Hi guys,
I went to my doctor 6 months ago to get a routine check up. I was experiencing low energy, low libido and some loss of muscle mass ( though I worked out 4-5 days a week). He did a complete blood test and unknown to me at the time had my testosterone checked as well. The results came back and I was told my Total Test was 258ng/dl and my free Test was 3.7pg/ml. I was shocked at first because I never even considered the possibility of having low t. I am 36 now and I guess a part of me still thinks im in my 20's and will live forever. He put me on Test C. 200mg EOW and by reading threads on various sites may go ahead and change to 100mg EW to avoid peaks and valleys. Follow up blood work is in 3 weeks and again 3 months later.
My stats 36yo, 5'10, 175, 12%bf, with an understanding of nutrition, macros and the law of thermodynamics. I've been working out for 2 years and primarily do heavy compound lifting, though my recovery time was horrible. I originally thought I was overtraining, but now Im thinking my body simply didn't have Test to recover properly. My lifts and gains have plateaued. I have tried deloading and periodization, but still hit the same plateau. I am hoping my return to the "normal test" range will help, but from what I read, probably not in terms of the gains I am hoping for.
I have been following SARMS- thanks Dylan Gemelli- and will be planning to add them here in the new future. Also, after my 2nd follow up blood test am planning on adding in some additional Test C. and AI to my regimen. New to all this and the site so mainly reading and learning so not to ask repetitive questions!
