    TRT Treatment

    Hey Guys

    I'm new to the site and just wanted to post a thread as a part of my research into TRT. Just a little about me. I am 37 and after a lot of research recently made my appointment with the doc for bloodwork and to atrt my TRT. Like many I am lookngfor a little information on muscle building. I have looked at several other members that had threads on here about the topic but I am a little different.

    I am a former football player so I have lifted weights for the most part of my life. I am already huge currently I am out of shape and I had a LONG setback from working out dur to an injury. right now I am 6'1 315. I am 2 years removed from my best shape when I was down to 255 and was approx 16% BF. So I have a good idea of how to train and eat well. My question is more with what can I expect from the TRT and is there anything I should consider. when I was younger I used PH's and had sucess. EPI/TREN /HDROL. what I am wondering is will my past usage adversley affect my TRT effects?

    Any input is welcome.

    Thanks

    What kind of symptoms are you having? Or, why do you think you have low test? Once you get bloodwork you'll be able to get a much better snapshot of what's going on with you. Many health issues have similar symptoms as low test. Have you had your thyroid checked recently? Hypothyroidism has very very similar symptoms to hypogonadism. If you were 255 and 16% bf at your best, what is your composition now? People would be surprised how much better a healthy diet and intense workouts can make them feel, and affect their hormone levels as well. Losing a good amount of body fat can work wonders.

    I THINK I have lower test levels due to my lack of driver/motivation/weight gain. I could be completely wrong and will know more when I take the BW. I'm interested never the less. If I had to guess i would say I am 30%bf right now. yes I do understand that a a regimine and good diet could make a workd of a difference. I just started working out again yesterday. So I have a LLLOOONNNGGG road ahead of my self. I could be jumoing the gun and a TRT may not even be the route to go. I just like to be educated and prepared.

    Again thaks for the info.
