My Testosterone Level Blood Test Results Are In

[MikeLowrrrey]

What are you guys looking for in the "Free Testosterone" levels?

I had mine tested last year just out of curiosity @32 years old I had:

575 ng/dl

105.2 pg/ml

Am I a soy tranny?

Yours is better than my. Mine is 412, but I'm like 80lbs overweight. I wonder could I touch 600 natty at 33?

[Godfrd824]

Knew this test would be done wrong, lemme guess your doctor took the short bus to school?

Your total test is not a good indicator, it can be lowered by SHBG for example

You need to get your Free testosterone looked at, then and only then will you know if you're a soy boy ph@ggot or Alpha

This. I was just talking to my endo about this. I forgot the name of the test she ordered, but it's something totally different.

[omnip0tent]

total looks good.
Your free levels are abnormally high.

25.1 pg/ml is the top-end of the normal range.

Maybe they used a dif metric? Or am I dying?

[Austanian]

looks like different test. Mine is (Direct)



Not sure on the merits of the different tests.

I cut down my dosage after this test.

from my friend who is an RN -

"The dietary cholesterol we ingest has little to do with you numbers. It's a genetic or a liver thing. Eat more fish with omegas as well as veggies that lower LDL or raise HDL. Red meat is fine. Need that HDL over 50 preferably 70-75. Once that is happening your LDL will fall naturally and even if near 150 it won't matter."

my 2018 numbers were stellar tho. what changed? the diet! steak every night!

[GordonXXX]

[gmenfan40]

the party's over with eating 16 oz. steaks every night for 2 years. cholesterol came back high! now it's back to fish and boneless/skinless chicken breast and maybe steak once in a blue moon!

Total Cholesterol - 249
Trig - 94
LDL - 182
Ratio - 5.4
Non HDL - 203

i also found out i'm O+ blood type.

There's no way you eat as clean as you state on here with your cholesterol and triglycerides so bad. High triglycerides are usually also a factor from eating too much sugar. (Super Ded fkn Srs)

i haven't had refined sugar in 33+ years. i don't even eat my own birthday cake.

my regular diet includes NY Strip Steaks, Sweet Potatoes, Steamed Broccoli, Coffee, Water, and Quest Bars.

no more steaks every night. i'm switching to boneless skinless chicken breasts and fish.

this is scary -

If you like red meat, just eat venison or ostrich instead of beef.

How is this possible if you just eat potatoes and steak and OMAD? I thought OMAD is the healthiest approach out there to reduce weight and cholesterol

Alcohol.

NY Strips, Ribeyes, T-Bones every night. time for a change. in 2018 i was on a fish, chicken, and vegetables diet.

[GordonXXX]

steak every night? i pretty much dun goofed.

i was basically doing the carnivore diet but adding vegetables.

[dabbmw2002]

If you feel good, what is the issue?

[GordonXXX]

If you feel good, what is the issue?

1. high cholesterol could lead to a heart attack?
2. 509 is probably a good number for me at 54. you don't want it too low or too high. higher is not always better. delicate balance.

[HMFIC_BROWSIN]

What about cholesterol/triglicerides?

[MrSchons]

Meanwhile Flex is a hunk of beef with 1000+ test of the gods, lol at airfryercels

[HMFIC_BROWSIN]

oh chit just saw you posted your cholesterol... I knew it was going to be absolute trash based on your "grocery haul" threads.

Get it together, bone-head.

[AcetylCoA]

Mine came back at ~150

damn. how do you feel?

[LargePeter]

509. I was disappointed. I expected 800+ because that's what I feel like. I guess it could've been worse. Age 54.

I got tested, 527 I think from memory

3 months of 200mg/wk of test C, now up over 800 - bigger and leaner with no real change to diet or training pattern

Next month setting up for a blast, 400mg/wk for 16 weeks with a dianabol spike for 5 weeks then an anavar taper for the last 5 weeks, gonna get fuking massive

You need to make a crock pot full of chicken breast chili every week. You can keep bowls of it for the entire week in your fridge or freezer. I do fridge because I finish it before the week is over EVERY TIME. I eat one big ass bowl every day.

It has 0 grams of saturated fat, tons of fiber, tons of protein, tastes good.

You can do a side of avocado which goes extremely well with the chili, and has a TON of fiber/healthy fat.

EASY AF to reheat, just grab a spoon and eat it.

When I do it with avocado on the side, I get 28g of fiber in that one meal LOL. At first you might chit like 3x/day and fart like a maniac but it settles down and/or you get used to it.

EDIT: recipe.

15oz cans:
3 cans beans, 1 can tomato sauce, 1 can diced tomatos

chicken breast:
2 lbs

veggies:
bell pepper, whole onion, jalapeno (and other hot peppers if you want)

seasoning:
salt/pepper/chili powder/others if you want

1. put beans in strainer and rinse
2. put beans in crockpot
3. chop onion/pepper/jalapenos
4. put in crock pot
5. add whole can and the juice of tomatos
6. add whole can of tomato sauce
7. pre-cook chicken breast in air fryer
8. chop up cooked chicken and add to crockpot
9. add 15g salt, and as much chili powder as you want

mix it all together, put crockpot on high for 5 hours.

done.

Why 15grams of salt?

Also what kind of beans do you use? Sounds like a good idea. I'd probably kill that in 2-3 days TBH, that's only 2lbs of chicken. (Super Ded fkn Srs)

I get 4 or 5 bowls out of it usually. You can adjust the chicken UP, or buy a massive crock pot and just load that bastard up

I do the salt for flavor, you don't actually need to use ANY... Or you could use less...

I think my measurement is wrong TBH.... now that I'm looking at it, there's no way I am using that much salt....

mind = blown.

I'm using about a TSP, which comes out WAY lower than anything I believed I was measuring.

I use pinto beans, black beans, or kidney beans.
