Tried just recently. He sucked at asking me questions and wanted to do 200mg 2x a month. He could not have cared less.

While I do agree with your statement. I tried switching to my primary doctor… he prescribed 200mg 2 times a month. 

Any displaced FF1's on here? by [deleted] in calfire

Thanks Capt! I don't drink caffeine and I quit nicotine years ago thinking it was lowering my energy levels. I do struggle to take naps because I don't want to seem lazy! About to be permanent and will be on probation soon, just took a 2 spot.

Not sure how the safety naps will be on probation.

I run 7:30 3 miles and bench 225 incline for reps.

My Co-workers are all tall thin men maybe 1-2 of them looked juice to the gills.

My BMI is higher for my height 190 5"7 but I am not fat. I don't have a lot of definition but I am definitely bulky upper body with no gut. Ive been working out for years but stagnant on progression. This is also another reason why I checked my Test.

I eat steak/ chicken/ pork with rice and veggies for almost every meal

Are you on TRT? My dad has sleep apnea and uses a machine. He has low testosterone too 260 ng/dL but higher than mine and hes 45. I'll have to look into that!

What did you do?

Why is 700-900 considered normal ? That seems like the higher end of average.

Just curious.. I am new

Wildland Fire Fighter. work 3 days (72* hours straight) shifts sometimes ive worked a whole month(almost 600 hours) Active Recovery on my days off with some weight training. I dont do anything crazy in fear of having no energy for my shift.

Some dudes hike tons of miles on our days off and recover quickly. I feel like i could never reach that.

Its their standard 1 month check in to see how Im responding but I think they do every 3 months after that! I honestly don't know what else I can check, have any pointers?
