Height: 6’1
Weight: 234
After struggling with my weight no matter what I did. I completed Insanity/P90/and more with the proper dietary programs to support me and I still struggled with weight. I have never been able to build big muscle or get into really good shape (Stuck being pudgy with a gut and love handles). I read the forums here on T Nation about TRT and decided to give it a try.
After some blood work I was coming back at only 240 at the height of my testosterone. My doctor told me that I should be in the 300-600 min based on the workouts I was doing. I started taking the shots every other week. My doctor told me after the first few I would be up to the a new height with my Testosterone and really feel the difference. After feeling nothing on the first shot my Doctor increase the dose, then the time after with no change in weight/mood/feeling/anything he increased it to what he said was the max allowed at a time.
I was given the max TRT shot every other week for 3 months. I started to feel some difference, worked through a bit of weight and felt a small amount of muscle growth but still felt like I just did not have enough still. I have the feeling of a boost in energy but feel it could be more.
A few weeks ago I took another blood test to see the new results. After 4 months of being on TRT I am only at 276. The Doctor said that this is unique and that the growth will just slowly climb as we move on. It seems odd that after that much time my levels would increase so little.
Any thoughts or ideas from anywhere here would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
