So, some here know me, built 1st home gym in 1978 w/ my father. Drove to Ed Jubinville's in Holyoke MA, bought some benches, weights, etc.
Trained from Dec 1978/Jan 1979 to 2009 drug free. (30 years). Tried my 1st pro-hormone in 2009 thanks to a generous buddy.(Epidrol).
Put 30 lbs on my bench, 10 pounds on my body, lost it all after the 30-day "cycle". Just happened to get blood work done for my yearly physical and it was horrible when normally fine.
Tried a few more w/ the same outcome (feel like crap on them, lose all things gained right away).
Never really take time off from training, maybe 1-week per year. 2016 when turning 50, went on TRT. 125 mg a week now has me at 800+ (still in high-end range).
No longer natty and proud of it. (The "natty loudmouths" are a joke and normally look pathetic,t he rest lie).
Well this week is a nice/planned week off from training, just had blood work, everything perfect. (Cardiac CT Calcium scan re-do coming up as my heart rate wouldnt duck below 80).
Beta-blocker on the way for re-test. DO my blood-pressure and pulse at home or in CVS, everything perfect, go to Dr. or dentist it gets raised, which they say is normal. (A little Dr. anxiety).
Anyways, at advanced age, I really welcome the planned week off, injuries feel better, joints, mind gets a refresh, etc. Nice little July vacation this week, drinking a few beers, grilling, still chasing the old-lady around, lots of nude cardio.
Now cant wait to get back to the iron next week. Time off and recovery are important, need to step up my heart/cardio game as I age a bit now.
Happy July to the best people on the webz, GetBiggers (libatrd, pubtard, it dont matter, we all came here for one reason).
