Great question! Testosterone is a hormone present in males and females (though much less in females than in males). It is associated with male sexual development, energy levels, bone formation, sex drive, and mood regulation. It is also associated with muscle development and improved muscular performance, which is one of the reasons that some athletes take synthetic hormones. There is a good deal of research exploring the link between exercise and testosterone. For example, one study found that regular physical exercise in females (ten or more hours a week) helped to increase testosterone levels while lowering body mass index. And, it's probably no surprise to learn that it's possible to do just the opposite with too much exercise. Several studies show lower testosterone levels in some endurance athletes. If you are such an athlete, or are experiencing symptoms of low testosterone ? low sexual function or desire, sleep disturbances, reduced muscle bulk, depressed mood
