Is a mans muscle mass determined by how much testosterone he produces on a daily given day? Im just curious becuase I was thinking lets say I produce (example only) 6mg of testosterone a day and I weight 170lbs naturally with 6% BF at a height of 5'7" and another guy who comes by who is the same height, but he weights 195lbs with 6% BF, but he produces 8mg of testosterone/day then whats the point of me lifting anymore then knowing I cant build any more muscle mass becuase im limited by how much natural testosterone I produce? I hope I dont sound dumb, but it just crossed my mind why keep trying so damn hard day in and day out to gain muscle if im stuck naturally at a specific muscle mass amount. |

very strange question...my advice would be never give up..cause that's what its sounds like your trying to do. you can always better your self. and you may still end up lookin better than that guy. plus by busting your ass you will increase you nat test levels also. just keep pluggin away. make the best of it.
and remember the big 3
bench
dead
squat
keep em in the 3-5 rep range and your natty test levels will rise.
get enough sleep and eat enough.
i posted a thread not to long ago on how to raise natty test levels here in the training forum. just do a quick search for natural testosterone and it should bring it up for you.

Its not just testosterone. A whole lot of things go into what your muscle mass is now and what it can be.
Keep working out.

Not giving up, but sometimes I dont train as hard as I used to thats all I was just thinking maybe im hiting my 30s now and my test. is getting lower than before.

The natural muscle freaks out there do not necessarily have extrodinary T-levels. They just have plain ol' god blessed genetics. With all the gear in the world and the best training you will never ever come even close to looking like a pro bodybuilder. Not even close! however, you can make great progress with what you have with proper training/diet/rest . . . . . lil gear never hurt neither...
