    Weight gain/bloat day of injection

    If I dose the diuretic, should I do this when I take the injection? Also I sweated like a pig earlier, ran in 34 degree heat for 90 mins so should have dropped a ton of water? Systemlord - I went 25mg 3 times a week but still happened. How do I combat the aldosterone?

    Yes please do as this was a real concern of mine and kept me from going low carb for a long time. I was mostly concerned around fueling for and during races as I usually carb load and then take on 70-80g of carbs every hour for any races over 3 hours and 50g of carbs per hour for 2-3 hour...

    Last Throw of the Dice - advise on Arimidex dosage

    I wish we had more options over here so I could try different esters but we are stuck with sustanon unless I get it on the black market and then no idea of it’s legit etc…. When you say a mix of long and short, would sust fall into that?

    Thanks for coming back to me @Systemlord I've sent a message on these points and waiting now, unfortunately in Dubai we are very limited with TRT places and most are just Endo's prescribing and it's difficult to get dialled in.
