How To Change Your Workouts & Nutrition After Starting Testosterone Replacement Therapy 

I'm 25. Married, 2 kids, Army veteran and felt like I kept hitting a wall in everything I did. Sure enough my levels were super low and was just recently prescribed TRT. (No, not by the VA. The VA doesn't care.) Lots of adrenaline dumps, growing up on terrible processed foods and ingesting microplastics is a recipe for young dudes to just have low numbers these days. My doc said she's seeing more and more young guys with very low levels and it's concerning. To any other dude in their 20's - don't be ashamed to at least get your levels checked and talk to a men's health professional. Times are different and our generation seems to have some big issues.

Have felt fatigued for years now, can’t recover from workouts, feel like I’m in a fog. Decided to get tested and came in at 180😂😅 starting TRT next week and can’t wait.

Test Levels came back very low, having some serious symptoms hoping on TRT very soon

After being on and off of T a few times, I learned a lot. It’s a tool you need to use to help your body get where it needs to get. Just being on it and not doing anything for your health isn’t going to do much. I was up to 950 at one point. Sure my libido was outstanding but I never worked out. I was drinking lots of alcohol, eating whatever. Not sleeping much. I’m a singer and one thing it did do was mess up my voice. So I got off it for five years and a result my T has gone down to 150. I’m 59 years old and been feeling like a absolute hell. Just got back on it. I’m taking 0.5 ml once a week now and keeping it chill because I need my voice. It’s what I use to make a living. But I will definitely be working out now and watching my diet and keeping the booze down to minimum if at all.

Awesome clip … answered questions I had 🎉

I am a 25yo in the same exact shoes as Ben! Way to optimize brother. We got this!

All of these videos about TRT are usually referring to steroid type cycles of testosterone not TRT. I wish everyone would make clear distinctions between the two because they're two totally different things. Guys that are only taking small, legitimate levels of test for TRT which doesn't give you super physiological levels of testosterone shouldn't expect to see "body building" type results from simply having normal levels of testosterone. But to me, all of these podcasts sorta conflate the two during their discussions which makes it confusing for the average man. Btw, upper 300mg doses of test are cycles not TRT lol Most TRT doses never even break 200mg per week

Wait a minute did this dude say he’s on TRT and is 25 years old 😳😳

I can’t sleep through the night on trt at all I wake up so rock hard and I’m jus tip for a few hours till I crash again around 5-6 am

Neverending storyyyyyyy

Just be patient and stay disciplined.. he’s rushing in his mind

With what he said, it has nothing to do with trt. It's specifically asking how to be "extra".

is there an update with this guy ?

i think most of the people oversees testosterone replacement: meaning they aspect this hormone to change their life but for 90% of the people it’s not like that. Maybe there are some incredible responders, but there’s a reason why most of the people that are on steroids you see in the gym you won’t even say they lift weights!! for me: i had very very low testosterone levels… that’s the reason why i started: i thought and hope it would have change my life! but it hasn’t!! going from 150mg per week to 1,7 GRAMS per week didn’t change so much in terms of mood, motivation, eneregy during the day, body composition… not that much of a difference!!🙁🙁

I started taking trt gel. Is it beneficial to apply before or after lifting workouts?

I get some ppl have low testosterone but it's really just become a way for young ppl who want to get bigger faster and use TRT as an excuse to get on testosterone. You should be 40 before starting TRT. There are lots of way to lower your testosterone before going to the doctors to tip the scale in your favor

The reason the typical doctor tends to brush their patients off, is because they simply doesn't know enough about TRT to properly prescribe it. Its just easier for them, to just dismiss it altogether rather than learn something new. They are learning though, slowly but surely. IN any event, people tend to forget that doctors are medicine men by profession . They prescribe medicines to cure, prevent, and treat ailments.

I went from 334 to 960 in around 3 months all natural no TRT. This book should be essential reading for all men. Written by a 50s guy with natural T levels of a 20s guy Complete guide to testosterone by james Francis

I had a friend on a higher dose and he had to quit it totally after a couple weeks. He had serious anxiety attacks.

If you're 25 and taking testosterone already that's sad his body didn't even peek naturally give me a choice of my trt or my natural testosterone at 25 I'm taking the ladder that's sad

17% bodyfat, c240 pounds - you're not growing because you're already the size of a house lad. Chris Bumstead off season is 260, smh

Eat more, make workouts more intense but get enough recovery.

About a Grand. My Urologist know my hx. No DeCA limited testosterone. Should i double up 250 an 250mg???? Help.

Im on 100mg a Week t cyp, been 2 months and my body is pretty much the same , I do workout an track macros. Im wondering if im just not a good responder. Any ideas??

👍

you don't need to change anything, taking x20 times what your body makes in a week is gonna build muscle even if you don't workout at all!

Growing Up in the 1970s Alaska we didn’t have Sit on your behind stuff. We had to Chop wood eat moose Salmon. We never sat we were busy from the time we rose until we went to bed. Hobbies Hockey Skiing Motor sports. Turn off your Games and go for a run. Dont watch TV. Go to a City Council meeting get involved. Read your Bible to learn you have a spirit that longs for God.

Increasing his calories at this point makes zero sense. He'll gain weight. If he's at maintenance and now he's on trt in theory the newfound energy and training should put him in a deficit which will cause him to trim down. His goal was to lose weight, not gain weight. Telling this guy to eat more makes zero sense. ***Update*** 4000 calories 😂😂😂😂😂 You've got to be kidding. Horrible advice.

Ok, replying one year later, but I'm here now! They are the ones that address the elephant in the room. I have made my own meta analysis of the matter at hand, and what I concluded is that the one culprit behind heart disease, increase in body fat index and obesity, diabetes, lower testosterone and decreased longevity longevity - linking them all together, none other than VEGETABLE OILS!!! Yeah, it should not be in our food. It's not sugar (to that much of a degree as advertised), because we had it in our diets from fruit for hundreds of thousands of years. We also have agriculture for tens of thousands of years. So we are used to ingesting sugars. But vegetable oil is a way for companies to make money from waste product of agriculture, and shove it in all of our products, replacing natural animal fats, that we are used to process. Yes, some vegetables have fats, but not in that insane amount we are now getting everyday. Look it up. Please, spread this message. Stop eating that crap.

25 way to young to be on TRT insane!

Get small and live longer. Less tissue for heart to support. Tip: chicks like dudes with money, not muscles.
