Answer 1

In general = Creatine, whey / soy protein mix for fast and slow digestible proteins and / or a balanced meal replacement, liquid essential fatty acids, whole-food based multi-vitamin & mineral, ZMA, ecdysterone & methoxysterone and a solid nutrition plan. You should also research clinically proven muscle building supplements listed on consumerlabs.com. Without testing you are at the mercy of marketing gimmicks and fads.
Clinically speaking; lifting weights using compound barbell exercises (Squats, Dead lifts, Bench Press, Dips, Pull-ups, Military Press and so on) in the 8-12 repetition range (1-3 sets for each major muscle group approx 2 times a week) will greatly raise your testosterone. You should also keep your nutrition solid with 4 to 5 small healthy meals including fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats and whole grains. Following a regular sleeping pattern and avoiding excess alcohol will also help. Once you devote about 12 weeks to this basic program you will want to go on a more varied program. Changing your reps every week or so. It will take time and persistence to achieve your goal, but you can do it. Unless your taking anabolic steroids (not recommended) then the average person will max out at adding 2 pounds of lean muscle mass weekly until your body adapts to the program. This is why you should always change your program every few weeks to keep growing after you complete a base 12 week system like the one listed above.
