Steroids have been a game-changer in my fitness routine, providing the extra edge I needed to advance more rapidly. When used with careful planning and consideration for overall health, they can be a powerful tool for anyone serious about reaching their peak potential.
Test Enan is commonly used in hormone replacement therapy to address low testosterone levels, promoting muscle growth and improving overall well-being. Tren, on the other hand, greatly enhances muscle size and strength. Speeds up recovery from injuries as well.
Totally agree. Steroids helped me recover faster and maintain muscle mass, especially during intense training or after injury. It's amazing how they can support bone health as well, which is crucial for people with conditions like osteoporosis.
There’s no doubt to the benefits of steroids. Honestly, it has greatly impacted my life. It played a major role in achieving my desired physique. People should learn not to abuse these substances and act like they are all bad.
Hey everyone, I’m looking for reliable sources for both steroids and protein supplements. I know it’s crucial to be cautious with these, especially with steroids, so I want to make sure I’m getting them from trustworthy sources. For protein supplements, I’m also interested in recommendations for reputable brands. Any suggestions or advice on where to find safe and high quality options?
Im 50 using 350 sust 220npp and 225 masteron atm weekly ..been on and off steroids for 25 years ..after 16 weeks i drop to 250 test pw ..my recent bloods were good with the exception of elevated creatinine and psa slightly raised ..but thats adressed now ..i feel great strong as ive ever been atm 💪but i get what you are saying and respect that .alot of guys i know sniff cocaine drink beer and smoke 30 a day while poping pills wich i think is worse than steroids ..80% population drink smoke and party hard ..i think it depends if you look after yourself.i dnt smoke havent drank alcohol in 15 years and eat very very clean and healthy all kinds like medataranien diet olives fish chiken greens everything good ..i walk 3 times weekly for 3 to 4 hrs also in the sticks and forests get lots of fresh air loads of water . i use supplements vitamins including apsrin baby daily ..great video doc
53 and been pumping iron since I was 16. My body literally felt like it was breaking down. Joint paint, stiffness and general weakness until 3 weeks ago I got on 125mg test enantate every 4 days. I'm back to feeling amazing. Blood work showed low test, hence the course.
@@mitchellferre1652 Probably your T secretion was extremely low to start with. The danger of T is when numbers are not extremely low, but just on the lower side. Big difference.
@Peter King I blasted huge amounts of gear for two decades before going on trt for another 14yrs. My test levels were fine for years after I stopped blasting, until old age caught up with me. Drugs like tren give testosterone a bad reputation among people who are not knowledgeable.
@Peter King each individual must be evaluated regarding their test levels, how well they feel, energy, libido and performance, and other existing health problems before going on trt. Surprisingly you won't feel much of a difference between extremely low and slightly lower test levels. If you feel like crap, you feel like crap. Each individual has a sweet spot where they feel normal again. It's not always where you end up with a endocrinologist. I had a good doc , she relocated. Her replacement said 300ngl test was perfect but it was like i wasn't even on trt. I told him he was relieved of duty, fired. I take care of writing my own prescription now lol. I'm lucky to have a great primary care doc who does bloodwork every year. Never been healthier.
I'm going on 37 and I have suffered greatly severe since the first dose. About 2 weeks after starting the very first thing I noticed was my memory was SIGNIFICANTLY better then on top of that about 3 weeks in my libedo went through the roof then the weight gain i gained about 15lbs of fat free mass and looked significantly better. Who wants a better brain better sex and look better, not me.
I bought some Sustanon 450 and have been taking 1/2 a CC a week. I went to do my double red blood donation yesterday and both my hematocrit and blood pressure were great (albeit on the high side of normal). I'm always tempted to do more but now I'm thinking, "Why?" I feel great, I'm still strong and have lots of energy for 53. I don't drink, smoke, do any other drugs, eat a really clean diet, and make sleep a priority. For me, there doesn't seem to be any upside to doing more.
If your bloods are on the “high side of normal” then they’re not “great” …. Especially given that what’s regarded as normal blood pressure can still bring health problems
If your BP and hematocrit are on the high side of normal that is not 'great'! Secondly, there is no such thing as a steroid dosed at 450mg per ml. It's not possible to dissolve that much steroid into that little solution. Typically 200mg/ml is the standard. 300mg/ml can be achieved if the preparation includes extra alcohol to dissolve the extra steroid, and those shots are painful as a result. Most likely the stuff you have is underdosed and that is a good thing at 53yrs old. Stop taking underground shit and just get on TRT from a doctor.
I have been taking 250-500mg of Sustanon for at least five years now. I’m 45 and I started because my Test was low due to abusing roids in my 20’s. I feel so much better since starting the TRT. My BP is really high but I’m taking medz from my doctor which brings it down. My LDL was high until I started a Ketogenic diet. I tried to go off the Sustanon but I found I had no energy, sex drive, and I just felt like a slug. I don’t think I’ll ever go off them. I know it’s shedding a few years off my life but I would rather look and feel good for my remaining years than be depressed with a limp dick.
Bring your dose down slowly to 200mg/wk at most. It will be an adjustment, then you feel great. You are not shedding a few years of life but could possibly forgoing decades of it. Your body is giving you clues. Listen to it.
Oh well 😆😄😀 idk why guys do that ! They also want it all at once and pay for it later on some the like jarras of starting point in trt first the. Work ur way up ! imm54 and on trt I just raise my trt lol I’m doing it now bc I always knew guys who were really doing big doses and abused it are now either dead or on the cusp! I always wanted to but e er wanted deca dick and or dbol for high bp and that’s a bad idea also liber and heart issues with it no thanks ! Just enough r to make a splash ar da gym maybe bench my ass off of the kids who think they wall that well they have another thing coming lol I’m giving them a run for their money just on cypionate alone next time it will be like Var and that will get their attention and see how the real deal is !!
@@unassailable6138 500 is a very noticeable difference. 250 is only maintenance level TRT. 500 is when you see actual Anabolic effects in the gym as far as muscle and lean mass. 750 is when you really notice it. Just watch your Blood Pressure and take prostate support. Costco has a good one.
Best thing to do is low dose and work your arse of like old school lifters today there lazy and just inject more drugs but taking short cuts may get you what you want but come at a cost and sometimes that cost is your health and life
I'm 68 and have been on TRT since my early 40s. I continue to add deca every few weeks which eliminates my joint pain. Although I've done full cycles in my younger days, I wouldn't do a full cycle now, because there's no reason to. The TRT and occasional deca work just fine for me.
I'm 66 and started TRT about 5 months ago, it's been great. Been thinking about adding a relatively low dose of Deca...for my joints and a little boost at the gym. What dose do you take and how often? Any sides? Mostly concerned about possible effects on my mood.
Right!! I’m 62, just got done with a complete right shoulder replacement surgery, Doctors say I’ll be needing a left one too so, I’m gonna run some decca 300, & sustanon 250 ( I’ll start about 3/4 of 1ML) then peak on a full ml per week, for a 12 week cycle….Want to build up before the next surgery because, you’re laid up for several months…..Can’t stand wasting away Brüder…..🏋🏻♀️💪🏼😎
I typically add 100-200mg once or twice a year for about 12 weeks. I take it until the mental sides starts with is about 10-12 weeks. It makes me bitchy and grumpy. Only take it when back and elbow pain starts to become a problem. Usually pain is good to go for a few months after I stop.
Nanrdrolone (Deca) causes heart cell death. When those cells die, the immune system sends white blood cells to clean them up. The result is a heart with a dead, thickened mass that no longer beats normally. Deca is not safe. It is actually one of the worst steriods out there. Stay on the TRT, no deca.
You have a golden opportunity to publish some case studies! My hypothesis: in steroid naive men over 60, even a couple of cycles would trigger a significant proliferation of myonuclei. These enduring myonuclei will, adjusted for activity level, help to counteract sarcopenia into old age, and you will also see fewer falls and fractures. Short-term effects like mental acuity scores would be fascinating enough (and don't require biobsies; the clinical evidence for testosterone improving "brain fog" and memory is ambiguous, but there's a ton of anecdotal evidence. The world needs better data!
@@everready800 probably as good as mine which is better than off gear . And I'm 51 using test npp long term also occasional anavar ..with side salad of Bpc tb500 copper and other dressings ..mine is perfect,had elevated PSA slightly second last bloods but addressed that within 3 days with secret weapon meds 👀💪currently 17.6 lean since stripped down ..with superhuman strength
Just be careful with anavar as we all know that it is a pretty safe oral drug but I did 50 mg per day for 2 months and showed it up slightly showed up on my liver so I came off for about 4 weeks I believe and all went back to normal.
@@bladekhaira I'm planning on taking it two weeks on and a month off. I know that sounds crazy but, if you over train for the month you should be sore. Then the test and anavar will heal the injured muscles up and the soreness will go away. Then repeat the process. That way you don't have excess floating around in your body after you heal up. That's how I used EQ and Anadrol for ten years. I only used when I couldn't stand the soreness anymore. I had none of the side effects the doctor has talked about. I just never used test or anavar.
@@CCmagee3your DOMS (soreness) doesn't go away aftet a few days? Like chest soreness goes away in a day or 2..legs might take longer..that's normal without using anything....it's different for you?
@@miraxus6264 I overtrained because I was addicted to bodybuilding. I stayed sore. I had very low body fat, overtrained and couldn't sleep because of it. I did most everything wrong. I didn't have the Internet to read and UA-cam to watch.
I’m 48 and I always wanted to be one of the stronger guys in the gym but I never wanted to mess with the stuff because I am interested in longevity. The fact is being skinny is what leads to a long life so my goal is to be strong for my weight and stay light. I have no health issues and I don’t even feel the need for any TRT because I have good energy. I can appreciate hearing all this, knowing I’ve made the right decision to stay natural and healthy. Life of me how a man my age would want to use steroids and cut their life short. I may not be able to post a 400 pound bench press. But at 190 pounds I can just about get up 300 and I think that’s darn good for being natural at 48 years old.
Well that’s good too sometimes that’s all you really need but anyway w everyone seems to. E the same way everybody wants ene the strongest guy in the gym 💪!!!! Me too but yeah plus EVERYONE WANTS THE SAME THING BRO NIT TAKE ANYTHING BUT YET BE SAFE THATSIS IMPOSSIBLE!! In order o r stay that way YOU HABE BE ON THE SAUCE CANT HAVE THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS SO THATS NIT REALITY!!! Ok 👍
I think you can only live as long as your genetics allow, being lean is only helpful if you have the genetics for long life. Most of us will die from other causes long before that comes into play.
@@lukec2226 Most of the early deaths I see are overweight people with heart disease, or health problems associated with weight. You don’t see too many fat guys over 70. Most are dead before 65.
Doc thanks for keeping my urge to restart TRT at bay. I was on TRT for a few years (at 50ish) and absolutely loved it. Mostly because of how I looked and how strong it made me. Problem is I had/have all the underlying issues that TRT exacerbates like the hypertension,bad blood work markers, family history of heart disease etc. My TRT clinic kept telling me all was fine but your videos were telling me otherwise. I quit a few year ago and I feel different now. Outside I look and am weak like a 60 year old man (cus I am). But inside I feel better and don’t have the anxiety that I’m shortening my lifespan with a drug/hormone.I’ve come very close to getting back on a few times but when I get the urge I go back and watch your warning videos and come back to my senses. I want to thank you for promoting common sense and providing this valuable educational info.
