Hi

Posting for the first time. I was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction so I can find info on whether or not to go forward with my first cycle of testosterone.

I'm 49. I've always been a pretty steady gymn rat. A little running, a little lifting. I always got results quick. I had surgery about 5 years ago on both knees. Just never got back into it. Now I'm about 25 lbs over where I want to be, but more importantly by BF is way over my comfort zone.

Here's the thing. In 7 weeks at the gym, I've shown little improvement. I mean, I'm better, but because I used to change pretty quickly, I'm just impatient I guess. My wife says I'm old and thats the way it is, just get used to it. I had my test checked and its below normal, but not enough below normal to warrent injection. Androgel did squat.

My sex drive is also almost non existant, I get the blues pretty often. Kinda all the symptoms of text book andropause.

I've begun to research injecting test pro. I think this would be appropriate because its seems to be easier to get off if there are problems. I realize there are issues with gyno, etc and have researched the approriate drugs for that (arimidex, etc). But this is all new to me and I just want to make sure I cover all the bases. The injections are a bit worrisome, but I really don't get bothered by injections in general. I was on HGH for a while, but those pins were short and ridiculously inoffensive.

Really my questions are:
What sites do you recommend I read? I need info on dosage, scheduling, arimidex inof or other options.

Is 49 years of age just a bit too old to begin messing with this stuff? I've got HBP, but its controlled with pills. ANy problems with test? I've also kicked around the idea of using clen in order to loose a few more pounds. I used ECA stack for a few years and loved that. Its just been so much more difficult to shed fat now than it was a decade ago. I like food and I understand that my foodie interest will effect my waist a bit. I'm ok with that. I just want to improve.

I realize I know squat about this stuff, but I would like to know more. I just don't want to miss out on any good info thats out there. I just can't accept the "youre old, buy some walking shoes and just get healthy" stuff. Not yet.
I still want to LOOK GOOD as well as get healthier. Is this a pipe dream?

I really appreciate any info you guys can give me, especially from someone who was in my shoes. Thanks again.
