00:00:00.000 Absolutely massive, if I may be so bold.
00:00:07.000 Greetings my esteemed Laddingtons. Today we'll have a look at my testosterone levels.
00:00:12.000 So, the first time I made one of these videos was back in 2015, at the very peak of my physical power.
00:00:20.000 Perhaps you were subscribed back then and you remember the force of nature, the absolute magnificent monstrosity.
00:00:29.000 If you weren't subscribed, you can simply go back.
00:00:32.000 You can look at the Eternal Glory playlist and you can look at my training videos from that time.
00:00:38.000 Now, back then I actually had 18.3 as a testosterone score.
00:00:45.000 Then, as we can see before us right now, I also did a test in 2017 and there I got 21 in score.
00:00:56.000 And then I did it in 2019, I got 21 again.
00:01:00.000 Then in 2020, I got 23.
00:01:05.000 And then this year, a few days ago, I got 20.
00:01:09.000 Now, I will say that every other value, every other value this year was better than in 2020, including SHBG.
00:01:19.000 Now, I won't go into detail about that test, but I wanted to show the testosterone and I wanted to explain why every other test was better this year than two years ago, except for testosterone.
00:01:32.000 So, everything was better in 2020 than in 2017 and 2019.
00:01:40.000 I credit my wife, I credit her good cooking.
00:01:44.000 She takes great care of me, so I credit her with my overall better health.
00:01:47.000 So then, the question remains, why was everything better except for the sacred testosterone?
00:01:54.000 Why was it a bit lower this year than two years ago?
00:01:57.000 And I will admit, it's simply because I haven't trained as hard as I did two years ago.
00:02:03.000 And in particular, may the spirit of John Paul Sigmar's son, may he forgive me, may his spirit forgive me, but I haven't done so many deadlifts this summer.
00:02:14.000 One thousand and five pounds.
00:02:24.000 Ever the showman. He really is incredible.
00:02:29.000 John Paul Sigmar's son.
00:02:31.000 Hallihas.
00:02:36.000 Hallihas.
00:02:38.000 Hallihas.
00:02:40.000 Hallihas.
00:02:41.000 Hallihas.
00:02:42.000 Hallihas.
00:02:43.000 Hallihas.
00:02:44.000 Hallihas
00:02:53.960 So that is the reason I would say that I simply I haven't trained as hard as I did two years ago
00:03:16.760 and this is also why I haven't made a training video this year yet. I will make one. I will see
00:03:21.780 if it is more Thai boxing or if it's more power lifting. I will see but that can explain it at least.
00:03:27.740 So to recap the testosterone was better then everything else was better now but
00:03:33.760 looking at everything I can only surmise that it has to do with not training as hard. I haven't
00:03:40.280 trained as hard for I haven't trained as hard this year because of a few different reasons. I will get
00:03:46.600 into it again soon and therefore I can expect my testosterone to increase. So that being said
00:03:53.760 I have now at 33 years of age I have a higher testosterone than I did at 25. So that feels
00:04:01.080 good and it also feels good that I can pinpoint the exact reason for that slight drop in testosterone.
00:04:07.440 Now again something that is interesting to point out. I said that the very peak of my physical
00:04:13.840 splendor was perhaps in 2015. I have higher testosterone now despite not training as hard
00:04:21.380 despite not being quite as muscular and despite not being quite as strong. Now of course I can
00:04:27.220 if I want to I can go back to that level of strength and muscularity. I just need to focus
00:04:34.060 completely on the gym. But now of course over the last five six years it's been a bit different
00:04:38.680 because I have trained more MMA and stuff like that. So the focus on the gym hasn't been as pure
00:04:44.520 as it was back in 2014-15-16. But yeah I hope this was insightful. I hope this inspires you to do
00:04:54.600 deadlifts. I think that is the main main thing that will increase my testosterone again. So good times
00:05:01.980 good times. I will actually go and do some deadlifts right now and I will have a training motivation
00:05:06.700 video of some sort incoming at least. So anyway thank you for watching. Thank you for your continued
00:05:13.060 support. XXO BOOM!
