They used Quest for the Free T and it clocked in at 76.2 with a reference range of 46 - 224. And total T at 524 with a range of 241 - 827. Thoughts?

Whey Protein

I really like the java mocha and the cake batter flavor is awesome! I typically use the 1/2 flavor option and think it offers enough taste without being over done. The owner, Dante, is the person responsible for the DoggCrapp training protocol and he formed the company to try to offer legit...

Gene's Nitric Oxide Stack

I was wondering why you'd take it at bedtime if it's out of your system so quickly? Personally, I'm 41, lift weights (nothing crazy) and train BJJ 3X a week while trying to eat healthy most of the time. My last blood pressure was 117/64 a few weeks ago. No ED, I think, not sure of actual...

Gene's Nitric Oxide Stack

I'm new to all of this so please help me understand. Why would you supplement both in the stack if one's just being converted to the other?

Testosterone levels by age

Initial blood work I realize that all of the necessary tests, like e2, aren't listed and that's simply due to getting my blood work done through the VA. I'm still waiting on the results of the free T, had to be sent out, but I'm wondering what the rest looks like to the experts here and what I...

Testosterone levels by age

Are the charts accurate? I've been reading here a lot and trying to educate myself on TRT. I have all of the symptoms that are indicative of low testosterone but I'm not sure if it's just part of getting older, in my head, or if it's a legit problem that could be helped by TRT. I'm 41 and just...
