    Fast Heartbeat from Cialis?

    I had silent migraines when I first started tadalafil. I couldn’t take 5mg per day without having this side effect. Then someone suggested starting much slower. So I took 2.5mg eod and did this for a month with just a couple headaches. Then I went to 2.5mg daily for a month. Eventually I was...

    To be fair, systemlord said doctor lottery. IOW why spend way too much time searching for a doc when Defy can help you. I use the nedicine coach and really like the autonomy.

    Nashtide is gonna lean bulk...

    I’m happy with my current ab routine. I do mix it up every now and then. Today I did a few sets of Paloff presses. I also use the TRX apparatus from time to time. I use the flavorless powder in my smoothie. If I’m just having a shake with almond milk, then I like a flavor. I’m currently using...

    Cold hands, cold feet? Maybe Raynaud's

    Raynauds is fairly easy to diagnose. Along with cold fingers and toes, you see color changes such as red, white and/or bluish fingers and toes. There are also two forms. The primary disease and a syndrome as part of another disorder.

    What would you do with these symptoms/lab results/goals? Need input please

    You are dealing with a bunch of low T symptoms. You need to give TRT serious thought. If fertility is a concern I would do two things. First, I would donate some sperm before starting TRT and second, I would use hcg right from the beginning.

    Nashtide is gonna lean bulk...

    Thanks again for the feedback. I have several fused lumbar vertebrae with a pair of Harrington rods. As a result, I have very weak lower abs. The hanging knee raises and the captains chair are really challenging. What I can do is use an decline bench and lift my hips up using my abs. I ordered...

    I ordered some of the true nutrition whey. I agree on the abs showing sooner if they are pronounced. I can definitely feel them under there somewhere! What does your core routine look like? Right now I’m doing 3 sets of cable crunches. 3 sets of ab rollouts. 3 sets of Russian twists on the...

    Understanding Test Levels and Muscle Retention/Gains

    I’m familiar with the concept of mTor. The problem is I have a life outside of exercising, so if I’m going to do cardio, it either needs to be before or after my lifting. So it seems like after is preferable to before.

    Understanding Test Levels and Muscle Retention/Gains

    I always do cardio after lifting. I’m glad that’s the preferred method.

    Hematocrit Up - Asking For Thoughts

    Thanks. My diet has been pretty regular. I’m just starting a little diet but that doesn’t kick in until tomorrow. I really don’t know what it was last year, but it was wnl.

    Understanding Test Levels and Muscle Retention/Gains

    Starting TRT later in life, this is my gym experience. First, I’m super motivated to hit the gym since being on TRT. Second, I am stronger which allows me to lift heavier thus helping with gains. Third, I feel like I recover faster. But I don’t feel like TRT has helped a ton in muscle gains.

    Hematocrit Up - Asking For Thoughts

    I usually do my TRT labs in the morning, but I don’t fast for those labs. No need to fast for CBC either. When I retest, I’ll be sure to drink enough water beforehand.

    I’m not really worried about this, so I will probably just wait a few weeks and retest. Thanks.

    Hematocrit Up - Asking For Thoughts

    I am a huge water drinker. I did the labs at 7:45am so I guess I could have been a tad dehydrated, but I have my fasting labs done the same way every year. I had a cup of black coffee around 6:30am that morning.

    Hematocrit Up - Asking For Thoughts

    Vince, I’ve been on TRT 4 years and this is the first time I’ve had this issue. I’m not in love with the idea of daily injections, but will do it if it will reduce my hct.

    Hematocrit Up - Asking For Thoughts

    Just got back from my yearly physical. Everything was perfect except for a slightly elevated hematocrit at 53. What is the consensus best way to lower hct other than donating blood? Right now I inject 50mg Tcyp E3.5D. Would smaller more frequent injections be the way to go or is lowering dose...

    New to group Question on HCG after age 60

    I use pregnyl for the last year or so. Prior to that I was using a local compound hcg. I don’t notice any difference between the two. My balls are full and happy. I’m 57.

    Okay here I go...starting BF % is 14.6. My goal is to see my abs. Whatever that bf is. Plan is to reduce calories moderately so that I lose fat without losing too much lean body mass. So I will modify my morning smoothie and reduce the current calories by 150. Then on my four non workout days...

    New to group Question on HCG after age 60

    I’m in my late 50’s and I use a small amount of hcg (250iu twice weekly). I use it primarily to keep my balls full. Shrinkage did not appeal to me.

    martial arts for seniors

    I was kinda joking about the gun although I do carry every day. The problem is when I’m going out and know I’m going to have a drink I can’t bring the gun. So I picked up a stun gun. This thing is the scariest piece of equipment I’ve ever seen. I think I’d rather be shot! I earned a black belt...

    martial arts for seniors

    Good old school boxing is an incredible workout and really fun. Sparring is as close to real as an actual fight. Admittedly, boxing isn’t the best self defense art, but neither are most martial arts. If you really want to learn self defense, then Brazilian jujitsu or Krav Maga probably provide...

    The benefits of long term use of Cialis

    I started low and slow. I took 1mg eod for a couple weeks then 2.5mg eod for a couple of weeks. Then 2.5 ed for a couple of weeks. Then 3.5mg ed for a couple of weeks. Then I moved to 5mg ed. It really took two months before I was up to 5mg daily. It was worth the wait to avoid the silent...

    I generally will have a glass of whiskey or a beer most every night. No issues at all.
