In this video I tried to naturally boost my testosterone by using Andrew Huberman's Testosterone Boosting Protocols. I wanted to see if implement Huberman's protocols would make an impact on my next blood test, and increase my testosterone. Over the course of the 30 day challenge, I noticed some interesting improvements, and not just in my testosterone. Thankful to have such an amazing resource like the Huberman Lab podcast to draw practical and easily implementable protocols to improve my life.
Have a great week guys! Cheers.

it feels extremely great to see someone improve his life, proud of you, man
Respect your ability to face your weakness and improve. That's great to see, keep working.
I lost my wife to cancer and four months later I was dying. I could feel it. At 53, I am too old to put myself through that much suffering, but I found your story, so inspiring! I actually have a similar story, but without the burden you took on. They say “no pain, no gain” however, it’s more like you can either let life beat you down and keep you down, or you can find the joy in life, and it will raise you up, as if you have made yourself light as a feather I was headed for a heart attack. So my son got me to the gym and in two weeks I felt better. I would workout for 10 or 20 minutes a day while he did his 2 hour work out. I would go from machine to machine doing a few reps and raising the weights up as I went along lifting as heavy as I could because I enjoy lifting heavy. This kept my heart rate up around 110 to 130 and I broke a considerable sweat without actually running. Around this time, I got my first revelation. It told me that if I had the faith of a mustard seed, I could move mountains. If I wanted to be stronger and in better health, all I had to do was feel stronger, and in better health, and accept that as gods gift . By living as somebody who is already stronger and a better health, and by having faith that God would make it so, I did what a strong man with a nice physique would do. I ate my protein, I took my pre-workout, I took my creatine, I went to the gym with my son, and I lifted heavy , which is what I enjoy. But most of all, I did it regularly, and found the joy in it. By simply working out 20 minutes a day on average, I changed who I was and how I identify with myself. I am a guy who works out every day for 20 minutes. I am a guy who feels strong and has a good physique, even though I was 265. Four months later, I had lost 40 pounds and gain muscle at the same time. My benchpress went from 185 to 315. 15 years prior I had maxed out at 305 and all the strength just came right back quickly. However, my connective tissue couldn’t keep this up indefinitely, so I began transitioning from lifting heavy to lifting lighter. Now I only lift heavy on leg day, which helps my testosterone. I do close grip pull down, which makes my biceps fill out nicely without too much strain on the tendons. I do benchpress for general chest strength, and I lay down on my back and isolate my triceps with dumbbells, which works great. I goof off on the other machines, just popping around to them and seeing how many of them I can stack for multiple reps. Remember, it’s about the joy of it all. I want to look good, but I really just want to enjoy what I’m doing and enjoy experiencing life with people I like spending time with.
Good on you mate, life keeps going on and you can , as hard as it may seem as we get older find new love in life without losing what we shared with another. Best of luck with all you're aiming for and keep focusing on your health. You'll be surprised how you begin to feel and what other good comes your way without even searching for it.
What an inspirational story, thank you for sharing this.
Very inspiring ❤.. thanks 👍
respect sir
Great comment!
Sourounding yourself with people that are competitive improves your drive. The mamba mentality, as u mentioned in the video, also helped me to get back to the grind. It's really impressive what is possible, when u get your mind straight. Good content!
Nose breathing Sleep quality, routine Sunlight in the morning Competitive work Exercise but not to failure, 6 sets of 10 reps each, 120 sec rest, even if you lower the weight Zinc, mag, d3 Sunlight morning
sunlight = d3
@@tharun6656that's not enough, you must supplement it
all unnecessary and redundant. phone off when in pocket, no polyester clothing, clean water. that's all thats needed
@@shrimpson123 I love polyester, just keep it off your balls.
When I see someone exercising and struggling, I admire them even more. It takes a lot to push through that. I’m just proud of them for being in the game and persevering. We’ve ALL been there. My point being, just because you think something doesn’t mean it’s true, and the thing you should actually be concerned with is, not passers-by judging you but why your thoughts went there and why you believed it.
To me, he looks like he's trying to convey to everyone (including himself) how difficult it is, almost to garner sympathy or to put social behaviour above getting work done. Any negative thought during or around a set makes a good set basically impossible. It's a MINDSET THING.
@@TheBcoolGuy Yes he's a content creator not a healthy fitness advocate
I love that you said "KEEP GOING!" to yourself at the end, because that really is the secret......just never give up!!
Nothing better than seeing a brother improve. Keep up the good work.
I feel great that I stumbled upon this channel, with relatable and honest content. Your relentless pursuit of your goals despite fighting your inner demons: self-doubts, negative thoughts and anxiety about the future, had me rooting for you to win this personal challenge, thanks for motivating me!
