Saying hello!

ad

Hi, this is Badman1962. Would like to introduce myself and if possible, gets some helpful guidance and insight - I sure could use it.
Age 53, 6"2" 225lbs. I had very low test levels (below 200 based on standard scale).
Doctor prescribed 200mg test cyp, HCG(1000iu's), and 1 mg anastrozole per week. It appeared to help.
Increased to 500mg test cyp. (everything else the same) for the next 3 months. (per doc)/
Size and strength has increased, but no loss of weight. My diet is strict 60-30-10 (Pro-Carb-fat ratio) at would like to improve on lean mass and definition. Body fat% is 22%. I weight lift 5x weekly, limited due to both shoulders, hips, and one knee replaced.

I am grateful for a doc to get me pointed in the right direction, but I think I could do more. I have been very active throughout my life, but time does impact the body I am sorry to say.

I am so respectful and give all of you praise for the sacrifices many have made to this sport and their overall level of fitness. Congrats to everyone.

I would welcome any comments/feedback you may be so kind to offer. If I'm out of line or not saying what needs to be said or I'm doing this process disrespectfully, please give me some guidance. I'm only trying to find my way to where I'd like to be. Thank you so much!

U defo come to the right place. I'm new to this site also. I had so many questions, the answers are here if U look.
Good luck!

Thanks. You can see I started with test cyp, but don't know what to do next with my cycling. Any thoughts or suggestions on what to do or where to go for help? Thanks again.

Hey bruva.
Test is always a good starting place. I don't know your previous history. But if this is your 1st cycle, your in a good place. As long as U keep nutrition and training in check, should get some great results.

Thanks, Keez.
I wanted to change up my training a bit. Where on the site would you recommend I look for other people's training plans?

Also, Madman suggested I put in a separate forum with all my history with test cycles, nutrition, and blood results. Maybe add my training routine a little bit as well. He thought this would allow people to understand me better and what I am aiming for as a goal. People could give better feedback.
I will let you know when it's post, ok?

Any other thoughts you have, I'm all ears.

Hey bruva, there's a forum for training and routine in the community.
Also Madman is right to tell U, start a new thread. I was also going to suggest the same thing.
There is a separate forum for virtually every genre. If U post each question U have individually, you'll get a more in depth answer.
Fr request me if U have anymore to ask.

Welcome to Eroids.
Use the magnifying glass up top to navigate yourself through the website you can basically find any information that you're looking for here regarding diet nutrition training etc.

Thanks for the reply. I will search through the site - a lot of good info. Madman, as far as what to do for adjustments to my test use and/or other additional things to perhaps try and see how I respond - any thoughts or where I should look? For example, I've been on test cyp for awhile (see my original post) and other related treatment, but what steps do I take now. Like increase test cyp to 650-700/week, or try test eth, or maybe something else. I reviewed some the the others on the site and their cycles and I'm even more uncertain which steps to take next. There are many valid ways to advance in the use of test products or other related options. I just don't have the experience like you do. I hope I make some sense.

Thanks, bigmurph. I'll start reading this week.

Best way to go about this is post a new forum on exactly what you're trying to accomplish.

Include your full stats, cycle history, diet, cycle proposal and goals for this cycle. That way some of the more advanced members than myself can chime in and help out.

Welcome to the forums this is a really great place to learn. What kind of carbs are you eating and when are you eating them? If you haven't already find what your calories needed for the day is and then look at what your eating and adjust it so your around 300-500 under what you need for the day. I would look into carb cycling, this is the best way to gain a little size and strength while your shedding the fat. Just what worked best for me. Hope this helps a bit and welcome again!
