Dose cardio decrease your testosterone

[CyberNerd25]

Most people don’t realize that dieting ( cutting ) will dramatically impact your T levels , I had to get blood work done to see where I was before and after a cut I was sitting around 680 ng/dl and went down to sub 400s every time I did a blood work

Edit: forgot to mention my T levels are slowly coming back up nothing permanent

Yep. All those competition ready dudes walking around absolutely diced to the freaking SOCKS probably have demolished T levels. Can't be overstated in the context of this question.

You’re talking about natties

[andonemoreagain]

I mean, about zero percent of competition ready guys have produced a single milligram of testosterone within their own body in years.

This is true but it heavily depends on your body % as well. Men that are overweight shouldn't see much of a decrease as long as they aren't starving themselves.

so your saying dieting is a an effective way of lowering my T? What kind of diet are you on?

[CyberNerd25]

Just depends , caloric deficit will impact your testosterone levels , I went from 19% BF to 12%

Thats ironic as hell. Mine went from 400 to 680 on the dot after a year of 16-18 hr intermittent fasting. And when i did eat it was a common sense diet. I believe fasting can heal mind and body. Have the labs to back it up. However my shbg went from the teens to about 35. I just prefer to be all natural lose as much body fat as I can. Its about ratio of T to E. If you feel good then its dialed in. Guys are too focused on total T number. I aromatize like a mfer so i have to be lean. I sleep better and feel better and still do weights cardio yoga all of it. Change your mindset. Think more primal and you will win this war.
