what’s going on guys welcome to the test
your levels youtube channel i’m tester
levels thank you guys for being here
thank you for the support you guys are
awesome today i wanted to do a video on
things to look for and things to look
out for when choosing a trt clinic your
experience with trt can vary greatly
depending on where you go so it’s a very
important decision to make so let’s get
started the first question we need to
ask is do we want to go to a local
clinic or do we want to utilize a
telemedicine service this is up to
personal preference what i have noticed
is that telemedicine clinics are overall
usually cheaper
for some reason these local clinics they
think like okay well we’re the only game
in town so we can charge the 300 a month
and these guys don’t know any better
they typically serve an over older crowd
from what i’ve seen
i’m not a big fan of local but you may
be you may want to talk to someone face
to face i mean i personally don’t really
see the difference from face to face or
like a video call or a phone call
think you can accomplish the same thing
but one thing i do want you to look out
for with local clinics a lot of them
will want you to come into their office
to get shots once a week
i don’t feel like this is ideal unless
you are terribly afraid of needles and
no one in your household can can help
you with this um i think it’s it’s not
convenient you’re going to spend lots of
money on gas you’re going to waste your
time and time is one of your most
precious things some people do like
local clinics so if that’s you go for it
i personally prefer telemedicine for
some of you younger guys out there the
first question you need to ask a trt
clinic before you even waste any time is
you know are you able to treat me for my
age um this would typically apply to
like the 18 to 25 crowd different trt
clinics have different you know
different rules um some will treat 18
and up depending on the symptoms and lab
work some people have like a 20 you know
age 25 cut off so if you’re searching
around and you’re in that in that age
bracket just ask them that straight up
if they say no then you know move on
find another one don’t waste any more
time the next one and this one’s
extremely important this is blood work
so a lot of these places that charge you
know a monthly fee once a company is
charging a monthly fee a lot of people
don’t realize this but the next order at
hand for them is okay how can we lower
the cost of each patient each month so
that we make more money
one of the the most common ways that
that trt clinics do this and they
actually advertise it as convenient is
at home lab tests
i’ve seen some companies do paper tests
i’ve seen other companies do like the
finger prick test where you know you get
a little drop of blood and you squeeze
it a little bit and put it into a little
vial and send it off
i don’t like these tests um
they are they can be
they can they can hit the same number as
a lab draw but sometimes they just get
lucky i had one that it was like it
showed 500 and i had a lab test show me
a thousand um so they can vary greatly
um it also depends how long does it take
to get from you to the testing center
did you do everything right did you
provide enough sample
there’s just a lot of variables i like
trt clinics that do actual lab orders
they send you a lab order one way or
another you go get labs drawn and you
get real blood test results that’s the
most accurate way if it wasn’t and there
was you know paper test and finger prick
tests were just perfectly good trust me
lab corp would be doing it there would
be no you know offices that you actually
go and get lab work done if they figured
out how to do extremely accurate like
liquid chromatography mass spectrometry
at home trust me it would exist but it
doesn’t
this is a way that some of the trt
clinics advertise convenience like oh we
mail you the blood test you know and
they say oh it’s super convenient it’s
really a way to lower cost it may be a
little bit more convenient but i
wouldn’t trade accuracy of blood tests
for a treatment like this for
convenience
it’s really a way for them to save money
so
if you’re with one of those clinics i’m
not saying anything bad about them but i
just imagine going there with like let’s
say you do really have 300 you know
total test and you take that test and
it’s off and it says 600 which is very
possible and they say sorry we can’t
treat you and you just never get treated
i mean just because of inaccurate tests
i’ve seen some of these clinics i mean
they’re literally just testing total
tests and estrogen and then like maybe
like a complete metabolic panel or
comprehensive metabolic panel like
they’re doing the bare minimum and that
kind of ties into my once you’re paying
like a monthly fee their next thing is
to figure out okay well how can we get
the cost of the blood work uh you know
cheaper well we can do it less
frequently we can do less tests
you know cholesterol is super important
that’s going to be in a lipid profile
psa
super super important on trt
that’s you know a good indicator of your
prostate health
if you don’t check that for too long
something happens that is not ideal and
then also a complete blood count you’re
going to want to see your hematocrit
your red blood cell count so i’ve seen
some of these some of these
clinics cheap out on labs and do the
absolute absolute bare minimum and i
just think that’s a ticking time bomb
waiting to happen and if that does
happen they’re going to try to backpedal
offload we this isn’t us we didn’t have
to do this we told them to talk to his
primary care
it’s a mess so that’s another reason i
like a little bit more higher end
clinics that really do solid lab testing
um such as the company that i am
associated with uh they do a lot of labs
uh quality labs so just something to
think about i know you may think that
you are getting a great deal i’m
getting it for 125 a month is fantastic
you know they do lab work at once a year
and they do this at home paper test
super convenient
guys this is your health don’t cheap out
here cut down on a little bit of the
starbucks every day and pay a couple
extra bucks and go to a more reputable
clinic those at home tests they have
their place but i don’t believe they are
qualified to diagnose and then monitor
trt treatment it’s too important your
health is way too important to cheap out
and not spend the extra 15 minutes it
takes to go to lab corp so the initial
consultation you know this is where
you’re going to be talking to a provider
of some kind physician’s assistant nurse
practitioner or an actual physician
a lot of people freak out like oh i have
to talk to a doctor listen i would much
prefer to talk to someone a physician’s
assistant a nurse practitioner who does
this all day and researches and and
learns and continues to learn over a
doctor who did an extra two years in
school and doesn’t follow the stuff they
just write scripts if you’re going to a
clinic and they have different types of
levels of providers don’t freak out and
think i have to see a doctor if you have
like super complicated things like i’ve
got lyme’s disease i have a history of
prostate cancer in my family i’ve been
on trt i could never get dialed in then
yeah maybe go see a physician but if you
have a normal case and you’re going to a
reputable clinic there’s no reason why a
physician’s assistant or a nurse
practitioner cannot accurately diagnose
and help treat you the initial
consultation so the amount of time that
you are actually talking to a provider
you know when you’re getting started in
this arena you know the amount of time
you have to ask questions how do i
inject how often do i do this how do i
measure the medicine what are some of
the side effects what do i need to look
out for you know and you know in case
something happens
i’ve seen some clinics more of the
bargain clinics do 15-minute initial
consultations so they can do for an hour
i’ve seen 30 minutes i’ve seen an hour i
personally think that when you are
starting a treatment like this
unless you are super super well versed i
think that you i think typically the
longer the better you can cover more
ground you’ll feel more comfortable you
know you can even write down a list of
questions that you may have any concerns
that you may have
so i personally would try to find a
clinic that spends a little bit more
time with their patients
i think it’s extremely important in this
arena
and then quality of providers you know
if you’re going to a bargain place you
know you may get a bargain provider
someone who’s kind of doing this on the
side and what a lot of people don’t
realize is a lot of these clinics
especially the telemedicine ones
a lot of them outsource their doctors so
there are certain ones
the company that i work with defy
medical their providers are on staff i
like that i like that i can talk to the
same person every single time a lot of
these places they outsource their
doctors so okay we need to find a doctor
for michigan okay we don’t have a
license in michigan we need to get a
doctor all right so let’s find one we’ll
pay him x amount per consultation in
some of these places you may talk to
this guy
and then your next consultation you talk
to someone else um that’s just what
happens i talked to a guy who said it
sounded like the doctor that he was
talking to was driving like he heard
like wind noise like the guy was driving
he heard car sounds like this guy was
literally doing like a trt consultation
and just like cruising around the city
go and get groceries and stuff like that
those are some of the funny things that
i’ve heard but i personally if i’m doing
like managed care with someone with a
treatment that’s complicated like this
and does have some associated risks as
well as lots of benefits i would want to
talk to someone the same person they
know my story we’ve already had the
initial discussion they kind of know
what i’m about it’s you know it’s just
an easier process more consistent how
often does this clinic do follow-up
consultations are they doing it you know
once after the first month which really
doesn’t make a lot of sense are they
doing it after you know three months
which i feel is a pretty solid thing how
often are they doing it after that you
know and i mean i think there there
comes a point where you know you’re kind
of you’re in you’re dialed in you’re on
the routine it’s more of a maintenance
thing and i don’t think that you need to
be seeing a provider every three months
i think that you know six months works
i don’t think too much longer than six
months worth you should be getting blood
work every six months i mean especially
for something like psa
medicine medicine medicine so here’s
some couple things to think of um you
know some some clinics are cookie cutter
they give you sipinate uh that may give
you gonadore ellen or scipionate and
clomid and it’s essentially what it
means cookie cutter you’re getting 200
milligrams and you’re getting however
much clomid and they’ll mail that enough
of that to you for 10 weeks that’s uh
yeah can work for some but what if you
want to try enantha which has a slightly
shorter half-life what if you want to
end up doing kind of like every day or
every other day with propionate well if
your clinic doesn’t have access to that
you’re going to have to be truly
transferring to another clinic and while
you may have satisfied that initial
clinics you know initial you know
process when you go to this new one you
may have to start as essentially a new
patient and go through that same process
so you may be doing maybe did labs three
months ago and now you’re at the new
place and now they have to require you
to do new labs or more labs because your
other clinic didn’t do it and the labs
are old so that’s why i’m doing this
video so you can kind of ask all the
questions figure out you know which
places make the most sense for you so
you don’t have to start at one and
bounce to the other it’s not ideal for
your protocol and it’s not ideal for
your wallet another thing to ask do you
have in clomiphene or do you only have
clomid and you’re thinking yourself and
you’re like well i’m not going to do
that i’m going to be on hcg i’m not
going to ever need to do that well maybe
you have to uh stop trt for a fertility
protocol if all they have is clomid i
personally am not a big fan of clomid i
like in clomiphene i think and
clomiphene is basically like clomid 2.0
it just it seems to have less of a side
effect profile and seems to work just as
good if not better so that’s something
also if hcg were to ever dry up i know
in climate is not ideal it’s not a
direct replacement for hcg but it’s at
least good to know that you can get it
good old hcg i would not go to a clinic
that does not offer hcg that’s just my
personal opinion i love hcg i really
would not want to do trt without it i
could yup but if a place is going to
tell you that either gonadorellan or in
clomiphene is a direct replacement and
or is better than hcg that’s a huge
warning sign that’s basically saying we
don’t have access to hcg or we don’t
have access to a pharmacy that can offer
hcg they can’t get the you know the
pharmaceutical brand name whatever it is
they don’t have it they’re probably a
little bit of a lower tier clinic
it’s either that or they don’t want the
cost they’ve already got you paying a
monthly fee switch it out to a
clomiphene which is in general cheaper
than hcg
so
yeah anyway but hcg that’s a that’s a
must for me
ancillary medications like nandralone
and oxanderlone now while you’re just
starting trt right now and you may not
be thinking about that you may not even
know what those are at this point but
let’s say a year down the road you’re
like man i’ve been on trt i’m feeling
good but i’m i’m putting on more muscle
and i’m lifting heavier and now my
shoulders hurting hey doc can i get some
mandrel on you know my shoulder’s
nagging it’s hurting me and they’re like
oh we don’t offer that well now you’re
right back in that situation where
you’re going to have to transfer to
another clinic and you may have to
satisfy their initial requirements which
could cost you some more money which you
wouldn’t be dealing with if you chose a
clinic that offered some of these
ancillary medications
on top of that like injectable vitamins
nutrients
i think that’s pretty important same
idea you know if you if you start with a
clinic and you’re like oh hey and a lot
of guys do this they’ll start on trt and
they’re like okay well i want to get
into the optimization you know i’m
cleaning up my diet i’m getting
healthier i’m losing weight maybe i want
some b12 maybe i want to throw in some
carnitine or some lipo c whatever it may
be
you know if your clinic doesn’t offer
this now you’re looking for a third
provider or second provider that can get
it or you’re trying to find it wherever
else but if you go to a place that
already has all that stuff then it’s
real simple it’s a one-stop shop so
that’s why i kind of like certain places
that do this that work with you know at
least one or multiple compounding
pharmacies so you can get a wide variety
of stuff
ed meds a lot of them have that this one
is not really a huge thing i mean you
can get ed meds other places like cyalis
and viagra and the generic versions
but things like i’m not sure if you’ve
ever heard of trimix it’s an injectable
it’s more for when both of those aren’t
working
so not sure if if ed is on any issue for
you then i really wouldn’t worry about
it i wouldn’t barrage all these clicks
with questions about ed meds
but the other thing i wanted to mention
was packages some of these places would
be like oh you know we’ve got this plus
our weight loss package and we’re going
to mail you b12 and lipoc and
l-carnitine and all this and it’s only
an extra 95 a month and uh you know it
sounds good you may not need all that
stuff and if you’re typically paying on
a monthly cycle then they’re going to
send that to you every 10 weeks or
whatever the schedule it is it’s one of
those things where you don’t remember to
tell them to stop sending it or to
discontinue from that package and then
you look at the package you’re like oh
man i’d already got two bottles of the
b12 that i haven’t used now i just got a
third one and they just charged my card