THIS is the problem with his videos... Your deficiency is far worse for you than your worries while on TRT. He generates unnecessary worry. You need hormones.
@@jefflaurens9673 While on TRT (daily microdosing) my heart rate was always high, I was always aware of my heart kinda pounding all the time, I would get winded more easily. It definitely was not healthy. Now I don't feel my heart beating and I have a lower heart rate and better cardio. Big muscles and strength? Or healthy internals? A common sense decision. The myth of TRT being healthy is total BS. I know from personal experience. People get addicted to the look and feel and ignore what's important. If I could do TRT with only the benefit of the muscles and strength I would do it.
I'm 41 and my testosterone was only 100 and used to be a gym rat very strong guy but over the last year felt horrible to much belly fat no sex drive sad depression so it it shortening my I'm OK with that I want to feel good while I'm here on earth
I’m 49 I’ve been using gear 1 year. I started using testosterone last august 2023 I was underweight and never worked out in my life. Now I’m 88kg, gained 22kg, and I’m now ripped. I love my life, and train 6 days a week. Thanks for this.
You've also completely crippled your body's ability to produce testosterone. Such a stupid thing to do. Now you're on this train for the rest of your life and you better hope there's not a problem.
I am a 53 year old lifetime natural for 39 years. I am super strong and jacked. The natural route is hard, but is very rewarding and much much healthier
@@marshallderriek1858 I am open to TRT to balance my hormones, but only when I get to an age where natural is just impossible. Too many young guys give into steroids before even giving the natural route a chance.
Cool but you will find that your test is low no matter what you think. And if you've never been on it how do you know ' natural is better. I was like you then got on the gear at 56 I think. 60 now and fitter , healthier , pain free. Low doses of test e and hgh is the magic combination
@@watz7316 Well, I don’t know what my test levels are, but I am muscular, strong, horny, happy, and full of energy. Why fix what aien’t broke? If that ever changes, sure I am open to TRT under a doctor’s prescription and supervision
@watz7316 it's all magical for your prostate also .. you're making that grow faster as well .. see how life becomes when it's enlarged and you need to come off the magical combination
This is me! I’ve been on TRT for about eight years at about 150 mg per week. I am 57 years old and I’ve worked out all my life and have never taken any steroids. Now I’m thinking of running some Proviron, 25mg 2x/day and some Primo, 250mg 2x/week to see what it does with the TRT. I live in Scottsdale Arizona and I’m competing with a lot of other guys my age for Hotties. It’s about time, WTH!
We see many people that do not use any steroids and dying young with all kinds of health problems. Someone taking care of their health and using steroids and staying fit has a far better chance of a longer life than someone that doesn't.
I work in live video and I'm always taken aback by the number of ads for junk food, alcohol, and fast food restaurants during sporting events. It's either a car ad or an ad for unhealthy habits.
Just a little heads up for some in the comments posting the doses they take. Anything over 200mg/week testosterone TRT. Even 200mg/ week will send most men into a superphysiological range. Don't kid yourself it's trt. Proper medical diagnosis is required, proper blood tests and monitoring. Don't get me wrong. If you have had low T and know what it feels like and the impact it has on your brain then TRT can be a life saver. Also having had very low T over a long period of time and then going on TRT I do understand how you can get caught up in the 'just a little more might make me feel even better', mentality. It pops into my head on occasion, I've even had thoughts of what would a proper cycle feel like?? Howeverif I started where would I stop????? TRT is essentially about finding the minimum dose to cure your signs and symptoms. Good luck, stay healthy.
I started TRT at 57. I started steroids at 58. I'm now 60. I've had 2 bodybuilding competitions and they went well. I won my age group and my weight class in the open. In Nov., I go to nationals to compete for an IFBB pro card. I decided to go down this path when I saw everyone wear the masks. The mindless compliance of those around me completely changed my expectations of the future. It may turn around, but not in my lifetime. I don't expect that this will be a world that I'm willing to live in long before the roids kill me. I'm having the time of my life. I was invisible for 58 years, now small children star at me on the beach. Strangers take selfies with me. everyone wants to know how old I am. I'm having a blast. By the way, I'm all in. I also retired at 58.
Good for you! Great to hear. I can imagine it must feel great to be in best shape of your life, and the most jacked, well into your late 50’s. Sounds like a great life. God gave us all time and choices….l
I won the pro qualifier in Nov. but there weren't enough men in my age class to earn an IFBB pro card. I'll try again at masters nationals 7-20-24@@2inthepink1inthestink11
I am in my 40's Never used, but have good genetics. When i use creatine i make already a lot off progress. I was always interested is steroïds but choose my health above it. Sometimes i think what if i did, or should i try it. It wil always be tempting i guess. 😅
Man I'm only 31, been messing around for a while now and let's just say sleep apnea and high blood pressure suck. TRT is good but other things lead to bs, make sure to do blood work and dont eat burgers/pizza all the time
I asked my cardiologist for the calcium score test and he said he didn't believe in it! I am so done with doctors if you don't know they are the third cause of death and you can look this up
I did my first, and last, test-only cycle at 43 (10 weeks, 500mg per, test cyp). BP was slightly elevated (mid 130/70) and got pretty bad cystic back acne, but experienced no other side effects. I went into it as a one-time only and it stayed that way...it was an itch that I had to scratch.
Its all about moderation im 46 been doin it since i was 23 but i never abused it and get blood work every 4 months check my hemoglobin levels liver creatinine i never smoked and rarely drink alcohol i feel ok also depends what you take from my experience anavar raises red blood cells more than test just my input then again everyone is different
Its all about moderation. He could make the same list about alcohol (only 3x longer) which we all know is a poison. Yet half the world's population drink anyway.
Another amazing video doc! I'm about to turn 60 and have been reconciling all the things I do in life, including training. Your wisdom has impacted my thinking tremendously. I am forever grateful 🙏
Totally concur Jason I'm a NFL alum 66 now so I'm trying to keep my muscle n strength to the end , I'm not risking prostate cancer cuz I'm to VAIN!!! it ain't happening!!!
The real question is, why would men under 40 takes steroids if they have higher T levels naturally??? I'm 41 and on TRT which is a safe 1ml testosterone cypionate every 2 weeks. That's it. Lost 60lbs since last August. All calisthenics too. With dumbells too.
On and off cycles for 20 plus years now on trt at 46 the past 4 years and I take a couple other types of gear periodically while on trt but I cycle off and on and I get blood Labs every 3 months and urinalysis complete blood panels. My blood work comes back good no issues but I don't smoke or drink I workout as I Have 5 days a week like I have for 20 years. If done moderately under Dr care u can be fine. My friends my age are having all types of issues they don't exercise and eat bad as well drink all the time. They look 20 years older.
Doc I know the risk. I lived with depresión for 6 to 8 years. I made the choice 2 years ago. 39 now. The choice was clear. I want to live a healthy strong life. If I die.. I die strong loving life and living to the fullest. I rather go out like that than brittle broken down weak and suffering.
Im a 57 yr. old guy who has done 3 cycles of steroids in my much younger years, and have always been a musclehead. My situation has changed recently...DRASTICALLY!!! I just got off opiods, went to detox myself and i am now 127 lbs.!!! My lifelong average weight has been 190+ my whole life. I am seriously thinking of running to get some Winstrol and jumping into a Gym for the next 14-16 weeks just to get myself back to health!!
Best time to start if your healthy .. keep you going like a soldier for another 20 years using mild doses. I started at 40..im now 44 an all my bloods are perfect like a 20-year-old athlete an I feel like a stallion an only sleep 6 hours an im wide awake
The "best" time to start is never! Unless you want to become impotent, sterile, bald, with shriveled balls, hairy like a monkey, bitch tits, bloated, fat, high blood pressure , liver disease, heart disease, moody, blood disorders, and on it and other drugs for life!🙋🙏
The short answer is yes, particularly if you are an older guy. Everyone is effected by drugs differently and while someone you know, or read about may be able to use stupid amounts of steroids, for others even just TRT can cause issues. That's why you should work with a doctor even if you're just using low-dose Test.
@@flex8707 Yep. It can cause issues for some too.. Notice I said that was the short answer. Getting ones hormones balanced just right is complex, and can be difficult, hence why I just gave a brief amswer..
Still they use roids in pharmacy. Also, if roids are that bad make a vid on alcohol, cigarettes or even the poluted air we are breating and a mild test or primo cycle is a birthday party for the body. Remember, roids are illegal, alcohol and cigarettes which kill millions every year are perfectly available almost everywhere in the world. Why? BUSINESS!!!
Big business...very big business. Nothing he said is wrong, its just not all bad. Doctors (esp. American doctors) are programmed from school to be instruments of big pharma. The worst thing for them is a healthy population.
I’m 40 and I take sometime as little as 125mg of test C a week. I train 5 to 6 times a week heavy and I feel just great. I see a lot of the comments saying they using high doses 500mg and up. I’ve always done low doses for long periods and in my opinion it’s the best for avoiding health issues.
I did 200mg for a year and didn’t feel too great until I dropped it to 100mg. I have a lot more energy and feel pretty good but have been wondering about going back up for a cycle to gain a little more muscle. I’m 41
Winter swimming gives good training to bloodcirculation system! Its proven to lower bloodpressure, when done regurlaly. Min 18seconds in water minimum. Give it a try!
I’m 34 and decided to use steroids for the first time recently. First cycle has been: 300mgs test, 75mgs tren and 40mg anavar on training days. Sick results.
I am 59 yrs. old and have been on TRT for 8 yrs. Started with 140 Mgs/week and had to come down to 100 mgs/week because my hematocrit and hemoglobin got a little high but everything is good now and I am strong and healthy. My cardiologist is administering and did a calcium test with none detected. I used to feel like shit when my testosterone was low. Did a couple of 2-3 month cycles(500 mgs. Sustanon and tried some oral turinabol anothertime) in my life(first one at 41 yrs. old) but never anything crazy, so far so good.
Thank you very much for this information mate, I'm 54 and wanted to start TRT 2 months ago so I went and did a full blood panel and found out I'm almost prediabetic, elevated LDLs, and not the best liver function, your information will help me optimise my bodily functions before I think about starting TRT, Cheers.
You need to clean up your diet. Pre diabetes is from too much sugar and processed carbs usually. I'm speaking from experience. Lost 40 lbs eliminating all processed carbs zero sugar and alcohol for 4 years.
Great topic but as far as i'm concerned an even better topic would be body building for those who are long term post gastric bypass but unfortunately there's not alot of info out there on this issue. I am of course specifically talking about the absorption issues with food and medicine and how it relates to bodybuilding...
I started using PED in my mid 30's I'm almost 50 and I micro dose test and tren I personally feel and look better now compared to ever, this being said I was already in good shape when I started. The problem is often that people don't take care of themselves for 4 decades and want a quick fix

