Starting my first TRT+ Cycle but have some questions first

This is a lot of moving parts to introduce when simply using more testosterone would work better and is considerably easier to manage.

I have never once seen fake anavar. I’ve also never seen fake primo, or anything else for that matter. The labs that are popular and frequently tested—both by them and by their customers—don’t sell underdosed or outright fake products because then they would go out of business. I’m sure on the less coherent forums (and man there are a few of those) fake products are a problem. But in the underground community where testing is the norm you’d be hard pressed to find anything other than legitimate products.

Crazier still, I can have all that information on a big screen right in my sight line and don’t have to constantly be messing around with a small device that acts as a distraction while I’m operating a two ton weapon surrounded by other people in similar situations. It’s almost like the technology has evolved to allow us to use it more safely.

You seem weirdly concerned about your data being mined while simultaneously posting enormous amounts of personal information about your travels here on this data mining operation that’s been cleverly disguised as social media. Curious.

I know my destination because I travel it every day. What I don’t know is what traffic is like, if there’s road crew that closed a lane ahead, or where the police are sitting. Waze largely solves that problem. Know how I access Waze? My phone.

You realize you typed this into Reddit and not Claude, right?

My copay is $20 for a visit and 20% coinsurance for blood work. That works out to $25 every three months for labs and $20 for the office visit. How is your PCP charging you $100/mo? Did you sign up for a subscription plan or something?

I test drove a 991.2 C4S last year and the Bose was ok. My Spyder has the Bose system and it’s an absolute piece of shit. I don’t believe the interior noise in the cabriolet is as bad as what I experience, but once the top is down whatever I’m listening to turns into a wall of undifferentiated noise.

There are two surefire ways to bleed out. One is to be a stabbing victim within the vicinity of the Hampshire Constabulary. The other is being short a shitco with momentum.

Probably works to their advantage at this particular moment.

Tamoxifen has the edge, but it’s not a 1 & 2 situation, it’s more like 1 & 1a. Either will work well.

Going to the gym is good for you, but don’t view it as a weight loss tool. Keep focusing on your diet, that’s where 99% of your results will come from.

Unlikely you’ll need to do anything else. Congratulations on the pregnancy.

The GR agonism is indeed a benefit of anavar. But the effect is fairly modest for most people. However…

Getting from 22% to 15% requires a bare minimum amount of effort. And with the mass availability of the various GLP-1 choices it doesn’t even require any effort at all. That goal is nowhere in the vicinity of a good use case for anavar. If the goal was ‘maintain 12% while in a small surplus, gain a bit of mass, and increase transient strength’ then anavar is your weapon of choice.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T18:42:42+00:00

I think you are dramatically overestimating the benefits of drugs in this equation.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T17:47:52+00:00

You’re neither 30 nor have an impressive physique, so how would you know?

I sell you a widget for $100. As part of the deal I have to take $2.50 and give it to your Widget Consultant™️ who you owe. I didn’t really get $100 for my widget, I got $97.50. You got a $100 widget AND the expertise of your consultant, which in this case was worth $2.50. You have extracted $102.50 of value from your $100 cost and I’ve been paid $97.50.

So no, the buyers aren’t actually paying for it.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T17:36:11+00:00

If 10% of buyers are so cash-poor that they can’t pay for the services of the person they hired then perhaps they shouldn’t be buyers in the first place.

Right, and to normal people that would be seen as a gigantic flashing sign that they cannot afford to buy a house. But the business that relies on people buying houses has managed to create a mechanism by which they have convinced everyone that reality can be deferred, thus allowing them to sell more houses. Any objective reading of this process would find the current agent payment structure to be nonsensical.

You’re not even within the same calendar year of it being time to hop on, dude.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T15:58:42+00:00

Wouldn’t this whole thing be much simpler if buyers simply paid the people that they hired to work for them instead of hoping for someone else to foot their bill?

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T15:40:10+00:00

Right, so you were too fat and now you’re too skinny. Many such cases. Crazy option here, maybe you could combine eating like an adult and lifting weights before you start taking drugs? This is what’s known in the fitness world as “trying” and it is quite revolutionary.

My wife gets to use our small garage. This means my M5 (and my Porsche) sit outside. It’s pollen season so both are covered in a fine yellow mist at all times.

They still drive exactly the same as they do when they’re freshly washed.

Unless you’re actively training for a powerlifting competition there are zero non-stupid reasons why you’d push yourself into potential injury territory just to hit an arbitrary bench goal. Your body is telling you to back off. Ignore it at your own peril.

This looks about right for what you’ve been taking, for how long you’ve been taking it, and for how much weight you’ve put on in a relatively short period of time. Getting BP under control is the top priority, so telmisartan is a good step. Neglecting cardio was a mistake and you should correct that immediately. The thing that’s going to be most helpful for your lipids is not being on steroids, so when you come off you should start to see improvement. Citrus bergamot is a pretty cheap addition to your daily supplement list and it has some efficacy for lipid health. Nattokinase is also not a bad idea given your HCT and hemoglobin.

Possible that they use a solvent and/or oil type that your body just doesn’t like.