  1. oh man so i don’t really like the
    packages i prefer to do everything all a
    cart um you know that’s subscription
    service type stuff it’s like those boxes
    with knives and you know shot glasses
    and like that eventually you forget
    to cancel it and you get another box and
    you’re like damn it i don’t need another
    hatchet i already have five so another
    thing to think about with trt clinics so
    some of them do just the monthly fee and
    it stays like that all the time um there
    are some popular ones that do that um
    there are other ones where you know you
    have kind of an initial process and you
    have you know a follow-up consultation
    to try to get you know dialed in if
    you’re not already and then it’s kind of
    more of a maintenance phase with these
    type of trt clinics the upfront cost may
    be a little bit more but when you look
    at you know the second year
    it can be a big difference in cost
    because you’re probably not doing you
    know the full lab panel you’re not doing
    you know that that second follow-up to
    get kind of dialed in you’re probably at
    like the you know every six months
    so the first year cost could be one
    price and then the second year cost
    could be considerably lower so that’s
    something to keep in mind when you’re
    comparing trt clinics you know is you
    know 195 a month for everything you know
    versus you know
    labs and maybe a consultation fee and
    then medicine but if you average that
    out for the year it may be drastically
    different so let’s just say two hundred
    dollars a month you know that’s twenty
    four hundred dollars a year whereas you
    know another clinic that has labs and a
    consultation it may be more expensive up
    front but you know as you go through as
    a patient the price drops so overall in
    the long run you’ll save more money so
    you’ve got to do the math guys so do the
    math figure out what makes sense for you
    and then pick you know the clinic that
    you know offers that another big one
    that guys don’t really understand and
    it’s kind of like a car sales type of
    thing um some places will charge like a
    membership fee so they’re like oh well
    we do trt for 109 a month and you’re
    like okay that’s a pretty good price you
    guys have all okay cool cool and then oh
    well you’ve got to sign a contract and
    that’s another thing contracts some
    places have contracts but you go to sign
    up and you’re like what’s the what’s the
    membership fee oh well that’s a 25 fee
    so that you’re part of our member um and
    they’re like what’s the what’s the
    medical access fee like i have to pay to
    talk to someone if i have an issue like
    oh yeah you know it’s built into our
    program um and now you’re looking and
    you’re like huh i’m at the 200 mark now
    like you advertise 109 and now i’m at
    the you know i i have to pay extra to
    talk to people
    um so it’s the same ideas like cars like
    okay we’ll give you the undercoating for
    free but we’re gonna have to charge you
    the dealer fee you know it’s they
    squeeze this end and you know squeeze
    this and this end goes up same idea um
    so watch out for that you know if you’re
    talking to someone on the phone or
    emailing you know they’re not going to
    go out of their way to be like oh hey
    just to double check did you read the
    fine print where it says it’s an extra
    90 bucks for our membership fee and for
    our you know medical access fee you know
    it’s not it’s not going to work like
    that so that’s something to look out for
    um i really don’t like that model i
    it’s essentially so they can advertise
    at a lower price and then when you get
    the real cost you’re like huh that’s not
    that great so
    something to look out for i’m going to
    end the video here i hope this was
    helpful i mean i know picking a trt
    clinic is difficult
    it’s a medicine it’s b
    a lot of different pricing structures a
    lot of different nuances of whether they
    have this medicine whether they can
    prescribe this what type of lab work do
    they do what type of sip uh you know
    sustain what type of testosterone do
    they offer do they have blends so it’s a
    lot of different stuff and you really
    have to figure out what makes the most
    sense for you
    if you do have interest in checking out
    defy medical i like them i’ve worked
    with them they check all the boxes for
    what i personally would do if i wasn’t
    with a concierge doctor
    but they’ve been around for a while so i
    have a link for them not trying to show
    them but i have worked with them they’ve
    been solid lots of good reviews but but
    if you are looking around and you are
    you know
    comparison shopping and figuring out
    which one you know just just remember
    some of these ask the questions look at
    the fine print do the actual math on the
    cost
    and just do your due diligence because i
    just don’t want you to start with a
    budget clinic and then you want to
    switch and you have to redo it and you
    never got dialed in in the first three
    months and now it becomes a whole thing
    so go with someone solid don’t cheap out
    on medical care especially testosterone
    treatment you know and this is it’s a
    hormone you know things can happen so
    you know be safe
    get good care and work with a solid
    clinic don’t go budget cut out on the
    starbucks

