Does anyone know of any studies or other authority on how many miles one can run each week (or each workout) without negatively impacting (and hopefully increasing) T levels? I know that the recommendation is to perform HIIT for a big T boost, but I'm talking about running/jogging maybe 4 miles 3-4 times per week (so anywhere from 12-20 miles per week).

I am a long distance runner so I can only offer my own story (study of n=1). When I was in my late 30's and early 40's I was running a lot of marathons (2-3 per year). After a few years my T levels dropped into the 300's. My mileage was in the 30-40 range per week. Coincidence? Normal aging? Never know for sure. I ended up going on TRT in my late 40's and never looked back. However, I now run 15-20 miles per week, no more marathons. I feel healthier overall.

There are studies out there that show ultra athletes (think 50+ miles per week) have worse cardiac outcomes than runners with lower mileage.

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, my issue is that all I can find are the "extremes" - if you don't do anything, that's bad, but if you run more than 50+ miles a week, that's bad too. No one seems to weigh in on the middle ground.
