32 and considering getting on test forever
I'm 32, been lifting since I was 15. I hit my genetic potential when I was 22. Since then I've been the same or smaller. One thing I realized is I never got the body I wanted. I look pretty big with a shirt on (I'm 6'2, 245 lbs), but I'm also carrying fat especially around the stomach and moobs. I think I'm about 18% BF.
I'm considering getting on testosterone and just staying on a "therapeutic" dose of 250 - 400 mg/week of Test E. At this dose I hope I don't need any anti-estrogens and I hope I don't retain too much water.
My concerns:
I have a slightly elevated blood pressure which I control with medicine. Resting BP is around 130/80 or slightly lower with a heart rate of 65.
For you guys who know your sh!t:
I am looking at cutting down to 225 lbs and maintaining around 10% BF. Considering that's a 20 lb drop from where I'm at now, I'm hoping that if I do get on Test I will be able to maintain a similar BP since I'll be lighter - even though I'll be on test.
My question:
Can I realistically expect to take a moderate dose of Test E and reduce the chance of most side-effects, including increased BP, decreased LDL, increased HDL with a very clean diet and lower body mass? I don't want to overcomplicate things and become a science experiment and I want to stay as healthy as possible.
thank you!
