1607: How to Optimize Your Hormones with Dr. Rand McClain

[@Flexapr]

I flew down for Rand McClain’s TRT consultation in May 2016. I learned all I could from him there, via Skype, and Only Now @ 50yo in 2021 have decided to commit to TRT. Dr. Rand is 6 years older than me and admits he has used AAS and now TRT for over 30 years. Great 👍🏻 guru.

[@v.c9188]

Started trt at age 40 now going on 3 years , looking back it was the best choice I ever made . Great video doc 👌

Have you found that TRT makes you sweat more and your body now runs at a higher temperature than before?

[@bryanole27]

As a 40 year old man that started TRT about 1 month ago, this was such a great listen. Thanks for bringing top content and educating.

I started taking testosterone enanthate, about 3 weeks ago, I slept better at my very first injection, of 500mgs , I'm 52 years old, I started getting wood like when I was 18yo, I've been doing 150mgs 2 times a week, I'm gonna get some blood work done, to check, my level's, my advice, is get your blood work done first.

[@imemailingmybrother]

TRT changed my life for the better. Definitely worth looking into

[@imemailingmybrother]

@@trembling3674 I decided to try TRT after a couple years of not knowing why I was depressed, not able to keep the muscle I was building, problems with ED, things like that. I watched vids from more plates more dates, Greg D, and another TRT optimization channel, and after getting tested at 300 and even lower, it was an easy decision. I didn't really try a lot to increase my levels naturally because it wasn't as practical for me to adjust my diet etc as some other people might be able to, so it was really my only option. I'm in my late 30s, but I was around 185 lbs 5'10 at 15% bf. After 6 months on, I'm 192 lbs at 14% bf (roughly of course). All of my depression and ED is gone now, and I feel great. I'm on 160mg /wk and hcg, without an AI.

[@imemailingmybrother]

@@trembling3674 I will be praying for you man. I hope you find a way to get released from your alcoholism

[@MrGflan]

I’m dealing with all you are talking about fellas. I am also dieting and in a calorie deficit and very lean now which is good, but my testosterone is tanked and I’m depressed also. I just don’t know if it’s just from the diet, but I turn 40 next month so I don’t think it’s just the diet. It makes me wonder if I should just suffer with this and stay lean or gain weight and help increase the test. I think I may explore this route since it really feels like it’s my last resort.

[@MrGflan]

@@trembling3674 I actually take 10,000 iu of D3 and K2 each day, lift 5 days per week (perhaps a little too long of a workout could trigger lower T from high cortisol), don’t get much sun because I work from home, which is why I take D. I think being in calorie restriction as a natural bodybuilder can do it for sure. I’m now trying tongat Ali and fedogia so I will let you know how that combo goes. I also get 8 hours of sleep mostly every night. So it could be an aging thing too

[@CaptainStottlemeier]

@@MrGflan If you workout too much your testosterone levels go down and that is not good. Calorie restriction is part of the problem too. Lack of omega 3 can leave you mentally depleted too. Natural testosterone boosters can help too before going down TRT road.

MP has become a vital part of daily routine as well. the frequent uploads keep me sane and I learn a fair amount each episode. It is rare a podcast is both informative and comedic, so I can firmly say MP is the best podcast in general. The guys have seriously funny chemistry and each one of them offers something different for listeners. Also, I appreciate Justin for coaching those young football players. I only wish my high school football coaches brought the heavy metal lifestyle to my weight room. Thanks for all you do guys

[@jason1040us]

Dr. Rand is AWESOME and thanks for this EPIC podcast fellas! I recently heard about a book titled "Estrogeneration" which has discovered how much estrogen we are being poisoned by in our water supply and ultra processed food. Low T is an epidemic for men, young and old. Sure there are factors we can control but there are factors out of our control. We live in a stressful world with toxic environments. I think TRT is becoming the only way a man can get back to having healthy productive T levels. 🙏

[@Future_looksbright]

I did not expect to see these guys together!! I’ve watched them both separately… this is awesome

[@CaptainStottlemeier]

I think most people need to be on low hormone therapy as they get older for quality of life. First try all natural ways, healthy eating , adepuate sleep, exercise and natural testosterone supplements to see if it helps. Most people eat s#@$, hardly move, smoke w@@# etc and expect miracles. Working in the retail supplement business I have encountered folks on Trt and folks who go naturally. If natural ways don't do it I think Trt is definitely worth doing. While I myself prefer natural ways and a healthy lifestyle I have not heard of any real issues with TRT. I know customers who do it and they live life to the full. It is a game changer. Doctors are still reticient to prescribe it I guess due to medical studies. I think going foward almost everyone will be on hormone support of some sort as it allows people to live a better quality life. The doctor I believe is really telling it like it is. I think we have to change our perception on hormone therapy. A quality of life where you can function with gusto rather than straggling along in your later years is a better way to live.

The podcast is incredible I listen every day at work. I'm currently 40 years old and have low T, it's been low for a long time. Last I checked it was 275, and I was experiencing ED. I did my research and started several supplements. I'm currently taking 10,000 iu vitamin D3, 50 mg zinc, 400 mg DIM, 1500 mg D aspartic acid, 100mg DHEA, 6 mg boron, 275mg beta ecdysterone, 200 mg Q10. I've seen a lot of progress in the gym, my deadlift is 405, squat is 280 and bench press is 215. I'm 5'7" 275 lbs struggling with weight loss and my T numbers are still low. Any advice for what I can do, in trying to avoid TRT as long as possible. My T was low in my 20's as well and I have some gyno.

And try to inject more often than they recommend, instead of a huge amount once every 2 weeks you will probably have much better results having lower doses every 3-4 days.

TRT or juicing??? TRT is a medical regime of hormone therapy for a clinically diagnosed endocrine problem that is impacting negatively on your life. The problem is many like yourself appear a little confused about what TRT actually is and think it's something you just wake up one day and decide to do because you feel a bit shit. Many people take testosterone for reasons that are not legitimate TRT but they label it as TRT. Low testosterone is hugely detrimental to a man's health.

Once you start introducing Testosterone endogenously for long periods of time, your body stops natural production. So for instance, if you lose your job and health insurance and lose the funds to continue use of TRT you go down a very shitty road where you can no longer get your TRT treatments and you can no longer produce it yourself.

This information is great and all, but this won't help if your doctor simple wont care about the fact that your Test is low most of the time from a sexual function aspect. I am patient of one of the best endocrinologists in the country since i became medically dependant on TRT. Not a single time did i have any decent sexual desire, my serum test is usually between 800 and 450 ng/dl with SHBG 32 nmol/l during the intervall and he says there is something wrong with me that i can barely function in a reproductive aspect. I cant get any HCG "because it only matters for getting your wife pregnant" even though there are countless anecdotes that small HCG in addition to TRT gets rid of libido issues. Before TRT I was horny AF like most of the time except when i was too stressed for some days. Any advice? I even provided studies and articles to confirm what I am saying, but that gets blatantly ignored.
