Ya super weird, since I switched to one of the approved sources here ( about a week ago) I legit feel a ton better more to when I first started.
There a couple great options in Canada for blood tests.About me:
Good day all, first time ever doing something like this, felt fairly comfortable with the Evolutionary family here and I thought it would be beneficial to share my journey and collaborate with you all on my journey as I seek fitness and health advice.
Stats/History
Started my TRT journey roughly a year ago now, and I had some ups and downs at the start, I finally got a few things dialed and had my E2 under control with the help of some primo which seemed to work well for me and managed my E2 ( I have never taken any AI) and started to really shed some pounds. I blew my MCL out in hockey, which caused a minor setback. With recovery exercises and some peptides I bounced back rather quickly. Also I went through a phase with a shitty UGL supplier and seemed to really mess with my test levels and was very inconsistent and got some pretty bad PIP in some cases.
Stats
• Age - 36
• Height - 6'1"
• Weight - 245lbs / 113kg
Supplements / Dosage
• Testosterone Cypionate

Bloodwork:
Taken November 15th 2024 I will update very soon. It is kind of shit to get constant bloods in Canada.. open for suggestion on that. Test free is not an option on my bloodwork sheet for example.
• Testosterone Total = 21.6nmol/L or 622ng/ml
• Estradiol 109 pmol/L or 29 pg/ml
• TSH = 6.50 miU/L
• CBC and Diff- I recently donated so this should be lower now - CBC and Diff Link
• Lipids - Lipids Link
Training / Cardio
I recently just finished a PPL program, one of Ryan Humistons. I really enjoyed it and love the data he puts into the programs.
currently I am doing a bro split, as I am hard on myself and feel somewhat too overweight and want to utilize more cardio.
6 days a week training the exercises and body parts often switch days but here is an idea.
Monday- Cardio: Core usually end up doing 45-50 minutes of cardio
Tuesday - Chest: I end up doing about 4 exercises then 20 min of cardio
Wed- Back: Again about 4 exercises depending on time then 20 min cardio
Thursday- Legs: Same as above
Friday: Arms Same
Sat: Shoulders- Same
Sunday- Rest
Diet
Monday-Friday
I am pretty damn consistent with diet, and feel I do not eat enough. The weekend I cook with my wife and we generally keep these meals pretty damn healthy, although I do eat more on these meals.
Meal 1:
• 4 eggs with 1/3 cup egg whites
• 1 deer or elk sausage
• 1/4 cup almond or brasil nuts
• 1 protein bar
• Meal 2:
• Shake after gym
○ 2 scoops protein powder
○ 1/2 cup mixed frozen berry's
○ 1 cup of soy milk
• Meal 3:
• This varies but here are some examples
○ Option #1 - 1/2 pound ground beef with mixed veg, rice and some yam
○ Option #2 - 1/2 pound ground beef with chickpea pasta and veg
○ Option #3 - Chicken breast with vegetables and yam or rice
○ Option #4 - Steak with yams and side salad
Goals / Questions
I get very down on myself and my physique at times, as it seems I fluctuate weight a lot and I get hyper focused on the number that on the scale when all my clothes and my appearance seems to stay the same.
I would like to loose maybe 20 pounds
Should I be looking at an AI ? Or maybe running some primo again? My E2 in my last bloods seems within range but I feel a bit bloated and down on myself again... This time last year I was in better shape 5 months after I started TRT... Which makes me upset and confused. I know it was just less fat.. As I do carry a lot more muscle now.
Love this community, thanks for taking the time to read my log! I will try to update as frequent as possible
