Increasing testosterone has been a hot topic for a long time, with thousands of supplements in the market promising aspiring bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts better results. However, with so many options out there, most are bound to be blinded by shams. Arnold Schwarzenegger recently highlighted this subject and shared a solution by Dr. Peter Attia to help increase testosterone naturally.

To boost testosterone, one might often resort to some popular supplements like deer antler velvet. However, Schwarzenegger immediately debunked the idea that it could lead to a boost in the hormone since it only delivered about 3,000 to 5,000 nanograms in an entire bottle. While, one needed an average of 25 million nanograms per day to build muscle.

This led him to quote certain studies on changes in the IGF-1 (a kind of hormone responsible for muscle growth). The results that these supplements promised showed up primarily in mice. Therefore, even if the famous deer antler velvet did make a difference, it wouldn’t be significant enough.

Here’s where Dr. Attia’s words of wisdom came in from the internet to debunk various theories of going about increasing testosterone. Schwarzenegger not only appreciated the video for the clear-cut message but also observed how it stood with most of the practices he had already preached about.