what’s going on guys texture levels here
thanks for being here
today we’re going to talk about an
interesting topic uh some things i sat
back and thought about
some of the personality changes that
i’ve noticed uh for being on trt for
three years
and i thought you guys would find that
interesting uh but before we start
uh if you’re new click on the subscribe
button if you end up liking the video
smash the like button and let me know in
the comments if you’ve noticed any
personality changes since
starting trt i think it’s important to
mention before we move on in the video
that these did not happen
the first week the second week first
month second month they happened
gradually over time
you know i don’t know exactly how long i
had low testosterone
but i’m assuming it’s a couple years and
i think you know having low testosterone
for that many years
kind of changed your personality in this
way and it’s not just going to bounce
right back up you know just like
everything else in the body it takes a
little while to adjust
and it takes some time before you see
changes so these weren’t things that
happened overnight
you know these are things that i slowly
gradually noticed you know
first year second year you know kind of
like that so
you know don’t expect and all of these
or any of these to happen immediately i
just want to make that pretty clear
but let’s jump in oh and at the end of
the video i’m going to let you know some
of my
wife’s thoughts on how my personality
has changed since starting trt
the first thing i noticed and it’s a
real small subtle one
was in the gym you know normally in the
gym
when i was walking around i was always
kind of cognizant of
you know where people were walking you
know because people cut in for machines
uh you know they cut into the different
rows of machines and i was
you know not like obsessed with it to
where i focused on where every single
person was and how they were moving so
we wouldn’t bump into each other
but i was always cognizant of it and the
first thing that i noticed was
you know when i’m in the gym i’m usually
thinking about like business stuff or
video ideas
or just different stuff you know i just
think while i’m in the gym
and i noticed that i wasn’t focusing or
looking at other people
you know wondering you know where they
were moving i was just walking in
my direction and you know if someone was
happen to
you know get in my way you know we would
deal with it at that point
but i was more laser focused on the
things that i was thinking about
the machine i was going to you know what
my next sets were going to be
i wasn’t even cognizant of really the
people around
me yes i saw them but i wasn’t focused
on them really in any way
now i’ll preface that by saying i wasn’t
walking around like a dick you know
looking to shoulder check people you
know i mean if
i’m walking in the center of an island
there’s you know three girls or three
guys
walking on this side you know i’ll move
over to the right side just like a
normal human
and i’m not saying i’m trying to
shoulder check or you know be a jerk or
try to be cocky or
an but i just you know i just
don’t focus on it
and if we happen to cross paths we’ll
deal with it at the time
but i was just more focused on myself
than other people i guess that’s the
takeaway from this
the next one i noticed is interesting
because i never noticed that i did it
before
until i didn’t do it and it was
explaining myself
and you know i never thought that it was
weird to explain yourself
let me explain myself if someone you
know is usually in a business setting
you know someone says hey can you meet
me at 5 pm here
and in back in the day i would say i
can’t meet you here because i have to do
this this this and this
and it’s it’s for some reason it’s a
beta thing where you
you have to provide an explanation to
that person you can’t just say
no i can’t meet you what’s a better time
now in some situations you know friends
and family you know you do
you know should give them an explanation
as to why you can’t do it i mean it’s
you know there’s different situations
where it’s warranted
but for something like business or you
know in other situations
you don’t owe anyone an explanation
they’re asking you can you make it
i can make it or i can’t make it right
beings
so that’s just something that i noticed
that i never noticed that i did before
just always i can’t make it because i
have to do this and
i hope you understand and i hope that’s
okay i hope i have approval not to meet
you
no hey five o’clock can’t make it
what’s a better time for you moving
around stupid camera and lights is
really pissing me off beans
real youtubers are making me work hard
so
on that topic uh i have
found and my wife has found that i have
less patience for in life
this is generally a pro but it can be a
con
not having a not having patience for
bs or things that are not beneficial to
your life uh
in general is a pro it keeps you from
being walked on in life
it keeps people from treating you poorly
and taking advantage of you
but it can be also be a con and i’ll get
to that
later on in the video when i tell you
about my wife’s thoughts
on my personality changes on trt
in business this can be a huge pro you
know a lot of high level people possess
this trait
they’re not going to sit there and be on
a conference call for 10 minutes with a
vendor
that they know it’s it’s not going to
work out or they can’t deliver what they
need
so they will tell them very quickly
listen this is not going to work
i’ve got to go so you know they’re not
going to sit there and be nice
and listen to a 10-minute presentation
if they know this isn’t going to work
they have other stuff to do like find a
vendor that can make
what they need done get done this is not
a business example but
i’d say about a month or two ago nice
girl knocked down my door
not really nice because she was
soliciting when she shouldn’t have been
but hey i respect the hustle
now she was trying to get me to switch
internet providers
to a company which i’m familiar with
they have slower speeds and it’s
slightly slightly cheaper
but i use a lot of internet so i let her
get about 30 seconds in and when she
told me that the up speeds
are slower but they’re through fiber so
they’re better which i know is bs
i said sweetheart i didn’t say
sweetheart but i said you know i
appreciate you letting me know about
this but i’m very happy with my current
provider and i have no intention of
switching
now back in the day i probably would
have listened to a lot more of her sales
pitch
and the reasoning being is you know i
don’t want to be mean to this girl
you know she’s trying really hard i know
i understand her position i’ve been in
sales
so i’ll let her finish and you know i
don’t want to tell her
just very bluntly and directly thank you
for your presentation
but i’m not interested in reality
by trying not to make her feel bad and
saying you know giving her an abrupt
no i was actually doing her a disservice
she only has certain amount of hours in
the day to sell internet
you know i think the overall thing is
that i’m
less worried about what other people
think and less worried about their
feelings
and it turns out in a lot of situations
you’re actually doing someone a
service you’re giving them a solid by
giving them a straight up answer
very quickly you know would you want to
go to 10 people’s doors
and you know do your whole 10-minute
spiel and listen to them and they all
say no
would you rather be told straight up
within the first 30 seconds
i’m not interested you just cut your
time down by like two hours and you get
to that 10th house and they’re like
yes i’d like your internet service how
do we sign up
i’ll quickly touch on why this is a con
well
the nice little girl that knocked on my
door trying to sell me internet
me telling her straight up bluntly no
doesn’t affect my household it doesn’t
affect
my bedroom there’s people that live in
your house and
you have to it’s a delicate balance like
i said earlier
or later i don’t know i’m kind of
jumping around and doing this video in
different places and i guess if i was a
good youtuber i would
have it like storyboarded out anyway
there’s a fine line between being blunt
being alpha letting people know what’s
on your mind
there’s a very delicate balance when
it’s in your household and with your
family members
i think you can see how that could be
and i’ll touch on that a little bit more
at the end of the video
with my wife’s thoughts this one might
seem a little strange to you
but things like large projects or
daunting projects
my thought process has changed on them
you know for a lot of my earlier career
i worked in teams and we had a large
project assigned to us
it wasn’t really my job you know i was
younger i was more of the worker bee i
wasn’t the manager
so it wasn’t my job to worry about all
of the small details it was more of my
job
to you know do work just be a worker
you know and as i progress in my career
and i was more of a manager
and you know an entrepreneurial doing
different stuff just for myself
i noticed that you know let’s say i want
to put up a website
when i would first think of this you
know setting up a website
the first thing that popped into my head
was okay i have to buy a domain then i
have to have it hosted
i’m gonna have to have this program
after this email and i’m gonna have to
code this html this and that and it
became daunting
to where i started thinking of all the
things that could
go wrong or would be really hard or take
lots of time
instead of thinking about the end result
and you know
getting the project done it just it kind
of i had
doubt in my mind not doubt per se
because i know i can get it done
but i just thought about how hard it
would be and how difficult it would be
and how hard i would have to work and it
kind of got into my head
since being on trt when i you know
either think of a large
project that i need to do or i’m working
on a large project that’s assigned to me
i don’t think about all the small things
and how long it’s going to take how hard
they are
i i can visualize the final result
and you know it’s more about you know
okay i’m going to get this done
not thinking of all the individual
things that i need to do to get it done
they’re going to be difficult they’re
going to be a pain in the ass
you know i know there’s going to be
setbacks and things that are annoying
but it’s it’s a subtle thing it’s hard
to describe but you know i just have
i don’t have anxiety on the project i
don’t you know i’m not stressing about
it i’m not thinking about all the
details you know i’m thinking about the
final result i’m thinking about
you know the top of the mountain when
you get it done and then i start looking
at what i need to do to get it done
but i don’t have as much anxiety about
it i guess that’s the best way i could
possibly say it
beans obviously got tired of my she
doesn’t have a lot of patience for bs
either
so she moved on but i’m going to let you
know what my wife’s thoughts are
on how my personality has changed
she thinks i’m a gem all the time i’m
just kidding
so my wife’s thoughts on this were that
i’ve become more aggressive
i know don’t let your don’t let your
wife or your partner watch this video
and she doesn’t mean aggressive like
physically or anything like that
what she means kind of harks back to one
of my first ones
that i have less patience for bs
things that normally would annoy me
and i would just kind of let them roll
off my back
like you know you get that kind of
feeling in your chest where you’re
annoyed
and you kind of want to say something
but you’re like
happy wife happy life well sometimes
i don’t say happy wife happy life and i
call her out on
what she’s saying or doing and this can
be
good and bad there is a fine line
in a relationship if you call your wife
or partner
on everything that annoys you you’re
going to have a rough time
telling someone in business to piss off
because you don’t like their proposal or
you think they’re wrong is one thing
that is not going to affect you in your
household
or your bedroom you know that alpha male
mentality of
if anything annoys me i’m calling you
out on it i’m gonna take action
i’m gonna let you know what i think
there’s a fine line between
holding your tongue being locked on
and not letting certain things
just roll off your back that really
don’t bother you that much
so it’s a fine line you have to find the
balance
but just realize that there’s a
possibility that
things were back in the day you’re like
yeah
i’m annoyed but yeah
you you might you might mention it you
might come back so
if you have that tight feeling in your
chest and you’re annoyed you’re kind of
pissed off and you want to say something
you kind of gotta take a quick step back
and say all right
this is really annoying me is this
really worth turning this into a thing
it’s a very fine line and you’ll have to
work that out on your own
the last thing i can really think of off
the top of my head
is i talk less in certain situations
not with like family members friends i
haven’t become like an introvert because
i’m on trt
but in most i guess most specifically
like business negotiations or
negotiations for you know items like on
craigslist or facebook marketplace
um if you’ll notice if you’ve ever seen
people do negotiations
usually the person that’s in charge
talks the least
and though a lot of the time you silence
to
make the other person feel awkward and
start running their mouth
and i’ve noticed that in a lot of
situations where if they’re
selling something or buying something
you know let’s say someone you know
lowballs me 50 bucks
you know kind of just like look at them
be like
and you just kind of look at them and
you know silence is awkward for
the majority of the population and you
know in a negotiation when you’re
silent the other person will start
talking so this person might say well
okay can i do it for you know 25 more or
something like that
so it’s not it’s not a huge thing but if
you’ve done sales and negotiating you
can understand the power of silence
i don’t feel the need to you know to to
have to sell this i don’t have to sell
this to you there’s plenty of other
people that would buy this or you know i
don’t necessarily need your service so
i’m going to be silent here i’m going to
be quiet and i’m going to let you
make me a better offer i’m going to let
you spill the beans i’m going to let you
ramble on and ramble on and
maybe you’ll say something that gives me
an advantage in the negotiation

Is the FDA Trying to Ban an Antioxidant? N-Acetyl Cysteine FDA Ban! NAC Removed by Amazon

N-Acetyl Cysteine or NAC is a precursor to Glutathione which is one of the most powerful antioxidants in the human body. N-Acetyl Cysteine has been available since 1963 and is currently used to protect the liver in certain overdose cases. N-Acetyl Cysteine has been shown to help protect respiratory function, protect the liver and a host of other protective functions in the body. The FDA recently sent letter to some supplement brands putting N-Acetyl Cysteine NAC in question. Amazon immediate pulled all N-Acetyl Cysteine NAC Listings! Is the FDA trying to ban NAC?

https://youtube.com/watch?v=Z3PxB7ZzqQw

so what do you guys want to do today you
guys want to put out like a letter
telling people that like
uh proper nutrition and a healthy diet
can help them be healthier overall
no no okay what about uh
let’s put out a newsletter about how
exercise and how losing weight
can help you be healthier overall and
feel better and protect you from
things that are floating around in the
world today no
no what about like some kind of letter
saying how like
vitamins and minerals like zinc and a
multivitamin
can help protect you and make you feel
better and be a healthier human overall
no what about
if we take a supplement that’s been
around since 1963
and is used it’s one of the most
powerful antioxidants in the world
and it’s used to help prevent liver
liver disease and liver damage
what if we get that band off amazon
hell yeah hell yeah let’s do it baby
[Music]
[Applause]
what’s going on guys tester levels here
how’s it going
gosh i love the fda i love my tax
dollars
going to pointless that helps
absolutely no one
i’ve been actually meaning to make a
video on nac for a while
i’ve just been busy with other stuff if
you’re not familiar nac is n-acetyl
cysteine
and what it is is basically in the
simplest forms it’s a precursor
for one of the most powerful
antioxidants in the world
glutathione antioxidants do all kinds of
great stuff in our body
you know you can find antioxidants in
blueberries like berry
all this that’s healthy for you
basically has antioxidants for the most
part
so nac it was first used
as a respiratory medicine it’s still
it’s good for your respiratory system
some people say that it’s really good
for your respiratory system and
that’s the reason that the fda is kind
of getting all weird with it
anyway take off the aluminum foil hat
sometimes you have to to stay sane these
days
but anyway been around since 1963 it is
still
used so if you take a bunch of
acetaminophen
and you have an overdose of it you go to
the hospital
they’re going to crank you full a bunch
of nac to help prevent
liver damage that’s one of the reasons
that i take nac every day
i’ve been known to imbibe in
the devil’s juice that was juice devil’s
lettuce
anyway it does a lot of good it’s
it helps
your body protect itself with
antioxidants
that’s really all it does it’s really
good at it though but it also is really
good at protecting your liver
so why would the fda
make a big hubbub about nac it’s been
around since 1963.
that’s let me do the math here 770 then
we get 50 so
57 so we’re 2020. 58 years
i really hope that’s right supplements
been around for 58 years
and the fda just decided i don’t know
they didn’t have enough to do
the past year so they decided to mess
with some supplement companies
they spent our hard-earned tax dollars
which well they don’t really
it’s not really hard for them to earn
they just kind of take it from us
but there were apparently seven
supplement companies that were selling
products that were told that
help with hangovers and nac is one of
them because a it’s a really
powerful antioxidant or precursor for an
antioxidant and helps protect your liver
so you could say well someone’s hung
over an antioxidant and something that
helps your liver is probably pretty good
so the fda decided to take their time
and spend your money and write
seven letters to these companies saying
you know
you need to chill out with saying that
it cures or helps hangovers
um and then we need to review nac a
little bit more
and you’re like okay not a big deal the
fda sent some letters to seven
supplement companies
who gives a well apparently
uh amazon my favorite online
chinese retailer if you’re not familiar
with amazon
they basically allow chinese sellers
to sell to the american public and so
all the
money that you spend on amazon goes
directly to china
whereas before china would have to you
know have someone in the united states
would brand a product and then put it on
amazon
but amazon’s like it you know just
ship the stuff straight from china
warehouse we’ll sell it
and we’ll just cut out america
anyway amazon being brilliant as they
are
knee-jerk reaction they pulled all the
nac off the shelves
can’t find it i was actually looking to
refill my bottle and i was like
there’s nothing here like they literally
just with a stroke of a brush
no nac antioxidant it’s been around
since 1960 three
but you can still get it at walmart i
just ordered two bottles because
i think the fda is going to make it a
prescription medicine um
i don’t know specifically why they would
do that
anyway you put two and two together well
i’m gonna wrap up this video this was
just kind of a
opinion piece i think nxt is getting
banned
it’s been proven to help with
respiratory issues
anyway you do the math there you can
still get it at walmart
it’s a fantastic supplement i’m gonna do
another video on all the
benefits of it because there are so many
and uh i would recommend getting it like
i said i do think
it will eventually uh it’s basically
maybe like a supplement that you have to
get from a doctor
but it’s probably not gonna be fda
approved and you’ll have to get through
compounding pharmacy
it’ll probably cost three times anyway
if you’re a red-blooded american and you
like
a cold glass of uh spirited beverage
it’s great for protecting your liver
anyway guys
hope you found that video fun uh fda
wasting our money on uh
protecting no one
and uh yeah making good supplements hard
to get
because they want us to be healthier
yeah anyway if you’re new to the channel

