Two months of only running Big D's Test C for my hormone replacement therapy. Up 30 pounds now. Workouts only include swimming and 30 push-ups every day. Hope that my doc will allow me to get back into the gym soon!

Wow bro I just read ur reviews and that shit is crazy I'm glad to see ur on a better road one to success is what it sounds like. keep ur head up bro and doin what works I'm glad ur doing and feeling so Much better then what u was keep It up bro
bigboy151mxBuddy if you can swim and do 30 push ups don't be afraid to lift. Just go light no need to push heavy weight. I definitely don't agree with your doc....maybe you should get a second opinion or just say fuck it and train. Best of luck with your ccondition and future training
Testedsaying fuck it is not smart. Getting second opinion maybe but there is a reason the doctor does not want him to lift.
Dr. C? If that is you friend request me...I received the test p & e today.
If you are not Dr. C, thank you for commenting!
Thank you! Second opinions are hard to come by where I live, and I am 6 hours from my current endo. The good news..he is aggressive in treatment... the bad..he thinks a strong wind will snap me in two. He is coming around!
bigboy151mxI'm no doctor by anymeans but you look plenty healthy enough to take some 20 lb dumbbells and do curls,presses,squats etc. The biggest question is do YOU feel like you can do it? No-one knows your body better than you! So if you feel up to it train. And it probably wouldn't hurt to blast for a little bit instead of hrt style.
I do. After only a year of treatment I could understand holding off...but I feel better now than I ever have. The hardest part will be starting over from the beginning. After competitive lifting in high school and some college...the 20 pound dumbbells depress me. However. ..If I ever want to hear the 45s bang together again I need to start low and slow
this shit is crazy man, i read all about it in your review. good luck, hopefully you get the green light soon.
Thank you Dude! Greatly appreciated!
Swimming and 30 push ups and you got 30 pounds? Hmmm
Over a long period of time. Prior to my diagnosis and eventual treatment I was nothing more than skeleton and skin.
why would your doc advise against going to the gym?
It is a long story, but for reasons that cannot yet be explained, my body stopped naturally producing testosterone about ten years ago resulting in a significant loss of muscle. He was/is concerned that if I start lifting (heavy) my body will not be ready to handle the stress and break (for lack of a better term). After HRT started to show promise, I was restricted to swimming to help rebuild muscle mass, then body weight routines with therabands....it has been nearly two years and I have the yellow light to use free weights. It has been a slow process to say the least.
Damn brother!! Good to have you here!! Your in the right place!! I +2 you aswell
Thank you SuperMax. It is good to be had!
