Middle aged and starting over

ad

Hello all. I am 51 and i am trying to bounce back in it. In the past 5 years I had to rotator cuff surgeries and I have been down for the last 3 years. Not gonna lie, everything went to shit. I always worked hard and ate right but shot happens. I am starting out obviously with very light weights and going to run 600mg/wk of test E just to get me going again before my first real cycle. If there’s anyone out there that could give me some advice for my situation, it would be greatly appreciated. Oh and my wife is also going to start training with me as well. I was going to get her on some anavar. We both want our beach bodies back. We aren’t that far off but we are definitely not where we want to be.

I did and everything looks good.

Okay thanks for the advice. Makes a lot of sense. I am just eager to get going again but I definitely don’t want to injure myself again. I know it’s a cycle and I covered that I misspoke earlier but I had already hit the send button.

I don’t think you should run 600 mg test to get you going. You could tear up your shoulder again, you need to strengthen your tendons naturally first, the extra strength you’ll get from the test could lead to an injury if your body isn’t already conditioned. Go in and get a good base. Train for 6 months and eat right and then go to a test only cycle that should give you good results since you haven’t cycled in a while. Then you can have your beach bodies ready for next summer.

I’m currently recovering from rotator cuff surgery and have been cycling for a while prior to that. I’m going to strength train for at least 4 months before I cycle again so I don’t tear myself up

Now is not the time to be running a cycle to get back into shape. Get back in shape and then run a cycle and when is 600mg/wk of test not a real cycle.

If I was in your situation and was down for three years I'd ease in to things and pick up training natural for a while. Asses where you are and how your body reacts after so much downtime and a surgery. Also, in my opinion 600mg of test a week is a real cycle already.

I agree and was thinking about going for little while before running anything and yes you are correct about it being a cycle, I sent it and thought about it afterwards. I know I have a lot of work to do and I know there’s no way I can back to where I was, I just want to shred it up again.

Hop into the dieting forums, that is where beach bodies come from, no matter what cycle you do or naught. There is an injury forum too, and plenty of us are nursing old shoulders, worn out or just hurting life-long, but hurting all the same. Welcome to the over 50 setting and planning. As for going anabolic, food is the most anabolic substance you will ever put in your body. (I copy that from someone in here and quote it all the time, so credit goes to someone else, but it always bounces in my head).

Yes, great idea and thank you!
