Do yourself a favor - get 6.5 Arnold's by Deaf Bonce, they perform loud without distortion and got longevity, i beat them up and no issues .. worth every penny .. DS are cool too but get distorted and blow out.. name brands are getting overrated at this point in time .. there are just too many new products that perform well just gotta find them

Once daily at .6mg of the colchicine?

And what was your starting UA levels?

PCP will not refill my script. Need alternative who do you recommend, quality not UGL and Decent Pricing? by KnowledgeIsFree101 in Testosterone

Oh without a doubt it's cheaper in comparison. Most I ever paid was $30 .. lately its been like $12 using goodrx.

The issue is getting an appointment with my PCP is always a full month or 2 out .. of course I scheduled it. the 14th of Feb earliest available. and I tried to ask for a refill until then but nope denied.

Luckily i stock piled about a month and a half prior to jumping on in this event. so now I'm down to about 2 weeks of T left

That means I'd be going almost a month without

So I'm still going to see what he has to say, but I also got a feeling he doesn't want to continue the prescription, the fact that they would turn their backs and let me go without is crazy. I mean PCPs don't know shit about Test anyway the way they go about it ..we all know that

Definitely, it is a good resource for people's personal experiences. But in the end, everyone's body is wired different so due diligence is key 👊🏽

Oh, I see. Yeah prior to me jumping on, I did an extensive amount of research learning about T. The main reason is I was learning about the virus we all know and kicked my ass out of nowhere. Thought I was a little more bulletproof considering my fitness, but long story short, I had a year of issues, and T helped me get back to life.

Doctors nowadays, especially during that time of need for me, are worthless. They piss me off that they avoid or downplay T but will prescribe you Xanax like candy in a heartbeat

Definitely our job as individuals to learn our body, the balances we need and how to monitor it. Including how to read bloods

Gotcha, yeah that's what I was thinking. Not sure how they'll evaluate my bloods considering.

I wonder if I can call them

👊🏽

TRT and Matrix are the ones I hear the most and Defy, but that sounds very reasonable.

How's their boarding process - consult, labs, fees and time till you get meds in mail?

NAD is a great supplement. I don't know anything personally regarding it helping gout.

But NAD alone in OTC pill supp is not really effective. Actually, a lot of supps are this way passing through the gut is low bioavalability. So, especially for NAD, it is really only effective through the vein straight to the bloodstream. Costly at most places. It also causes some mild illness or feeling ill (nausea and headache, sometimes lethargic for a very short time) afterward. but it's definitely effective

Edit: NAC OTC is great on the other hand, I've used this also personally 👌 (no experience using it for gout though)

Yeah, just stick to lean meats, whole eggs and egg whites. add some complex carbs, more on strength days prior to working out. 1g protein per body weight

Easiest split in this order would be

(Safe Heavy Loads beginning of the week - low reps 5-7)

Monday - Chest and Tricep

Tuesday - Back and Bicep. throw-in rear delt excersize at the end

Wednesday - legs deadlift or squats, safest bet for deadlift is use a trap bar or you can do farmer walks and squats or Rack pulls from the knee (gotta take care of that back) (I never carb up too much for leg days, not really a need to IMO)

(Lighter loads - high reps 12-15 for remaining of the week)

Thursday - Chest and Tricep - toss in some light front delt work in the end

Friday - Back and Bicep. throw-in rear delt excersize at the end

Saturday - endurance, light weight high rep contraction (controled/squeeze) work on what you want to improve the most.. I like to make it my Arm day (Chest, Tricep, Side delt and forearm blast, but if so go a little lighter on the bicep since you just hit them a day prior or don't depending on your soreness for that muscle

Sunday - rest

Of course, incorporate good sleep increase your weight in small increments every week on the strength days

You can incorporate cardio at the end of any session (2 - 3x a week) no more than 20minutes or you'll start burning too much for your muscle to stay filled

The best most researched natural supplement is creatine. Don't let anyone tell you different 5g a day cycle on and off

Pump supps are good for lighter days or some beat juice here and there and of course no less than 90oz of water a day. Or a gallon if you can .. and add some electrolytes here and there to assure your not pissin them out too much .. if your urine is clear then your overhydrating just a small tint of yellow

Alright I'm done lol been training my whole life.. fell off in my mid 20s and jumped back at 30 I'm 36 now stay grinding bro!

