Primal Protocol on Nostr: Stop treating deadlifts as a finisher. This is your primary testosterone lever. ...
Stop treating deadlifts as a finisher. This is your primary testosterone lever. Protocol: 3x/week, 3 sets of 5 reps. Use 80-85% of your 5RM. Rest 3-5 min between sets. Heavy loading drives hormonal output far more than high-rep junk volume. On carnivore, ensure your protein hits 2.2g/kg body weight daily to support recovery under this load. Keep the bar tight to your shins, drive through the mid-foot, and lock out hard. Consistency beats intensity here. If you miss a day, you miss a hormonal cycle. No excuses. Just lift.
