Hello members, soon to be friends. I'm 42 and have been on TRT for a year this Sept. I started TRT after experiencing Overtraining Syndrome 3 years ago. I never had my Test levels tested before OTS so I didn't have a baseline. My Test levels came back low normal anywhere from 320-420 ng/dl. Besides elevated cortisol levels, this was the only clue on how I might get back to feeling normal. All I knew was I felt dramatically different after a hard training block followed by the race I was training for. After that week, I was tired all the time, no matter how much I slept. I became very depressed, I felt awful when I found the energy to workout. I couldn't get my heart rate up to my normal racing zone. I also had no interest in sex. Life was hell for those 2 years. I started exercising many times during those 2 years, only to feel so bad I had to stop. I was able to start TRT with a clinic but moved on after 6 months, because I convinced my PCP to start treating me. Sadly however, I still do not feel like I did before OTS but, I am able to enjoy exercising again, so I'll take it. I hope to learn a lot from all of you here. I really want to dial my program in.
Thanks
Chris