I'm 57 and have been on cypionate for a year and a half. Switching to this blend. Cypionate 80mg, enanthate 80mg, propionate 80mg anyone had any experience using this and what were your results. Your the best Doc. You've taught me so much with your extremely educational videos. You've helped me more than any other resource out there. Thank you.
There is no point to being on both Cyp, Enth, and proprionate. Cyp and Enanthate are equivalent. And the proprionate causes injection site pain for no benefit. Cyp or Enanthate already create a spike in levels by day 2. The prop is just making the spike larger, and the dip larger too. Just take cyp or enanthate and be done with it!
I found it to be a rollercoaster being on sustanon that basically consists of the same sort of multi ester mix. I went to 2-3 times a week with just enanthate and that is way more stable. No mood swings, less aromatisation. Using a insuline needle 0,2 -0,3 hipshot method

Strange but I’m not longer depressed and training hard
@Gus Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a hormone that your body naturally produces in the adrenal gland. DHEA helps produce other hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. Natural DHEA levels peak in early adulthood and then slowly fall as you age.
would love to hear how much if any , change there have been registred after this, spec. since you feel great, which may itself mean a lot since neurology is closely related to endocrine.
@Gus For some it works wonders, for others it doesn't do much of anything. The good thing is that there are relatively few side effects associated with DHEA use so even if, in the end, it doesn't do much for you there is little risk in giving it a try.

