In this solo episode of Strength 101, Nick dives into one of the most misunderstood topics in fitness: testosterone. But this isn’t just for the dudes. Nick breaks down why testosterone matters for everyone — and how you can improve it naturally. No needles, no prescriptions — just sleep, lifting heavy, saturated fats, and honest talk. Drawing from his experience with mountain-man mentor Johnny Woodford and stories from inside the gym, Nick unpacks the habits that move the needle: getting quality sleep, training with intensity, eating smarter (yes, even bacon), and managing body fat. Whether you're a competitive lifter or just tired of feeling sluggish, this episode offers a no-BS guide to optimizing your hormones and reclaiming your energy.
