Story from My Fit Tribe

Testosterone Deficiency

tribe doc's picture

I’m sure most of you tribal members are at or near the peak of your testosterone levels (YEEEHAWW!!) but some of you have probably begun to exchange hormone levels for wisdom. By that I mean, as we age (and hopefully get smarter!) our hormone levels quite naturally decline and this can have serious consequences in the gym and to our health if untreated. A significant deficiency of testosterone can have just as serious health consequences as a deficiency of insulin.

Testosterone Deficiency

Usually this natural decline begins to be noticeable in the late 40’s early 50’s but I am often surprised at how low some younger guys testosterone levels are. The right weight training and diet can help boost hormone levels but will not completely prevent this decline.