You'll get more anabolic effect from having one big spike every day rather than spreading out the Anadrol. But at your age you are a fool to mess with such compounds. Sorry.
I’m 45 on 225mg testosterone cypionate weekly prescribed. What else should I use to combat the fatigue. I’d like to utilize this . I eat healthy and am drug free besides THC once in a while. I’m 6’4.5” 260lbs . With a Dad Bod . I’d like to start my second wind properly .
Pushing 60 and still doing proper cycles. Use your head and keep doses low. You can control cholesterol and blood pressure by seeing your dr and getting meds for it. I am on both and get blood work 2x a year. No problems
What BP meds? How do you adjust your BP dosage if you titrate up with your test and or steroid doses and your baseline BP dose is no longer sufficient to manage an elevated pressure? Does your doctor help you adjust or do you handle it yourself or is your BP unaffected if you increase anabolic/androgen burden?
I'd say start coming down. How many older guys have we seen die from steroid use? Dozens of high profile examples. You are an anomaly and that is a scary place to be.
@@BradRakes 4 years use i eat healthy and got my selfe checked out and i have other accessories at home so yes im good and i know what i need to do we have to be smart not many people does
High Blood pressure is a big one ....had to stop TRT (200mg week cyp) because of it ..... doctor gave me two options, either stop the TRT or go on blood pressure medication ....i stopped cold turkey and actually feel much better, then when I was on TRT (seems like i was always hyper) ....now i just focus on good sleep, diet, and low stress....seems to be working :)))
that doctor isn't living in reality. TRT won't make your blood pressure go crazy on 200mgs a week, I have 750mgs Test / 400mast for estrogen control and i've never had blood pressure issues. sounds like Diet is completely off which is 99.9% of the time with people saying it's the drugs causing it
If steroids are used carefully in therapeutic ranges especially if supervised by a doctor I feel they can be very useful to someone's health and well being to a point. Worst part is tho majority use them uneducated of what their doing and foolish way too much in dose and for too long of cycles. Best to avoid use but if you decide to use don't abuse and do things stupid. Take time to educate yourself and think everything through you'll most likely be ok. These vids are great information. Thanks for making them.
Anybody regardless of age that takes anabolic steroids and they're not even a pro bodybuilder or making a lot of money from their body is ignorant AF. Hahaha they're shortening their life to temporarily look bigger. Rocks in their heads.
@@johnklsc2233 TRT in normal range as that of a natural person 600 to 1000, but even if you produce a high testosterone level naturally as you get older you shorten your life. I think we are going to see things a lot different in a few years for longevity, extending life and people living well over 100.
@@johnklsc2233 You must not have watched and comprehended the video. He clearly stated that there's a difference between trt and taking anabolic steroids. TRT doesn't consist of pumping in test, dianabol, tren, deca, EQ, anadrol, etc.
It's like any medication, it's going to effect everyone differently. Some it'll shorten some it won't. look at people that smoke! Some live to be 90+. Others it kills by 55 or earlier. It's just going to depend on the individual and how it effects them. Look at all of the commercials on TV with just about every drug out there, it has the chance of killing you.
Steroids have been a game-changer in my fitness routine, providing the extra edge I needed to advance more rapidly. When used with careful planning and consideration for overall health, they can be a powerful tool for anyone serious about reaching their peak potential.
Test Enan is commonly used in hormone replacement therapy to address low testosterone levels, promoting muscle growth and improving overall well-being. Tren, on the other hand, greatly enhances muscle size and strength. Speeds up recovery from injuries as well.
Totally agree. Steroids helped me recover faster and maintain muscle mass, especially during intense training or after injury. It's amazing how they can support bone health as well, which is crucial for people with conditions like osteoporosis.
There’s no doubt to the benefits of steroids. Honestly, it has greatly impacted my life. It played a major role in achieving my desired physique. People should learn not to abuse these substances and act like they are all bad.
Hey everyone, I’m looking for reliable sources for both steroids and protein supplements. I know it’s crucial to be cautious with these, especially with steroids, so I want to make sure I’m getting them from trustworthy sources. For protein supplements, I’m also interested in recommendations for reputable brands. Any suggestions or advice on where to find safe and high quality options?

