Ric Flair, 74, Reportedly Keeps His Testosterone Levels at 1,000+ to Keep Up With His “Hobbies”

You may know him as The Nature Boy, Ricky Rhodes, or The Almony Pony, but regardless, Ric Flair is an icon of sports entertainment.

Over his epic 41-year run, Ric is widely renowned as one of the best professional wrestlers of all time. But, perhaps rivalling his storied career, are stories of Ric's extracurricular hobbies outside of the ring.

In an ESPN 30 for 30 documentary, Ric shared how he has slept with over 10,000 women. And, the now 74-year-old retired wrestler is happy to share memories of his travelling exploits.

On an episode of This Past Weekend, Ric shared stories of his early sexual escapades.

"The fact of the matter is I could recover in 6 seconds... when you're young, you're a human squirt gun."

But, later in life, after decades of physical abuse, steroids, and reportedly wrestling an average of 400+ matches per year, Ric found himself a shell of his former self.

With a testosterone count of 12 nanograms (compared to the average 300-400 for someone his age), Ric sought outside intervention. He now sees a doctor regularly, keeping his testosterone count above 1,000 nanograms.

"The 400 at my age don't work either... they say, 'Isn't 1,000 a little high for you?', I say, 'Nope... perfect"

Although Ric hasn't been able to keep a marriage alive, admittedly citing his libido as the culprit, he's lived a wild life. And, perhaps his exploding hormones will help him continue to make memories for years to come.