like this video click on the like button
helps me out
helps me feel good inside but as always

Top TRT Mistakes So Many Guys Make and How to Avoid them! Testosterone Replacement Therapy Mistakes!

TRT / Testosterone Replacement Therapy can be extremely complicated to navigate as a beginner. In this video I will cover the most common Testosterone Replacement Therapy mistakes and how to avoid them!

https://youtube.com/watch?v=LcClc5hAtow

Are You Really Not Dialed in on TRT? You May Be Dialed in on TRT and Not Even Know it!

Lot’s of men start TRT with the grandiose idea that Testosterone is a magical fountain of youth that solves all of life’s problems. They expect that being on TRT will make them feel like superman each and everyday. While Testosterone and Testosterone Replacement Therapy definitely helps many men feel better in so many different areas, it has it’s limits. TRT while an amazing treatment does not fix poor lifestyle choices, stress in life and everything else that the entire population has to deal with in this quest called life. This is a delicate video because I know that lots of guys do have a real struggle getting dialed in on TRT. This video is not about these men. This video is about guys who never feel that they are dialed in because they don’t feel like a super human in every aspect every single day.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=X4ebPhgNtTo

what’s going on guys this is a sensitive
video this is a difficult video to make
and i know a lot of you uh have a lot of
issues getting dialed in
i know a lot of you guys uh you know the
situation that you have is a lot more
complicated than others
and i don’t want to come off as i’m
minimizing you know the issues you may
be having getting dialed in
but i think once we get through this
video you get a better idea of what i’m
trying to say
and it doesn’t really apply to really
getting dialed in
if that makes sense
[Music]
i hope this comes off as more of a
motivational video
and not insensitive if at any point
you feel like downvoting me or
unsubscribing
this video is definitely it does not
apply to you in any way so don’t worry
just enjoy the video it does not apply
to you let me know how you like this
video format this video format does take
a little extra time and a lot more
editing
but let me know if you like the new
format if so i’ll continue to put in the
effort for you guys
and also let me know in the comments if
you agree with me on this or if you
think i’m way off base
so it helps out the algorithm as well
now you may be watching this and saying
to yourself
listen i’m having a real 100 percent
issue getting dialed in
and that could be 100 true i’m not
discounting that at all
but i think for some people they may
look in the mirror
and realizing that they’re they’re
chasing this illusion that trt and that
testosterone
makes you feel like superman 100 of the
time i think this notion that
trt is like living life on cheat codes
you know
libidos through the roof all the time
zero anxiety
100 energy all the time morning wood

  1. i think a lot of this came from
    the trt supplements uh from trt
    clinics and just the way that’s
    perceived in society
    you’ve got frank thomas cucking girls
    husbands
    in the gym you’ve got testosterone
    boosters like
    primal surge andro test super test
    and then you’ve got trt clinics uh
    showing you know
    50 year old you know alpha chad jacked
    and shredded
    you know cruising on the beach smiling
    looking like he just raw dog megan fox
    and it gives guys this idea that if
    you’re taking
    test boosters trt or steroids you feel
    100
    all the time anything that is not
    perfect in your life
    has to do with testosterone in some way
    they paint this picture that you feel
    100 percent
    all the time on testosterone or if you
    have high testosterone levels
    and it’s giving guys a really
    unrealistic view of trt
    and when they start trt you know they
    are definitely going to feel
    better but they’re looking at it like
    wow i just i don’t feel 100 percent
    you know i don’t wake up every morning
    and just want to hop out of bed
    and go to the gym or just go kick ass at
    work sometimes i still feel tired
    sometimes i still have anxiety you know
    sometimes i don’t wake up with morning
    wood
    and they get into their head that once
    you’re on trt
    everything is freaking perfect and then
    they get in their heads and if something
    isn’t perfect they’re like oh it’s got
    to be my protocol i’m not dialed in my
    estrogen’s too high my testosterone is
    too low
    what’s going on with my proactive do i
    need to take dhea how’s my progesterone
    going
    and you know they get into this this
    mentality and this where
    everything has to be perfect when you’re
    on trt i rarely
    film outside my house and now i remember
    why i’ve got an 80 year old woman
    looking at me wonder who’s this
    that’s filming himself
    in front of a dried-up retention pond
    with some sandhill cranes
    as i said before a lot of the stems from
    the internet i mean i see people get in
    their own heads about
    trt supplements food all kinds of stuff
    seat posts like i normally take 400
    milligram vitamin c pills but
    they were out so i got 500 milligram
    vitamin c pills and i took one vitamin c
    pill and i had anxiety all day i know
    for 100 fat
    it’s because of vitamin c has anyone
    else experienced this
    okay so all i need to do is cut off 20
    percent to bring it down to 400
    milligrams
    perfect now every four days i’ll have an
    extra pill
    i changed my dose from 150 milligrams to
    160 and now my libido is completely
    tanked
    do i need to take an ai should i drop my
    hcg
    dose what should i do should i inject
    more frequently i mean just getting in
    their own head
    i just switched from weekly injections
    to twice a week injections and now i got
    two pimples on my back and my skin’s a
    little oily
    and i think i had brain fog yesterday
    what should i do has anyone experienced
    this
    once again i’m not trying to minimize
    the side effects and getting dialed in
    that’s not what i’m trying to do with
    this video
    what i’m trying to point out to you is
    you know you’re just getting your
    hormones back to where they’re supposed
    to be
    you’re not going to be a superhuman
    you’re not going to feel 100
    all the time and i can tell you this
    if unless you are on the brink of like a
    huge hormone imbalance
    10 milligrams a week isn’t going to make
    you feel any different
    maybe the slightest little bit but it’s
    not going to make you feel from going
    feeling okay
    to feeling like complete garbage to
    where you feel the need to post it
    online
    once again i’m not trying to minimize
    side effects it’s just
    i think a lot of people get in their
    freaking head about this and they just
    make it
    everything’s about trt now you know i
    wake up i’m tired
    it’s trt had anxiety trt
    didn’t get morning wood trt i don’t know
    i hope this
    video is helpful to some people and
    someone can look in the mirror and be
    like you know what
    i was focusing too much on trt i hope
    this video is helpful
    for someone out there who is just
    getting too into the whole trt thing
    they just got it in their head and
    every little thing that happens in their
    life it’s trt
    anxiety is trt if you don’t get morning
    wood it’s trt
    you know it’s you just kind of have to
    not everything’s gonna be perfect on trt
    it’s not you’re not gonna be frank
    thomas
    no there’s no there’s no problem officer
    i’m just uh making a shitty youtube
    video
    why is it shitty all my videos are
    pretty shitty this one i’m actually
    trying to make a little better
    i have i have about 6 000 followers
    there’s no reason to laugh it’s a dick
    move
    getting your test levels from low to
    normal does not
    block you from all of life stressors it
    does not give you infinite energy
    and it does not shield you from anxiety
    and
    you know just that happens in life
    the internet is definitely a
    double-edged
    sword on one end it gives you the
    ability to access endless information
    and do
    lots of research on this topic
    on the flip side it gives you the
    ability to get into your own head
    and kind of echo chamber with other
    people
    and you know post every little thing
    that happens to you
    negatively you know and it’s
    i think the more information is better
    and it outweighs the bad but a lot of
    people just get really into their heads
    and just focus solely
    well i’m on trt now so everything that
    happens in my life
    has to do in some way with trt back in
    the day
    you know a guy on trt this is before the
    internet
    has a rough day feels like he’s got
    brain fog he’s tired just had a bad day
    you know he couldn’t sit there and jump
    on reddit and say
    hey guys you know i adjusted my protocol
    you know 10 milligrams last week and
    today i had
    brain fog anxiety and i’m really tired
    you know he just had to
    you know suck it up had a rough day you
    know put that behind him
    and then wake up tomorrow and kick ass
    and take names
    damn honey i had a rough day at the
    office today i
    was just tired all day i am just i’m
    dragging ass
    quit being such a whiny little
    frank go take out the garbage
    he didn’t have the internet or the
    ability to post to be able to convince
    himself that it’s his protocol’s fault
    and that’s the reason he had a bad day
    and i think this is where a lot of guys
    run into trouble
    you know they had a rough day feel like
    they’re tired
    long day at the office and you know they
    just don’t want to accept that they just
    had a rough day because they’re on trt
    when you’re on trt you don’t have rough
    days you feel 100
    24 7. frank just had to suck it up he
    had to say
    i had a day but it’s not because of
    my trt
    it’s because i had a day it’s
    because i’m human and we’re not designed
    to be machines
    and just have good days 24 7. so he
    decided to suck it up
    wake up tomorrow and make tomorrow my
    let me know if you like this new
    format
    of like switching up the places throwing
    in some skits here and there
    um i actually i was watching trt
    community’s latest video
    and his production value is fantastic
    and that’s something i need to jump up
    let me know if you enjoyed it let me
    know what your thoughts are on this do
    you think
    a lot of guys are getting in their heads
    and just focusing on trt
    and anything that goes wrong is their
    protocol or do you think that guys are
    just really having that much of an
    issue uh getting dialed in on trt
    i’m a really bad example of this or i’m
    not really the person that
    i don’t really have a leg to stand in in
    this argument because i feel fine
    200 milligrams i feel fine at 500
    milligrams i feel good on
    500 milligrams no ai i feel good on 200
    milligrams with ai
    hcg 500 1000 1500
    it doesn’t really affect me so i
    understand
    i don’t want to come off as like oh well
    everyone’s like me they’re not and i
    totally get that
    i’m just i see a lot of guys posting a
    lot of little
    minute school things that happen to them
    for one day and they want to blame their
    whole entire protocol and switch it up
    and
    get into this whole yeah anyway guys
    thanks for being here love the support
    love you guys you’re awesome
    and as always get your levels tested

Greg Doucette – Watching Less Than Last Time!!! Why He Doesn’t Care About You Watching His Videos!

