Looking for advice at the age of 46

[fjr02]

dthig,

I'm 48 and I used gear in the early-mid 80's. We used quite a bit and had great results. I laid off for 20 yrs and am now training again. Still clean at this point. I've been back in the gym for a few years now and things have become stagnant, so I'm going to give SARMs a try beginning 03January. I'm familiar with the sides of cycling first hand. The acne, the gyno, the PCT. I had gyno surgically removed in '93.
We'll see how the SARMs goes. If that doesn't pan out, I may go on a mellow cycle.

I'd also get a Test test from your Doctor, just to confirm where your levels are at now.

Since you have not been training lately I would not cycle yet. Give your body a chance to strengthen on it's own through normal clean lifting for a while. Get some good training books and learn to do it the right way.
There a lot of decent over-the-counter pre-workout, post work-out products, & different styles of protein these days available for you.
After a decent time period once you've hit a plateau, re-evaluate a cycle.

Just my opinion.

thanks! that is the plan. It turns out my old doctor has been working in "age management" for several years now. I don't have any insurance and very limited money, but I sent him an email explaining my situation and asking for advice. I still don't believe it, but he replied and told me he would call me this weekend out of the office to discuss it. A personal call, "out of the office". Crazy.

I have already started researching what and how much to eat. Sure seems like a lot of food, but it is what it is.

Thanks again