@@peterking3131 I'm 54. On trt for 14yrs. I was on the road to nowhere with low t. I'm good now
@@mitchellferre1652 Probably your T secretion was extremely low to start with. The danger of T is when numbers are not extremely low, but just on the lower side. Big difference.
@Peter King I blasted huge amounts of gear for two decades before going on trt for another 14yrs. My test levels were fine for years after I stopped blasting, until old age caught up with me. Drugs like tren give testosterone a bad reputation among people who are not knowledgeable.
@Peter King each individual must be evaluated regarding their test levels, how well they feel, energy, libido and performance, and other existing health problems before going on trt. Surprisingly you won't feel much of a difference between extremely low and slightly lower test levels. If you feel like crap, you feel like crap. Each individual has a sweet spot where they feel normal again. It's not always where you end up with a endocrinologist. I had a good doc , she relocated. Her replacement said 300ngl test was perfect but it was like i wasn't even on trt. I told him he was relieved of duty, fired. I take care of writing my own prescription now lol. I'm lucky to have a great primary care doc who does bloodwork every year. Never been healthier.
So, you next video is going to be on Understanding the benefits of Steroids after 40?
I'm going on 37 and I have suffered greatly severe since the first dose. About 2 weeks after starting the very first thing I noticed was my memory was SIGNIFICANTLY better then on top of that about 3 weeks in my libedo went through the roof then the weight gain i gained about 15lbs of fat free mass and looked significantly better. Who wants a better brain better sex and look better, not me.

