The figure shows that many male powerlifters had testosterone levels below the 10 nmol/L threshold, (lower than average testosterone levels of male athletes in other sports). Do lower testosterone levels result from some aspect of powerlifting training or do men with lower testosterone levels have an advantage in powerlifting? What does this have to do with effects of testosterone, skeletal muscle, lung capacity, energy storage and consumption?
