Is low androgen receptor activity preventing you from maximizing the benefits of testosterone?

By Mike Mahler

There are numerous clips on YouTube promulgated by self-proclaimed experts conveying the importance of androgen receptors. These self-professed experts state or reiterate that without adequate androgen receptor activity, the amount of testosterone you produce is worthless as it will not be utilized. Of course, like many things you see on YouTube, this is at best an oversimplification and more precisely …

I have been using the 3×5-10 program and I am loving it! How long can I stay on the program? 

By Mike Mahler

I am glad the 3×5-10 program is working well for you and you can stay on the program indefinitely but at the very least stick with it for twelve weeks. Far too many believe that you need to change programs often such as every six weeks to keep your body guessing and to sustain progress, but in …

My testosterone levels are ideal but I still feel terrible

By Mike Mahler

My total testosterone is 750 ng/dl and my free testosterone is 22 pg/ml on a reference range of 8-25 pg/ml. Even though my numbers are considered optimal my sex drive and motivation are still low. I definitely don’t feel like I have high testosterone levels! Please advise  Being in the reference range even the high …

Can you recommend a training program that covers strength, muscle building, and cardio? 

By Mike Mahler

I sure can as it just so happens that what I am doing right now covers all the bases you want addressed. I do two full-body strength training sessions per week with a focus on compound moves and two interval training sessions per week on an elliptical machine. I also get in at least 10,000 …

To improve your gut health you need to support your microbiome

By Mike Mahler

A healthy gut is essential for comprehensive health and hormone optimization. Gut health is so paramount for hormone optimization that I devoted an entire section of my hormone optimization lecture series to it many years ago. If you have deleterious gut health you can forget about absorbing maximum nutrition and likely not even adequate nutrition …

Are there any fat-burning supplements you recommend?

By Mike Mahler

Most fat-burning supplements on the market are stimulant-based, thus they work by increasing the neurotransmitter/hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine. Norepinephrine and epinephrine are catecholamines, secreted by the adrenals, which trigger the “fight or flight” response (also known as an adrenaline rush) providing an energy and strength boost by way of the central nervous system for 2-15 minutes. …

Have you become desensitized to your testosterone levels?

By Mike Mahler

I have been on TRT for over a year and don’t feel the benefits that I used to when I started. Do I need to increase the dosage?  Leading hormone optimization expert, Dr. Mark Gordon conveyed on an episode of the LLA podcast many years ago that if you only get on testosterone replacement therapy …

By Mike Mahler

My total testosterone levels are pretty high at 775ng/dl but my free testosterone is very low at only 8 pg/ml. What can I do to increase free testosterone levels? First, if you engage in intense training and fail to take a few days off to rest before getting your blood drawn, you may have low …

What do you think of Gary Brecka and his 10x Health Wellness Protocol? 

By Mike Mahler

I have reviewed his information and watched several of his interviews. Gary Brecka is a human biologist and biohacker (for the record I hate the term biohacker) and is most famous for turning UFC President Dana White’s health around. Dana has had excellent results with his advice and is an avid advocate of his system. …

High estrogen and fat loss, is pine pollen effective? Liver king nonsense

By Mike Mahler

My estradiol level is 69 pg/ml and I am finding it difficult to lose body fat. Is this connected to the high estradiol levels?  It’s definitely a factor for why you’re having a hard time losing body fat as the ideal range for estradiol is around 20-30 pg/ml for most. Of course, it really depends …

Train with optimal testosterone levels to maximize progress

By Mike Mahler

While many still propagate the myth of workouts that increase testosterone and growth hormone, the reality is whatever increase you derive in anabolic hormones from training is short-lived. An increase in testosterone for example for thirty minutes to an hour after training is not long enough to have a profound impact on low testosterone levels. …

LLA Ep #302: TRT, Psilocybin, Adderall, & Only Fans in The Age of Easy Access

The internet is becoming a wild place.

However, not in today’s digital world, which is slowly becoming the wild wild west. Imagine …

Is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) for life?

