At what age does the male body produce the maximum amount of testosterone? I ask this because from what i see, people who are older then me (I am 15) tend to gain muscle much faster then people at my age... So at what age does the body produce most testosterone?

Re: At what age...?
I've heard from several sources that it's somewhere around ages 16 - 20 where the body produces the maximum, and reaches the so-called "sexual peak".Originally posted by Softmuscled

I'm not CERTAIN about that, so I don't want anyone flipping out at me for giving bad advice because I'm just trying to help.- REMOVE THE TIME LIMIT ON POST EDITING -

i think around 16, or the time of puberty really kicking in, 16 is what i got when i googled for the answer just now, that would seem right to me, muscles just explode with heavy weights and a good diet

around 19 most people hit a "peak"
I believe after you reach a so called "peak" the levels stay at that peak for another few years before they start gettin any lower.

you can make gains at any age but it may take you 1 year to make the same gains as somone 20 could make in 6 months.
