levels are high, our body's test production is suppressed and visa versa. Translation.....I'm getting a a damn filter ASAP!!!!

I’m 52 and I’ve been weight training for 39 years. The trick I use to pump testosterone is to hyperventilate 10 or 15 times before doing a heavy lift. Somehow that supercharges muscles. Doing 120% in short bursts using this method drives testosterone levels higher. I also imagine someone trying to hurt my family in my mind just before I do a lift to trick the mind into squeezing testosterone. There’s no way for me to obviously measure the effect, but I can tell you it’s night and day when I do my lifts and this procedure built a lot of muscle on my body

Nice!- This for sure works. I do the same. Hope, you don't mind me daisy chaining off this- your comment was unique and the best I found! Wim hof breathing protocol. I think it's something to do with oxygenizing blood you def. fatigue slower. Also heavy compound lifts need filled diaphragms to reduce injury. I even try forcing more air in between hard reps and notice extended endurance and filler diaphragm. I wouldn't be suprised if someone soon comes up with a daily protocol. Like morning/noon/night and def. immediately before lifts- Olympic level athletes are likely already all over this- the body in a more alkaline homeostasis recovers faster, which converts to strength. I'd be curious to see if one prioritized Alkaline foods over acidic if this wouldn't have a similar effect on strength gains. Also, to add to this. B/c I didn't see this listed and know it works. Overdose on veggies to get full, up front ea. meal. Minimize carbs, prioritize vegetables over protien but still hit the 1g per lb on protein. Veggies first priority- For 2 reasons- 2nd reason- b/c vitamin/minerals absorption needs to hit critical mass and go way beyond the RDA to have affects on Test/strength. And primary reason for eating veggies is to maximize stomach real estate for good fat consumption. Coconut oil/Nuts/Avocados they will make you strong and you can eat more without getting too fat if you are eating carbs only minimal and with dinner to help induce sleep. My veggie of choice is organic spinach boiled before I put into shakes (drain & chuck the water). You get all the vitamins plus ecdysterone which is related to strength gains (there were talks of WADA banning spinach due to scientific studies) that tells me enough to consume it and test the placebo for myself. And the last recipe is the fluff no hard core mf's care to pay attention to, or at least I didn't in my twenties. Prioritize legs/deadlifts Placebo/Maxims- Do less shit wrong. You know the protocol for sleep/caffeine/daylight/alcohol/no sugar- stop messing up first before looking outward for crutches, hold yourself accountable. It's how you should approach everything- mess up less and grow the foundation. Movement is healing- many elderly rapidly decline after a hip injury because there in bed. Blood flow is key, specifically get it into areas you just trained. In other words, you had a killer leg workout, you should be doing a few sets of body weight squats over the next few days to accelerate healing for your next leg workout. No matter what you're protocol is believe in it fully, that it's working this is the powerhouse of thought, it beats cancer, it catalyzes progress and is a gain maker. And if it's not working you will know. By not getting confused. You parse out trials of new supplements with standardize behavior - to protect yourself from becoming overwhelmed with doubt as too many variations often lead to. Respect your decisions- journal and note take all details. If you don't, you'll likely waste years toiling with the same mistakes brought about from a whimsical mindset.

*Here’s my protocol (average 900-1100 ng/DL test levels):* 1. *Animal based diet* - grass fed red meat, fresh fish, oysters, eggs, ghee/tallow, raw milk (4000 calories approx) 2. *No plastic* - I use glass bottles, glass cookware, stainless steel or cast iron pans, etc 3. *I mainly drink rain water or bottled sparkling mineral water* - I feel shit and cognitively slower drinking tap water. 4. Sunlight - vitamin D3 (10,000 IU daily) 5. Raw Onion & Garlic - great for immune functions and studies show correlations to increased testosterone 6. Oysters & Fish (ZINC) - combined with enough food ensures your thyroid is operating effectively this will ensure you’re producing testosterone and sperm 7. Engage in combat sports - harder environments will increase testosterone. 8. Change your training - week 1: do 65% max daily and then week 2: do heavier lifts every second day. Repeat 9. Decrease stress - stop hanging around people who make your life worse and stop caring about your job etc 10. Stop using Teflon pans etc they’re cancerous and estrogenic. 11. Stop using shampoos and soaps and fragrances that are estrogenic and cancerous. Use natural oils (e.g. coconut oil etc). 12. *keep your balls cooler* - overheating can cause infertility and will logically cause lower testosterone. E.g. a lot of chefs and mechanics are infertile due to heat around testicles. 14. *No processed foods.* No soy, low sugar, organic fruits only in season. *I’m 6ft3 and was 440lbs at my max.* Currently 340lbs cutting to 290lbs. Obviously my testosterone is higher around optimal bodyfat which for me is 16-18% because I’m a bigger man. 12-16% bf is ideal for most men. More fat is necessary when you have more muscle for optimal performance and daily life. Especially for testosterone and sperm production.

Just to add to the vitamin deficiency mention. I had an intolerances test done by a lab (from hair samples), and the results included a breakdown of vitamins and minerals I was deficient in. It was interesting marrying up those things I was deficient in against food stuffs I have levels of intolerance to. One example was I was deficient in B1, but that confused me as I eat a LOT of beef. An app such as the one described in the video wouldn't have identified I was low in B1 because I eat so much beef. I then found beef on my intolerance list, which described that my ability to process beef was likely low. So I began to supplement with B1 tablets. Only a low dose, within the daily recommended, but 6 months later after another intolerances test, B1 didn't feature in my deficiencies. So I would appear to process B1 in tablet form well, but not so well from the food stuff (beef) itself. Make of that what you will, but I found it really helpful and good to know.