It’s great that he won that basketball game, however, the outcome doesn’t matter as much as the transformation. This guy went through. All he did was decide to put in his effort every day no matter what, no matter how much it hurt. You cannot underestimate how radically and quickly that will change you. Even if he lost the game, he came out a winner. Storytime. There was a naïve kid who wanted to play college football, but he sucked. An average high school player, he insisted he would play Division 1 college football. so his brother takes him to meet the coach, and the coach takes one look at him and says yeah you’re not gonna have a chance you have to be over 300 pounds. Even worse, he didn’t know any better so he gains weight by eating potato chips and shows up to practice a fat tub of lard 100 pounds overweight and obviously totally sucks. The kid suck so bad he doesn’t even know how bad he sucks. However, the coach sees he has grown up with no father and takes pity on him and continues to let him practice with the team and hold the tackling dummy. The other men on the team make so much fun of him, and are so brutally cruel to him that he starts to get the picture., but being a naïve kid, he doesn’t know how much of a loser he really is, so he shows up to practice every day, and puts in consistent effort, and never gives up. After months, he drops 100 pounds of fat and adds 50 pounds of muscle. He finally starts to beat the slowest kid on the team in wind sprints. His positive attitude and willingness to take all the bullying without complaining begins to endear him to the other men, and they begin to accept him even though he still sucks. Then, one day, they are doing a brutal drill where you have to push the other guy out of a square. He goes up against the teams, best lineman, the guy who had bullied him from the start, and somehow gets lucky and beats him. So everybody is shocked, and they decide to do it again, and again. He beats this guy every time. Without even realizing it, simply by showing up, putting in the work, and behaving as a winner does, even though the outcome was always a loss, this young man had done the impossible. He not only made the team, but he became their best player. If you’ve ever watched Tebow, and not understood how the leagues worst quarterback could ever win an NFL game, this is the sort of thing that happened with this kid, Brandon. He not only became the best player, but he lead by example as all great leaders do throughout history. He became a team captain good friends with the team bully and inspired the team to go from bad to a winning streak, and become one of the top ranked teams in the league. He was drafted in round three in the NFL. His story is told the movie “Greater” on Netflix
I have felt inspired...great that i stumbled on this video..
Good job man. So proud of you.
It's quite shocking how few people know about book called "Secret Testosterone Nexus of Evolution"
It's quite shocking how many different videos you leave this same exact comment 😅👍
Love how honest and humble you are…keep training Brother!!!
This was a great video for this morning, awesome editing and storytelling
Well done again m8. Feel good editing all around. Keep it up you two.
I really appreciate this video. I think it examines something much deeper that it can be really hard for men in particular to get to where they want to be in life but we often dont have support systems for it.
Brennan is such a good brother letting Cam win and help him overcome the roadblocks in his mind.
Jesus this is cruel 🥲
Right? I thought the exact same. You see someone struggling that much and asking for your help, you'd have to be a really big douche to just cut their wings with your obvious superiority.
@@poweredman yes you have to teach him to not create false hopes.
Yeah that final basketball game is as staged as Brennan is bald
Bro, and I don’t know if the brother let him win, but if I was the brother, I would put in a consistent amount of effort, and if he started giving up, I would just rack up the score on him. If he started rallying, I would stay consistent. If he started beating me, same thing. It doesn’t do me any good to take risks, just to squeak out a victory. It doesn’t do him any good if I back off and let him win. He’s in a fight against himself, and he showed up for the competition, he’s going to get it. If he beats me, it’s because he successfully beat his own demons. However, you can be sure the next time out on the court. I’m gonna come back better than ever, and raise up the bar on the challenge. If he can manage to beat me again, he is truly worthy of that victory..
This was a great video man, keep going, never give up and keep inspiring people to do their best!
I appreciate it!
Great video!!! good job on the music placement as well!!
Haopy for you man, btw the video editing is getting better 🎉
you did a great job telling the story. glad I happened upon your channel. keep up the good work and thank you
That was an incredible journey, thank you so much for sharing! Documenting and producing this content must have been a trip on it’s own above all that.
Inspiring as hell , 💪 . Now this is the type of content one should watch
Man, this video was really inspiring! I like how you filmed it all ups and downs, keep it up! ❤
Please keep us updated on this!
This was wholesome. 6 reps of ten pull-ups is hefty. Siri can go to hell. We need more Hilary cameos. Proud of you my dude.
