Impaired sleep is associated with low testosterone in US adult males: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Sleeping five instead of eight hours a night for a week lowered testosterone by around 15% Study on 531 Chinese men also found a link between sleep and testosterone. The more fat you carry, the lower your testosterone tends to be Study 1 Study 2 One study found that testosterone levels rise on days couples have sex and decline on days without it Another study found that sex increased testosterone by 72% A study by Amy Cuddy and her colleagues at Harvard University assessed how making postural changes impacts levels of stress hormones and testosterone. High power poses were able to increase testosterone meanwhile low power poses lowered testosterone This study moved subjects from a diet containing 40% of calories from fat to a diet containing 25% of calories from fat and then back to a 40% fat diet. Results showed that the low fat diet decreased testosterone levels significantly This study had 20 male university students with no previous resistance training experience follow a weight lifting plan three times per week. Thanks to this the students boosted their testosterone levels by 40% in four weeks, and they also lowered their resting cortisol levels by 24% Resistance training up-regulates testosterone receptors.