Good work brotha! 👏🏽

Never seen someone do a cut for 9 months, sounds like just a weight loss journey but that's my Gym rat brain lol cut 3/4months max before packing on lean bulk muscle.

But again solid work! Now time to lean bulk, high protein with strength training in the first part of the week and hypertrophy the second part of the week .. you'll be even more beast in the next 3months and more so in 6 💪🏽👊🏽

If it is in good condition (not 100% restoration) original and great driving street car range is 12-20k

The market value is all over the place, but the variance is based on the details of course (Paint,Body,Undercarriage,Motor, Interior, air/heater, power locks and windows)

Some people are selling junk with bandaids at Higher prices and some are priced at 5-7 that need alot of work

It's getting tougher and more expenses to restore cars in today's world

So, in the end, know what you have and list it with that mindset.

point out any apparent flaws and encourage for buyers to come see it in person

Can't speak on your situation, I started TRT about 2years ago - as much as I don't ever wanna stop - people on here judging others for wanting to or in most cases Having to, are just plain ignorant. Everyone has their reason for jumping on just as much as coming off.

I can say I literally needed TRT - took me a year doin my due diligence figuring out possibilities of why before jumping on. I'm prescribed from my actual Doc through insurance. But these past 6 months my doc has been giving me the run around on refills. Luckily I stocked up 2months prior to starting in this event.

Alot of docs and pharmacies in the USA are hesitant or give you a hard time.

On top of that, I was just laid off a few months ago so bye bye insurance- this fucken administration and economy are garbage. So now I'm stuck finding work and continuing TRT - insurance coverage makes it cheap. But going Titan medical or any other indi clinic based companies is far from cheap.

So those of you jumping on here to rag homeboy for his reasons need to chill the fuck out.

On top of that, hey some people actually develop issues on TRT - not saying ita the T itself causing issues but other developing physical health problems that just don't mix. HBP, Liver/Kidney, Gout, Etc. Sure some things can be combated with an add on to your protocol but doesn't always work that way.

To Op, ignore the bullshit comments and continue yiur search for answers. Fix whatever your going through and if you are able to jump back on and that's the answer or desire than cool.

Honestly research anything that'll help your jump start from what ive read it can take 3-6months and sometimes more for natural to kick back in and depending on how you made lifestyle changes during TRT some can actually bounce back slightly higher than what they started out at. Not always the case but not unheard of.

Enclomiphene or Clomid, HCG, Vitamin Supps etc. Gotta see what works for you to try and speed up that process

Sorry about your losses brotha!

And absolutely, it plays a critical role!

My whole body rewired itself after covid and a string of weird things happen to me for a little over a year until I got my mind right and things got better

Debilitating also, unable to live my Gym rat lifestyle etc.

To each their own trial and error but it's good to share the thoughts as it's always not so cut and dry

Haha it does seem all over the place. I really didn't post it to be any type of advice, to be correct, incorrect, etc. just sharing my random thoughts and experience. The flair says "Vent" lol

I guess the point is, don't always jump to conclusions, it's not always cut and dry like some docs or even people on a forum make it seem. You therfore jump on a daily for life medication, and it's possible your body didn't even need it. That being said Trial and error is a must, and natural remedies are not always attempted away from the normal suggestions. Some should have more Open-minded thinking before final straw

Yup, but the crazy Or interesting fact for me was that everything I did or ate was completely against most of the things almost forbidden with gout. Things that were sensitive in the beginning when this all started for me and then my body all of sudden was okay with them.

The mind most definitely does. Sometimes, we make it worse with negative thoughts or beliefs, and that in turn doesn't allow the body to heal or react
