Olympic lifters/Crossfit workout and diet thread

Oh I'd believe. My girlfriend ... fucking wow. I don't know if it's healthy for a guy my age to go like I have been. And I'm seriously doubting if I will be able to keep up this pace without some chemical help in the future.
Once started is TRT a lifetime commitment?

This gal should be locked away or something. Lol! I really can't list all of the things she's done to me. Am almost scared "of it," and looking into starting on Viagra. Never seen anything like this in my life.. Anyhow, for me trt is a lifetime thing until a safer way comes along. The males on the non-Italian side of my family are damned near all low test cases by age 35. Those who don't address it, seem to find alcohol to be a comfort. Sad...
I will point out, of you're on a low tank, and start trt, blood labs should be a monthly thing for at least six months or so. I'd be typing for hours about the things that can occur with the use of exogenous testosterone in the wrong doses for you. Too low, and you just shut down your htpa. Too high, and cardiac, hepatic, renal, etc., issues can raise their heads.

The best way to describe it is that you get the benefits of TRT for as long as you are on it. As soon as you go off, the benefits stop. Most guys don't stop once they start because they don't want to go backwards.

Exactly. I'd flip if I had to stop the trt.

The risks associated with TRT are numerous. I've cycled, but I do so rarely and I doubt that I would ever go on a lifetime of TRT. I would go with hCG and clomiphene before taking that step.

Am hearing some very promising stuff with the above, and HMG. Last time I stepped on the gas, HCG, HMG, clomid, and Nolvadex together, did some amazing stuff. Kept gains like crazy, and since both LH and FSH were hit with signals via the hcg and hmg, I do wonder if that may have done something that could eliminate my need to be on testosterone. Interesting!

Your estrogen will be through the roof if you use HCG for HRT purposes. Been there done that. I went to an older doctor in his late sixties and he gave me HCG and it was a nightmare because the output of the testes in response to HCG is not linear by a longshot. So what you end up with is big random spikes in endogenous testosterone being produced which the body EASILY converts to estrogen. If you try to do a small amount everyday, then the testes eventually get desensitized which is a dead end. Using HCG to kickstart the system back in gear coming off a cycle is one thing, but using it for HRT is not viable over the long term.

Bro, check into HMG. Comes in 75 or 150iu vials. I used 75iu's eod for three weeks after a cycle, and that's some amazing stuff when combined with hcg. Yes, estrogen is an issue, and I'll actually use tamoxifen for that post cycle.

Being immune to estro sides @ 1 gram of test isn't too bad of a genetic trait to have.

You shitting me? Without Aromasin, my blood pressure would be 600/300:eek:
Anyone who can run a gram of test and no AI is a genetic freak!

 

[LEAPup]

I've taken more w/o an AI. No difference. I would try a short (4-6wk) hCG at 250IU, twice a week. No AI should be needed at that dose. Then a couple months of clomid. Sure, it's no sub for TRT, but you're married to that position if you go on. Shutdown will be arduous if you decide to go off after a year or two.

Jesus! Don't know how you cats do it! With just a bump up to 400mg/week test, I'm bloated, high bp, and itchy nips. Am the poster child for aromatization.

Well, 1g of test is moronic and it was test-e. The ester es grande. Different story doing 1g of prop.

Did it force you into menopause?

Never did a gram of prop. I can imagine that would hit hard, and send totals into the 2,500-3,500 range lol. Would be interesting to see, as if injected 150mg/day, can imagine the blood plasma levels straight up, and holding there vs the swings with the long stuff. Very interesting thought.. If I was 22 again, I'd give that a go. At 42, and my past, I'd burst all over the walls. I don't think I could take enough Exemastane to keep my head from popping off.:eek:
I REALLY hate this low dose stuff old bastards are prescribed! Shit, there's a doc in my neck of the woods who wrote Dave Palumbo 400mg/week depo test, 200mg/week nandrolone, hcg, and sermorelin (night-time injection-gh release) 400mg/week test is a WHOPPER of a dose, plus the 200mg deca!:eek:I would have written him 50mg/week nandrolone, and 100mg depo test/week. Writing like that, IMO, is a hell of a lot of risk. 600mg total/week gear for life... I don't know about that one..

Lol! I'm actually needing some HMG now. Have plenty of HCG, but since I screwed my htpa up recently with the low dose nandrolone blend, this has been a rough two weeks. Of course, ordered Viagra, but since I didn't have any on hand, ran and bought some Arginine AKG. Label dose 3 tabs tid. Am taking 9 tabs tid.:eek:Is helping well, however. But does kill me, as when I used 600-800mg/week NPP and Deca mix, could "go" all the time. If I even dream of a dose like that now, it's pure castration for me. And just damn! Nandrolone is still one of the very best for me. Am considering Dostinex, as the prolactin sides from the 19nor's tren and nandrolone wear me out these days.
