TRT - Should I?
Honest question, coming from someone who makes a living training other people. Why do you work out so much? That much cardio and lifting everyday? Why? It's probably not doing you any good, either because you're not giving your body enough time to recover or because the intensity of your...- lcvl

Looking For Advice With These Results
When I started TRT 2 years ago, at 42 y/o, my total T was at about the same level as yours (500). In my case the problem was that my Free T levels were very, very low for my age.- lcvl