One thing that needs to be mentioned is body fat %. It doesn't matter how organic, plastic-free, and whole-food your diet is if you're like 25% body fat. You absolutely need to be in a healthy body fat range for optimal testosterone production. For males, this is usually no more than 15%. Having a higher BF% will contribute to more systemic inflammation due to adipose tissue secreting adipokines, which is why losing weight lowers inflammatory markers like CRP. Having a higher BF% also decreases insulin sensitivity, which is important for muscle growth. Don't listen to the anti-carbohydrate crowd who say that keto is the only way to reduce inflammation and insulin resistance. It's not. Decades of research have shown that a simple caloric deficit does the same exact thing. But if you want to use keto as a modality for that caloric deficit, have at it. Having a higher BF% also puts you at a worse position when it comes to your lipid profiles. You don't want risk factors like high triglycerides. Not to mention, you just look like crap aesthetically. DO NOT BULK IF YOU'RE OVER 15% BF.

We’re time what’s good for us and what’s bad for us. The eventual impact of anything on you is magnified by your perception and relationship to it. Sugar is significantly more detrimental when accompanied with copious amounts of grief

Clean slate is obsolete and inaccurate. Research it. We commenting with all kinds of inclinations and characteristics that impact us based on innate proclivities. Ancestral trauma is real. Research mice tested for trauma based on smell-electric shock. They were bred w mice not exposed to smell-shock exposure. Offspring for 4 generations reacted to the smell with terror.

Spot on. They are using strategies to keep us in a stressed state, a constant sate of fear, the demands that are put on even the lower levels of employment are 10 times what they were a few decades ago. The demands on us in life generally these days is a hell of a lot more than my parents generation, this in turn leads to elevated cortisol levels, leading to heart and respiratory problems. It also effects the mental state. I don’t think most people understand the toll that living in these times takes on your general health both physically and mentally. We need to start rolling back the amount of time we spend on working to attain the useless crap that the elites and peer pressure from our associates say we need to be happy or we think we need to have to be accepted by those people. It’s a cycle we need to remove from our lives, want less free up time and live healthy, and be kind to your mind.

The workout itself is the number one factor in my experience. (other than genetics). The more intense the more testosterone produced. My natural test level was less than 150, I restarted training HIT after a 8 year layoff, and after 4 or 5 months my natural testosterone (zero supplements- didn’t follow any proper diet) was 493. My strength went up every set of every workout, and gained 18 pounds (regained) while losing a good amount of body fat. Had I been following a decent diet, I probably would have done much better. My natural estrogen was 27. Never used gear in my life, just killed it in the gym Mike Mentzer style and the results came every workout consistently & predictably. Some people can’t do it though, it’s too intense, but I think you should try it. Once you get used to going to absolute failure you get used to it and becomes easy. Back when I first started I wasted 18 months lifting conventionally and gained zero muscle or strength. Never again.

I get that this is just an anecdotal observation and not a scientific statement - but I’m surely not the only one who has noticed that there are plenty of people who don’t optimize any of this stuff whose T levels are clearly through the roof. In particular low income people whose parents couldn’t afford to make healthy food choices while they were growing up, and were exposed to a lot of processed foods, sugars, plastics, etc. And they still turn out to be the type of guys who seem like they can just look at weights and gain muscle. Like genetics just seem to be a factor that is more impactful by several orders of magnitude

That's because genetics trump all of the above.

That is correct, and the reason there are no YT videos about genetics is because you can't do anything about it. Focusing on what you can change is generally a winning strat.

I go to bed around 21:00-21:30.. because that's when I get sleepy. Simple as that My body clock is so good that I wake up at about 05:40 even when I'm on holiday for two weeks. I usually go back to bed if I don't _have_ to get up. Body clocks are great, so accurate. I'm definitely _not_ a fitness freak though, or someone who worries about my testosterone level.

Getting back to sleep is bad actually because you start the cycle of sleep again from the start, so you need another 8 hours of sleep if you dont want to wake up tired.

I'm turning 69 today. I'll be eating breakfast shortly at 7AM. It'll be a nice ribeye. I'll eat my last meal at 3pm. I'll usually eat according to my weight and energy expenditure through the day. I'll usually have 3 jumbo eggs and 4 strips of bacon when my expenditure is low and my weight, in the morning, is where I want it to be. I am carnivore. My videos are doing well and my energy is also doing well. I am gaining strength.

In the uk in winter it's light at 9am and dark at 3pm, I'd be sleeping 18 hours a day haha. We only have sun for a few days each year, the rest of the time it's grey and rainy haha. Also some people are nightowls, well only a few percent but some are. I work shifts too and many people also work nights, so up the creek on that one. Would love to try one of these natural light lamps, be cool if they work well. Increasing test is common sense; eat good fats and food, quit smoking and cut out boozing, reduce stress, don't have some nagging girlfriend who demands your time because she's needy, socialise and have a laugh, exercise and lift weights, avoid plastic processed food, and get out in nature. Big one for me is going in the sauna, I get the biggest stonkers ever after having a good 20 minutes in the sauna followed by a cold shower.

You're talking apples and oranges. Maxing your test naturally will never get you as big as taking PEDs. People take PEDs for different reasons most of which are to be bigger than is naturally possible. Just because someone takes PEDs does not invalidate their knowledge of a subject