To be humble is a superpower and you got plenty! Thank you for the humble and good content
quote: "High fiber content is associated with low levels of free testosterone and increased HSBG levels. HSBG is a binding protein that inactivates free testosterone molecules." " high amounts of baked goods, especially bread and pastries. Dairy products and desserts were also associated with lower testosterone levels." But everyone says otherwise so up to each person to decide
You did a really good job editing this video!
wonderful video, mate. I can see that transformation within the 30 days. Great job. Keep at it and thanks for sharing all of this. Very important topics
Got more than I expected with this video, thanks for that and congrats on the journey.
The storytelling and editing are spectacular. Of course, congrats on your progress.
So DAMN proud watching this. Immediately subscribed once the video was over. Holy shit! Let's go!!!!
Inspiring, as always!
17:24 - I literally just said this to my therapist 2 hrs ago. I have the ability to push through intense pain and discomfort, but I can't motivate myself for the easy things. If I can treat the other "discomforts" in life like I do my body and train myself to push through, then I will be where I want to be. Thanks for making this video.
Great video! A tip regarding cold showers is to focus on breathing normally. If you stress through a cold shower many benefits are lost. When you struggle with the pull ups, two kinds of people walk past: those who are better than you, and most of them will cheer you on and be happy to see others improve; Those who know they should be doing the same but who are lazy, and it is within this category of people you might find some haters. People who inspire me the most in everyday life working out are those who just started, even though it's more difficult to keep going, often, than to get started and soon after give up. The mothers to teen kids and the men around 60 and older are such a great inspiration and I hope they continue living up to who they see themselves being in a few years
That’s awesome bro. I’m proud of you. Keep up the good work yo
Many people who give up or suffer during exercise focus on what they are feeling at that moment physically. That's why having goals are important. I can completely wreck myself on a few sets of deadlifts but while I lie down and rest because my muscles are screaming I am smiling because I know that what I just did pulls me closer to my goal and that feels amazing. That's why tracking progress also keeps my motivation high because I can look at the graphs showing me my progress.
This was my fav video to watch in a long long time. Good stuff man
Great video. Thanks for showing your perspective, loved it! Would love to see follow ups on this!
Brilliant Video!!! Keep it going man, love the truth in this video 💯
I love the videos, but I’m pretty sure you’ve confused what ‘percentiles’ mean. To be in the 90th percentile means that you’re in the top 10% (higher than 90% of individuals your age) not in the bottom 10%.
Yea I was getting confused 😅😅
Lol yes, he’s in the bottom 10% at 249 ng/dl which is probably hypogonadal. In the US, a Dr would put him on TRT.
@@BudoDave76 yea this sounds more accurate
Thank you! He's in the 10th percentile.
@@BudoDave76 Yeah, lol. He only increased it 24% which could very well just be inter or even intraday variance if he didn't take the test at the exact same time.
Good content man. Keep going!
Thank you for being so open about this! You don't know how much videos like this can help people that are in a similar situation!
@@FormulationFactoryUS Thanks for the offer, but I'm in no need :)
I can completely relate myself to the concept of a lack of motivation after achieving your short-term goal and this video surely helped me how to overcome that. many thanks!!
8:33 When effort feels good, life just gets better! Damn!🙌🏻
Thanks A lot for this video and been so humble 🙌
Really appreciate how vulnerable he was willing to be in this video. That takes a lot of strength of character 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
i love these experiments
You don't know I am so happy I discovered your channel, am gonna watch every fkkin video of you..man you can never be short of testosterones..u boosted me just by two videos.. thanks to Mr. Andrew and a big big thanks to you.. from just following the way to my evolution..am gonna make triple x change to it ..I bow down to you 😭🙏🏼
Great video, I’m glad you cared enough to do something….I’ve never seen your channel before but I’m going through almost the exact same thing. I’m proud of you homie
Hell yeah brother! Dude was so excited to keep going
That was so inspirational. Thank you for sharing.
Great video! Would love to see see a follow up to this.
Great story line, story telling and amazing videi editing
So proud of you man!
I love this message thankyou for the encouragement
Dude just lift and sleep well. Easy
Yup sleep well lift well and compete and your T will be theough the roof
This video gave me so much motivation to just keep going thank you
That’s a fine job; story telling wise! Congrats on the edit!
Thanks for inspiring man! This video was really helpful. You're a true fighter.
Amazing video, Thanks for sharing
I know it's all about story telling, and probably some facts might have been twitched to fit the narrative, but this video made me feel good for the guy. I hope not only you keep in track, but that you also be the inspiration for many others.
Thank you I needed this❤
this video is so well made it makes me happy
stay strong and dont fall of the wagon. Keep working out.
KZhead algo failed at recommending me this video and I watch Huberman! Sucks I had to go to your channel to see the video!