Greg Doucette’s channel has blown up to over 1 million subscribers. But many people like myself are barely watching any of his videos anymore. The Youtube algorithm doesn’t even recommend his videos to me anymore. In this video I explain why Greg does not care if his core demographic of viewers watch his videos anymore, and why it is a brilliant strategy!

https://youtube.com/watch?v=CjlICIGxcHo

i’m not mad i’m not even disappointed
but i cannot bring myself to watch
videos on female tick-tock stars
and instagram drama over diets
but i totally understand why greg does
it and it’s actually pretty brilliant
what’s going on guys texture levels here
today we’re going to be talking about
greg ducett’s channel and his channel
has changed
over the past year and it has blown up
over the past year
he’s gone from about 100 000 subscribers
to a million
and a couple people i’ve seen post on
instagram
about you know they’re not watching
greg’s videos anymore
and you know he does videos that they
don’t really watch it’s not their
demographic
so i thought i would cover it and
explain why greg does this
and why it’s really really smart so one
of my buddies on instagram he’s got a
pretty good page not gonna mention him
he did a poll asking if people still
watched greg’s channel
and he said i’ve been watching greg
since he had like 5 000 subs and all his
videos were on
you know peds bodybuilding dieting
working out and he just can’t watch it
anymore
because you know he’s doing a lot of
videos on tick tockers and instagram and
you know a lot different type of content
and i was like wow that’s exactly how i
feel
you know i i started watching greg a
while ago
and i realized i haven’t watched a greg
ducette video in a long time
and then today these two videos popped
up in my feed
and it was one it was some thick girl’s
diagnosis
and i’m cool with that more cushion for
the
well you know and the other one was some
butt stuffing video
and i probably would have watched that
if it wasn’t on the youtube platform
you may think that i’m going to go on
some rant about how greg’s channel has
jumped the shark and
it doesn’t appeal to his core
demographic anymore and
you know he’s just making garbage videos
blah blah blah
but i’m not what he’s doing is extremely
brilliant
and he does it on purpose and i’ll tell
you what it is a little later on and
you’re going to be like
wow that makes a lot of sense i started
watching greg about the time
that he started coaching brandon harding
i liked brandon harding because he was
open about gear he was open about
bodybuilding
and when i saw that this guy greg
ducette who i had never heard of
was coaching him for free i was pretty
intrigued this is how i was introduced
to greg you said
and it wasn’t by accident more about
that later on another note i do think
that brandon harding handled that whole
situation pretty poorly
and came off as pretty immature at the
time
but i do understand he’s a young kid i
don’t know how old he was at the time
early 20s mid-20s on a bunch of gear
i i can understand if i was that young
and i was on a bunch of gear
i may not have made the best decisions
as well
coach greg is really smart and when you
pair that with
140 milligrams of hrt you have a pretty
potent team
now did greg agree to coach brandon for
free
because he thought that he had a lot of
potential to get his pro card
i don’t know maybe but at the end of the
day
brandon harding had about 400 000
subscribers at the time
so by investing just basically his time
and coaching
which is money because he can’t be
coaching two people at the same
time but he’s getting exposure on
brandon’s channel
that’s the way i found out about greg
that’s why i subscribed was i was like
hey
you know brandon harding’s pretty jacked
pretty big into bodybuilding
this guy’s coaching him for free let me
click on his channel see a couple of his
videos
and boom now i’m subscriber i’m sure i
wasn’t the only one
now whether greg thought about this
strategy consciously or not
i don’t know maybe he can let us know in
his rebuttal video
not even a rebuttal because i’m not
ripping on greg but either way
it worked and it does work and he’s
continued to do the strategy
in a little bit different way here are
some screenshots of greg’s channel and
the videos he was putting out
around the time that he was coaching
brandon harding and the whole
issue arose you can see it’s you know
bodybuilding
peds dieting working out bodybuilding
stuff
stuff that guys in this genre would
watch
scroll forward and you’ll see the videos
are a lot different there are still some
bodybuilding stuff
included but it’s a lot different style
of video in different genres
who the heck is tess holliday joffrey
verity shofield’s copyright strike
steffy cohen cardio lies demi lovato
crying over ice cream
to be clear i’m not mad at greg i’m not
disappointed
i’m not saying his channel is bad in any
way shape or form
it’s just a different style of video not
really a different style but
on different topics and it’s just not in
my demographic anymore
but it’s obviously in the demographic of
about 900 000 people
means come here come on come here
come on mops get comfy you’re good
you’re good greg calls making videos on
other people
chasing cloud or more spews more views
but greg didn’t have to chase clout for
very long because he gained subscribers
very fast
all he had to do is chase exposure all
he needs to do is make a video on
someone
and then that video gets circulated on
that person’s social media pages
and then therefore is exposed to
those persons followers good or bad it
doesn’t matter
you’re still getting free exposure on
large social media pages
make a video on a tick tock girl tag her
on instagram and tick tock on the video
or even better her followers will
probably tag her in the video
and then she’s going to mention the
video on her social media
it could be oh my god coach greg made
this nasty video about me
or it could be oh my god coach greg made
a video about me
either way it’s solid exposure to a
large amount of possible subscribers
these are the same social media accounts
they get like five thousand
fifty thousand dollars for a post
promoting a certain product
the product or brand is paying for
exposure on these channels
due to the amount of eyes that are
seeing their post
but greg’s actually getting it for free
i mean outside of his time and paying
his editor
he’s getting free exposure on people’s
social media accounts that have
huge followings now you’re starting to
see why this is so brilliant and why his
channel has exploded so fast in such a
little bit of time
you remember when greg made a video on
cali muscle
do you think greg really has a problem
or dislikes cali muscle
i don’t know but probably not but cali
muscle
made three videos on greg and put it on
his instagram his youtube he has over
two million people on youtube
so greg got all this free exposure on
cali muscle’s page because he made a
video on him
like i said i doubt greg has an issue
with cali muscle but you can see how the
strategy plays into this
i am pretty sure though that callie
muscle doesn’t like greg
now don’t get me wrong like i said this
is a brilliant strategy
but it would not have worked if greg was
not entertaining
and knew his now you’re probably
saying to yourself
oh why couldn’t greg just do the same
thing and employ the strategy but just
on bodybuilders and fitness people the
kind of people that i would watch
why would he there’s a limited amount of
bodybuilders there’s a limited amount of
people that watch
and are interested in bodybuilding so
why not use the strategy
and spread it out to instagram
influencers tick-tock influencers
different people different genres
different audience more subscribers
now the only downside to the strategy is
that
the original core group of people
that watched your channel when you were
starting you know you’re doing videos
that are a little bit different outside
of their genre
so there’s a good chance they probably
aren’t going to watch a lot of your
videos
at least not enough for me for youtube
to recommend
really any of greg’s videos onto my feed
now he still does pop up here and there
and he still does some bodybuilding
videos
but there’s a lot of other different
types of stuff sprinkled in that do not
appeal to me
and apparently the youtube algorithm
does not feel that they need to show me
greg’s videos all the time
i had a few people message me on
instagram and they basically said like
you know it sucks when you start
watching a channel
and you really like that channel and
then they switch topics or switch genres
and you know you don’t really like the
videos anymore it’s not your types of
topics
and you can you can be disappointed you
can be upset
but at the end of the day youtube and
social media is a business
you can kind of use the music industry
as an example of this
you know say a brand new band comes out
they put out their first album
and you just love the music you’re a fan
you buy a shirt it’s all good
you love them and then their second
album comes out
and it’s a little bit different than
their first album it may be harder it
may be
softer than before and you might not
like that style of music you like the
original the first album and you just
wish they could put out a second album
that was the same as the first but
different
it’s kind of the same idea but if that
second album
the one that you don’t like appeals to a
whole bunch of people a lot more people
than the first one
well band’s going to make more money the
label is going to make more money
and they’re going to have a larger fan
base now do you think that their label
is going to come to them and say
guys you guys are killing it money-wise
but we really need you to go back to
your first album and put out a third
album that’s more like the first
so that you can appeal to your core
demographic of people that supported you
in the business in the first place
no no they’re not they’re gonna see you
guys are killing it
you’re making a ton of money and look
you have all kinds of new followers and
new subscribers and new people buying
your albums and your shirts
so let’s keep going with this because
you’re making more money and you have
more fans
now bringing this back to youtube do you
really care
i’m not saying that anyone on youtube
doesn’t care about their original
thousand subscribers
but at the end of the day do you care if
your first 100
000 subscribers only watch 10 of the
videos that you put out
when your new 900 000 subscribers are
watching 50
of the videos that you put out think of
it in raw numbers
youtube gives you a lot of analytics
that you can see so when you post a
video you can say oh
video on this topic got 500 000 views
video on this topic got 100 000. when
you’re looking at doing a new video
which video are you going to probably do
a video similar to
500 000 and speaking about money who do
you think’s more likely to buy a
cookbook
someone who’s been weightlifting for 12
years and on gear
or 35 year old accountant who’s kind of
let their physique slip a little bit and
it’s looking to lose a little bit of
weight
don’t hate on greg for changing up his
channel if you were
given the scenario that greg has you
would do the exact same thing
if someone said hey you can make videos
on peds and bodybuilding
and you’ll have 200 000 subs or
you can do videos on tick tock and
instagram influencers
and have a million subscribers and sell
a ton of cookbooks
what would you do don’t you lie to me
trust me
greg isn’t going to be sitting on the
pool deck of his second vacation home in
mexico
regretting that he didn’t make more
videos on tren now you can be mad you
can be disappointed at greg
you can be upset that he doesn’t make
videos tailored to you
but at the end of the day greg made a
smart business decision
now if greg can just give me the
opportunity to say oh my god
greg made a video about me smiley face
fire emoji
smiley face that’s about it guys hope
you found this entertaining and
informational uh informational is that
even a word
anyway greg’s killing it greg’s making a
ton of money
and his channel is growing so love it or
hate it
that’s the way it is but thanks for

Does Low Testosterone cause Heart Issues? Two New Studies Show That It?

