I'd like to know what everyone's training splits, duration and intensity.. any other variables, look like? What does your protein intake plan, do you implement fasting? How important is testosterone in protein synthesis, how important is training hard?

Trained chest on Sunday. Always do dumbbell press on flat bench for several years since barbell work wreaked havoc on my elbows. 42.5kg warm up felt a twinge in the right pec but thought it was just warming up. Moved to 57.5kg and felt ok, then to 67.5kg for only the third time in the past...

I saw this tweet on Twitter from Doctor Jonathan Clavell. Hope men here find it inspirational. 81 yo: doc, this #Testosterone I've been taking for a year is great Me: how so? Pt: my mind is sharper, losing fat, muscles are stronger. Even my doc told my diabetes and cholesterol are better Me...

I have had total T levels of 500, 1000 and 1500 at different times on TRT. My free T has ranged over a similar range. I have never seen it discussed, but do you get more muscle growth with each level of higher total T assuming of that if you double total T you also double free T. Double is...

Hi I have a very basic question: Assuming that through TRT I as a 46M gets my test levels to those of an 18 year old (something like Total T: 30 nmol/L and Free T 720 pmol/L), does this allow me to build muscle like an 18 year old could? Forget supraphysiological doses, I'm enquiring only for...

We lose muscle mass and strength as we age. This is known as sarcopenia. Muscle loss could begin in our 30s. Genetics and lifestyle play a major factor and there is a lot of inherited individual variability There are several reasons why we become weaker: Our nervous system becomes more...

Experienced strength athletes lose fat by intermittent fasting, not muscle mass or strength Strength athletes perform no better or worse if they do time-restricted feeding we wrote yesterday, based on an American study in which the participants did weight training for the first time in their...

I highly recommend this video. It is a little long but worth it if you want to learn more about what is the best protein for muscle growth

This super elegantly done study looked at the effect of testosterone and DHT on body fat and insulin sensitivity. The researchers previously did a similar study that determined that low estradiol was linked to increased fat mass. By blocking testosterone, DHT and estradiol in different arms...
