Great vid! Already doing all these for a year now and at 54 I'm stronger then I have ever been. (still working on the body fat - at 25%ish but dropping)

Get vitamin k in your vitamin d supplement. Not only does it improve vitamin d absorption, the excess puts some color back in your hair if you're starting to turn grey.
Good points but I had the same measured Testosterone levels when shredded and naturally (not clean) bulked. I suppose your point is the average not the individual. On the fat% I agree completely I stay between 15-18% body fat when not bulking for over 40 years. One tip your monotone voice is hard to listen to for extended periods I would train your voice to have some variance in pitch advice not criticism.
So, my GP, who is a body builder himself, told me to stop taking ashwaganda cos he said it stunts test - has anyone heard of this?? Everything I’ve seen says the complete opposite.
IN MY EXPERIENCE, my T doubled from 300 to 600 when I stopped drinking water from soft plastic water bottles (e.g. Evian). In only two months, and I made no other lifestyle changes. YMMV
@@rikwilkinson7977 I drank from soft plastic bottles for 30 years, thinking it was safer than tap water. It's only been the last few years that I noticed I had all the subjective symptoms of low T, despite my excellent diet and exercise routine. I got it tested, and tried different things - e.g. eating more red meat. No effect. I was starting to seek out trt, because I wasn't about to spend the rest of my life not feeling like a "real man". Then I read somewhere about the estrogen-enhancing enzyme disrupting effects of soft squeezable plastic bottles. and made the change. Big difference. BIG difference. And the blood tests backed it up. Literally doubled my T in two months. Note: It's just the soft plastic bottles. Now I drink spring water from the big 5 gallon hard plastic jugs. Apparently, the bad stuff doesn't leach into the water the way soft plastic does. They seem good enough for me, but I might switch to glass bottles at some point.
Good information, like most of your post. Most of these are good, best practices, but are not magic. For example doing hard squats will raise your testosterone, but only for a short period. No way you can say these things could make your test double, like going from 350 to 700 for an average for the whole day. The only thing that can truly say that, is HRT.
Honest question, not trying to harp on this guy or influencers in general, but is the common downward tonal inflection at the end of every statement an accent or something? Do you know what I mean? Like someone is slowing the recording after every sentence. What is that?
I remember I had some zinc and my stomach hurt for around a couple hours I think supplements aren't needed unless you're deficient having a healthy diet makes sure that noone needs supplements
@5:47 I have a Vitamin D supplement where 1 tablet is 400IU and the bottle says that is 200% of NRV. Surely I'm not expected to take 12 of them a day to get 5000IU?!
5000 is over the daily required intake and taking that amount over time will lead to a buildup of excess in your body causing your calcium levels to go too high.
The RDA for Vitamin D was developed years ago to avoid rickets. I take 10,000 IU daily and feel great. You should make sure you get enough K2 along with D3 which helps calcium get to your bones. By the way, 30 minutes in the mid-day summer sun can give you 20,000 IU of D. Do your research.
Dig a little deeper, Please. The FDA has recommended ONLY 200IU of Vitamin D daily for over 20 Years! That number is way too low, they damn well know that too. Vitamin D3 is an absolutely amazing vitamin and its benefits are off the charts. There are many peer reviewed studies that show 200IU is too low. Plus it should be taken with Magnesium. You really don’t have to do much research to prove what I’m saying is true. I’ll not recommend how much, look for yourself, but 200 isn’t doing much. ( Almost like they want us sick, crazy findings )
First question, what type of mag are you taking? What you said doesn’t make sense at all. If you know the different types out there you wouldn’t have said what you said.
Anybody have a good sleep supplement to recommend? I take magnesium, L Theanine, Apigen, NyQuil, and sometimes Melatonin or Tart Cherry. These all seem to help me get to sleep but I often wake up after 4-6 hours. Occasionally I get around but it's rare. I'm a long haul trucker right now and it's tough to get this key part of the regimen right.
Ashwaganda helped me... ashwaganda and magnesium one hour before bedtime. I was sleeping 5-6 hours, after ashwaganda and magnesium I can sleep 8 hours easy
If you go directly from driving to trying to sleep that could be the issue. What sleep experts usually say is --> no electrical devices in the bedroom(TV's etc.), avoid blue light(TV, smartphone etc.) a couple of house before going to bed. Ventilate your bedroom before going to bed, a cold bedroom is the best. I take --> Melatonin 2 hours before going to bed everynight - it helps you fall asleep faster, also if you tend to wake up during the night. There's different kinds of Magnesium(like 11) Magnesium Glycinate is the one you want for better sleep, it helps relaxing your muscles if they are tense. I imagine sitting in the same position for several hours every day could cause some issues aswell, so you might want to look into some stretching + breathing exercises to make your system relax and wind down, maybe even Yoga 😉Phd. Andy Galpin has some solid tips if you struggle a lot, like rewiring your brain to get a good sleep etc. I hope some of this helps, I have personally struggled a lot with my sleep but it's better now. GL👍
I've been using a capsule made by CBRx called Blackout. It is 50mg Full-Spectrum CBD, 5mg CBN, and magnesium. If I don't sleep for a full 8 hours, I still lay quietly in bed for 8 hours. When I stay in bed, I usually drift back to sleep. Even if I don't fall back to sleep the difference between sleeping 6 hours, then getting up vs. sleeping 6 hours and staying in bed for another two hours in quite noticeable. Another thing to do is wear a sleep mask.
@@Real-B777 Dude, you'll be hard pressed to find someone that is more active than me. I bike 20km in total to and from work everyday Monday to Friday plus I workout 2 hours Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Be careful with Zinc supplementation. Too much and you get cramps and puking.
I remember I had some zinc and my stomach hurt for around a couple hours I think supplements aren't needed unless you're deficient having a healthy diet makes sure that noone needs supplements
It got me if I took it on an empty stomach.
You need to take copper with zinc.
Yes, these doses he recommends are over the top and not needed and could even be harmful in the longterm.
According to researcher Rhonda Patrick, you could easily triple or quadruple the magnesium amount that you are recommending here.
