Does anybody know about how many mgs of Test the body naturally produces per day (in normal males between the age of 20-30ish? I think I heard somewhere about 7mg, but this seems a little low to me.     | ||

Nevermind, I found the answer just a second ago: "Testosterone is the most important representative of the male sex hormones collectively called androgens. Using cholesterol as a base, the male gonads (testes) produce between 4 and 10 mg of testosterone per day." | ||

So a bro with some crankin nuts may only produce 70mg a week. Huh? Interesting. ------------------ | ||

Yes, a max of 70mg per week at a man's physical peak. Therefore if you used 250mg of test per week extra, you are using over 3 times the max natural test production of a man in his early 20s. Why do you need so much more (like 500mg)? If you work hard then that should be more than enough. | ||

You get into the whole free testosterone v. actively bound or unbound testosterone issue or something. Never understood that stuff, I just know that there is more to it than the simple amount of test in your system. |
