Thats a good point. I had wondered why aspirin would not have a consistent effect on testosterone in the cited study and the increased metabolism solution satisfies my curiosity. I'll have to take your Pops advise too.I believe it's great for raising T, and generally androgenic.
The problem I see with those studies is feeding. As aspirin increases metabolism, it will require more sugars and nutrients to support its effects, similar to caffiene. I have felt the aspirin crash after not feeding enough, it is actually comparable to a caffiene crash, disoriented/exausted feeling. I doubt the rats in that study were eating correctly...
Anecdotally I have been taking aspirin long before I encounterred peat. I was a serious athlete in high school and loved weight training. I was trying all out to increase my bench and squat, because I thought it was so important to be the strongest most muscular 17 year old hahaha... even at the expensive of my studies but anyway you get the picture, I hit the plateau and couldn't gain anymore so at that time I was reading into steroids and hormones and supplements. I knew enough not to take the plunge into roids ocean but I still wanted something to give me an edge and I was already taking huge amounts of protein, carbs, creatine, etc. So one day my Dad, (who has always been a fan of aspirin in spite of everyone telling him it causes ulcers) reccommended I try 1 aspirin each day. It actually worked great, and I was beginning to get scared just one aspirin was working so well. I was getting leaner and finally pushing near 250 on bench and all my friends were accusing me of taking steroids. Nope, it was a single aspirin a day, just like pops said, and he's never heard of Peat.