What you on?
I bought some Sustanon 450 and have been taking 1/2 a CC a week. I went to do my double red blood donation yesterday and both my hematocrit and blood pressure were great (albeit on the high side of normal). I'm always tempted to do more but now I'm thinking, "Why?" I feel great, I'm still strong and have lots of energy for 53. I don't drink, smoke, do any other drugs, eat a really clean diet, and make sleep a priority. For me, there doesn't seem to be any upside to doing more.
Why? Because some man likes to build a lot more muscle than other and steroids help and I'm pretty sure that you are not a bodybuilder
If your bloods are on the “high side of normal” then they’re not “great” …. Especially given that what’s regarded as normal blood pressure can still bring health problems
if you feel good...dont
If your BP and hematocrit are on the high side of normal that is not 'great'! Secondly, there is no such thing as a steroid dosed at 450mg per ml. It's not possible to dissolve that much steroid into that little solution. Typically 200mg/ml is the standard. 300mg/ml can be achieved if the preparation includes extra alcohol to dissolve the extra steroid, and those shots are painful as a result. Most likely the stuff you have is underdosed and that is a good thing at 53yrs old. Stop taking underground shit and just get on TRT from a doctor.
Zzzz
I have been taking 250-500mg of Sustanon for at least five years now. I’m 45 and I started because my Test was low due to abusing roids in my 20’s. I feel so much better since starting the TRT. My BP is really high but I’m taking medz from my doctor which brings it down. My LDL was high until I started a Ketogenic diet. I tried to go off the Sustanon but I found I had no energy, sex drive, and I just felt like a slug. I don’t think I’ll ever go off them. I know it’s shedding a few years off my life but I would rather look and feel good for my remaining years than be depressed with a limp dick.
Bring your dose down slowly to 200mg/wk at most. It will be an adjustment, then you feel great. You are not shedding a few years of life but could possibly forgoing decades of it. Your body is giving you clues. Listen to it.
Oh well 😆😄😀 idk why guys do that ! They also want it all at once and pay for it later on some the like jarras of starting point in trt first the. Work ur way up ! imm54 and on trt I just raise my trt lol I’m doing it now bc I always knew guys who were really doing big doses and abused it are now either dead or on the cusp!

Im 43 years old. On 250 sust week. But still skinny . Does 500 sust give one more mass?
@@unassailable6138 500 is a very noticeable difference. 250 is only maintenance level TRT. 500 is when you see actual Anabolic effects in the gym as far as muscle and lean mass. 750 is when you really notice it. Just watch your Blood Pressure and take prostate support. Costco has a good one.
Best thing to do is low dose and work your arse of like old school lifters today there lazy and just inject more drugs but taking short cuts may get you what you want but come at a cost and sometimes that cost is your health and life
I'm 68 and have been on TRT since my early 40s. I continue to add deca every few weeks which eliminates my joint pain. Although I've done full cycles in my younger days, I wouldn't do a full cycle now, because there's no reason to. The TRT and occasional deca work just fine for me.
I'm 66 and started TRT about 5 months ago, it's been great. Been thinking about adding a relatively low dose of Deca...for my joints and a little boost at the gym. What dose do you take and how often? Any sides? Mostly concerned about possible effects on my mood.
Right!! I’m 62, just got done with a complete right shoulder replacement surgery, Doctors say I’ll be needing a left one too so, I’m gonna run some decca 300, & sustanon 250 ( I’ll start about 3/4 of 1ML) then peak on a full ml per week, for a 12 week cycle….Want to build up before the next surgery because, you’re laid up for several months…..Can’t stand wasting away Brüder…..🏋🏻♀️💪🏼😎
I typically add 100-200mg once or twice a year for about 12 weeks. I take it until the mental sides starts with is about 10-12 weeks. It makes me bitchy and grumpy. Only take it when back and elbow pain starts to become a problem. Usually pain is good to go for a few months after I stop.
Nanrdrolone (Deca) causes heart cell death. When those cells die, the immune system sends white blood cells to clean them up. The result is a heart with a dead, thickened mass that no longer beats normally. Deca is not safe. It is actually one of the worst steriods out there. Stay on the TRT, no deca.
@@jeffreystinger Get off the juice. Why do need a shoulder surgery? Perhaps lifting heavy weights?
You have a golden opportunity to publish some case studies! My hypothesis: in steroid naive men over 60, even a couple of cycles would trigger a significant proliferation of myonuclei. These enduring myonuclei will, adjusted for activity level, help to counteract sarcopenia into old age, and you will also see fewer falls and fractures. Short-term effects like mental acuity scores would be fascinating enough (and don't require biobsies; the clinical evidence for testosterone improving "brain fog" and memory is ambiguous, but there's a ton of anecdotal evidence. The world needs better data!

Doc thanks for keeping my urge to restart TRT at bay. I was on TRT for a few years (at 50ish) and absolutely loved it. Mostly because of how I looked and how strong it made me. Problem is I had/have all the underlying issues that TRT exacerbates like the hypertension,bad blood work markers, family history of heart disease etc. My TRT clinic kept telling me all was fine but your videos were telling me otherwise. I quit a few year ago and I feel different now. Outside I look and am weak like a 60 year old man (cus I am). But inside I feel better and don’t have the anxiety that I’m shortening my lifespan with a drug/hormone.I’ve come very close to getting back on a few times but when I get the urge I go back and watch your warning videos and come back to my senses. I want to thank you for promoting common sense and providing this valuable educational info.

The myth of TRT being healthy is total BS. I know from personal experience. People get addicted to the look and feel and ignore what's important. If I could do TRT with only the benefit of the muscles and strength I would do it.

Just a little heads up for some in the comments posting the doses they take. Anything over 200mg/week testosterone TRT. Even 200mg/ week will send most men into a superphysiological range. Don't kid yourself it's trt.
Proper medical diagnosis is required, proper blood tests and monitoring. Don't get me wrong. If you have had low T and know what it feels like and the impact it has on your brain then TRT can be a life saver. Also having had very low T over a long period of time and then going on TRT I do understand how you can get caught up in the 'just a little more might make me feel even better', mentality. It pops into my head on occasion, I've even had thoughts of what would a proper cycle feel like?? Howeverif I started where would I stop?????
TRT is essentially about finding the minimum dose to cure your signs and symptoms.
Good luck, stay healthy.
Well put. I've been on TRT 12 years. I get the temptation to play around with dosages.

The mindless compliance of those around me completely changed my expectations of the future. It may turn around, but not in my lifetime.

