    I keep getting these ads for Testosterone boosting supplements. The boosted Testosterone is supposed to enhance my performance. The ads are a bit vague so it's unclear to me how Testosterone is supposed to cause me to be a better programmer. The lack of information leaves me with more questions than answers. For example, what is the implication of this for women programmers? I'm baffled.

    Amfetamine does it better, and what's more, it is usually deeply memorable :)

      It turns you into a brogrammer.

      Brad If you think you can, you will. If you think you can't, you won't. Either way, you're right.

            Testosterone supplements are simply the male version of HRT. When blokes get older, the amount of testosterone produced drops. Testosterone is responsible for a whole range of things including alertness and resilience to stress factors. It's banned in most sports as a PED unless you've got an exemption, so it is definitely associated with performance enhancement. There are perfectly natural ways to influence your own testosterone production using diet and exercise. It's also beneficial to women as they also have T in their systems, albeit far less. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testosterone[^]

                You could do the pre-workout supplements from GNC or a similar store. They are just a little drink, like coolaid powder. Until you get used to them, it'll be about the same affect.

                If it moves, compile it

                    In order to solve those issues you should contact Naerling, which has plenty of experience in such advertising aspects. :rolleyes:
