Young guys on TRT... help please

ad

I'm 27, began juicing at 17 (stupid, i know). Anyways, I used a lot of stuff for a long time. So, i was diagnosed with hypogonadism, and prescribed 400 mg Cyp EOW.

What I'm trying to find out, is..... when a guy is on TRT, are his receptors being weakened? I still do want to blast & cruise.

Obviously, when we cycle bodybuilding doses of AAS, our receptors take a hit. But, when we are on lower doses of TRT, does this still happen? When I try PCT, nothing happens. So is there a way for me to "rejuvinate" my receptors, without coming cold turkey and crashing?

...Additional info....
A typical "cycle" of AAS for me, is something like: 750 Test E + 600 Deca. Or.... 750 Test C + 500 EQ....
I don't run crazy big/heavy gear. No orals, No trenn, etc.

Thanks guys..

receptor down regulation is a myth. androgens cause receptor upregulation not the other way around. so its not a matter of "i need a higher dose to see gains" its a matter of now my receptors can handle uptaking more hormones than before, thats why you should up the dose after cruising because that extra bit of mg will be utilized better ecause now your body can handle the extra dose.

for example if someone who never used AAS before started off at +1g of test they would get, most likely, a plethora of side effects because their body cannot simply utlize all those hormones so they are better off taking half as much. fresh receptors can only handle so much. after cruising or more experience with AAS your receptors are upregulated so they can then take in and utilize that +1g of test easily.

yes. All i'm trying to figure out is.. if one is using TRT doses while "cruising", will his receptors be weak when he goes to "blast"?

Some people blast & cruise, while others cycle on and off. Obviously, those who cycle all the way off will "rejuvenate" their AAS receptors. But, is it possible to "rejuvenate" these receptors while cruising on HRT doses of Test?

That's some deep science shit and a good question for the pros. If you read books put out by bodybuilders most of them say it takes more and more and more gear to get bigger and is usually related to the receptors getting clogged. I've been on TRT for two years now at 180 mg Per week and I still make excellent gains blasting at 500 mg per week. Every body is different and will respond differently to chemicals. If you were to pin Pharma grade test at 200 mg every week for years straight and had bi- monthly blood tests done that showed the same test level each time then that would prove your receptors are not getting clogged. If they decrease over time that would prove they are getting clogged. Like I said just my opinion and I would listen to a pro if he chirps in
