35 yr’s old. 6 3 255lbs bodyfat 13%. Work out 3 to 4 days a wk. 1 to 2 bodyparts a per work out. I take in 250 to 300 grams of protein aday. 18 mons ago I was given the diagnosis of low Testosterone (Dr. thinks this could be Gulf war related) My readings kept coming back in the low 200’s. My symtoms were, loss of strengh, increase bodyfat and erection problems. In Dec 2001 I started androgel. 20 grams aday for 1 wk 15 grams the 2nd wk 10 grams per day wks 3 and 4. Then repeat. After 7 mon’s all symtoms are gone. My T-levels come back consistently( total 1250 free 380 and Estradiol 75. Dr. is not concerned about the E level. My questions are 1. Is this a good anbolic level? if not what is? 2. What are the prevailing thoughts on Androgel for bodybuilding? 3. Can anyone suggest anything else that I can cycle in to my supplment program? I presently take a good multi Vitamin and 2 protein packets aday plus 6grams CLA and 100 mg DHEA ( DHEA Levels were low 110 are now 385) and I Cycle creatine 12 wks on 8 wks off. I would like to cut alittle more bodyfat. Any suggestions or input would be great. Thank-you