Well done buddy, well done. Proud to see your success.
I opened this video thinking it will be the next debunking and downgrading on the words of Huberman. Boy was i wrong. This whole video was like a life experience and i resonated with every second of it. I believe most guys will see themselves in your initial comfort and then in your much needed struggle with life and growth. Earned a like and a subscribe for the good work bro, it makes me very happy to see open-minded people who are not afraid to show weakness and do not succumb to their innter voices of desperation but overcome them.
Beautiful video ❤ more power to you
Dude, I’m not a man but I am so happy for you! Seeing you better you self it’s so encouraging. I hope you kept up with it.
Boss which supplements you taking while 30 days challenge can you share details of there ?
Great great job! I couldn’t click away if I wanted to … had me from the first line. Even had Sandra watch! Love ur stuff guys!
You are a success, you have inspired me to pick up my game. You realism got to me, Thank you
Happy for you brother!
You’d get better results training heavier with basic movements like the barbell squat, deadlift, bench press, overhead press and keep the pull ups. Rather than use the band for pull ups do rest pause sets. If you can do a set of say 10 at once do a set of 5 and rest, then do another set of 5. Repeat for multiple rounds. Great way to get more reps with the same load with any movement and it kicks you ass. Also dump that AG1 or ANY super greens, super reds bull shit right in the garbage. Eat a balanced diet making sure to get plenty of protein and actual fruits and vegetables. If you’re going to use supplements use ones that actually help like extra magnesium, zinc, and combination vitamin D3 with vitamin K2 in it. Another great thing is fish oil. I like Barlean’s high potency. It comes in different flavors like key lime and you don’t taste any fish at all. It has tons of DHA and EPA which are fatty acids that are great for your immune system along with your heart and brain.
Yo how much fishoil do you take? Tablespoon?
Literally just deadlift heavy not even a lot, just a few heavy reps once a week. Swear to God, increases my libido, blood flow through the body is insane, literally everything is better. Ripping heavy weight off the ground just makes me feel like man.
Proud of you man
Good job man, keep going.
Your living room is decorated so nicely
Shut up, Siri! Haha! That was golden and everything about this video was relatable.
One of the greatest videos I’ve ever seen ❤
Great share, Brother ! Take It, It Blelong's To You !
This guys so good at editing
Doing what you have to do despite not feeling like doing so by Day 20 was already a testament of your dedication. This is a huge turning point in your life. Always remember it as a special day in your life and how you overcame it despite your brain and body telling you to stop. Well done to you!
Feels like watching something made by Marvel, but better. The music the narration the editing❤❤ u guys r awesome 👏
Keep pushing yourself even when "things get hard ." Nice, i see what you did there
man, I do the exact same thing. whenever i ever need motivation...I bring up an old Kobe interview or video. and it always works. 😂
Great video mate
Great video
Dude this was like watching Garfield the cat finding a new will to live- but for real this was great. Keep going bro!
very good video. actually captulated the secret to a fulfilling life in 18 mins. bravo.
Please keep this going
And damn very well put together
Great job. Other things that help are natural sunlight during the day, and total darkness at night when sleeping. Having a consistent sleep schedule. Eat good fats and lower meat and refined carbs consumption.
Deep. Great video 👍.
Great video,I have almost 30 years old.Thank you for the inspiration.
Discipline is much better than motivation but both is even better
My favorite part was the day where you sat around til about 11, but still got up and got it done. It was after that day that you began to get competitive with the challenge. You also went and started looking for inspiration/advice from KB which was a sign of you putting in the mental work of how to overcome your challenge. It's all about small steps of growth like that building up overtime.
I was in your shoes a little while ago, and I totally feel for you. One thing that I found during my research was that chopping wood and splitting logs raises testosterone levels, granted it takes time, but after doing that for several weeks, consistently for 45minutes a day I started to feel better and more motivated. I didn't take a blood test to see it scientifically, but I can say for certain that I felt a lot better
45 minutes? I don’t think it’s the chopping of wood but just the fact that you’re doing a super hard workout multiple times a week
@@Iamwrongbut ye prolly,i also saw that once and thought its just the fact that the men who chop wood first of all doit cause they have to, sweat their ass off with a decent workout and also feel the success and reward because their struggle gets rewarded with warmth etc. no wonder that theres a correlation. hell maybe even a causation
dudee, i started choping wood like a month ago for like 30 minutes a day and i also feel a general improvement in motivation. There's probably something to this that works.
Getting outdoors and doing a hard, rewarding workout is a great thing to do.
Any workout longer than 40 minutes switches something in our bodies that we become better :)
