Test only 250mg a week?

[ALIN]

Hello all,

I'm 33 and I have low testosterone levels. My doctor prescribes me 150mg a week of Test E which brings my levels up to normal. I take extra ( 250mg a week ) and I have seen great results. I went from 170 lbs to 186 lbs in about 10 weeks.
I plan on running 250mg a week for the rest of my life. My doc says it's a little high but he's not that concerned about it.
I hit 186 lbs a few weeks ago and I can't seem to grow in size or weight anymore.

My question is - Will I still continue to grow? I know the size and weight came on fast but will I still add more size and weight in the future without upping my dose cause I don't want to do that?

Thanks

I think that you should stay at the noraml range and maybe 3-4 times per year turn it
up a notch for some increased gains. If 150mg keeps you normal use that unless your ON.

This isn't true, after a while everybody that's clean will hit a plateau.
When you get sick, don't sleep well etc you will quickly lose some muscle and have to start over again. And since it takes so long to gain naturally, you never manage to get over a certain niveu.

Let's say a normal healthy male is working out without gear. As long as he eats, rests and trains well, he will basically continue to grow.

Because I'm increasing my testosterone levels ( still within normal though ), I have seem to plateaued. As long I continue to diet, rest and train well, I should still make gains in strength, size and weight should I not?

Obviously DIET is going to play the biggest part in how much and how fast you grow and the test levels should be fine to continue to support growth as long as youre feeding yourself properly to continue to grow.

Your diet and workouts will do more for you than your test levels unless they've plummetted to ridiculously low levels. The most significant gains I made were the 3 years after my first cycle being natty and following the diet and training advice from people on here. I've been stronger on joose, been more vascular, etc, but I never did better than when I really focused on what I really wanted and just pushed and made it happen.

I hope you have kids already ..because your swimmers will die because your going to stop producing natural test which in hand stop producing normal sperm....and you'll have to see a urologist to get them active again if you plan on running 250mgs/wk for life.

This is not always the case ...but the case for most on trt..
