If you watch one of his livestreams you’ll know he is a die hard ai/OpenClaw guy and is speaking on his passions. He’s a really animated guy. The hype that comes out in his tweets is what he puts out in the livestreams for 2-3 hours multiple times per week. He’s not faking it. Quit hating on someone for loving something so much and wanting to share that with everyone he knows.
Nobody wants to hear this but I'll say it anyway.
Hustle culture is DESTROYING men's hormones.
Cortisol and testosterone don't coexist.
When you're grinding 12-hour days, skipping sleep, running on stress and caffeine — your body goes into survival mode.
And in survival mode, testosterone gets SHUT DOWN.
Your hypothalamus stops signaling. Your testes stop producing.
Because your body has decided: we don't need to reproduce right now, we need to SURVIVE.
Sex drive gone. Muscle gone. Recovery gone. Focus gone.
You thought you were being disciplined.
Your body thought you were under attack.
The guys who turn 42 and feel NOTHING...
They didn’t lose their drive by accident.
Their body turned on them after years of being ignored.
A newly published study just pulled back the curtain on why so many men are using testosterone boosters.
Here's what I can tell you from working with dozens of them:
They use them because they feel like garbage and their doctor won't help.
And here's what the boosters actually do.
Tongkat Ali. Fenugreek. Ashwagandha.
They work. Kind of.
Going from 350 to 450 ng/dL on a supplement stack is real. That's a 29% increase.
You know what I felt at 450?
NOTHING.
Because you need to hit 600-800 before most men feel a meaningful difference.
And no supplement stack on earth is getting you from 350 to 700 when your cortisol is through the roof, your sleep is garbage, and your aromatase is converting whatever you make into estrogen.
Supplements nudge a system that's working.
They can't repair a system that's broken.
The men buying these products aren't stupid. They're desperate.
And the healthcare system failed them so completely they're turning to a $40 bottle of pills.
My first published work from my PhD.

Reporting on the experiences and perceptions of males using testosterone booster supplements.
I hope you enjoy the read.
The fat around your midsection is ACTIVELY working against you.
Not just weight. Not just aesthetics.
Your fat tissue contains an enzyme called aromatase.
It converts your testosterone into estrogen IN REAL TIME.
The more you carry in the middle, the more T you're converting away EVERY SINGLE DAY.
And here's what makes it evil:
The estrogen that gets created then tells your body to make LESS testosterone.
So you gain fat → lose T → gain more fat → lose more T.
It's a loop. It compounds. And it accelerates.
Two guys. Same testosterone production. One at 15% body fat, one at 28%.
Completely different hormone profiles.
The guy wondering why the gym isn't moving the needle...
This is where I'd look first.
Your problem isn't effort. It's biochemistry.
This study is incredible and completely misses the point.
500,000 men. Daily low-dose tadalafil. 27% fewer heart attacks. 34% fewer strokes.
Everyone's reaction: "take more Cialis!"
MY reaction: WHY ARE THERE 500,000 MEN WITH ED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
ED doesn't appear out of nowhere.
It shows up 3-5 years before a cardiovascular event because the SAME inflammation destroying your heart is destroying your blood vessels everywhere else first.
The small arteries in your p*nis fail before your coronary arteries.
Your bedroom is the early warning system.
Cialis improving heart outcomes doesn't mean Cialis is the solution.
It means men are walking around so inflamed that a vasodilator is literally saving their lives.
Fix the inflammation, insulin resistance, and the hormonal axis.
Then you won’t need a pill doing the job your body should’ve been doing all along.
Doctors are urging more men to take Viagra and Cialis after a new study found that erectile dysfunction meds have sweeping implications beyond the bedroom. https://t.co/PebW8laHKl
One of the world’s top medical journals just admitted what I’ve been saying for years.
There is NO agreed-upon number for what "low testosterone" even means.
Doctors are debating whether the cutoff should be 230 ng/dL or 350 ng/dL.
Meanwhile your doc looked at your 325 and said YOU'RE FINE.
You are not fine.
You're sitting in the gray zone where insurance won't approve treatment, your symptoms are "subclinical," and no one connects the dots.
Fatigue. No morning wood. Brain fog. Zero libido.
That's not aging. That's your body running on fumes while the medical system argues over a number.
The reference ranges shifted LOWER over decades because average men got sicker.
"Normal" now means normal for a depleted population.
It doesn't mean optimal. It doesn't mean you should feel this way.
Get your FREE testosterone, SHBG, and cortisol checked too.
Total T is just the beginning.

Let me say this CLEARLY.
Viagra is not a solution.
It's a bypass. It's duct tape on a broken pipe.
ED shows up 3-5 years before a cardiovascular event.
NOT a coincidence. NOT a scare tactic. That's what the research says.
Your p*nis has arteries 1-2mm wide. Your coronary arteries are 3-4mm.
Inflammation hits the small vessels FIRST.
Before your heart gives out, your bedroom issues usually warn you first.
And most guys are out here taking a pill just to silence what their body is screaming at them.
The fire is still burning. You just can’t see the smoke anymore.
I pulled bloodwork on a client who thought he had "performance anxiety."
- Your inflammation is high.
- Your body is having a hard time controlling blood sugar.
- And your usable testosterone is extremely low.
He wasn't anxious.
He was INFLAMED.
And his doctor never looked.
"Just take Tongkat Ali. Your T will go up."
They're not wrong. Mine did. Went from 350 to 450. That's a 29% increase. Looks great on paper.
But most studies showing "huge" gains are on men starting at 100s or 200s. Low baseline = inflated percentages. Going from 350 to 450 didn't change how I felt.
Going from 193 to 450 did. And that wasn't just supplements. That was a full lifestyle overhaul. Because supplements can't overcome microplastics, elevated cortisol, or reduced REM sleep.
To actually feel different, most guys need to get to 600-800. Supplements can nudge you. A real protocol gets you there.
I had a client who was 44. Married 12 years. High performer at work. Hit the gym 4x a week.
Couldn't figure out why his sex drive had basically disappeared. Tried a test booster. His doctor told him he was "fine."
We pulled his bloodwork. Cortisol through the roof. Testosterone at 290.
He wasn't broken. His system was under constant stress and his hormones were taking the hit for it.
Eight weeks later after fixing the inputs, his T was 540.
Amazing what you can fix when you have the right data.
The 4 chemicals controlling your sex drive:
1. Testosterone - the engine
2. Dopamine - the desire
3. Serotonin - the mood
4. Cortisol - the kill switch
If these four chemicals aren't in an optimal state neither will your libido.
That means low energy, mood, and drive.
And eventually ED issues in the bedroom.
To make sure that doesn't happen, you need to control the 4 key inputs that drive what I call the Libido Flywheel.
Low T isn't your problem. High cortisol is.
Cortisol is the kill switch for your hormones. When it's elevated, your body shuts down testosterone production because it's prioritizing survival over reproduction.
Research confirms chronically elevated cortisol directly suppresses testosterone by up to 40%.
If you've been feeling off, losing that drive and having performance issues, this is one of the first places I would check.
Your erection is a hydraulic event.
Three systems have to fire in sequence:
1. Your hormones
2. Your nervous system
3. Your vascular system
Most guys think it's either low T or a blood flow issue but they're not looking at the whole system. That's why test boosters and Viagra don't really fix anything.
Here's why:
Boosting T only addresses one input.
Viagra just increases bloodflow temporarily.
Neither fixes your nervous system which could be causing a signal breakdown nor address upstream effects as to why your T is low in the first place.
The faster you start addressing the root cause, instead of treating the symptoms, the quicker you'll be able to reverse ED for good.
