What Is The Optimal T Level?
Testosterone is without a doubt the most important hormone in a man’s body. It make’s a man happy, motivated, strong, virile, and basically much more of a man.
And it comes not as a surprise that one of the most commonly asked questions I’ve received so far is this:
What is the optimal testosterone level for my age?
We’re going to find out in today’s video.
Labs give different reference range, experts give all sorts of numbers, studies have come to different conclusions, and I have my own opinions based on personal experiences and the emails that I’ve been getting for the past 6 months.
However the most common reference ranges for average testosterone level seems to fall between the numbers of 250-1200 ng/dl.
And on top of that the common mantra seems to be that testosterone levels will start to decline at around the age of 30 due to “normal aging process”.
However that’s bull in my opinion. Older men are simply having lower testosterone levels because they become sedentary, they stop having s-x, and they “settle down”.
I base this claim on the following facts:
In rural populations, older men have just as much testosterone as the younger guys do. (16)
In several studies, research have found out that there’s a lot of guys who are 70+ years old but still have testosterone levels of a 17 year old.
Several respected doctors and scientists won’t buy the claim either. (17)
That’s why I believe that the real reason why testosterone levels usually start to decline at the age of 30 is the fact that men around that age are often sedentary, don’t have s-x, settle down, can’t sleep as well as younger guys, and start taking prescription medications or trt testosterone replacement therapy for various “illnesses”…
…Thus, in this video you’re not going to see any charts about what would be the optimal level for certain age, as I simply believe that whether you’re an old man or a young man, you should aim for the same levels.
And based on the emails that I’ve gotten, my 10-years of research, and personal experience, I’ve put up my own ideas for optimal testosterone levels:
0-400 ng/dl – This is the area that I personally see as the zone of “low testosterone”. It’s because most of the men who have all the classic signs and symptoms of low testosterone, often fall into this range
(some younger guys have had the symptoms even at close to 500 ng/ dl). This is the range where men are typically in their doctor's office getting testosterone replacement therapy prescriptions for trt which is also known as hormone replacement therapy. This area typically shows a lot of erectile dysfunction.
500-700 ng/dl – This is the area that I see as “normal testosterone”. It’s a range where there’s normally no symptoms or signs of low testosterone present, and everything should function effortlessly.
700-1,000 ng/dl – This is what I’d like to call high testosterone in the modern standards (our ancestors probably had double or even triple this amount). It’s a point where missing a morning wood is a rare event, and building muscle is a breeze.
1,000+ ng/dl – This is the line of optimal for me. Everything above this point is pretty awesome, and if you’re past the 1,000 ng/dl point naturally, I can only congratulate you for a job well done. However, it’s a sad fact that most men in the modern world of processed foods, chemical estrogen mimics, and high obesity rates will never see these numbers.
So that’s how I feel. The above is only my personal view of the optimal levels, and doctors or health care professional may disagree, I don’t care. This is simply what I’ve found to be the most accurate view of the situation so far.
NOTE: That’s only the optimal for total testosterone. Other factors that play their parts are the amount of free testosterone, total estrogen, free estrogen, DHT, prolactin, cortisol, etc.
