Got Testosterone? How Older Warriors Can Stay in the Fight and THRIVE! (Introduction)

Partisan Greetings, my Brothers! I trust everyone out there is welcoming the arrival of spring and hitting the training hard.

Lately, I’ve enjoyed the honor of having a few older Partisan readers reach out to me via email for additional fitness advice, and helping them got me thinking about the particular fitness and health needs of older Partisans. Based on my recent experiences at the superb tactical training courses I’ve taken in the last 15 months, as well as reading through various comments on American Partisan posts, I’ve deduced that a large number of this website’s readers as well as the general “tactical community” at large are males over 40 (including me) – older men that, despite being past their fighting-age prime, are still READY TO FIGHT, at least in spirit and oftentimes, even physically! Older Partisans are fighting men that have the wisdom and experience of our decades of life (hopefully, right?), as well as the burning desire to resist the ongoing, hideous commie takeover… but the body is older, worn down, and for many of us, the body has been reluctantly “decommissioned” from serious physical action.

And so this mismatch between patriotic passion and the physical reality will leave many fired-up Partisans feeling unable and unsuited for getting into the fight. Yes… the decommissioning due to aging is a huge and frustrating morale buster that hurts the warrior’s heart like nothing else – especially when the enemy is on the march! Nevertheless, many of us older Partisan warriors are simply NOT ready to pack it in and be old men just yet, am I right? Now, if only there were some practical way to squeeze some more action out of these old bones, to remain viable or even to get back into the fight…

Well, I’ve got some AWESOME news for older Partisan warriors: you too can up your fight game and extend/renew your readiness for ACTION by making some strategic anti-aging and manhood-boosting lifestyle changes that are key for rejuvenating the older warrior, getting him back into the best shape possible and, in many cases, fight-worthy too! That’s right. Think of how good it would be if our side could get some seasoned, post-prime trigger-pullers BACK into the action – or even fight-worthy for the first time ever – at a time when we need ALL hands on deck? And if nothing else, effectively turning back the physical aging clock is a huge quality-of-life booster by itself on a personal level for the warrior, even for those of us that simply can’t get into fighting shape due to age and/or practical reasons.

Therefore, in this Got Testosterone? series specially focused on older Partisan warriors, we’ll take a deep dive in plainspoken English to look at properly managing the male aging process for best results by singularly focusing on building testosterone, the prime rejuvenating hormone of manhood.

Indeed, good old testosterone – the “male hormone” – is a huge deal to us aging men, and rightfully so. In conversations with other dudes my age and older about the aging process, the subject of “Low-T” (low testosterone) comes up quite often, together with the gripes about the ever-increasing limitations of the “Low-T” life. Whether it’s a reduced sexual performance, aches and pains, a belly forming before our very eyes, the decrease in physical strength and vigor… you name it. It sucks! The aging process for the man is often marked by a certain feeling of inadequacy due to not being able to do things like we used to, whatever it may be. So it’s not surprising that many of us older warriors feel little choice but to bow out of the fight at some point – with a heavy heart.

Of course, many older men will turn to the medical establishment for “Low-T” intervention in the form of hormone replacement/testosterone therapy. That’s certainly effective, but wouldn’t it be great if we older Partisan warriors could take control of the matter ourselves and turn back the clock safely and without drugs, using gentle, non-toxic approaches to revitalizing ourselves from the inside out? Well, I’m here to tell you that it’s possible, and I’ll show the way with this Got Testosterone? series.

Knowledge is POWER, Brothers! That said, I’ll be sharing with Partisans all that I’ve learned – and am still learning – about how we can get into and stay in proper fighting shape in our middle and later years, so that we can maybe even roll with Partisan warriors half our age, and still THRIVE! I personally get a big kick out of running and gunning with my younger trigger-pulling peers, and even giving them a run for their money to boot. Y’all just KNOW you want to be able to do that, and I’ll show the way!

In this multi-part series on building testosterone, we’ll first take a close look at:

• What exactly testosterone is and does, as well as signs of low testosterone
• Potential causes of low testosterone (there are non-obvious causes that will probably surprise you!)

Next, we’ll do an in-depth review of safe, simple, and effective solutions for Partisans to fortify their internal testosterone levels, covering:

• Digestive and eating strategies
• Testosterone-supporting supplements
• Exercise considerations for older lifters to work out safely and effectively (and boost testosterone)
• Other non-food, non-exercise lifestyle approaches

Importantly, keep in mind that pharmaceutical-grade interventions for low testosterone are effective, but they are aggressive too; all pharmaceutical interventions have toxicity and thus have potential side effects that come part and parcel with the therapy. What’s more, the pharma therapy creates dependence (slavery, even?). Not good! What I’d like to present to my Partisan Brothers are options that skip the drugs, and that are safe, natural, AND effective too. The safe way may not provide instant gratification like pharma, but… the benefits are multifunctional, risk-free, and YOURS TO KEEP, and without being a slave to drugs. Think about that.

By the time you’re done reading the Got Testosterone? series, you should be empowered with a firm understanding of what testosterone is all about in a practical sense, how to boost it naturally using multiple approaches, and also how to approach your physical fitness while taking the age of your older body into proper consideration. After all, we’re not young men no more, and that has to be respected too, testosterone boost or not! Taken together, I am confident that many older Partisan warriors will gain knowledge they can immediately put to use to renew themselves, and maybe even get back into proper fighting shape for real, as the fight approaches us faster and faster.

Them old bones still got some kick-ass left in them, I know it! So stay tuned, Partisans! Good info is coming. Thanks for reading!
