What is the testosterone dose for muscle gain?

Some of the guys I work out with know that i inject T. It has come up why then do I not put on more gains, I do heavy rssitance training and little cardio. I explained that I am on a theraputic dose. Shoot I take a paltry 30 mg twice a week to keep red blood cells in line, so i could never do the super dosing that alot of body builders do.
At what levels do you begin to see substantial mass gains in the gym? I thought i read where guys may use 1500 mg/ injection when cycling on. I would die of a stroke in a matter of weeks doing that heavy dosage!!!

I'm seeking and achieving fat loss and muscle gain. I'm 47 and am stronger now than I was 27. I weigh 228, down from 248. I still drink once a week (binge like a mother) so I still enjoy myself. It takes time and dedication.
 
Was just watching another video from Tailor Made. Only 1/3 of the way through, but they were just mentioning dosing for CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin. Here’s the whole video. Really good information in it so far.

Just ordered some CJC-1295 off of Peptidesciences. After doing a bunch of research, they seemed like the safest bet. Really wish Empower would start making it already, or Defy would allow me to order it from Tailor Made, but since those aren’t currently options, peptidesciences seemed like the next best option. I was just going to run Ipamorelin by itself, but after watching some more videos, and doing more research, it can actually cause long term issues if you run a GHRP without a GHRH. I’ll obv keep you guys posted on how things go.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