By Mike Mahler

One of the primary reservations many men have to initiate a testosterone replacement therapy protocol is fear of having to be on TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) for the rest of their lives.  I have heard doctors who are completely clueless about hormone optimization reinforce these fears by stating that starting TRT is a big decision …

Why fat burners cause more harm than benefit

By Mike Mahler

Most fat-burning supplements on the market are stimulant-based, thus they work by increasing the neurotransmitter/hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine. Norepinephrine and epinephrine are catecholamines, secreted by the adrenals, which trigger the “fight or flight” response (also known as an adrenaline rush) providing an energy and strength boost by way of the central nervous system for 2-15 minutes. …

If Bulbine Natalensis is so effective, how come it’s not in more products? 

By Mike Mahler

First, you’re being presumptuous in assuming the vast majority of supplement companies care about designing effective products. The reality is the preponderance of supplement companies care foremost about maximum profit and tend to put 90% of funds into marketing and only 10% if even that into product development. Whether a product works or not is …

The ASTB Origin story! The one that actually works

By Mike Mahler

The first herb I ever tried that resulted in a large increase in testosterone was the cornerstone ingredient in ASTB the one and only Bulbine Natalensis. I learned about Bulbine from my friend Anthony Roberts (Not to be confused with Anthony Robbins!). Anthony has written books about anabolics and is very well-researched in ergogenic aids …

Blood tests for comprehensive hormone optimization

By Mike Mahler

Last time I covered recommended tests to acquire before engaging in any testosterone-boosting protocol. As important as testosterone is, it is one of many hormones that need to be addressed for comprehensive hormone optimization. Here are the other important hormones to test.   Pregnenolone is a master control hormone manufactured by the adrenal gland and …

Recommended tests before testosterone boosting protocols

By Mike Mahler

Unlike other supplement companies that sell natural testosterone boosters and estrogen control supplements, I actually encourage my customers to get before and after blood work, as I know my products in contrast to most of my competitors actually work. This is why we have so many testimonials for ASTB where customers detail the significant improvements …

What do you think of Andrew Huberman’s hormone optimization information?

By Mike Mahler

From what I have seen his understanding of hormone optimization is very antiquated, to say the least. While he may be an expert on Neuroscience, I don’t know enough to know either way, he is definitely not an expert on what is viable for hormone optimization a field I have been studying since 2005. For …

Excessive estrogen levels are a problem for men

By Mike Mahler

The hormone optimization world is similar to any other world. There are many dissenting opinions and always some who purposely take contrarian views to whatever the current narrative is. When I first got interested in hormone optimization around 2005, I remember going to an anti-aging doctor in Santa Monica, CA who specifically stated the goal …

How does fish oil compare to Restorezyme for reducing excess inflammation? 

By Mike Mahler

Fish oil lowers inflammation by suppressing the immune system. This can be useful if you have an overactive immune response. However, if you don’t then suppressing the immune system is as negative as it sounds. Restorezyme lowers cortisol levels, more specifically it lowers the need for a cortisol response to inflammation which will in turn …

Recovery is everything! Restoration must be prioritized

By Mike Mahler

Recovery is everything. Without adequate recovery not only will your training performance suffer greatly, you will place yourself in a rapidly aging state and increase the likelihood of health issues. Your hormonal profile for sure will be negatively affected which is why sex drive and function are obliterated when stress levels remain too high for …

The best supplement for training recovery

By Mike Mahler

Essential fatty acids, ginger, and curcumin are all useful to mitigate inflammation and support healing. However, they are not even close to the power of systemic enzymes for improving workout recovery and pain relief. I started using systemic enzymes in the early 2000s. It took a few weeks to find the activation dosage but once …

My journey to find effective supplements started in the 90s

Unlike Tribulus, ASTB is the one that actually works

By Mike Mahler

Growing up in the 90s, the first supplement that we all had high hopes for improving the natural production of testosterone was the Bulgarian herb Tribulus Terrestris.

Efficacious methods to optimize your testosterone levels

By Mike Mahler

Testosterone is a principal hormone that enables men to be at their best.

When your testosterone levels are ideal, you feel strong …
