    There is an app called “Zombies, run!” that literally uses the same idea, but with zombies instead of lions. It basically makes you listen to a story where you go looking for supplies and every so often, you get chased down by a horde of zombies and it uses your phone’s motion sensor to track whether you’re moving fast enough to escape them.

      Yeah, but it doesn’t make you think that you’re actually being chased by zombies because you know you’re not being. It’s just a fun game. It’s not going to increase testosterone levels. It’s just about being healthy.

      OP here is just been thick.

        Well neither does imagining being chased by lions then. Unless you have really good imagination, I guess. But I imagine in that case, either would work.

    I love when anons post “I’m going to put a giant magnet in front of my car to pull it forward without gas. Any scientific proof that it works?” as if they didn’t just pull this bullshit directly out of their own schizophrenia.

    The funniest part of this is the title of the OP. “Lions chasing me.” Tells you nothing about the actual post but makes it that much funnier

      I really wonder about this. Where I live, there are near-constant “men’s clinic” commercials, especially on the radio, and I’m just curious about how widespread a problem “low-t” actually is? Is basically every man over 30 struggling to get it up?

      Or are these clinics just trying desperately to convince men that they need their services?

    I tend to think that the testosterone increase would come from absolute terror, and fleeing in panic, but OP will know that the lions roaring is only a recording. He’ll know he can stop if one of his shoes is uncomfortable, ffs. That changes the scenario a bit.

      Maybe sounds that might actually happen around OP happening randomly and also realistic sounding. Like a car beeping right next to them or aggressive dogs right on their heel. Would probably only work for a bit.

    there’s a place in UK where you can stay next to the lion enclosure and they will walk past your bedroom window

    A fight or flight response triggers adrenaline, norepinephrine, and cortisol. The latter being the stress hormone, which is highly catabolic. Sounds like the opposite of what anon wants.

    When do lions roar? I personally wouldn’t want to tip off a prey animal that I’m coming for them.

    Op needs to wire his soundtrack up to an insulin pump filled with adrenaline. I’m thinking lift scene from crank + lions
