hey everyone. finally joined here because i need some guidance/advice
a little background: i'm 34, a former D1 athlete turned competitive weightlifter, now a dad-bod enthusiast
i'm 5'9", used to walk around and compete at 195 and under 10% BF (yes, really), but now that i'm not competing/training as much (read: at all) and i'm chasing a toddler around, i'm around 225.
in an attempt to get myself back to fighting weight, i started taking HGH and then started TRT.
i've been on HGH since may. i take 2iu in the morning and at night. i started TRT in july and i'm on .6ml weekly, along with anastrozole.
along with starting both, i've been eating better and getting back into the gym because i know supplements won't get me back on their own.
now for the part where i'm confused: i haven't lost any weight. at all. i'm actually fluctuating between 225-228 most days. i am, however, back into size 33 pants and i'm not busting the seams on large t shirts anymore. so i guess i'd say body comp has gotten slightly better, although i've developed mild gyno in my right tiddie.
what am i doing wrong? is this simply a case of me not training enough to see the results i want? am i on the wrong stuff? anything i can do about the gyno?
i know that's a lot of questions, but i figured i'd get it all out there. if clarification on anything is needed, please let me know. i'm here to learn and figure this out. thanks. mods, if this is in the wrong spot, i apologize. feel free to move me if necessary.
