Testosterone Cypionate and Nandrolone Decanoate

[Gman86]

Nandrolone is hit or miss for me. Strength gain is notable, reduction in both joint pain and general inflammation is amazing. It sometimes affects my mood by increasing depression and or hyper vigilance (I.e. suspicious of others). 19-nors seem to affect people's mood differently.

Ya 19 nors absolutely have the reputation of affecting people differently. Wish this wasn’t the case, but it just is what it is, unfortunately

What protocols have u tried it with? Like dosages of each compound u were using at the time. I assume u were using nandrolone with a test base, each time u’ve tried it

Thank you. It is good that you have a healthy diet while you are young and will avoid many health problems later. How do you like FSD? I love it and am looking forward to it getting better as I age and my driving skills diminish.

At age 63 I started injecting 100 mg testosterone cypionate once a week. The first year I gained 16 pounds muscle and lost 4 pounds fat, going from 193 pounds with 20% body fat to 205 pounds with 16% body fat. All body fat measurements are with a "dexa scan". I gradually increased to 280 mg/wk over the next five years and don't plan to go any higher so as to not increase my estradiol. I don't want to take an AI.

I started the carnivore diet five years ago when I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. For my entire time as a carnivore my body fat has ranged from 6.1% to 7.8%. I can squat and deadlift more weight at age 70 and 182 pounds than I could at age 64 and 205 pounds.

I donate 500 grams whole blood at a time, which is about a pint. My wife eats very little red meat and has donated more than 20 gallons of blood without any problems. I have only donated 10 gallons.

Don’t get me started talking about teslas lol. Have had mine since 2019, and have used the autopilot feature every single day since I’ve owned it. Everyone that drives in my car is freaked out by it, and get super nervous when it’s in autopilot, but like I said, I’ve used it everyday for the past 5 years, and know exactly what it’s capable of, and not capable of, and I always feel extremely comfortable/ safe when using it. That thing has like 20 cameras/ sensors all over it. I trust those over my two eyes all day lol. Just makes long drives extremely easy. There’s times that I have to drive my girl’s car long distances, and man, it’s exhausting! Lol. It’s so annoying and tiring having to keep my foot pressed down on the gas pedal the whole time, and have to start perfectly inbetween the lines the whole time. I know this is obv first world problem sh*t, but still lol. After driving the Tesla for 5 years, I look at people next to me on the highway having to control the gas pedal and steer literally the entire time while they’re driving like they’re from the stone age hahah. I genuinely feel bad for them lol. I’m like, man, that must suck lol. It’s just funny what we can get used to as humans, and how getting used to different things can change our reference points. But anyways, like I said, don’t get me started talking about teslas. I could go in for days lol

Good to hear that ur doing better than ever at the gym while on the carnivore diet. Super encouraging, as the only thing preventing me from going full carnivore is that I don’t want to see my gym performance/ endurance decrease at all, and I want to maximize hypertrophy. There’s no denying that muscle hypertrophy is easier/ quicker when carbs/ multiple insulin spikes throughout the day are involved, but it’s good to know that I might not need to worry about gym performance, as much as I thought.

And that’s also great to hear that neither u or ur wife have had any low iron symptoms, donating as much as u both do. I do believe there’s a lot of health benefits to donating blood, other than simply lowering RBC’s, HCT and HGB levels. Plus it obv helps so many people out there

I usually run 180 mg testosterone and 50 nandrolone per week. Any more than that of nandrolone and I get very paranoid. I absolutely love the anti-inflammatory effect it gives me.

Just started this protocol about 10 days ago:
200mg Test C (100mg Mon & Thur), 100mg Nandrolone Decanoate 1x / week (Sat), & 60mg of Raloxifene / day for some old gynecomastia <- seems to be working I also threw in .5mg of Adex 3x/ week, but I'm not sure it's necessary with the Raloxifene.. I'll test and find out. Opinions?
I think I feel a slight increase in strength and pain relief. It has only been a short time so we'll see. I realize that ND is a slow acting compound so it's probably not doing much yet.

Doing something similar here in my first log.

Looking forward to following along and seeing how you like this protocol. Thanks for sharing.