Im a 57 yr. old guy who has done 3 cycles of steroids in my much younger years, and have always been a musclehead. My situation has changed recently...DRASTICALLY!!! I just got off opiods, went to detox myself and i am now 127 lbs.!!! My lifelong average weight has been 190+ my whole life. I am seriously thinking of running to get some Winstrol and jumping into a Gym for the next 14-16 weeks just to get myself back to health!!
Excellent video Doc!! I appreciate your passion for treatment, and educational content.. I think I speak on behalf of most middle-aged men.
When you are taking testosterone make sure you men are checking your PSA levels.
Best time to start if your healthy .. keep you going like a soldier for another 20 years using mild doses. I started at 40..im now 44 an all my bloods are perfect like a 20-year-old athlete an I feel like a stallion an only sleep 6 hours an im wide awake
Your an outlier. But so am i
The "best" time to start is never! Unless you want to become impotent, sterile, bald, with shriveled balls, hairy like a monkey, bitch tits, bloated, fat, high blood pressure , liver disease, heart disease, moody, blood disorders, and on it and other drugs for life!🙋🙏

Do you take fish oil if so how much
What's your eGFR? Only issue I've ever had in 27 years
You better answer me
@@William-ph1xe lipid stabil is better than fish oil. If that's why you're asking about fish oil
I'm confused? If I take TRT only Do I worry about everything you are talking about ? Thanks
The short answer is yes, particularly if you are an older guy. Everyone is effected by drugs differently and while someone you know, or read about may be able to use stupid amounts of steroids, for others even just TRT can cause issues. That's why you should work with a doctor even if you're just using low-dose Test.
@@snuffcore9686 but having low testosterone is not healthy also.
@@flex8707 Yep. It can cause issues for some too.. Notice I said that was the short answer. Getting ones hormones balanced just right is complex, and can be difficult, hence why I just gave a brief amswer..
51 year's taking anavar and clenbutarol together got more gains in 4 weeks then 4 years
Just say no to steroids, you'll thank yourself later.
Trt is having healthy normal dose of testosterone cause having low testosterone is unhealthy
@@flex8707 If you have to inject it, it's not healthy.

I LOVE ANABOLIC DOC!!!!!!!!!!!!! MSW 2023?????
Still they use roids in pharmacy. Also, if roids are that bad make a vid on alcohol, cigarettes or even the poluted air we are breating and a mild test or primo cycle is a birthday party for the body. Remember, roids are illegal, alcohol and cigarettes which kill millions every year are perfectly available almost everywhere in the world. Why? BUSINESS!!!
Big business...very big business. Nothing he said is wrong, its just not all bad. Doctors (esp. American doctors) are programmed from school to be instruments of big pharma. The worst thing for them is a healthy population.
I’m 40 and I take sometime as little as 125mg of test C a week. I train 5 to 6 times a week heavy and I feel just great. I see a lot of the comments saying they using high doses 500mg and up. I’ve always done low doses for long periods and in my opinion it’s the best for avoiding health issues.
I did 200mg for a year and didn’t feel too great until I dropped it to 100mg. I have a lot more energy and feel pretty good but have been wondering about going back up for a cycle to gain a little more muscle. I’m 41
I did a bulk and added anavar. Just 1 a day with 125mg test and I got bigger fast. Then I just add some Hcg after finishing with the anavar.
@@JeffCopperHead thanks brother 💪
Winter swimming gives good training to bloodcirculation system! Its proven to lower bloodpressure, when done regurlaly. Min 18seconds in water minimum. Give it a try!
50 on Anavar, Proviron, Clenbuterol and Cytomel 😂 and waiting for Winstrol. Very mild!
I'm 70 never used anabolic steroids, after watching your video I won't. Thank steroids for the knowledge, ❤
I’m 34 and decided to use steroids for the first time recently. First cycle has been: 300mgs test, 75mgs tren and 40mg anavar on training days. Sick results.
I am 59 yrs. old and have been on TRT for 8 yrs. Started with 140 Mgs/week and had to come down to 100 mgs/week because my hematocrit and hemoglobin got a little high but everything is good now and I am strong and healthy. My cardiologist is administering and did a calcium test with none detected. I used to feel like shit when my testosterone was low. Did a couple of 2-3 month cycles(500 mgs. Sustanon and tried some oral turinabol anothertime) in my life(first one at 41 yrs. old) but never anything crazy, so far so good.
you ever thought about adding RAD 140 ? it has some positive side effects
@@Samesosass 🤣
Enjoyed the strength gains of rad. But didn’t like the hit to my blood pressure
You are doing it right!
Thank you very much for this information mate, I'm 54 and wanted to start TRT 2 months ago so I went and did a full blood panel and found out I'm almost prediabetic, elevated LDLs, and not the best liver function, your information will help me optimise my bodily functions before I think about starting TRT, Cheers.
You need to clean up your diet. Pre diabetes is from too much sugar and processed carbs usually. I'm speaking from experience. Lost 40 lbs eliminating all processed carbs zero sugar and alcohol for 4 years.
Clean diet
Great topic but as far as i'm concerned an even better topic would be body building for those who are long term post gastric bypass but unfortunately there's not alot of info out there on this issue. I am of course specifically talking about the absorption issues with food and medicine and how it relates to bodybuilding...
Not a good idea just enjoy life.
I do test cyp 100mg and deca 150mg per week, I feel amazing, sex drive like in my 20s and most importantly no depression
I started using PED in my mid 30's I'm almost 50 and I micro dose test and tren I personally feel and look better now compared to ever, this being said I was already in good shape when I started. The problem is often that people don't take care of themselves for 4 decades and want a quick fix

What gets me they legalized marijuana but still won’t allow steroid use in 68 I would like to do it
Well for 100 years marijuana caused "reefer madness." Despite the fact that we know all that was propaganda, its still not legal in every state, or on the federal level.
I’m 50 and have been using steroids 6 months on 6 months off since I was 23! Never missed a year!! I get blood work every year and have had 0 issues
What’s the point of that 6 on 6 off I don’t get it at all
thats a super long cycle....worked for you, i think most men should be 2 weeks on off or 1 week or 1 month cycle like bodybuilders
@@lunam7249 but it works just change the test after 3 months to another test ..then after 6 months leave it alone for a while

