Eggs...probably average 6 per week. I eat a lot of local fish.
At 52 yrs old I go all out when lifting, mtb/road cycling, dirt bike riding, whatever. WTF is there to save for at this age? Go hard and deal with the aftermath tomorrow.
This stuff seems to help some with natural testo production according to studies. I’m undecided:
The Shop
Step it up your amouth of lipids is a good thing, this is a good testo booster.
I eat 4 whole eggs by...day !
Your natural production has not started back up yet. The HCG is taken from pregnant women's piss and it will kick start your nads right back up doing 1cc every other day for a week or 2.
I have been on HRT for +20 years now. I cycle off for 2-3 months a year to keep my testies functioning and not looking raisin like and yes, you feel like shit for a while and you wake up at 4AM unable to sleep,you will be moody like a woman about to start her period and just not feel content, no dreams and no morning erections to crack diamonds with.
The main benefit is you are doing blood work every 3-6 months so there is a good chance you will find something early if something was to present.
It is a good idea to donate blood once a month to keep your hemocrit levels down as it can cause a stroke to be pumping thick blood with too many red blood cells.
Every man should have their T levels checked after 35 years old. It is only a $70 dollar test and you might be surprised and check available testosterone and estrogen, progesterone, not just your T levels because if you are microwaving food, drinking from plastic bottles, ETC, your estrogen levels are probably high and that will bind the testosterone from use.
This is a good topic and the previous poster is also very knowledgeable.
Your mileage may vary.
I'm close to 57 yrs old. I'm one of the few people I know who has had titanium bracket and screws and a small titanium disc with holes in it between my C4-C5 vertebrae and some S1-S2 or something on my back as well. This was a fusion surgery with some hardware. I was riding moto 4 1/2 months later.
I've had both left and right full reconstruction of bicep, labrum and rotator cuff (both shoulders)
After these 2 surgeries, back to moto in 6 1/2 months. Went to ONE rehabilitation therapy session for both shoulders total. Yes, ONE. I rehabbed both my shoulders on my own. Had 100% full range of motion within 9 weeks. My surgeon commented he had never seen my range of motion that quickly, and never believed I could do it on my own on my first shoulder, but did on my 2nd. Since this, I have actually instructed some patients on what I did for at home rehab.
December 21st, of 2021, full knee replacement of right knee. Not knee repair (Had reconstruction with cadaver PCL ligament replacement in 2006) but a knee replacement. I was back to moto on March 26th, 2022. 4 months later.
Went to 4 rehabilitation sessions only. Did the rest of my entire recovery rehabilitation on my own.
I ride moto as much as my busy schedule allows. Typically 25-26 times per year. I push hard when riding, clear 90% of the jumps at the tracks I frequent in the North Texas area.
I see my wifes Gyno for my TRT. He's been doing it for over 20 years. He does 100's of women patients of his, as well as many male patients for this. He does work with many bodybuilders.
I do the Pellet therapy. I keep my levels around 800-900. If your an older vet rider, have had some injuries to your body, and want to continue moto. Which I love so much, I don't know if I can ever quit.
This is a huge benefit for me.
I heal very fast, but I don't really eat right, nor do I really exercise much.
It works well for me. I know it benefits my. If you older guys have questions on how I continue to ride after my surgeries, and how I rehabbed myself, ask away

But I am finding out a lot of men over 50 been taking Testosterone. I'm specifically interested in preventing dementia in my later years which studies showing this is a big help.
In addition to causing physical changes, having low levels of testosterone can affect you on an emotional level. The condition can lead to feelings of sadness or depression. Some people have trouble with memory and concentration and experience lowered motivation and self-confidence.
#1 If you can buy it over the counter, it won't do anything significant.
#2 You will get the best results if you do ALL you can naturally. When you plateau THEN you hit the PEDs. This means you work your ass of for YEARS AND YEARS...then go enhanced. You need to hit the wall over and over before you hit the needle. If you just jump to the needle and do not know how to eat and train, you are just wasting good juice. You do not really know how to train till you truly try every different way of training, and still are stuck at a plateau.
#3 You had better be OK with needles. Stay away from larger amounts of orals. They are Alpha-Alkylated and hard on the liver. As some mentioned...there are new alternatives to needles...such as long release Test pellets. But the idea is the same.
#4 Stay with the basics...Testosterone and HGH for muscle recovery, strength, and fat loss. HGH is $ though.
#4a Test compounds/pellets can be "esterized", so they release over time after injection. The most common/best Test injection compound is Sustanon, which is a blend of 4 different esters that give a good even release over a long time periods. One shot per week of Sust will give you a smooth even test boost.
#4b HGH can not be esterized, so you need to inject way more often. Serious users inject daily.
#5 You will not put on dramatic amounts of muscle mass unless you consume the required calories to build muscle mass (consistent caloric surplus). If you put down say 5,000-6,000 calories a day, and know how to train and recover, the results from even a moderate "starter cycle" can be mind blowing. We are talking 30#+ of muscle mass...and keeping 20-25# after you come off. So your caloric intake should be based on your goals.
