I'm definitely not a bodybuilder and have never completed a bulk or cut phase. Just a weightlifter for about 25 years now. Pretty consistent diet about 1 gram per lb of protein, creatine, basic multivitamins.

I'm almost 40 and have been experiencing symptoms of low T for several years so I had bloodwork last week at my primary doctor. I feel very fatigued and have almost zero drive. I've worked out for almost 20...
