Do you perceive 5 years as the longest you should be on, or can be on safely? | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5207 posts | I would be suprised if any bodybuilders ever come off. Honestly, I hear many stay on for years and if they decide to go off heavy use, then it is TRT for life. | ||

 Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25565 posts Administrator | oh , I just picked 5 years from what sam said , I have heard that 1 cycle can f**k you up and some guys can do 10 years and recover. personally I think when you go past '2 x cycles' a year with proper PCT to '10 months on with a 2 month cruise' that's when the alarm bells start to ring. | ||

Everyone competitive bodybuilder I've ever known (probably about 30), barr 1-2 used to come off pretty regularly, albeit for periods of only 6-weeks-ish. I don't think they'd use any more juice than strongman either, at least not at a national level. | ||

Member 5268, 136 posts SQ 205, BP 125, DL 240570.0 kgs @ 106kgs UnEq | Sam, may I ask (if you remember) what bloods did you have and did the results come in a number factor or did you just get told you're below range. I am currently seeking tests for TRT due to health issues (not PED related) and although I have read up on the vast amount of info from the states I have found very little referring to the UK. So I would like to know exactly what to ask the Doc for seeing as the UK seems quite far behind on this matter. | ||

They might come off certain products (heavy androgens) and go on more anabolic drugs. I have no knowledge on strongman or powerlifting use as I don't know anybody that competes. In my gym it is all bodybuilders apart from me. | ||

 his poor male ego must be crushed Member 883, 6251 posts SQ 290, BP 180, DL 420890.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | slimsim said: Everyone competitive bodybuilder I've ever known (probably about 30), barr 1-2 used to come off pretty regularly, albeit for periods of only 6-weeks-ish.

Obviously there are exceptions but with strongman where there is a big focus on speed events and what not I don't think as much drugs are needed. Just imo. | ||

 I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10035 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | The older I get the more I can see the appeal of self-prescribed TRT, as it were - back to the level of an eighteen-year-old, say. Obviously I'd need to do a lot of research, but if I stopped competing I could easily see myself going on at that level and never coming off. I have no personal experience whatsoever, but I've had plenty of interesting conversations. Retirement would be a lot more fun with an teenager's hormones, I suspect. | ||

Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25565 posts Administrator | I wouldn't want to self prescribe purely as I wouldn't want to try and source the stuff a couple of times a year - sooner or later the well would run dry , and its illegal ...potential to get collar felt , even if its a small one...... When I got my blood tested at the docs , I never mentioned sauce ...I just didn't want it on my record ... because I wear a tinfoil hat and in 40 years medicine will be withheld from me due to me taking gear ! I must restate - its f**king ace being on and if a the NHS were to start giving all men over 50 TRT ..... well f**k me !! let the good times roll (when I turn 50) | ||

Is your mood elevated with higher test? Reason I ask is, some people state a low mood can me a dip in testosterone. | ||
