What does it mean to be in your prime and who decides when you've hit it?
In this 100th episode, the guys reflect on the evolution of The Manhood Experiment and what it's taught them about growth, identity, and reinvention. With 500,000+ downloads and three years of consistent conversation, they're not just marking a milestone, they're part of a larger cultural shift in what manhood looks like today.
From shifting mindsets and building health to letting go of outdated versions of themselves, this episode is about stepping into a new kind of prime… one that's shaped by intention, self-awareness, and the willingness to evolve at any age. You'll hear how Dreamz reshaped his identity in his 20s, how T-Rex learned to become a serious student of life, and how J sees health and self-improvement becoming the new cultural baseline.
They also revisit some of their favorite show moments and unpack what it takes to change when you feel stuck in who you've always been.

Patel P, Fantus R, Lokeshwar S, et al. Trends in Serum Testosteron Levels Among Adolescent and Young Adults Men in the United State. Presented at: 2020 AUA Virtual Experience; May 15, 2020. Abstract MP78-01.
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
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. This means your body can use testosterone more effectively
BPA lowers testosterone and can cause erectile dysfunction
In a study involving 2,299 men found that those with a sufficient vitamin D level had much higher testosterone than those who were deficient in this vitamin
An eight-week study with 46-men with infertility problems found that 675-gram ashwagandha root extract increased serum testosterone levels by 17% compared to a placebo
A study found that five grams of ashwagandha a day for 90 days increased testosterone by 16% to 40% in infertile men and by an average of 15% in fertile ones
One group of “moderately stressed” participants increased their testosterone by 37% and lowered their cortisol by 16% as a result of consuming 200 mg of a tongkat ali extract for four weeks
Tongkat Ali - suggested as influencing the release rate of “free” testosterone from its binding hormone, sex-hormone-binding-globulin (SHBG)