Does Low Testosterone cause Heart Issues? Two New Studies Show That It?

https://youtube.com/watch?v=ko8E3nfMqlU

what’s going on guys texture levels here
thanks for being with me
today i’ve got two very recent studies
on t levels and heart issues
and if you’ve been in this trt space or
you’ve talked to some doctors
they may have told you that testosterone
is pretty much bad for your heart
and uh they may have denied you
treatment for that but uh we’re gonna do
a quick medical disclaimer and we will
jump into these studies and these tie
into another video that i have
that is a whole different study that is
pretty
it’s pretty wild and i will leave a link
to that toward the end of this video so
you can check that out but it’s pretty
freaking wild
so here we have from march 2021
association of serum free testosterone
level with coronary artery disease and
patients
candidate for coronary artery bypass
graft surgery
i got this cool little highlighter thing
so we can not cover the entire article
just the important stuff
due to the controversy over the effect
of serum testosterone levels on coronary
artery diseases
this survey explores the serum levels of
free testosterone
luteinizing hormone and follicle
stimulating hormone
in candidates for coronary artery bypass
graft
compared with an age-matched control
group and evaluates the associated
factors in these participants
in total 100 men were enrolled 50 were
the case studies and 50 were controls
their serum levels of free and total
testosterone luteinizing hormone fsh
were measured and the results were
compared the findings indicate a
significant
difference between the two groups in
total and free testosterone
they were lower in the case group the
people who had the heart issue
there was also a significant difference
in total testosterone of the
participants with diabetes
compared with non-diabetic individuals
and free testosterone of diabetic
subjects taking insulin was lower
compared to those taking no insulin
that’s interesting but it’s not what
we’re talking about
there’s also an association between body
mass index and free testosterone
obviously this study illustrates that
participants with coronary artery
disease bury significantly low
testosterone level in comparison with
the healthy control group so this study
doesn’t cover
trt it’s not saying you know these guys
on trt were healthier than these guys
who had the heart issues
what it’s saying is that you know these
guys that have the heart issues
they have low testosterone is it because
they have the heart issue
we don’t know is it that they have low
testosterone for a long period of time
and they developed heart disease we
don’t know
but i mean the guys that are healthy
have a higher testosterone level
naturally
than these guys with the heart issue do
naturally
you know you can’t really extrapolate
out from that and say you know if you
took exogenous testosterone you know you
have a better chance of having a
healthier heart
you can’t say that and that’s you know
one of the limitations of studies
you can just look at exactly what the
study did and what they found
and go off that this next study is a
little bit different
a little bit more positive toward
testosterone in the heart not that this
one wasn’t but we just can’t extrapolate
anything from it
prognostic value in total testosterone
levels in patients with acute coronary
syndromes
exogenous testosterone levels decrease
in men with aging
controversies persist regarding the
screening and treatment of low
testosterone levels in patients with
acute coronary syndromes or acs
total serum testosterone levels are
measured in 1054 men hospitalized for
acs
they were part of a swiss prospective
cohort total testosterone levels were
classified first in tertiles and using
the cutoff of
300 nanograms per deciliter the primary
endpoint was all
caused mortality at one year a total of
430 men
40.8 percent in this study had total
testosterone
equal or less than 300 nanograms per
deciliter
low testosterone levels were correlated
with lower hdl
cholesterol which is good cholesterol
and higher triglycerides
and a couple other things patients in
the lowest testosterone tertile
had a mortality rate of one year 5.4
percent
compared with just 2.9 percent in the
highest tertile with an unadjusted
hazard ratio of 1.92
95 confidence in an exploratory analysis
the highest mortality rate 10.3 percent
was
observed in men aged 65 or less
years old belonging to the lowest
testosterone tertile in this population
of men with acs we found a prevalence of
low
total endogenous testosterone levels
almost 40 percent
however low testosterone levels were not
significantly associated with mortality
after adjustment for high-risk co-found
confounders
so once again this study does not does
not say
straight up like if these guys have low
testosterone and they started on trt
they wouldn’t be in the study in the
first place because they would have
never had a heart issue they can’t say
that at all
i mean what they’re saying is that you
know the majority of this group of men
who did have this condition
have low testosterone i mean this is
just my personal opinion but i feel that
if these guys did have low testosterone
for a long period of time
they most likely have lower estrogen
levels and estrogen
is neuroprotective and it does protect
the heart and testosterone is you know
it’s a base hormone for men
and all these other hormones trickle off
it i mean there’s tons of hormones you
know in the interplay
but when you have one that’s really low
for whatever reason you know the other
hormones are affected and it throws your
body off
but it’s just interesting to see because
trt got pretty popular started to become
more mainstream in 2013
that’s when you started to see
frank thomas with the new gen x
commercials and
there was another pill they used to sell
guys i can’t remember what the heck it
was called
it was on tv all the time but it was for
you know
in the bedroom but during that time 2013
is when a lot of these heart studies
came out showing that trt is bad for
your heart
trt causes uh heart attacks trt causes
your left ventricle you know all those
issues
and in the video that i’ll put up at the
top here oh
my it’s like reverse backwards i’m in a
different anyway
moving forward i’ll put it up on the
screen but basically there was a study
that went back and looked at all these
other studies from 2013
and they found out that they did a
pretty horrible job
on those studies and it’s just
interesting that when trt started
getting popular and testosterone started
getting into the mainstream
somehow these poorly done studies on
heart attacks and trt
started to pop up i’m not a conspiracy
theorist it’s just a very weird
coincidence and it just seems i mean
if you’ve been a follower of my channel
i’ve put out a lot of videos on new
studies that
not don’t necessarily discredit the old
studies but they’re newer studies
and they find the opposite of the old
studies
what that means i don’t know it’s just a
very
it’s a very interesting coincidence that
you know these new studies
coming out are just you know they’re
saying the exact opposite of all these
ones that came out
when trt started becoming popular i know
a lot of you guys have commented in my
comments you know like they’re trying to
keep men down they want men’s
testosterone levels to be down
you know a weak population is an easy
population to
you know whatever i’m not going down
that rabbit hole i’ll probably get
demonetized for that
but it’s just really interesting i mean
i don’t i don’t like cherry pick these
articles i don’t find ones that
you know i don’t see ones that show
these guys are on trt and they’re you
know
dropping dead and i’m like no that
doesn’t look good for the channel
and then i pop on one like this or these
two and i’m like oh wow that’s
you know i’m really going to push this
trt but that’s not what i do these are
just the articles that i come across
and every single one that i’ve seen
lately has been freaking positive toward
testosterone
it’s crazy and testosterone and so many
guys are have low testosterone right now
i think there’s going to be a massive
massive epidemic if it’s not already
happening i mean
there’s lots of diseases that we didn’t
used to weren’t very common back in the
day and conditions
that weren’t very common that are
extremely common diabetes cancer heart
issues
i don’t know i can’t say that if you
start with low testosterone and you stay
on trt that you’ll have a better outcome
but for me it’s just my thought that
a hormone that the body needs if it’s
low and you get it to where it needs to
be
just seems to be that just makes sense
to me that just clicks in my little
dumb little noodle over here it just
makes sense to me so
anyway guys let me know what you think
in the comments i mean you’ve seen some
of my videos well if you haven’t
and you’re new click on the subscribe
button it’s free you can change your
mind at any time
and you really don’t know how it means
to me how much it means to me
but you know let me know i mean a lot of
you guys do research i mean are you
seeing the same thing that i am that
these new studies about
you know prostate heart stuff uh you
know you know
thickening of the blood uh not being as
bad as what they thought
uh when it’s just because of
testosterone not lifestyle let me know
what your thoughts are
if you like this video and you want me
to keep on searching for
articles and pulling up all the stuff
related to testosterone and
you know letting you guys see them click
on the like button leave me a comment it
helps the algorithm
i stole that from more plates more dates
what’s up derek
and uh that’s about it guys so if you
want to see me do more
let me know and i’ll continue to do it
just wild that these new studies
are basically saying the opposite of the
old ones but i’ll leave you with that
but as always guys you’re awesome thanks
for being here

Does Higher Testosterone Give You a Competitive Advantage in Life? New Study Asks This Question!

Does Higher Testosterone Give You a Competitive Advantage in Life? New Study Asks This Question!

