my 18 month progress pic..

I guess it can go in here since I'm on HRT..

My short story..

started training about 24 months ago..

I sucked at it, couldnt grow, went to the doctor - had very low test (i was 20 years old and my test level was in the 280's)..

i was on 400mg ONCE A MONTH for the first 6 months of my HRT, then I was on 200mg twice a month until july when I moved to 200mg a week.. I got injured in september and lowered my dose to 125mg wk to sustain and not waste the test.. gonna up my dose a bit when I can get back to training @ 100%.

So I'd say this is my progress with 100-150mg/wk.

Goofed around for 6 months and then started actually lifting.. been lifting about 90% for the past 18 months and have jumped frmo 135 lbs to 183 lbs as of today.

here's my back pic -- i scaled everything so that its accurate to be side by side (tattoo is the same size, arms are same length, ears are same).. so its a good comparison.

well, here it goes..

Serious progress! If cycling is not an option, explore some 'natural' development options if that is your goal --- the body you build thru hard work will always be a solid friggen foundation for ANYTHING you do in the future and isn't dependent on the exogenous stuff you may introduce to your system for a while.
 
Very nice progress. U seem to have very small joints which is a blessing ur bicept peeks are comming along just fine ur back seems to have doubled in size (which is always amazing). Very nice shape in the trap area. The only thing I would suggest is to bring up ur tricepts a tad.. (A nice arm is two-thirds tricept and one third bicept).. You have put on some great quality mass something to be proud of. Other than that great work ... :)
 
How old are you? 185 was always easy for me to overcome, wait till you get to 200's +, in body weight. very nice job though. keep up the good work.
 
good job bro..but your bacne is way out of control...run accutane to permanently clear that sucker up.. mine used to do the same thing also...not anymore ;)
 
Thanks everyone :)

Yeah, the shoulder and bacne is pissing me off.. Thinking about running some accutane once the weather warms up so that i'm not all dry and brittle in the cold weather
 
Mike fear,


I take it you like Q.T. and Pulp fiction, so do I


You back looks great

Time for you to try some Fina, lift Heavy and Heavy, and Heavy and eat a lot of Calories,

I know that will be hard at Christmas.
 
Def made some great progress and seemingly stayed at the same b/f

it is amazing wat proper test levels can do, let alone a full cycle

He is still only 22

Good job mike. Nice progress but I would like to point out something as constructively as I can.

Remember your situation BEFORE you start flaming other young newbies that come in here to ef and are having a hard time growing 20. Maybe they have the same problem. you would have come on to this post and said you are too young and eat lift sleep repeat as if it were no big deal. If I did not grow at age 20 I would have thought I was doing something wrong like eating the wrong foods or lifting the wrong way a long time before I went to the doctor to ask if my testosterone was too low. I would think you would have been chubbier than you were with such low testosterone levels so I wonder what exactly might have helped get my test that low before having it prescribed such as maybe experimenting with the juice and having my natty production levels decreased. I am not trying to flame it is just that instead of flaming first, think first of your own experience. And now you are talking about a full blown cycle. age 23 to 25 remember?

Just saying!

Lookin good fear! Keep up the progress. Good idea about the accutane during the winter. I started mine a couple of weeks ago and Im a walking ash tray. I wish I would have waited.
 
If you are prescribed test - WHy not bump to 750mg/week for 10 weeks. You are not taking anything that was not prescribed, you just goofed up the dosage for a couple months.
 
That would require me to purchase a controlled substance in order to have enough for 750mg wk for 10 weeks.. since i'm not prescribed that much, I can't get ahold of that much without buying it.. buying it is the problem i'm having :)

I see what you're saying..

I did not experiment with anything and screw my levels though, if that's what you're insinuating.. just have low production is all.. I was always a real small kid - never really grew facial hair or had a lot of energy, I would get depressed, etc -- that's what led me to believe I had low T levels and I told my doc. He checked them, and sure 'nuff..

I'm usually nice to the newbs, unless they post like morons :)

Cold where you live?
Maybe for a few days, remember this is the sunshine state.

Actually you are allowed to import if you have a valid prescription. Since you do - you could buy a 90 day supply legally. So use that 90 day supply in 30 days and order another 90 day supply (legally)
 
Hm.. my conscience would weigh heavy on me.. the main thing is that I want to stay of sound moral character, as is required by the job.. maybe if I end up going down another path.. but for now, the prescribed dose will have to do; not that i'm complaining about a 5$ co-pay for 10ml of test.
 
[QUOTE not that i'm complaining about a 5$ co-pay for 10ml of test.[/QUOTE]

No need to rub that in to us who don't have insurance or naturally low levels :p ...great progress for 18 months...keep it up-

lol, sorry :)

and thanks
 
Good improvements man. A lot fuller and more defined.

I had no problems growing when I was 20 though... cause I was juicin :)

I'm 22 now too, I always thought you were older.
 
Ypur backne is from your body responing to test you never had. Do Accutane now and you'll never get it again, (I was there). The doc will likely prescribe high does (80mg/ed) which is hell on ya, so get the script and just take a tiny dose for a longer time. I had labs monthly and all was fine with the route. As for test, keep your total test at the top of the range and you won't need to cycle for a long time. Just make sure your doc checks all hormones, E, etc. Your dose actually sounds quite high for HRT. I'm 210lbs and keep at the top of range w/ 100mg/wk.
 
Ever think the backne could be from infrequency of your injections causing your hormones to fluctuate? A compound like sustanon would be better suited for what you're doing it seems - though they dont prescribe that in the US as far as I know.
 
Lookin' good bro. Get some Old Testament tattoos about redemption and justice and shit on your back, and you'll look like De Niro in Cape Fear.

hah, HE WHO IS NOT THEE THOU ART NOT WHAT THEY HAVETH BECOME!
 
Was going to suggest loading some Vit B5 / Pantothenic Acid caps for the bacne. It helps me like crazy when I get hormone related acne (a female thing, but still a hormone thing). Get a bottle at your local GNC or wherever - tends to be relatively cheap and load it for a few days and see if it helps you before you dive into the accutane. Just a suggestion.

you're gross.
 
Keep up the great work my friend. You're lookin' great.

What have you learned since being on HRT at such a young age? What all has the doc prescribed to keep you healthy? What kind of routine bloodwork are you having done?
 
I get my blood work done very 6-9 months.. haven't learned much except for the fact that if you dont have test in your body, you won't grow for shit :)
 
thanks bro's.. it keeps me motivated to hear you guys say there's a difference.. i just keep wanting to change my body
