CFA Program and Testosterone levels

Try adding some grass fed beef or free range eggs to your diet.
2 gallons Kefir made from raw milk per week plus happy chicken eggs are main source of protein/fats. I eat clean, extreme some may say. Total T was at 287 ng and Free available T at 11.7 ng. My understanding this is 2 std. dev. below mean or equivalent to an 80 yr old man. For a 39 yr old, I hope the total T springs back taking the Free back up with it.
I plan not to stress as much at Level II, assuming I cleared this round. Level I was very personal for me, failure absolutely not an option.

^ also remember that your levels will fluctuate. Sleep and removal of stress are the most important factors. Also, heavy weight exercise that focus on large muscle groups, like squats, cleans deadlifts, will increase T.
I dropped back to lifting only 1X per week from March thru May. Something had to give and unfortunately lifting was it. I did keep cycling to work though. I can’t wait to get going again. Going to go do some squats and deads now…
 
I really think stress and lack of sleep are the killers. Also, worth checkin to see if you have Varicoceles, Veines in the scrotum that keep the area too warm for the testicles to function properly.

Yeah, if you take Testosterone, your testicles will stop working and shrink up. If you are < 40 years old, chances are it is a life style issue that is killing your T.
That’s why you use Clomid and Nolva to bring those little fuckers up…
 
The more sex you have, the more your T level will increase. You have to get back in the habit.

Curious to know what meds cured Varicoceles?
 
Stillmanaf, when do you get your blod test re-done? ALso, be sure to do it in the morning.

Early August, this would be 8 plus week interval. I am trying to put as much effort to get the T back up as I put into Level I exam prep. It’s a nice challenge during the wait period for exam results. I will do it bright and early, including additional hormones for further analysis. Thanks! Off to sleep…