Woman watching this. He just said I'm a man. 😞
I'm 57 and have been on cypionate for a year and a half. Switching to this blend. Cypionate 80mg, enanthate 80mg, propionate 80mg anyone had any experience using this and what were your results. Your the best Doc. You've taught me so much with your extremely educational videos. You've helped me more than any other resource out there. Thank you.
Test is test....... Ester means nothing once saturated.
Cypionate is a slow ester and propionate is fast. So you'll have to inject prop more often.
There is no point to being on both Cyp, Enth, and proprionate. Cyp and Enanthate are equivalent. And the proprionate causes injection site pain for no benefit. Cyp or Enanthate already create a spike in levels by day 2. The prop is just making the spike larger, and the dip larger too. Just take cyp or enanthate and be done with it!
I found it to be a rollercoaster being on sustanon that basically consists of the same sort of multi ester mix. I went to 2-3 times a week with just enanthate and that is way more stable. No mood swings, less aromatisation. Using a insuline needle 0,2 -0,3 hipshot method
How did it go brother 💪
I love the anabolic doc but I can't be there only one that thinks he says the same things in every video... Them and Us to make comments and buy his app. I get it, but I always feel disappointed when the video is over cuz I thought I'd hear something new but didn't.
47yrs old. I’ve been on and off AAS for 15yrs. I did some heavy cycles in my 30’s with experience and knowledge I never had any serious issues aside from HBP and elevated liver enzymes. Which I corrected. Stay safe and healthy.
Yeah buddy

Hair loss is genetic. Steroids doesn't cause it, but it will accelerate it.
I’m 45 and have been using testosterone cipionate for 1.5 years but only 200mg every week to two week and got kind of fed up with injecting. So, I made the decision to come off and just started using DHEA and fee so much better than the. TRT believe it or not DHEA works great for me but will do a blood test asap
What is your dosage per week
@@robertstephens9323 I use 50 mg every other day on the dhea. The trt was affecting me mentally and making me feel depressed. Once I started the dhea I was soooo much happier and energetic and I know my body perfers it. TRT was good for the first month or so but then it started affecting me mentally. Strange but I’m not longer depressed and training hard
@Gus Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a hormone that your body naturally produces in the adrenal gland. DHEA helps produce other hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. Natural DHEA levels peak in early adulthood and then slowly fall as you age.
would love to hear how much if any , change there have been registred after this, spec. since you feel great, which may itself mean a lot since neurology is closely related to endocrine.
@Gus For some it works wonders, for others it doesn't do much of anything. The good thing is that there are relatively few side effects associated with DHEA use so even if, in the end, it doesn't do much for you there is little risk in giving it a try.
jeeez get to the points zzzzzzzzz

Just use test.
Yep. So much crap being promoted by internet conmen for likes and subscribers and kids who dont know better.
I'm a 53 year young Bodybuilder. I did 2 half assed oral only cycles when I was young which I prematurely abandoned. Last year I did a 10 week cucle of zsustanon and Anadrol. I only tool 100mg of sus and the Anadrol I cut into 4 pieces so I took one quart every 5 hours or so. I have never felt better in my life, no mood swings or agression nor panic attacks. I plan to do another cycle soon.
just take your 50mg drol once a day. the half life is longer than 6 hours
@@edwardwhite221 He probably thought it was D-Bol which has a half-life of 4/5 hours
You'll get more anabolic effect from having one big spike every day rather than spreading out the Anadrol. But at your age you are a fool to mess with such compounds. Sorry.

In Brazil some doctos are using Decadurabolin in people over 80 years, man and woman , improving their quality live. What do you think about this ?
Test (when used properly) can be the fountain of youth.
He is taking something himself 👌
Pushing 60 and still doing proper cycles. Use your head and keep doses low. You can control cholesterol and blood pressure by seeing your dr and getting meds for it. I am on both and get blood work 2x a year. No problems
What BP meds? How do you adjust your BP dosage if you titrate up with your test and or steroid doses and your baseline BP dose is no longer sufficient to manage an elevated pressure? Does your doctor help you adjust or do you handle it yourself or is your BP unaffected if you increase anabolic/androgen burden?
I'd say start coming down. How many older guys have we seen die from steroid use? Dozens of high profile examples. You are an anomaly and that is a scary place to be.
I've seriously considered a single cycle of primabolin to get a boost. See if I can tighten up a bit.

Why not just lower your dose?
@@erics.5785 I think it's a bad doctor. Most docs don't have a clue what they are doing
If steroids are used carefully in therapeutic ranges especially if supervised by a doctor I feel they can be very useful to someone's health and well being to a point. Worst part is tho majority use them uneducated of what their doing and foolish way too much in dose and for too long of cycles. Best to avoid use but if you decide to use don't abuse and do things stupid. Take time to educate yourself and think everything through you'll most likely be ok. These vids are great information. Thanks for making them.
Anybody regardless of age that takes anabolic steroids and they're not even a pro bodybuilder or making a lot of money from their body is ignorant AF. Hahaha they're shortening their life to temporarily look bigger. Rocks in their heads.

Trt?
@@johnklsc2233 TRT in normal range as that of a natural person 600 to 1000, but even if you produce a high testosterone level naturally as you get older you shorten your life. I think we are going to see things a lot different in a few years for longevity, extending life and people living well over 100.
@@johnklsc2233 You must not have watched and comprehended the video. He clearly stated that there's a difference between trt and taking anabolic steroids. TRT doesn't consist of pumping in test, dianabol, tren, deca, EQ, anadrol, etc.
It's like any medication, it's going to effect everyone differently. Some it'll shorten some it won't. look at people that smoke! Some live to be 90+. Others it kills by 55 or earlier. It's just going to depend on the individual and how it effects them. Look at all of the commercials on TV with just about every drug out there, it has the chance of killing you.
