    You understand that when you add synthetic testosterone you shut down your natural test production right? I'm not sure if you meant it that way but it sounds like you are trying to add test to what you already produce. Doesn't work that way.

    it doesnt matter if it shuts you down. if youre taking 200mg/wk. and part of that has to supplement what your natural output was. you still have a net gain of testosterone.

    im in no way suggesting this kid should do it. but it sounds like the question asked, was more based towards wether low doeses are usefull or not. and for some reason its become one of those things, that everyone just takes as "common knowledge", that you NEED 500mg/wk, for a good cycle.

    but really, there are many people who make great gains on small doses like 250mg/wk. but youll never know, unless you try.

    so as for the question. do people do it, and is it ok to do? YES, many people run small doses, and make great gains. but as for the OP's situation, you should try and put some weight on naturally first. 5'10" 160lbs, is still pretty skinny.

    interesting. Im learning a lot here lately since i stopped lurking.
    my diet is very clean-
    protein from lean beef, chicken, tuna, and whey PWO
    fats from flaxseed oil, nuts
    carbs from brown rice, oats, and oat bran

    macros are FAT: 155 CARB: 360 PRO: 265 CALS: 4000

    TDEE is about 3400


    Big: what would lead you to say that my diet has problems from those stats? just wondering

    are you completely satisfied with your current physique? I guess I shouldn't have assumed, but I thought if you were considering taking test perhaps you wanted to grow, and at your present stats there is a lot of room for natural growth.

    no im definitely not satisfied. Ive been stuck at those stats for almost a year. Despite tweaks in my diet and training ive not yet been able to get past this level. That is why i was entertaining the thought of using test.

    Dude you can go far at your age with that base and some diet knowledge.
    Hope in the Training section IMO and get into some different.
    Personally for 3 weeks I have been on heavy weights and low low reps (and on keto - dont do keto for you) and muscles are going like a beast!
