I am now 62 years old and started on TRT in January, 2016. At that time I increased my exercise level, working up to what I do now, which is to lift weights for an hour three days a week and run an hour three days a week. As a result I lost ten pounds and then put it back on again, I hope changing fat to muscle. I'm surprised by how much progress I've been able to make over the two year, several weeks ago I ran a 5K and won in my age group.
I follow the McDougall diet, which is a high carb, low fat, plant based diet. I had been following it for many years because of irritable bowel syndrome, but had gotten lax as the irritable bowel got better. I attribute the loss of 10 pounds to the diet and it hasn't stood in the way of me gaining muscle since then. Here is a photo of me from the 5K race. As you can see, I'm still rather thin.
