Show Notes/Description:
I first took testosterone at 21 with the intention of being Mr. Olympia, and I still take it today. So this is not an anti-testosterone episode. It’s the one the TRT clinics won’t give you.
Almost 70 percent of men on supplemental testosterone don’t actually feel better, and nobody tells you that when they bill your card and drop ship the vial.
In this solo episode of the Muscle Intelligence Podcast I lay out why:
- Low testosterone is a light on the dashboard, and TRT on its own just turns the light off.
- The four upstream problems driving your current levels.
- The REAL purpose of testosterone according to science (and why you MUST optimize your levels)
- Why current reference ranges tell you NOTHING
- I close with my Max T protocol: how to train, eat and live to maximize your testosterone before you hop on TRT.
Here’s what skipping this costs you: you become the guy asking the clinic to bump him from 200 to 300 milligrams, wondering why nothing changed. The question this episode answers: if you’re going to take testosterone, what has to be true first for it to work?
