running gives you HGH which makes you age slower nigga why would want test

>running gives you HGH

you think a movement that humans have used since the dawn of time to survive and hunt lowers test?

Working out lowers test you loser

Absolutely, You will turn into a literal woman shortly after.

hyperventilating during exercise removes the majority of the benefit

>primitive humans exercised with strict nasal breathing
interesting, post source

It's basically only asserted by Buteyko practitioners.

You'll have to try the method out for yourself to see the benefits.

try it yourself on heavy squats, it's much better to keep some air in to produce tension in the abdomen by breathing only through the nose.

>heavy squats
>not doing valsalva

Yeah honestly bracing makes heavy weights manageable. It makes your blood pressure go sky high while you're doing it though

>he doesn't know about Runner's HiGH

>It makes your blood pressure go sky high while you're doing it though
Nothing quite like coming up on that last rep and racking the weight, face bright red, neck popping, gasping for air.

>Yeah honestly bracing makes heavy weights possible
FTFY, unless you're a dyel

Yeah I get terrible headaches every fucking leg day.

did you ask them yourself?

No

jesus imagine writing an entire book about something like this. I fucking hate popular "science".

only if you run so much and so hard that you jack up your cortisol levels. standard liss conditioning or short intense runs won't do anything bad to your T levels.

HIIT is god mode for test, ultra marathons are horrible for it, moderate running is moderate in its effects

excessive Stress reduces your T-Levels it does not matter if its lifting,running or working

Well cortisol is a steroid hormones, what cardio does is elevate it DURING the workout and then release a copious amount when you hit the aerobic phase.
Which is benefitial because your harmones will not be affected through recoverying process yada yada anabolic and canabloic phase etc etc.. Something something, cardio isn't bad at all.


>Muh gains
Nah, you were just fat and never had the muscle mass to begin with.

>canabloic
I meant catabolic

long distance running has been proven time and time again to lower testosterone levels

Last time i ran 3 miles non stop it hurt my stomach. I was burping what smelled like rotten eggs for 2 days after.

Long distance running is a meme. Our ancestors didn't literally jog for hours searching for and hunting prey.

10km is long distance running and doesn't take hours if you're in shape.

only if running puts you in a caloric deficit. just eat more

It only lowers test when you run marathon-tier distances on a daily basis
You won't lose any test or muscle mass if you go for 20-30 minutes 3-4 times a week
If anything moderate cardio actually IMPROVES your gains. Stop being a lazy fat fuck

Heheh, I'd love to lose the weight but what's the point if you can't get it up?
