I turn 40 tomorrow. Been feeling like I’m 70 for years now. If my wife hadn’t done 4 in the corps, she’d of left me long ago. She deserves more. Al Bundy is a prophet, I am his disciple.
I started lifting in 9th grade. By the time I was 24, I was pulling 6 plates for 5 reps, incline bench was 365x6, squats 4 platesx8 reps, OHP 275x4, barbell curls at 245x5. I was 6’1” and 245-55 at around 12-15% bf. 33” waist. 20 3/4” arms. I could even dunk.
I blew my RC out doing seated dumbbell presses, dropped a 120lb db on my thigh and foot, arm left dislocated until I popped it back in. I just kind of lost motivation.. then I became a dedicated family man and fast forward about 15 years and I’m ready to dedicate myself again.
It’s not just for me, it’s for my family. To be as healthy as I can be. I’m 274 lbs with a 40” waist. My arms are almost 18”. I feel like hell. My sex drive drives like a Pinto.
My bloodwork came back, 439 total T with a range of 264-916. 8.1 Free with a range of 8.7-25.1.
I am also borderline vitamin D deficient at 39.2 with 30-100 range. All other values were fine.. hematocrit at 45.1. Glucose was 98 though with a range of 65-99... anyone have an insight on that?
The clinic I’m going through is headed by a legit Urilogist. They’re going to start me on 100mg/week of Cyp. They’re willing to adjust up if needed, but I prefer to stay as conservative as possible and just dial things in.
I plan on easing into things.. I’m hoping muscle memory will take over at some point. Goals are to get my waist line back around 34 and bf% around 15. Not going to dunk or squat even 3 plates again as my knees are arthritic.. just one day at a time with the long run in mind. What is to be will be.
Feel free to give any advice you can, I’m no newbie, but I am always willing to learn and try things out.
Nutrition, workouts, sex moves... bring it.
Skol!
