On of my training bros is 47 years old

Hes been training for 25 years natural

If he should run Deca at 200mg / wk for ten weeks could decent gains be expected?

Any advice from the experienced?

Thanx

Even if he's been training for 25 ys or so he should get some blood work done before doing any AS! At 47 alot of things start to creep up on you quitely(high blood pressure,high cholresterol,etc..). If his blood work is ok 200mg/week of deca should give decent gains, but he should add at least 200mg/week test to avoid the possibility of the dreaded "deca dick" and then he should expect at least 15-20lbs of LBM if his diet and workout programs are up to par.

good point about the testing

WHen is it not a good idea to do the Deca in regards to the creeping up variables you described?

[righton]

Is it you or your friend that needs this help?? Anyways, start out at the mentioned doseage and after about 2 weeks or so check his/your b/p everyday and in a week he/you should have his/your average. If his/your b/p is not too high (178/110 which mine was!!!) he/you should be ok. Make sure he/you check it everyday and if it gets above high (140/90) he/you have a choice to make!

He should go with test only imo, at 47 his test levels are lower then they were when he was 25. He can save the deca for another cycle.

The blood work for sure needs to be done, he could have low test and could get a scrip for test. If his test is good a test cycle will be a great boost.

I agree with JohnnyB he should be on test and probably HGH. He would have no problem getting either from an anti-aging clinic although it might cost him.

Thanx

What if he's seeing a heart specialist every year or so to keep an eye on blood work and his muscle around his heart. He has a hereditary history of heart problems.

He's still interested in growth, any recommendations?

[GandolfReturns]

He's had high blood pressure and cholesterol from time to time but overall very healthy and in damn good shape. I've interested him in the dark side with my newly developped strength and size yet I suggested he'd start out with a low dose of deca - 200mg /wk for 10 wks, and see how his body reacts, only he has this medical history.

Any help will be appreciated.
