A Year on Gear
« on: June 20, 2015, 04:47:47 AM »
Actually, 15 months, but that didn't rhyme. TRT levels, between 200-250 mg/week. Lost about 10 pounds of fat, put on about 15-20 of muscle.

Health wise, my blood pressure and resting heart rate went DOWN. My blood tests showed not a single deviation from the previous years.

Testosterone, is there anything it CAN'T do?

200-250 test/wk is not a trt level. trt level is more like 125-150 test/wk

Mostly true, but in our world it is!
Cruises now are often 500mg, lol...

125-150 shouldn't even really be trt level... Reality it should be around 100 and tapered down as you get older.. having 1396ng/dl as a 80 year old is not beneficial at all imo and the rest of the body can not handle that like it once could.. But i digress, THIS IS BODYBUILDING *Kicks man down hole*

Happy for you AJ. I'm considering the same right now and it's great to see that all your health markers are unchanged.

there is an 100% should because when levels are below 300 on avg for trt no dose should ever need to differ to get someone back to normal levels because now the artificial test is in control..The avg 3-900 people hold is now irrelevant because they're already in TRT range... The tapering down throughout old age should apply to everyone and if you don't believe me wait 20-30 years to get all of the lawsuits out of the way that are still taking place because of the risk factors associated and they will come up the fact that you don't need to be injecting 125mg/week when you're 80 and it's not natural or high-natural even for the average 80 year old...I'm just telling you before it happens it's factual

not according to some top endos, different people metabolize and excrete testosterone at varying rates, requiring differing TRT protocols. I agree doses should taper as people get older but that does not mean everyone should be on the same amount.

Where i live trt prescriptions are extremly rare. The protocol is a shot of 250mg of test E every  3 weeks.

my doc has me on 200 x 10 days....I jab 300 every 10 days. When I run out I just stop by his shop and get 200 in shoulder until the script re-kicks. The greatness of small towns.  ;D

Not really. I eat high protein, medium/low carb and pretty clean year round. I eat a pizza with my son every Sunday, but I've been doing that for years. I maybe went up 50g/day in protein, but nothing major.

These TRT doses are all over the place with you guys.

Here in South FL, TRT/HRT/Anti aging clinics are as thick as hair on a dogs back.  They may charge different prices ($99-$249 per month), they may offer different optional services (ED, HGH, IR, etc..) but the protocol is 99% the same.

200mg of test weekly - either 200mg cyp, 200mg enan, 100 cyp / 100mg enan, 150mg cyp / 50 prop
2 tabs adex weekly
500ius x 2 weekly of HCG

No matter your age, weight, height, race, yo momma's name, etc...  it is pretty much a cut and dried formula.  They do take records and make you have twice annual blood tests to be legit and keep their ducks in a row.  But other than that, nothing on the program changes.  It's one of the "better" programs I have seen compared to the dose and frequency other guys say they are on.  This is why you get a LOT of out of town patients to come down, open a mailbox up at the Mailbox store, see the doctor and then have their mail forwarded back to their home out of state.

i think continous use is not as much of a problem as high doses
however there really is no point in running it nonstop imo
some people feel better with it though, since it affects thyroid hormones etc too
500iu twice a week is a bit too high imo but whatever
florida docs seem to be generous with the dosages  :D
the adex is way more than necessary too

Probably. My natural production was trending down precipitously in the last few years.

125mg of test E every 3 days
12,5mg of aromasin ED (split am/pm)

HCG and peptides are great additions if you can afford
