I am 52, suffer from low-t, and just started self-injection therapy for the second time in three years. The first time around lasted six months and I really didn't see results. Felt a little better, but honestly just went through the motions after learning from my doc how to self inject. I work on the water and on the beach and I am fairly active, but have no work-out (gym) experience. Retired from the Army, so I am very familiar with PT, but not weight training.(never felt I needed it as my MOS was physically demanding and time consuming). Anyway, was injured at work a few months ago and only recently feel well enough to begin a PT program. I just had fresh bloodwork done two days ago and I am awaiting the results(although I know my t is low, I will soon find out how low). I am hoping the t-therapy will be more effective this time around and plan to apply more effort into my fitness, health and body image. I am not looking to get huge, just want to improve my definition, add some muscle mass, and feel healthy again.
I joined this site to (a) get better informed (b) find informational and product sources and (c)hopefully find some motivation through fellowship of like-minded individuals.
I didn't take the first round of t therapy as seriously as I should have. I now feel like a really need to, but I am concerned that the t injections alone will not provide the results I am looking for. Hence the search for sources on supplements, workout programs, other anabolics, etc....Upon first glance at the net, I have been overwhelmed at all the crap out there and was hoping to find some knowledge from real people living the life out there and getting results. I am a blank slate. Starting from scratch with some old gear and a new perspectives. Any direction/advice would be appreciated. thnx
 
***************** has tons of workout programs but personally I use two apps fitbod which allows you to track your reps and weight select exercises by muscle group and builds workouts based on fresh muscle groups &Full fitness another app does the same comes with a few programs too. They’re great for switching things up and finding alternatives when a certain movement doesn’t feel right. Hope this helps
 
I have to concur that there are ton of great programs online for every goal, be it hypertrophy, definition, or raw strength. As far as anabolics, I wouldn't advise anything other than your doctor prescribed TRT (which you should stick to religiously), until you have a lot of time training first.
 
Thanks! Appreciate the response.

Thanks. Seems like sound advice.

What about legit energy supplements? I have tried some pre-workout stuff in attempt to avoid too much caffeine/sugar but the results were short-lived and it seemed like I built up a quick tolerance. I have seen some stuff at retail shops but it seemed pricey to make an uninformed risk on possibly bunk product. Any tips?
 
Creatine is a nice add to any stack that you can take perpetually without side effects.
 
Yeah. A bud recommended creatine. Just picked up some powdered creatine by DNA Pharma. Plan on incorporating that with a higher protein/low carb diet along with a sensible workout program(trying to figure that out now). Got my test (test cyprionate 250mg) from Performance Pharm. Injecting 1/2 cc week (this was my last dosage). Wondering if that is enough to see results. I understand the need for patience and commitment, but didn't see results last time at that pace. As I said, I am returning to the doc next week and will heed his advice. Just wondering if I should seek advice from a sports physician or just adhere to the current program and be patient. I know results don't come immediately and as I said, I want to do this right. But I also don't want to waste time and assets.
 
Thanks. I can definitely see why your doctor would want you on TRT. If you wanted, you can supplement boron to help tie up more SHBG and allow a small bump to free test.
 
Look into Mark Riptoes Starting Strength.

All you need is a Olympic barbell with 8, 45lb, 2, 35lb, 2 25lb, 2 10lb, 2 5lb, 2, 2.5lb plates, flat bench and a power rack. With 1.5 hours, 3 days a week.

You can buy the book or better yet download the app you'll be light years ahead of anything else.
