[QUOTE="Tonyp56, post: 108431, member: 14856"] Don't know, I was a couch potato from time i was 16 until I was 36. I weighed 295 + pounds, I hadn't done much for exercise in those 20 years. Anyways August 2013 went on low carb diet (<=50 grams a day, total calories were 1950 per day) and did lots of Hiit cardio and little weight training. About 8-9 months in went to Dr because I felt like crap, low energy etc. I had been experiencing this for pretty much entire time. Anyways total t was mid 300's and I was slightly anemic. Dr wanted me to start supplementing with multi with iron (already was doing multi vitamin) And if it didn't help low t was going to be next treatment option. Not wanting that I kept pushing how I felt to the side. This was May of 2014, November 2014 i started powerlifring seriously. Did make progress but was plagued by low energy. I took deload weeks every couple months, tried to sleep and ate about 500 calories over maintenance. It got so bad that I helped sister in law move (early October 2016) and felt fine moving furniture but for the next 3 days felt horrible, like I had been ran over by a truck. This kept happening more and more, even if I took an entire week off I'd be feeling good, go train and then for next day or 2 felt horrible. January of 2017 got blood work, total t was 462. Anyways June 2017 it was 350ish. [/QUOTE]
