Listen "Testosterone, Energy, and Optimal Living: Dr. Jack Rocco on Hormone Replacement Therapy"
Episode Synopsis
In this candid episode of the Ultimate Men's Movement, Dr. Jack Rocco of the Ultimate Men's Clinic sits down with Neil Haley to have a raw, unfiltered discussion about testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). Neil shares his personal decision to start TRT—not due to dangerously low levels, but to push past “average” and reach optimal performance.The conversation dives into the medical perspective, common symptoms of low testosterone, the difference between functional medicine approaches and traditional standards, and the noticeable physical and mental benefits Neil has already experienced just weeks into treatment.Traditional vs. optimal testosterone ranges.Why Neil started TRT despite being in the “average” range (~430 ng/dL).Dr. Rocco’s medical responsibility and the Hippocratic Oath vs. wellness-focused, functional medicine approaches.Fatigue and low energy.Brain fog and reduced focus.Decreased libido and loss of “mojo.”Increased belly fat and slower recovery.Energy: Boost beyond his already high daily output.Focus: Improved memory recall and sharper mental clarity.Mood: Feeling younger, less irritable, and more driven.Physique: Increased muscle tone, firmer “pump,” and noticeable body composition changes.How TRT increases metabolism and can make fasting more challenging.Why muscle gain can temporarily increase scale weight.The role of isometric flexing (constant tension without movement) in stimulating muscle growth through nerve signaling and hypertrophy.Combining TRT with yoga, walking, and flexing techniques (including Diamond Dallas Page Yoga moves).The importance of before-and-after photos to track progress.Understanding realistic timelines—most men hit their “optimal” stride around three months.“I don’t want to be average. If I can be optimal in everything, why settle?” – Neil Haley“The primary goal of TRT is symptom improvement, but optimal living is about much more than lab numbers.” – Dr. Jack Rocco“Your muscles respond not just to weights, but to the signals your nerves send when you flex and hold.” – Dr. Jack RoccoUltimate Men’s Clinic: TheUltimateMensClinic.comLearn more about Diamond Dallas Page Yoga (DDPY): DDPYoga.comTestosterone Replacement Therapy, TRT, Low T, Men’s Health, Hormone Optimization, Fitness, Energy, Brain Fog, Libido, Muscle Growth, Isometric Training, Yoga for Men, DDP YogaKey Topics Covered:1.
