[QUOTE="Golfboy307, post: 182536, member: 39462"] I posted on the other thread but here is my advice somewhat on the other side at Age 53: before you commit to TRT, you should cut back your mileage and training and see what your levels are in a few months. Excessive hard training affects your body, with both benefits and side effects. You are now entering the age where the side effects may not be worth it. It will get tougher as you go from 40 to 50 on your body. With that low of T, your E2 also may be low, which can lead to stress fractures. Yes, you can go on TRT, but as a competitor you will be ineligible for high level racing. I am middle of the pack guy, so I didn't care. If you do try TRT, make sure you commit to several months to see if you feel better once your levels have stabilized. 100mg per week, spread over 2-3 doses is a great place to start. Not an easy decision, but I am happier at exercising now that I am not running 2-3 marathons per year and training all of the time. Food for thought. [/QUOTE]