#6 If you also want to strongly boost your aerobic capacity, things get more sketchy. Now you are talking blood doping or EPO. While you can find "TRT docs" on every corner to help you with Test and HGH regimes, you will be more on your own with regards to boosting aerobic capacity with PEDs. I have no experience with this stuff. Seems MUCH more risky than hormonal boosting. You are directly boosting red blood cell levels in a way that bypasses your bodies normal checks and balances. Injecting "too much" test will not kill you. Injection "too much" EPO can.
With regards to HGH and Test, it is comical that 25 years ago you were a criminal for even talking about this. But as soon as MDs started to recognize there were millions of flabby middle aged men with fat wallets looking for a boost, suddenly it became AOK. Once Docs realized they could make big money, everything changed. I know one orthopedic surgeon who used to be this skinny gym rat with no clue how to work out. He had this great big bushy head of curly hair. Then he "discovered" TRT, and today is he 40# heavier, bald as a cue ball, jacked, and is now a TRT Doc...no more surgery. Better money pushing juice.
"Testosterone replacement therapy" and "steroids" are THE EXACT SAME THING. Same compounds, same needles, same side effects. Also, many in the "recreational steroid using community" still know as much or more than many docs. Medicine after all is highly empirical, and there were hundreds of thousands of serious users (many of them very smart) for decades while the mainstream medical position was that steroids offered "no competitive advantage".
Also, one thing that many do not know, even most Docs, is that at least as far as AAS/Test/etc goes, you do not need to go on full time for the rest of your life. Most TRT regimes today do exactly that, which I am not so sure is a good idea. When you go on full time forever, it causes you own hormone production to cease. The longer you stay on for, the more your natural hormone system shut down. I believe the safer approach is to cycle on and off...say 1-2 cycles per year if you want to stay on long term.
Personally, I did ONE cycle ever in my life. The results were insane.
12 Weeks
500 mg/week Sustanon 250
200 mg/week Equipoise (Boldenone undecylenate)
DBol - can't remember dosage - for first two weeks for a quick boost while the other levels were coming up.)
Arimidex when coming off to re-start natural test production
I went from a very solid 178# to 218# in 12 weeks while eating 5000-6000 Cals clean 6 days out of 7 per week day. No joke. Eating that much is damned HARD. I stabilized long term at 205-208#. I had to buy a whole new wardrobe. I kept working out hard for many many years, and kept that weight and strength. Got my BF down pretty low at one point...and was 195 with the same strength and muscle mass. This is a secret of most (all) elite game playing athletes. They have ALL done a cycle or two. And because they are experts in training or diet (or they can hire people who are), they get massive gains out of these one or two cycles..and they keep almost all of those gains their whole careers because they keep on training right. Just because you pass a drug test now...does not mean you are "natural". You can do a cycle or two, and never do it again, and get to a performance level you never ever would have been able to achieve "naturally". But you can claim you are clean, and no one can ever prove otherwise. I was stuck at 175#-180# for 3 years...and then went to 218# in 3 months, and kept most of it.
My issue eventually became that my body simply was not built to handle that much muscle mass. I was inflexible, bound up, developed tendonitis, even tore a large section of my vastus lateralis doing squats... I got frustrated with all the injuries and pain, and eventually went to far the other way. I stopped working out, I maintained a lot of the mass...but got softer than I care to admit.
Pit Row
Test is fabulous. Aromatization was always an issue when you started pushing levels. The singular fountain of youth. Made for a great base to cycles because of the sexual bonus.
Tren was the King though. Rage, strength, endurance, but missing a bit of the hump anything factor. Converting fina kits was so easy that I basically paid rent from converting fina in college.
Always thought of orals as novelty, could get some huge strength, but massive bloating and blood pressure.
Pretty much didnt come off for years at a time. Seemed like there was no point to when following a blast and cruise protocol.
After a decade off and dealing with nagging injuries, poor recovery times, Ive been looking into TRT and sarms. Hard to trust some of the sarms companies and quality.
Did RAD140 for a month, 30mg ed, thought I maybe noticed something right away, but I think it was probably placebo effect. Shady supplement store here had RAD150 as well. Immediately went into 2 months of RAD150 and it reminded me of a discount Tren. Fraction of the strength, fraction of the sides, all the rage (I was rage emailing the school board like 3 days into it). No real increase in sex drive. Just kind of felt like the protein I was eating was actually going to repairing and recovering muscle. I did start to feel like I was starting to suppress natural production after 6 weeks but it wasnt bad and I seemed to come back very fast.
Some of the SARMs are not actually sarms but seem promising too. the RAD150 I thought actually worked was from Matrix Labs, I see they have a stack called Shr3d that Id like to try. Looks like it could be a promising riding season performance and recovery stack.
Someone said nothing over the counter works for Test., that might be true for someone with perfect nutrition, hydration, exercise and sleep, but it's possible that a significant test improvement can result from getting those optimized.
While not anti-trt per say, I'd much rather try to fix my body's issues first rather than need trt for life once starting.
I tried hgh but my feet/ankles swelled up from water retention so stopped. Haven't tried again as need to research that side effect a bit further....
You don’t typically take one compound without taking a test base..and then an AI is needed to combat gyno..and then an ovulation stimulate your restart natural test production for post-cycle therapy
