    Help Body fat % any guesses

    Mid fifties is the perfect time. I got on at 62 and wish I had a little earlier. I started with prohormones in my mid fifties, and the gains didn’t last post cycle. The joints tend to go after age 60. You can still hang on to muscle and even add a bit, but you really need heavy compound lifts...

    Vascularity in the abdominals is a definite indicator of being under 10. Awesome work. You inspire me to cut out a few more carbs today.

    Muscle on TRT

    Your story is similar to mine, except I never stop working out in some way. For the past three years I have been training exclusively with resistance bands and an old schwinn air dyne. Still making progress and maintaining muscle at age 64. I did three cycles of dymethezine in my late 50s and...

    Muscle on TRT

    Muscle will come, but if “just takingTRT” means without working out hard, forget it. It really doesn’t work that way. Not magic, just gives you a fighting chance to put on muscle if you are willing to work. Most guys who complain that the effects of TRT wear off aren’t putting in enough work...

    Aging Gracefully

    Don’t know the guy who wrote the post, but it sounds like a guy who has just gotten injured and is feeling down. I’m 64, been at this since 1967. Many injuries from football in college, running marathons in the 70s, 26 years of karate training( before it got turned into little league for...

    Ultimate Anti-Aging Supp - C60 in Olive Oil

    Good post. Save your money. I’ve been at this game for over 50 years, seen this type of slick advertising many times. It used to be a hot woman, usually Joe Weider’s wife, and some jacked guy. Today it’s rat studies and pseudo research. Give it a whirl. Maybe the placebo effect will be worth...

    Lost my job and insurance. Had to cold turkey stop TRT. Advice?

    Agree. Get test cypionate, take your normal dose, maybe weekly or twice a week if you divide it up, and take control of what you can. Pay out of pocket for bloods and labs every six months. There are online vendors of bloods and labs that would be affordable. There are probably a few ancillary...

    Aging well?

    Sorry Spurfy. It’s he word guarantees that’s the issue. You still stand by the word “guarantees”?

    Aging well?

    No need to be a dick about it guy. I have heard of it, but the key word in all these studies is “potentially.” I agree with that premise. It is very naive and shows wishful thinking to ignore the word potentially. I wish you were right. I understand you are trying to drum up customers for your...

    Aging well?

    Been following this. While the water fast is without doubt very beneficial, there are no guarantees that it will prevent cancer. Chances are that anyone who has the persistence to do such a fast will be leading a lifestyle that is cancer preventing and have less of a chance of avoiding cancer...

    Do my test readings make me a candidate for TRT?

    You are correct. Thanks. I pin every 7days so I don’t get any noticeable dip in how I feel.

    Anyone try CBD for pain?

    Yes, I remember norml. I thought you were saying that Carter was going to, and that he said he would. I remember Carte coming to my college early in the campaign season. He spoke before about 50 students. I could have met him in person, but decided to party instead. Got high way to often in...

    Do my test readings make me a candidate for TRT?

    Never been on creams, but I hear, anecdotally, that they aren’t as effective, are messy and inconsistent. A lot of guys don’t want to pin, but it’s not a big deal. I pin 120 mg of testosterone cypionate on Wednesday evenings. I notice no low point or feelings at the trough, as cypionate has a...

    My shoulders suck!

    Agree, with the exception of barbell press. Dumbell press with palms facing each other is less stressful, as you are not locked in to a position by the bar. Joe DeFranco has a great complex that is pretty much what old school advocates. You tube “Joe DeFranco shoulder shocker.” Old school...

    My shoulders suck!

    Good post. Time under tension and bands have been my go to since rotator surgery in 2015. Shoulders are always going to be an issue for anyone ho has trained over a few years. I’ve been working at this since 1967 and have had a lot of issues over the years. John Meadows, who writes for TNation...

    HEMATOCRIT UPDATE WTF

    Agree here. If you are not fit and not working out then, of course there may be a need to donate blood. And BP should always be considered. With a lot of this research the issue is that correlation does not mean causation. Naturally, because I go to Morgantaler’s clinic, I read what he has...

    HEMATOCRIT UPDATE WTF

    Your numbers are fine. You, and others are way over reacting. There are many flawed studies that Morgantaler has exposed due to flawed research. Most of the studies that link TRT to heart attack’s were done with unhealthy men over age 65. Of course they were prone to heart attacks.

    HEMATOCRIT UPDATE WTF

    Dr John Crisler did a podcast with Jay Campbell and stated he also thinks it it is not needed. My clinic in Boston is Dr. Abraham Morgantaler’s clinic and I met with him and asked him about this. He said he wouldn’t worry about it until HCT was at 55,and even then he would look at the individual...

    Anyone try CBD for pain?

    I was 22 years old that year, smoked a lot of pot every day, and I don’t remember this. Maybe you’re incorrect in this? Or, maybe I was stoned and I missed it.
