My blood work test results...
I just had my blood work done 3 weeks ago. I'm about to turn 34 years old, I'm natural, I never used PED's and my total test is 503.35 (241.00-827.00 NG/DL)
Is that low, normal or high for someone of my age?

Testosterone Week: What’s a “Normal” Testosterone Level and How to Measure Your T
January 16, 2013
Today we’ll be taking a look at what’s considered a normal testosterone level and how you can get your testosterone levels tested. As I began researching testosterone levels and hormone testing for this series, I quickly learned that there’s a lot of conflicting and confusing information out there — some websites will say that “X” is a normal testosterone level, while another website says “Y” is the ideal range. Even medical labs give conflicting numbers on what’s a normal testosterone level.
Why so much confusion?
The problem is that there hasn’t been much standardization in hormone testing, particularly regarding T levels. Different labs use different methods (and measurements), which has only created confusion among consumers and even family doctors about what testosterone level results even mean.
Hopefully, the current state of confusion will soon change. The Center for Disease Control here in the U.S. started a project in 2010 to get labs to agree on standard hormone testing procedures. It’s slowly gaining ground, but not every lab has signed on.
I also learned that the bottom range of what’s considered “normal” by many doctors is actually woefully underestimated. Doctors are telling men who come to them with symptoms of low testosterone, “Well, you’re barely within normal range, but it’s still normal, so… you’re fine!”
No, Dr. Everything’s-A-Okay. It’s not fine.
I hope in this post I can clarify some of the confusion surrounding testosterone levels and hormone tests. I’ll be straight with you. This stuff is super confusing. I’ve done my best to synthesize all the disparate info out there into an easy-to-read format for the layman and have sought to create the most accessible resource on the web. But, I’m not a scientist or doctor, and may have gotten a few things wrong. If any of you professional endocrinologists see an error, I welcome your corrections.
Total and Free Testosterone Levels
Before we begin, I want to reiterate the fact that there are three different types of testosterone floating in your body: free testosterone, SHBG-bound testosterone, and albumin-bound testosterone. When you get tested, there are two tests you can get: total testosterone and free testosterone.

512 is totally normal in fact its a bit high. Mine were about 500 when I was coming off cycle last September but my free test was over 100. Its the free test that you should really be concerned about because the other test in bound up my SHBG which inactivates the test from doing anything as far as muscle growth.
