Anyone here take Shilajit? For those who are unfamiliar it's a kind of plant/mineral blend that is an ancient tonic in Ayurvedic medicine. It's supposed to help with energy, mitochondrial function, and hormonal balance. In two supp company sponsored studies it showed to increase testosterone...
Sure... eating big is like lifting big... it can be hard but you gotta force yourself through it if you want to force your body to change from where it wants to be. But you have to want it or it ain't gonna happen.
I was a hardgainer especially when younger too. My bulking diet was 6-7,000...
That guy is selling something by dissing BCAAs (Try my product instead, Legion!), but I have recently switched off daily BCAAs (PWO only) and am going to be spending my money on higher protein (350g/day) intake.
I do wonder how high dose leucine only (like 20g/day or so) would work.
Are those 1 rep maxes or for reps? Because those are very good numbers. I would think with the right diet you should be gaining. Liquids are a good way to get those calories without dealing with whole foods.
I remember when I was younger and bulking I actually threw up once from trying to get...
I don't mean this in a rude way but that diet is an absolute joke as a bulking diet or even as a bodybuilding diet (lacking protein).
My suggestion:
1. Up your protein to 300g per day. It's ok to aim for around 100-150g from whole food (i.e., 1 lbs chicken breast = 100g) and 150-200 from...
Yes, go ahead and stop, shorter is better in terms of suppression/sides etc. Make sure you PCT correctly with clomid which you can get on research chem sites.
Also, you need to learn how to make your body grow naturally so that you can grow even more on gear, and then maintain those gains...
Well, I thought I would bump this since I did get bloodwork recently.
When I wrote this thread I was taking 5-10mg+ of the MK-4 formulation, which is a fairly high dose. I did feel better on it as mentioned.
Prior to getting bloodwork this March, I was taking a multivitamin which INCLUDED...
Well, I have to take the time to do some research on it but I'm talking about lipid changes, hematocrit/hemoglobin, stroke risk, and then what the longer term studies show about long term health issues.
I'm going to try clomid for now but I agree with Joe ultimately I will be going on TRT as I'm not sure clomid is viable for years or safer than TRT long term. I'll have to research the sides more and see what I can do to minimize them.
At this point though I've decided I won't be going off...
I appreciate it. However, I have low T that just does not respond to the typical purported "t-booster" approaches.
As an example, when my levels were measured at 369 ng/dl this March (9am), I was about 210 at 11-12% bodyfat measured by caliper. Plenty lean. I was doing the following at the...
BTW, I meant did you have your levels checked while on clomid at 12.5mg ED? I'm trying to get a sense of where that much clomid would put your T levels
Mine are in the 300s too and I have hypogonadism. 300s are not normal if you're having symptoms (also it's very near the lower limit threshold for ALL age groups including 80+ men). If you have used AAS/Prohormones you may have suppressed your natural levels which is also possibly different from...
I agree. Since 2015 I have been actively trying to raise my testosterone levels, knowing I had the AAS induced low test. I've tried among the following for the past 2 years:
-Longjack 100:1 (multiple brands), D-Aspartic Acid, ZMA, KSM-66, Tocotrienols (i.e., Toco-8 like product), probiotics...
