    That kind of makes sense. I tried going off hrt myself a few years ago, maybe 4 years ago or so and tried everything and my test levels stayed low. But maybe that is because I was born with low test levels to begin with. But I could really not tolerate that low testosterone feeling. Tired, depressed, low confidence, non existent or very limited sex drive, sore joints and poor recovery. I also felt more anxious and had trouble sleeping. Once I got back to hrt, life felt good again and all those symptoms went away. MY whole life in general has actually improved on hrt and not just the gym. And to me quality of life is very important.

    But good luck bro. Maybe you will have better luck than me recovering as everyone is diffirent when iot comes to recovery. But I personally feel that hrt is very safe and having healthy test levels is healthier than having low test levels. MY blood work has always come back better on healthier test levels compared to low test. Life always feels better on test

    Is there any evidence that this method will achieve the desired results?Or is the real reason the increased costs to the medical system from 7-10 day visits?If you look at the history of care concerning men's health and especially sexual health over the past 20 years there are some things that range from amusing to downright frightening in their ignorance.

    Currently single. No wife anymore lol. It's after my breakup that I got myself out of shape from falling into a slump. But at the same time That was one of the reasons for my ultimate motivation to get back in top shape I don't count the ester weight. I just draw 300 mgs at 150 mgs twice a week. Mon-Thu. So I would guess the total test minus the is about 215 mgs net testosterone since since it's 72% testosterone minus the enanthate ester. I have never been a believer in high dosages when it comes to quality.

    Here are a couple of pics of my legs. They are my weak bodypart, but working on that. My legs never really improved until I started training them twice a week. They are also my strongest bodypart, but my leg genetics are just shit. They should be much bigger the way I am training them.

    7-10 day visits? I do all the jabs myself, I dont need a doc or nurse for that. He has dealt with hundreds of cases of ex athletes and body builders he has told me. He is a pretty cool guy and knows the deal with what goes on in the athletic world, hes also a fairly young guy as well. I will trust his judgement until I have reason not to.

    This is my current leg routine and the most effective one that has worked best for me

    -leg extensions

    5 sets for 20 reps with 180 for sets 1 and 2 and 195 lbs for sets 3-4-5 ( 1 min rest in between sets)

    Squats (warm up with 135 and 185 for 2 sets) I do not count those as working sets

    set 1 225 lbs for 20 reps (2 min rest)
    set 2 285 lbs for 20 reps (2 min rest)
    set 3 300 lbs for 15 reps (2 min rest)
    set 4 300 lbs for 15 reps (2 min rest)
    set 5 225 lbs for 30 reps

    Leg press

    set 1 540 lbs for 20 reps (2 min rest)
    set 2 720 lbs for 20 reps (2 min rest)
    set 3 900 lbs for 15 reps (2 min rest)
    set 4 900 lbs for 15 reps (2 min rest)
    set 5 540 lbs for 30 reps

    Reverse leg curl

    set 1 120 lbs for 15 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 2 135 lbs for 10 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 3 135 lbs for 10 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 4 120 lbs for 15 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 5 105 lbs for 20 rps (1 minute rest)

    Standing reverse single leg curl

    set 1 60 lbs for 15 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 2 75 lbs for 12 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 3 75 lbs for 12 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 4 75 lbs for 12 reps (1 minute rest)
    set 5 60 lbs for 20 rps (1 minute rest)

    I do a total of 25 sets and high volume sets. I never responded well to lower reps and after reading how certain people responded much better with higher reps, I decided to give it a try and the results were incredible. I have been doing this routine once per week and the results were decent. After switching to doing this exact routine twice per week. Every Wed and Saturday the results exploded. So that is the only workout that has ever worked for my legs.

    Do you do the same workout all the time twice a week?

    Great transformation too! What are the plans now that you look good? I always tell people when they ask if they should bulk more before cutting down, I tell them to diet down and get lean before you try to bulk, lol. Your body is just more efficient at building muscle when your lean.
