Background
35 years old, 5' 7", 215lbs, body fat prolly close to 26%
Test level: 238, usable 84

I'm starting my TRT (again) at the advice of my doctor (saw 2 doctors and an endocrinologist). I'm used to 200mg, 1 x week in previous cycles, but I recently changed to 150mg, 2 x week (Mon, Thurs). The peak/valley feeling is gone..thankfully.

So...I'm in week 3, and I've gained some weight....I feel a little bloated, and notice I've gained almost 6lbs.

Workouts: I had surgery on my left arm, so I couldn't lift for a while, but I've been doing about 40 miles a week on average in bicycling. I just started week 2 in the gym as well.

My questions:

1) Being Im not new to cypionate, but am new to 2 x week injections....will the 2 x week dosage impact my bottom line results?

2) 300mg a week feels good...I don't feel overly hyped (looking forward to more blood work in about 6 weeks). Will this dosage be of concern in water retention?

3) This is a permanent solution....not on/off cycle. I've noticed since I started biking in end of June, and especially last 2 weeks, I am always hungry. Side effect of test?

4) I was considering staking a prohormone with the cyp (albeit I'm aware of the liver impacts)...because I can't get other gear...but only for a short period (aka cycle). Is this bad considering I'll be on test the rest of my life?

I've got some threads I'm researching on for more info, but I thought Id get these questions out there since I couldn't find the answers in my search immediatley.

Oh, my goals. Pretty simple. I want to have great energy, lose about 15lbs (i'm stocky....previous 6 years exp in the gym)....and have a maintanable healthy lifestyle.

Cheers.
