Gettin' old

[Couter]

Its been awhile since I've been here much less posted but was thinking about starting an 8 week sust/winny cycle and was wondering what my main concerns should be concerning blood work now that Im reaching the rightful old age of 55? Ive been lifting for well over 30 years so yeah I've know a thing or two about gear and pct but am a little concerned about being this old and starting another cycle.

I just had a complete blood panel performed and everything came back normal (including test levels) so my Dr wont even consider putting me on HRT so thats out of the question.

Thanks for your help

I'd say ur fine man as long as u run some solid support supps like liver and joint protection. The organs and joints aren't quite what they used to be so better to take precautions. Actually look into n2guard at needto's store. Its got all the bases covered for on cycle support in one bottle.

U may want to run a similar thread in the aas forum b/c there's not that much traffic here.

Test levels came back normal for who? a 55 year old man? HRT isnt about having the test levels of a 55 year old, its about having the test levels or a much younger man. If your seeing a "regular" old school doctor most view anything within normal lab range as "normal" but the difference in how you feel and perform when your test levels are at the low end of normal and at the mid to high end of normal are significant to say the least.

Many medical professionals are starting to realize that the effects of aging (weight gain, cognitive impairment and even high cholesterol)are actually side effects of low or out of whack hormone levels and thats why anti-aging clinics are popping up all over the place.

That and don't try to gain too much strength too quickly. I keep tearing my damn tendons in my elbows and that takes 3-4 months to recover.
Good luck and do bloods!
