Afterall, the point is to improve quality of life, right?

    I have been on TRT since early 07' and will never look back. I can build mass and recover with the best of them (well almost). I lift with my 18 and 20 y/o sons and THEY complain to ME about pain. Haha.

    Its worth having your panel done to see what your test is. Mine was 105, now I keep it between 800-1000.

    I also take 4 caps a day of Glucosamine which almost eliminates any aches I may have. I have had both knees done within the last 10 years (ACL/MCL) from sports injuries and they will act up occasionally during and after heavy squats, but I can still put up 450lbs. Nothing that 1000mg of Ibuprofen won't handle.

    At the end of the day, after a tough workout, I still wouldn't have it any other way. Makes me feel alive to feel a little pain.
