Finding my way back
ad
So after a long time off, I am finding myself getting back in shape, but I feel like it is soo much harder now that I’ve aged. So now I’m looking to stick my toes back in and add some low dose test to see if that will help even out the ruts I have been having.
I’m thinking of either using about 50 mg prop every other day or about 125 mg of ethanate a week.
What do you think would be a better option, I’m 40 years old and about 205. I’m looking to just lose fat and build some more muscle definition, not looking to get crazy with it.
What are your opinions
Thanks.

I’m in the same boat right now. First thing you should be doing is mapping out your bloods. Go get a full panel done. See where you’re potential issues might be first. Build a diet around your current fitness level using a good BMR calculator. Do lots of research on the proper diet /macro split for your goals. Research proper supplementation and micros. Then build a solid workout program to help shed the fat and tone up.
The kicker is to always prioritize the above ^^^^ part before even thinking about gear. That goes even if you’re on a TRT regimen with Dr oversight. Especially at an older age you run higher risks of cardiovascular issues and/or blood issues. There’s a lot of good info in the forum library bro. Read up you’ll find some good blueprints that have proven results and safe outcomes.
Steroids are NOT for getting back into shape. Get healthy and get into a solid exercise and diet routine. Give it 6-12 months and then re-visit the roid question.
You should really have some blood work done to find out where your baseline is. 125 mg/wk of enan is a TRT dose so if your not pretty low naturally it probably won't raise your levels enough to be noticeable. I would learn where your baseline is and focus on diet.
You could do either the PROP or ENAN, your choice but I would do some blood work to see where your baseline testosterone levels are naturally.
Pre bloods for sure. Have you had them . Do you know where your test is?
What is your diet like?
What are your cycle history?
I really like the idea of starting low and feeling things out. +1 for that.
It we will need a little more Info before any one will cosign.
Bill-
This is a complete side note. I saw you put +1 after a sentence in your first reply. Is that for the karma? I’m not really sure how that works exactly, but if it is I don’t think it registered bc I’m still at same number.
By no means am I complaining or griping or begging for those numbers, I’m just asking about it and I’m so close to getting to a number that seems to be the the magic number to be included in promo’s.
Again, I just wanted to ask about it.
irishwolfhoundn...Your not sure how karma works or is but you know it'll get you into promos? - 1 if I could
If that's your motivation, you will not survive here long.
Not at all is it my motivation, I had a feeling that it would be taken the wrong way. I didn’t realize it was that taboo to ask a question about it.
I didn't quote your question, I quoted your statement.
If you want karma . Be active in the forums. Contribute to the community.
I am going to get the test done next week for sure.
I did two small test cycles in my 20’s one with a little winny and anavar. It was not crazy by any means. It was 250 mg Enanthate for 8 weeks, and like 25-50 mg win for 3 weeks, and 20 mg anavar for 3 weeks.
I did follow both cycles with the clomid nolvadex pct for 3-4 weeks, I believe.
My diet is normal, I’d say. I will say I don’t restrict myself nor do I over indulge in any way either.
Like I said before I just want to tighten up and just hopefully feel better.
Yeah get that blood work done. I know it is hard with all that is going on. Do you know about privatemdlabs?
You can order and pay on line what ever bloods you want. They will tell you where to go to get drawn. No questions nothing. They draw send and your results will post on line in your account.
Or go to your dr and ask about trt. Would be better probably than you doing it your self. It made a world of difference for me when I got leveled out.
Yes, I’ve used private labs before when I did a test cycle and it was really easy.
I actually have an apt with my dr this week and I’m hoping to discuss all of this and really push for bloodwork. I know I have asked in the past and dr’s are really quick to brush it off but I’m not going to be as passive this time around. It’s for sure something I need to address either with their help or not, but I’d rather have their assistance with it. Although, I’m probably more educated in this subject matter than they are, unfortunately.
Hopefully there is an air of safety on this site.
Good looking out for your health. Dr's are a dime a dozen. If they aren't concerned with your well being then go tto another one. Which ever route you take please keep your health in mind.
Does it work in every state. I got off cycle bloods from my doctor but I need on cycle bloods done. They told me I can’t get them don’t because of what state I live in.
Who is " they" ?
Lab corp and quest
How far is the border?
Better yet do the mail in one 333 is talking about
I was going to get bloods done for IGF 1 for the community and myself. The border is 100 miles away
That's a 2 hour drive. Be nice to get out of the house for a while.
I worked 68 hours this week. I need to spend quality time with the family this weekend. I been working like this since corona hit. I got a 8 month old baby and three young kids. Gotta show em a good time. And the wifey misses me.
That's what's up right there . Family first.
It will work out just the way it is supposed to

If your just looking for test results to see how your test is dosed you can order a test with just a finger Frick from home and send it back to them they also have full panel test from a finger print now as well
I have seen those also.
Man I watch my wife check her sugars every morning. All I can think of is why cant we have one of those that checks test and estro.
I'd pay a grand for one if it worked in a few seconds.
That's would be bad ass there's your million dollar shark tank idea
Edit double post
And I hate when i get my finger Fricked.
