Yo, anyone had their T levels checked out?

2018-10-13 20:28:13 UTC  

I got a few courses I want to take (even though I have my BS already) and get more skilled in my craft.

2018-10-13 20:28:18 UTC  

@machtyn That's what I'm doing right now, focusing on school and getting into my career

2018-10-13 20:28:32 UTC  

brb

2018-10-13 20:28:37 UTC  

@hel I am conducting a water fast and after I eat for 2 weeks on the keto regiment I'm getting mine checked (next month or so).

2018-10-13 20:28:44 UTC  

@KenneticEnergy Yeah boy!

2018-10-13 20:29:08 UTC  

@hel T levels go down naturally as we age, but I dont think its a concern unless you start having abnormal symptoms.. def something to talk to your doc about

2018-10-13 20:29:09 UTC  

IF+Keto is the boss of cutting

2018-10-13 20:29:20 UTC  

Mine is around 350ng/dL

2018-10-13 20:29:29 UTC  

The doctor said it's fine, but I'unno

2018-10-13 20:29:39 UTC  

@hel Yes! Except, I am going on prolonged fast. The longest I went was 4 days so I know I got this.

2018-10-13 20:29:52 UTC  

Buddha mode

2018-10-13 20:30:02 UTC  

@hel That's low.

2018-10-13 20:30:22 UTC  

You want 800 ng/dl

2018-10-13 20:30:30 UTC  

300-1100 ng/dl is the range I believe

2018-10-13 20:30:38 UTC  

I wonder if NoFap has anything to do with it

2018-10-13 20:30:40 UTC  

Technically 350 is "normal" but it's low.

2018-10-13 20:30:52 UTC  

I mean, I'm not an expert on T levels but I'd trust the doc if he says you're okay

2018-10-13 20:31:01 UTC  

Naw, sleep/cortisol/caffeine/food/lifting

2018-10-13 20:31:20 UTC  

@KenneticEnergy Are activist doctors a thing?

2018-10-13 20:31:26 UTC  

@Deleted User I don't remember exactly when I noticed PC culture but 1992 seems about right.

2018-10-13 20:31:30 UTC  

@KenneticEnergy Don't trust doctors 😄 "High carb low fat is healthy!" No, thanks.

2018-10-13 20:31:34 UTC  

Like activist judges or something.

2018-10-13 20:31:44 UTC  

I graduated high school in '89 and worked in the trades

2018-10-13 20:31:46 UTC  

@The Tradesman Oh definitely, but physiologically no one man is going to have the same T levels

2018-10-13 20:31:52 UTC  

@KenneticEnergy Or... most doctors, at least.

2018-10-13 20:31:55 UTC  

Actually, my doc advocates the keto+if. @machtyn

2018-10-13 20:32:00 UTC  

so I did not have much exposure to the office enviornment

2018-10-13 20:32:10 UTC  

@machtyn Actually you do need glucose and carbs to live mate lol

2018-10-13 20:32:34 UTC  

Just don't go crazy and eat like mcdonalds 24-7, moderation is the key

2018-10-13 20:32:36 UTC  

anyway I have to run off for a bit. BBL.

2018-10-13 20:32:38 UTC  

@KenneticEnergy Yes, you do. Your body converts it from fat to run the brain.

2018-10-13 20:32:45 UTC  

goodbye @Lilu

2018-10-13 20:33:09 UTC  

You don't need to EAT carbs/sugars.

2018-10-13 20:33:11 UTC  

It also depends on how active you are too, nutrition is highly personable tbh

2018-10-13 20:33:18 UTC  

Yes!

2018-10-13 20:33:31 UTC  

Agreed. I personally eat a little brown rice when I go sparring.

2018-10-13 20:33:45 UTC  

I wanna rewatch Fight Club one of these days

2018-10-13 20:33:45 UTC  

@machtyn Yes you do, to allow the basic metabolic functions of your body to take place. You need carbs and glucose. This is fact

2018-10-13 20:33:50 UTC  

When I lift without brown rice, I am flat in performance but I get a better physical response.

2018-10-13 20:34:00 UTC  

@KenneticEnergy No, you do not.
