67yo, 6’3" 205, about 18% lard. On TRT for almost 2 years. 100mg wk of test cyp via 3x a week IM. Got bloods back, at trough
TT 814 range250-1100
T free 142 range35-155
Estradiol ultra sensative 38 range < or =29
SHBG 41 Range22-77
Pretty happy with how I feel and performance in the gym and bed. Wondering when test levels peak after a shot, and if having workouts at peak T would be a benefit.
Any other comments or insight would be appreciated.
If your pinning testC 3x per week then your levels are pretty stable. Not a discernable difference between peak and trough.

24-48 hrs depending on individual absorption rate etc. It’s more important to know for folks injecting only 1x a week so they can pull labs at trough. As @s.gentz stated when you pin 3x a week it’s not a great difference.
Appreciate the response
I’ve never noticed a difference, and there’s one study out there where they gave guys 200mg of Test then had them do heavy workouts the next day and saw no strength increases. Test is working on the AR at the DNA level, I think acute changes in performance just aren’t there with long esters, even at peak TT levels. But that’s just my interpretation.
