Low t people who use it say it’s life changing. One of the best decisions you can make if you have low test

Not life changing but probably worth it. Injecting twice a week gets old.

9 years now for me.

not anymore more risk for anything than what you already had a predisposition for

you arent running 3 grams of testosterone - youre replacing what your body produced once upon a time and optimizing it

Depends on your natural T levels and the levels you're going to be balanced out at. Just being at 800-1000 ng/dl is a great level and you can stay healthy.

Its not gonna be like your juicing juicing though.

Because being on the high natural side is healthier then being full super human, with less side effects and virtually no real health risks.

Not a therapeutic dose if done properly.

Every 6 days works fine for me. Requires more math and injection day is always changing but its more bearable then twice per week and more stable then every 7 days.


Unless your running really low or really high doses I'd go every 5 or 6 days.

Probably better than just binge drinking and doing drugs for years on end, but then again the people who chase aesthetics tend to party also and use other stuff for mood enhancement - go figure.

I run HCG with my TRT regimen. Balls don’t shrink/atrophy.

The HGH is expensive as fukkkk $625 a month but it melts belly fat like a hot knife through butter. I’m on a Tesamorelin/Ipamorelin combo which is like the Ferrari of growth hormones. I feel better now at 32 than I did at 18.

I have so many insulin syringes in my garbage can you’d think I were some heroin junkie, lol. Doesn’t bother me in the least, being a human pin cushion.

You take hormones to stimulate release of GH, not GH itself?

Yes it's unreal for fat loss.

I take the best stuff that my online TRT doctor has on the prescription refill menu. They just recently removed Tesamorelin from their list so I’m gonna get the next best thing which is CJC 1295-Ipamorelin.

Yeah brah that stuff is what gives people the 'influencer look'... People think that the secret is the oil, but really it's consistency with growth.

I prefer to just remain clean and natural because the amount of money it costs to simply look good is unsustainable - thing is though you stop taking it and can't handle the depreciation of your physical assets.

Fkn addictive though and expensive as fuark.

I’ve worked night shift for the past 6 years 60 hours a week and it’s taken it’s toll on my body and mind. TRT and HGH literally changed all of that for the better and I feel like a million bucks.

And I’m what you’d call an extroverted introvert. I do extremely well in social settings but just prefer to be alone more often than not. I see my friends when I want to. And I’m on and off with a couple friends with benefits here and there, depending on whether they’re in or out of a relationship.

I’ll be on TRT for life so I won’t lose a lot of gains until I drop the HGH and Nandrolone (deca). But gains from HGH are more permanent.

I need a couple more months. I was a fat fuk at 260 pounds at 5’11 and lost 40 pounds. But recently I posted progress pics of me going from 240 down to 220 and you couldn’t see much progress and I got chewed out/laughed at for it, lol. Give me two more months and I’ll be down to 200.

Nandrolone is 11 times more anabolic (muscle building) than testosterone and goddamn it makes you feel like a god in the gym. Really packs on the beef like no other. Far less side effects for me than when I took tren 10 years ago.

Would it not have been a wiser decision to find a daytime job, especially when you take the cost-benefit analysis of your lifestyle into consideration?

The reason that I ask is because i too was working nightshifts like that and boy do the bones get clicky after 3 night shifts in a row - so i was like f*ck that.

These days i'm going to bed at 11 latest and getting up at 6 or 7, and would never trade it in for more money or whatever.

I’m studying for my class A CDL truck drivers course. Since my boss has apparently been dangling that carrot in front of my head, promising me a job promotion soon and it never comes.

Hmmm yeah i dunno dude, i used to think i couldn't do anything and that i was stupid, etc, but with enough positive thinking and conscious analysis of life, i've found something more suitable and i'm a different person to 3 years ago.

You sound smart enough based off of your posts, but perhaps your mind and beliefs are limiting your potential?

Not sure what you’re trying to tell me brah. That I’m too smart to be a truck driver? If that’s the case, you’re 100% right. In an ideal world I’d be an Anthropology professor at some university but I’m not down for all the bullsh!t that comes with it. If I could just show up to lectures, teach the material and go home, that’d be great but that’s not how it works.

You name me any job/career, and I’ll find a reason why I can’t do it.

I have friends who legit spend more on GH than their house, that $600 a month is just for script Gh and only at 2iu a day, if you want to go to 8 iu a day and dont have a script youre looking at like 2k+ a month just on GH.

I wanna know how many IU’s and for how many months/years it takes for your organs to grow and develop HGH gut.
