I’m Brad and live in Chicago. I’m a male, 47.5 years old and found this site while researching for a year to become more knowledgeable about TRT. I’ve been on TRT since 2005, using mostly topical gels. In October I switched to injections at my doctor’s office only and started to look for a way to augment those with injections at home to save time and visits.
I bike a lot, generally 100-200 miles a week for fitness and lift iron, man.
My injection schedule is 300mg every two weeks, adding Androgel the last 5-6 days of each two week period. That has kept my testosterone levels from the rollercoaster ups and downs some experience. I also add Androgel on days where I bike exceptionally long distances.
My goals are to keep up on my bike with thirty seven year olds and look & be more fit than others my age.
I also decided to go underground to add an AI (anastrozole) and a low dose of deca to my TRT schedule. Sadly, my doctor isn’t on the AI bandwagon but within two days of starting it, I can tell I’ve needed it to balance out the testosterone / E2 levels.
I got into bodybuilding in high school, working out at Turner’s Gym in Saint Louis. Google image search “George Turner bodybuilder.” I was 125lbs when I joined and 155lbs by the summer of my 17th year, six months later. The first thing George Turner ever said to me was “you have a thread hanging off your shirt, I can fix that. Oh wait… that’s your ARM, I can fix that too!”
I joined this site because many of the threads and discussions on here are generally informative by people who have learned from doing, and for the most part, everyone isn’t terribly snarky. Just enough.
