    Test dose relative to size of individual?

    Just wondering if the size (height, weight) of the individual jucing impacts the amount of testerone needed to be an effective dose or is it just based on cycle experience.

    For example if you take two first time users, one is 5-8 150 and one is 6-4 220, would you recommend they take the same amount of test?

    Just curious

    It makes some difference, but previous use will make more of a difference in the dose needed than starting size.

    Not as far as gains go. Though old guys will certainly respond better to a low dose than young guys, based on their natural baseline.

    As you get older for most the natty levels drop. So a lower dose makes more impact for an older person than a younger person

    every body is really different when it comes to a test dose and how it correlates to blood serum levels.

    I'm on trt, weigh 240, and 70mg test e / week still puts me over 700.

    Other guys smaller than me can ttake 200mg test e / week and just be slightly higher than that.

    so I don't think there's any correlation between weight and the right dose of test to hit a target blood serum level.

    the other thing is that one guy can be "rich" with receptor sites, and another guy, not so much.

    there are a few variables and i don't fully understand why the difference.

    additionally, there are drugs out there that are totally blind to body weight.... a 100lb person would take the same dose as a 200lb person.

    maybe someone else can step up and give a better explanation?