https://youtube.com/watch?v=Y7imO02O62w

what’s going on guys tester levels here
thanks for being here
ran across a pretty interesting study
and uh i want to
tell you what they did in the study and
uh at the end of the video i’m going to
tell you how you can use the results of
the study
to improve and advance in your life i
know you’re like wow
that’s going on with the study so
basically what they did is they took a
placebo group or a control and they took
another group and they gave them
a particular something which we can’t
say because
it’s the first 30 seconds of the video
and youtube
but they took these two different groups
and they put them in situations where
there was a
pretty good chance they were going to
lose and they wanted to see
what each one of these groups would do
and uh
i’ll jump right into the study and then
i’ll come back and give you my thoughts
and how you can use this to your
advantage so let’s take a look at this
study
not giving up testosterone promotes
persistence against a stronger opponent
recent research suggests that when we
lack a sense of control we are prone to
motivational failures and early quitting
and competitions
testosterone on the other hand is
thought to boost competitiveness
healthy participants will administer a
single dose of testosterone or placebo
now just real quick where are all these
studies going on where they’re giving
guys testosterone and paying them
because
sign me the hell up i don’t care what
kind of test you do just juice me up
healthy participants were administered a
single dose of testosterone or placebo
they first underwent a task designed to
either induce low or high perceived
control
and then entered a costly competition
against a progressively stronger
opponent
that they could quit at any time in the
placebo group men with low perceived
control
quitted twice as early as those with
high perceived control
testosterone countered this effect
making individuals with low control
persist
in the competition for as long as those
with high perceived control
and did so also despite raising
participants explicit awareness
of the opponent’s advantage this
psychoendocrinological effect
holy psychoendocrine wow
effect was not modulated with basal
cortisol levels cag repeat polymorphism
and the androgen receptor gene or trait
dominance
our results provide the first casual
evidence that testosterone promotes
competitive persistence in humans
and demonstrate that this effect depends
on the psychological state
elicited prior to the competition
broadening our understanding
of the complex relationships between
testosterone
and social behaviors let’s jump onto the
mandrel and i’ll give you my thoughts
so now that you saw that the group that
was given testosterone
when they were put in a situation where
there was a good chance that they were
going to lose they said nah
that’s not going to happen i’m going to
be persistent i’m going to persevere and
i’m going to achieve this goal
now let’s put this into some
perspectives of life
so let’s say you’re on the dating scene
and you’re at the bar
and you see the future love of your life
this girl is smoking
you just fall in love instantly you walk
over there
you talk to her things are going well
and then [ _ ] testosterone timmy comes up and starts [ _ ] blocking you
and you’re like well [ _ ] testosterone timmy’s jacked he’s talking to my new future girlfriend you know probably gonna she’s probably gonna go with him so what are you gonna do well if you have low testosterone and according to the study you probably you know slink off and see if you can find another girl you just give up because in your mind and statistically you are most likely going to lose this battle with testosterone timmy but if you had normal the high testosterone levels you’re going to say you know what [ _ ] you timmy this is my girl i saw her
first
and you know you’re going to walk out of
that bar you’re going to persevere
and you’re going to walk out there with
your future ex-wife let’s throw this
scenario out at work
so you’re at work let’s say you work in
sales your boss throws out some type of
sales
challenge an officer promotion to the
winner
so you’re plugging away you’re cold
calling you’re making these calls
and you feel like you’re doing pretty
good and then you start to see the
leaderboard
alpha man mike is starting to kick ass
he’s starting to drop those numbers
well if you’ve been sipping soy lattes
and watching the bachelor for the past
six months
you’re probably gonna look at the
leaderboard and be like uh alphaman
mike’s crushing it
i might as well just you know give up
alpha male mike he’s gonna get that
promotion
it’s gonna suck you know me and the wife
we’re not gonna be able to get that new
house or the boat whatever
but if you had normal to high
testosterone levels and you had that
[ _ ] alpha male high testosterone mentality you’re gonna say you know what screw alpha man mike i hate that guy you’re such a dick and you’re gonna get on your phone and you’re gonna start cold calling like crazy and you’re gonna start selling you’re going to be smooth as hell because you know that you can beat alpha male mike and even if you don’t you still made some sales and made some money this comes down to the most basic survival skills so let’s say you’re a caveman right you and caveman carl both walk up on a dead wooly mammoth you both look at each other caveman caught carl has about 30 pounds on you you know he’s got a cave woman to feed you’ve got a cave woman to feed but you need this woolly mammoth and so does carl now you know if you’ve uh been sitting in the cave too long having to get your vitamin d from the sun you know you’ve been whatever you know what i’m saying and uh you’re just look at carl and be like you know i guess it’s his woolly mammoth he’s got 30 pounds on me but if you have that alpha male mentality and you have the testosterone levels to back it up you say you know what i need this woolly mammoth and i’m basically going to fight carl to the death until either i kill him or he kills me and we bring this woolly moment one of us brings us woolly mammoth back home to our family so that we survive for the winter you know you may win you may die but that’s how evolution works and that’s how testosterone changes our brain and you know works in our brain to make us want to persevere to win to achieve to survive so how do we use this knowledge in life how do we apply this to life now back in the day things were a lot more simple like i said with you know caveman carl and the woolly mammoth well back in the day you either killed coral and guttural a mammoth where he died now things are a little complicated these days because we have civilization and rules and laws but you know the same thing can apply you know killing coral is the same idea as killing alpha male mike but you have to beat him in sales calls you have to use your brain a little bit more so you have to get this mentality you know let’s say you’re on trt you have normal testosterone levels there’s no excuse for you not to want to persevere and win in situations where you may not have the advantage this is where it comes down to your brain your mentality and your confidence level now don’t get me wrong i get it if you’ve had low testosterone for 15 years let’s say you know you’re in the habit of doing those beta male traits those beta male actions giving up in the face of adversity you know you see caveman carl and you’re like i’m good you know i’ll figure out something else instead of you know charging caveman carl and you know hitting him or whatever i guess i don’t know can you say stabbing on youtube i know probably not i probably just [ _ ] myself but anyway
you have to get out of that mentality
you have to think
i am an alpha male i can accomplish this
i have all the tools
i am an alpha freaking male and you have
to look at alpha man mike and be like no
he’s not winning i am going to win or i
am going to die trying i’m going to give
it my all i’m going to give it my
best that’s the mentality you have to
get into
and this study freaking proves it you
know if you have
normal to higher testosterone levels
it’s already in you it’s already in you
you just have to turn on the switch
and i know civilization everyone tells
you to be a nice guy be nice be a nice
guy
be fair that’s not how it works that’s
not how you get
farther in life being the nice guy and
you know just doing all the nice things
and all that
no life is cut throat especially i mean
you look at business with sales
you don’t make the sale someone else
will someone else will step on your sale
they’ll go behind you and close the deal
behind you
i’m not saying to do any of that stuff
but i’m just saying that
you have to have that cutthroat alpha
male mentality
that’s how civilizations were made
that’s how empires were built
that’s all those skyscrapers that you
see these massive companies
they were alpha males that said i don’t
care what the challenge is
i’m going to accomplish it or die trying
that’s about it guys
i hope this was motivational you know i
saw this study and i was like this is a
pretty interesting study but let me try
to put it into
real life and you know i know a lot of
you guys have
had that beta mentality for a long time
i had the same thing
you know i’m not really going to win at
this i might as well just give up
but i mean nowadays i’m like [ _ ] it i’m going to win i don’t care i’m just going to go balls out you know and you can apply this to any part of your life that you know you may be lacking in or you may be facing some adversity but just remember you’re a [ _ ] alpha male
you know if you have normal the high
testosterone levels it’s already inside
you it’s right here
it’s right here and right here so flick
on that switch
bring it out kick ass and uh tell
caveman cockerell the [ __ ] off
but anyway guys as always you’re awesome
and get your levels tested

Three Years of TRT Lab Work! Are Testosterone Tests even Accurate? LabCorp Testosterone Test

In this video I go over three years of TRT Lab Work from LabCorp. The results of these labs are baffling and make me question how accurate Testosterone tests actually are.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=aw0xj5PE0kY

we’ve been through a lot
but we need to have a talk
i’m gonna be honest i don’t trust their
ranges i don’t trust the way they’re
testing
uh the last two out of the three labs
that i’ve had done
have been messed up and could have
messed up my treatment
so yeah that’s about where we stand
right now it’s all about humanity
[Music]
what is going on guys tester levels here
thanks for being here with me today
today we’re going to go over three years
of labs that i have
and this latest one is pretty darn
interesting
and makes absolutely no sense at all and
there’s a lot of stuff in these tests
that
make no sense at all it doesn’t make
sense why it took
labcorp 15 days to post my results
online
but that’s a whole other story so we’re
going to jump right in and i’m
i know there’s a lot of new people on
the channel so we’re just going to run
through
you know my labs from start to finish
almost exactly three years
and i think you guys will be interested
to see how some of the numbers
have how much they fluctuate randomly
which
i don’t know if that’s lab corp i don’t
know if that’s uh
the prescription that i have but uh yeah
we’ll get into that
so i’ve got my handy dandy little
tracker here that i use
and i have a link to it somewhere if i
remember i’ll put it in the video
in the description so you guys can use
this same thing
or you can just create something
different you know similar to this that
you can use
let’s jump right in let’s not waste time
so
april 6 2018 so this was before i was on
trt
at all this was just a very basic test
that i had to beg my doctor to give me
um and he didn’t test free test
didn’t test sensitive e2 shbg
um that’s all all he tested was total
test
so as you can see on screen i hope you
can see 288
and this is when my doctor told me that
i was good i was in range i was above
264
uh that i had to have muscle wasting ed
the inability to to get the opposite of
ed
in order for him to consider the gel
that was the last time that i ever saw
that doctor so this next blood work
was when i was joining defy and this was
200 milligrams of scipionate
split up to twice per week or 100
milligrams twice per week you know what
i’m saying
this was done kind of uh
on my own a little bit if you know what
i’m saying and
you also see my weight 247 was my
starting weight
and if you can see over here my starting
weight or my ending weight is 214.
i’ve gotten as low as 211 but i’m kind
of bulking up a little bit
if you know what i’m saying so uh yeah
maybe a little extra water weight
maybe i’m just fat so on this test from
defy free test 43.5
pretty high total test 1064.
you guys are gonna love this one i put
this in magenta
uh sensitive e2 this one’s actually
sensitive e2 from defy
72.7 i know a lot of you guys are
looking at that like
wow that’s crazy 72.7 um
but i don’t have any symptoms from it my
skin’s a little oily i break out from
time to time but i don’t have
really issues with estrogen i’ve said on
this channel before
i’ve gone over i’ve gone to 500
milligrams a week back in the day
didn’t have any issues i mean i looked
like a sunburnt
uh michelin man i just bloated up with
water
and i looked very red all the time and
people would ask me how the beach was on
thursday
when it was raining outside anyway but
shbg
25 just remember that one um i know you
can look over and see other numbers but
just stick along with me stick along
uh hematocrit 51 so that was on the
higher side looks like we jumped up from
47 to 51
in just under two months so that’s
pretty that’s pretty interesting that’s
a big jump that’s right at the top of
the range
red blood cell not too worried about
cholesterol my cholesterol dropped 20
points in two months
and my triglycerides dropped nearly 50
points maybe a little over 50 points in
two months
that’s pretty crazy and keep in mind
through this time i was exercising
and i was taking testosterone so i’m not
too worried about any of these other
numbers
um you know ldl ldl wasn’t that bad
hdl dropped a little bit that’s to be
expected
this next blood work was with a private
doctor
uh i’d like to fi nothing wrong with
defy but my buddy had a local doctor
that he was using for trt and he
introduced me to him
and he kept me on the same protocol 200
milligrams of test thousand ius of hcg
and 0.375 milligrams of remedex
so in the next three months i dropped
another five pounds
my free test was a little lower uh my
total test was higher
uh this doctor did not check for
sensitive e2 or shbg
i’m adequate 52.2 this jumped up
um i believe i donated in between this
but i can’t guarantee that but i’m
almost 100 sure i
uh donated blood at this point red blood
cell count was high
cholesterol crept up a little bit
triglycerides stayed about the same
hdl tanked to uh 35
and ldl jumped up to 88. that’s typical
when you’re on trt your hdl is going to
drop
and your ldl is going to jump up now
this next one same doctor jumped at my
aramidex a little bit
uh dropped another 10 pounds free test
is about the same
total test is about the same at 1086. he
did do shpg this time
21.2 a little bit on the lower end
nothing crazy
hematocrit 51.9 that’s on the higher end
triglycerides jumped up cholesterol
stayed about the same
hdl jumped up a little bit from 35 but
it’s still below the range of 39.
ldl went down a little bit so that’s
good
now 8 29 2019 i switched up my protocol
a little bit
same amount of tests no issues i dropped
from a thousand ius to 800 i use
and i jumped up i kept my arimidex a
little bit the same
at half a milligram now i just dropped
the
hcg a little bit i just didn’t really
see the need for it and i was kind of
seeing can i go lower and you know
get the same results and so far i have
so 218 dropped another seven pounds free
test was
up this is one of the tests that i’m a
little annoyed at lab corp about
and this next three tests they’re just
two out of the three are random like so
when i’m not one of those people that
wake up and like oh wow i have a blood
test today i haven’t prepared at all
when i set an appointment for my blood
test i make sure okay i do it on
thursday i do it about 9

