I agree with the others. Do not take Adex. I went through something similar. Doctor started me on TRT and put me on Arimidex and always tested with standard test. For over six months I had a standard E2 in the 30's and 40's on it. Later she did the sensitive test and I had 17 then another time...

Now with the pulls ups I am still trying to conquer that. I can lift myself halfway up but for maybe 2 reps. I am doing reverse curls with the barbell to strengthen my arms to later be able to lift my own weight. I agree too on not having to max out. I am 44 and need to avoid injury and I think...

I don't do Zero carbs either. I take protein, carbs and watch calories. I try to stay away from fast food and fried food. When I consume carbs its just a fruit here and there and yogurt. NOW sometimes I eat pizza and eat a big meal at a restaurant with fat/carbs and while I feel guilty later I...

Like yesterday I worked on my arms and today I feel sore. I can go back in 4 days and work on arms again and I don't feel sore. Does that mean I need to up the reps/weighs to make sure there is always soreness?

Are your muscles suppose to feel sore the next day or so after working them out? Sometimes I feel sore other times I do not. I want to make sure I am not wasting my time thinking I am building muscle when I am not sore.

Have you checked your E2 using the sensitive test? I felt weak for a long time before and on trt. Doctor had me taking AI .5 on M,W,F and the standard always came back in the 30's until I checked with the sensitive and had a 17 and another time 5. Ever since I stopped the AI I've felt better and...

How many times a week should one do abs?

Thank you and yes I will look it up. I feel my arms swell after I do many reps. I guess I am doing it right if I feel the pump like you mentioned yes?

Thank you Madman! This is indeed some excellent solid information you shared here and I appreciate it. I will have no choice for now to lift lighter since I have sciatic back pain from time to time. I try to stay between 1500 and 1800 calories a day to lose fat and hopefully build some muscle...

Thanks for the advise. Making gains can be frustrating at times. Yes Nelson looks awesome. Glad I found this site too.

You think I can make gains lifting lighter with more reps. More to tone and build muscle not to be huge.

Do I need to eliminate all simple carbs? I eat simple carbs here and there but not a lot. Example one yogurt and one pancake. The rest meats and nuts etc.

Guys I've been having some sciatic back pain and lifting at times aggravates it even using a belt. Having said that will I benefit any lifting lighter and more reps as far as being able to build muscle? I also take whey protein. Do I still use whey to help or do I no longer need it if my goal...
