As I switch over to cruise mode for a few months I've noticed a couple of things while on

1) I've become a poop factory

* I'm not sure if this is directly related to the test or the increased calories but I'm no longer a 1 a day guy.

I'll be lowering my calories to a 500 calories/day deficit so I'm kind of hoping for a break from the toilet.


2) General lethargy.

* My need for sleep has doubled. I'm growing like a weed and I've gotten stronger but I am seriously tired. I think I understand why teenage boys are lazy.


I'm hoping the reduction to 200 mg per week will bring my energy levels back up for a while.


3) I'm easily winded.

* Adding 30 pounds in 4 months has not done anything good for my cardio.

For the next 12-16 weeks I'm adding 45 minutes of cardio 6 times a week to my regular workouts lean down and get my cardio back.


Thoughts?


Thanks.

My cardio ability has drastically increased since I started my first run at test going on 8 weeks now. I do notice some lethargy, I think it has to do with the calorie increase and the rate at which I have been growing. Feels amazing still though. I cant believe I never used test before.....I feel like superman.

Poop factory??...lol. Could be the increase in food intake and fiber the last few months.. eating more veggies now than a few months ago??

Lethargy could be directly related to the increase in bodyweight and your lack of cardio... 30lbs is a lot for the vitals to catch up to in such a short period of time.

Up the cardio, water intake and try some green tea for energy...you should be fine once you drop 5-10 lbs and get the cardio going again.

Are you taking anything for estrogen?? How's the sex drive??

thanks for the inputs,

Was taking adex .5 eod for a while but bloat seemed to settle down once my blood levels peaked so I ended up droping the adex.

Sex drive has been strong and consistent throughout. A significant improvement over my normal 40 year old test levels.

Sadly I'm already a caffiene junie so I'm not sure the green tea would help much.
