Here is the problem i am a builder work hard 8-10 hour days lifting heavy blocks. cills. beams and all the other stuff that goes with my job then go to the gym 3-5 times a week in pretty good shape but my body is sore all the time with work and training never seems to get time to recover even with time of the gym not much difference maybe because i am getting older who knows was thinking about doing minimum amount of test just to give me the edge to start feeling good again and hopefully take away the sorness.

That's not really a good reason to start a cycle, especially at your age. Running testosterone shuts down your natural production competely and then you have to recover afterwards which is hard at your age. Have you had your bloodwork done to see where all your levels are at to make sure you are not deficient?

I agree with Rick. You may be in need for TRT, but IMO this isn't a reason to be running a cycle.

 

[Stateofmind]

Get your test levels checked. If you are low naturally, then I say why the fuck not run TRT. Lots of talk about shutting you down definitely applies to younger males, but at 50+ I see no reason not to feel normal again. Assuming you have low T which many older men do.

you need to have a full blood panel done bro... you cant just start using test "just because"... thats not how it works... what are your stats? age/height/weight/body fat?

here is a link to the blood test you need... http://www.privatemdlabs.com/lp/Female_Hormone_Testing.php

It would still be a great idea to get everything checked. You can't really go by feel to insure that everything is where it needs to be.

There are a lot of options for you to help aid recovery. One of those things is sarms which are EXCELLENT for healing and recovery. They also don't have the shutdown and side effects of steroids.

Mk677 would be a great option for you to help enhance recovery. It enhances your natural GH output to give you better body composition, sleep, recovery, healing etc and your GH levels drop a lot as you age. You can run it long term without it affecting your test levels. The best quality of mk677 you can find is at www.sarmsx.com and that's the in,y source I would trust as there are so many fakes out there

Run it at 25mg per day dosed in the am, and it is best ran long term for a year or more

Thanks bro.

 

[RickRock]

Thanks bro.

Anytime brother. If you have any other questions feel free to ask

You can get some awesome gains and recover going with sarms, and not have to worry about shutdown.
