It was a fast decision, but my mind hasn’t changed in several days, so it’s a done deal.
TRT at 125/wk., maybe 100. It’s either that or my natural numbers are ridiculous. Nothing else. I like my vitamins and supplements to support my liver as well as turmeric, but that’s it. No HGH. If there’s cancer anytime in my future, why fuel it more?
The shoulder pain is minimal, but function on the good side is decreasing. It’s hard to personally fathom but I’m arranging to have the basketball hoop removed from above the garage (to me it’s like burying a friend). If the shoulder pain acts like the DJD pain from my hips, then a total shoulder will happen sooner rather than later; so I’m keeping it at later. And, I’ll be damned if my hair isn’t looking better because of that laser helmet; so why putz with that?
Going to limit weight training to 2x/week (total body) & limit pec and delt work even more. I’ll keep putting a smile on my face with arms though. Bumping up the cardio outdoors to take advantage of our climate. And of yeah, I’m looking into an adult tricycle (5-7 speed). As my balance sometimes wavers, I figured it’s a smart choice. The recumbents go for an easy 2-4 thousand, but the tricycles around $700 (and they have a big basket that I can carry stuff in, lol). Checking out local stores now. I’m sure the pics will be breathtaking.
Morning sun is streaming in while I enjoy my coffee for now, then off for a 2 miler afterwards. Will gradually build, but damn, my wife regularly does 6, so I’ve got a ways to go.
Spider senses a tad calmer . . . . . .