  1. right i don’t want to see it right
    at 8 in the morning i want to see it a
    little lower i want my doctor to see it
    a little bit lower i don’t want him to
    get worried
    not that i changed my protocol up so
    before each one of these next three
    tests
    on monday afternoon i did half a
    milliliter
    of pharmaceutical grade testosterone
    it’s from sipla
    all three of these have been from sipla
    if you saw my instagram and i’ll put my
    instagram down there
    check me out on instagram i share a lot
    of stuff that i can’t put on this
    channel
    i’ve got like four bottles built up of
    cipla that’s all they give me at walmart
    so it’s all the exact same testosterone
    monday
    100 milligrams thursday i take my blood
    test
    and i fast so there should be very
    little variance
    but on this particular test i pulled a
    1384.
    this is my first blood test with my new
    doctor so
    you can imagine that i was a little
    concerned that he was going to
    lower my dose you know he i’m buddies
    with him
    i’m not best buddies with him but i can
    sure as hell tell you that he would drop
    me as a patient
    over losing his medical license or
    putting his medical license in jeopardy
    so i mean if this was a mess up on labs
    labcorp
    or whatever i don’t know how they test
    blood but if they did something wrong or
    their machine was not calibrated it was
    off
    they pulled a 1384 i know a lot of you
    guys out there
    your doctors would be like whoa whoa
    whoa stop the clock
    that’s a ronnie reference if you know
    what i’m saying
    1384 they say well okay you’re at 200
    and you’re you know you’re way above the
    964 or whatever it is 916.
    so we’re gonna drop you to uh you know
    160
  2. but look at this next test right
    back where i need to be
    exact same scenario same testosterone
    same time frame
    everything’s the same and now it’s a
    thousand so i think this was just an
    anomaly i think this was just a mess up
    on lab corp an inaccurate test
    but this could have kind of me
    you know brand new doctor
    first time getting blood work pull up
    1384 when all the other times three in a
    row i’ve pulled you know between a
    thousand and eleven hundred
    not too happy with lab corp but the shbg
    pretty much exactly the same as the last
    test uh hematocrit
    jumped down a little bit fantastic my
    triglycerides went down
    keep in mind i also lost seven pounds uh
    hdl jumped up to 41 in range but my ldl
    also jumped up
    and my psa 0.8 that’s your prostate
    uh you definitely want to keep an eye on
    that you don’t want to see that
    rise um you know it’s not like if you
    have a certain amount of it that means
    you’re going to get you know prostate
    cancer
    but if it starts to rise up that’s
    something you need to keep an eye on and
    talk to your doctor about
    so pretty weird test um
    you know i mean like if my shbg was a
    lot lower and this was 1384 like i could
    kind of see it
    but i mean in this i actually dropped
    you know 200 ius of hcg
    and it jumped up 300 points makes no
    sense
    i just don’t i don’t really know how
    accurate testosterone testing
    i think it’s accurate to a point but i
    think it can wildly fluctuate
    so we’ll move on and i’ll show you the
    crazy one well you can already see it
    it’s a 513
    exact same parameters exact same cipla
    test pharmaceutical grade test
    maybe my test is under dosed maybe i
    need to have a conversation with my test
    and see if it’s under dosed we’ve been
    through a lot
    but we need to have a talk
    i’m not gonna get mad
    but i need to know
    are you under dosed nope
    don’t lie to me i i may be disappointed
    if you’re under dose but i need to know
    the truth
    are you underdosed
    that’s what i thought
    thank you for being honest sippy nate
    like i said
    we’ve been through a lot i trust our
    relationship i’m glad we’re able to have
    this talk
    i feel like the next step is to talk to
    my doctor
    and we’re going to double your dose so
    that we can
    have good respectable testosterone
    numbers
    thank you for being honest with me so uh
    72 2020 dropped another four pounds
    uh free test is lower right back in the
    total test of a thousand
    which as you can see it’s pretty much
    where i’ve been at and that’s where i
    expect to be at when i get tested
    because i don’t around with blood
    tests
    i prepare for them i do exactly the
    thing i mean
    you know i want to do it i do it exactly
    so that i get the
    results that i should for the protocol
    that i’m on if i vary from that protocol
    and
    for any rhyme or reason i adjust it back
    to where it is so i can get consistent
    results
    sometimes some of us vary our protocols
    i think you know what i’m saying
    but for blood tests we don’t vary our
    protocols
    you guys know what i’m saying so 239
    estrogen
    that’s not sensitive my doctor messed up
    he didn’t order the sensitive e2
    so don’t freak out i am not growing
    breasts
    it’s all good shbg jumped down
    14.8 that’s below the reference range
    um you know i i could go to injecting
    once a week
    um but i kind of like my free test
    that’s the test your body uses i’m i’m
    kind of a big fan of it because i go to
    the gym five days a week
    free test as high as possible for right
    now uh
    hematocrit stayed right about the same
    triglycerides i mean look at this i mean
    200 196 140 140 140 125
    212 random random as hell doesn’t make
    sense
    hdl 35 37 4135 i can see that
    uh ldl it dropped you know and i can see
    some of these like
    you know 35 41 you know i get that
    that’s that’s a
    you know it fluctuates and you know
    these tests are not 100
    like balls accurate but you know an
    extra 300 points when you drop
    hcg or drop some hcg doesn’t make sense
    so let’s move on to these labs i took
    them on
    april 5th and i was checking the portal
    every day and it just didn’t say
    anything
    and then two days ago it told me they’d
    be available on 4 20.
    how ironic and i was looking at these
    results
    and i was like that’s 420s today by the
    way so
    shout out to you if you celebrate 420 i
    don’t personally partake
    doesn’t agree with me but uh so april
    5th i took this
    214 same weight uh
    free test we’re down what five points
    but look at my total test 513 that’s i
    mean
    half of what i’d expected to be less
    than half of what i’d expected to be
    and it just doesn’t make sense like how
    are you gonna go
    thousand eleven hundred thousand
    thousand
    five hundred i told my wife that she was
    like you kidding me like that doesn’t
    even make sense and
    like i said my test could be underdosed
    i doubt it because it’s
    pharmaceutical grade test
    imagine let’s say you were at 200 and
    you took this test right here
    and it puts you at like 400 and your
    doctor’s like
    why do you even feel bad like you know
    or well i mean i guess if you’re at a
    thousand it shows you
    500 i mean as long as you know you
    should be in a thousand but
    i mean 513 i mean this isn’t like this
    isn’t a home lab test this isn’t a
    finger prick test i mean this is going
    to lab court
    labcorp cute little spanish girl thick
    little spanish girl took my blood
    no issues told me i had great veins and
    winked at me everything was fantastic
    but i pulled the 5 13. so maybe
    i need to talk to my doctor maybe i need
    400 a week 350 400 a week what do you
    guys think should i ask him for that
    is that crazy estrogen 52.4 no arimidex
    i’m not taking any dim no calcium to
    glucorate right now just on straight
    test and hcg
    no issues once again shbg is low
    but i mean look at so shpg stayed the
    same for both of these tests
    free tests dropped um and
    i mean but not not not in relation so
    free tests in theory should be roughly
    half
    so if this was a thousand it should be
    roughly like 17
    we’re at 28. so i think this is messed
    up i think this is messed up
    um i think this is pretty accurate but
    it is interesting
    you know i mean 200 milligrams of test
    that was
    you know done without a doctor
    supervision
    72.7 estrogen same amount with
    added 500 ius of hcg and we’re only at
  3. so that’s interesting
    hematocrit 48.3 100 honest with you i
    donated blood probably about
    three weeks to a month before i uh got
    this blood test
    rbc cholesterol cholesterol see that’s
    pretty even steven
    but like i said triglycerides 125 212
    147
    random i mean i haven’t changed up my
    diet much i’m not doing anything
    different
    my hdl went up 39 i went up four points
    to 39
    and my ldl went up right right on the
    top of the border
    but my psa is good psas stayed
    consistent it jumped up 0.2
    that’s just margin of error so it’s just
    weird i mean
    you know i don’t know what to make of
    this i’m glad that i track it but
    the fact that it has so many variances
    in it it just it makes me wonder
    i mean for me i don’t really i don’t
    really give a i mean if it says
    1100 or 513 i mean i know
    exactly what protocol i’m doing i feel
    fine there’s no issues i’m just getting
    blood work to check for health markers
    but for the guys that are borderline or
    you know and they and they take this
    test and they’re plus 300 points because
    of a
    computer error or a calibration error i
    mean how many guys have fallen through
    through the cracks and you know been
    told by the doctor they’re low normal
    because of this test
    i honestly just don’t think that
    testosterone tests are that
    accurate now all these are liquid
    chromatography so i mean these are the
    most accurate tests i don’t know if this
    one is but
    all these all these testosterone ones
    are all liquid chromatography
    the most accurate one that you could
    possibly get and just to see a variance
    of you know
    what almost 900 points 900 points with
    the exact same protocol
    doesn’t make sense to me boys i don’t
    know i mean i’m not accusing labcorp of
    doing anything
    you know or anything like that
    i’m just saying i don’t think the shit’s
    that accurate
    i think it gives you a general idea but
    i mean what’s the general idea i’m
    between 1400 and 500
    like but you’re gonna have your ranges
    264 to 916
    and if you’re 265 you’re in
    range i personally
    think should be like under 400 like
    guaranteed trt
    like 600 500 like we got to look at your
    symptoms
    but i just don’t think this shit’s
    accurate enough i don’t know i don’t
    think it’s accurate enough to make a
    determination on someone’s health
    treatment
    of a hormone that is probably one of the
    most hormone
    most important hormones in their body
    what do you guys think
    you guys ever seen some crazy ass tests
    like this have you ever seen
    variances of 900 when you know you’ve
    done your exact same protocol
    let me know in the comments if you’re
    new i mean i hope you learned something
    a little something about how we look at
    different you know markers with our
    blood test
    and you know if you’ve never seen like a
    chart like this i mean it’s interesting
    just to see how a lot of this stuff is
    is you know changes over time and how
    some of them are just
    random as hell 125 212 147
    anyway i don’t want to rant too much
    guys i hope you found this interesting
    i hope you don’t look down on me because
    i only have 513 total test level now
    um i hope you still look at me as a man
    and not a little pansy boy with
    with weak total testosterone levels and
    weak free test levels and
    very high estrogen and yeah getting a
    little emotional
    anyway guys appreciate you guys being
