I am 31 years old and the lab result says that my serum testosterone level is 474ng/dl... is it really low for my age? It used to be above 800ng/dl about two years ago.... I am really shocked to see how it got low in only two years

So you had a testosterone level of 800ng/Dl at the age of 29? That pretty damn high at the age of 29...

474 is still not bad for a 31 year old..

Also do you know what is your Free test?

If your test is low, then your doc will give you test injections. This will get your gains moving.

Natural Test is actually relatively easy to get back in line and increase a little. More sleep, increase fat intake and cardio. Over in NZ they have different scale of tests. Normal is between 9-23 and mine was measure at 26  8) Its good to be young  ;D

300-800ng/dl is the normal range.

At 31, your in a good range.....leave well enough alone at this point.

As you age, and your Test levels approach 300, you might want to consider the application of Andro-Gel. This would put you back to your physiological norm.

This would be my recommendation unless your looking for Supra- physiological levels of Test in your system.

Hope this helps.

I'd still be doing cardio twice a week during bulking. It's good to keep the juices flowing.

Are you serious? If so you may need to see a doctor &/or an endocrinologist.
