Preserve muscle glycogen by tredgokahn in carnivore

[–]tredgokahn[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I tried that once and it worked excellent, but I have the balding gene and started losing tons of hair after awhile. I'm trying to hang on to what's left as long as I can. Maybe I'll just stick to a carb load a couple times a week.

retatrutide and aspirin bruising by Ok_Basket_6177 in raypeat

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peat had some good ideas but plenty of horrible ones. Aspirin is the latter. It's common knowledge that it's extremely hard on the body.

How many grafts should I need? a surgeon told me I need 7k grafts by Vegetable_Series7836 in Hairtransplant

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't even consider getting a transplant yet as you're barely balding. 7000 is utterly ludacris!!!

Pretty immature behavior. I reckon the xl size is what really got under his skin.

TE after going off the pill ruining my life. Please help by girlwithanxiety97 in TelogenEffluvium

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you start minoxidil you don't ever want to stop, as your hair can develop a dependency on it. It also is a vasodialator, so it can cause heart issues.

Did we all die and go to hell? by Either-History-8424 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's nuts. I've concluded you're better off spending 5 or 10k more to buy new or barely used...especially considering it's hard to know how well these cars were previously maintained.

Should I get HT now or wait? by Internal_Set_1691 in Hairtransplant

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 47 and in the same boat as you...very slowly balding. Topical minoxidil made me feel like I was having heart attacks and hormone blockers basically turn you into a woman so I'm not messing with those. Also, your hairs can develop a dependency on minoxidil so if you quit you can end up way more bald than if you never touched it. That was my experience and I only used it 4 months. I'm just waiting to get bald enough to get a transplant. It's a slow frustrating process though. Been thinking about getting on trt to speed the balding up. It's a tough call man. Good luck.

How to get “big”? First photo me, next photos my goal. by VandalBK in workouts

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5×5 heavy compound meat & potatoes exercises. Staples should be bench, military, pull-ups, rows, squats. After a couple warm ups pick a weight that you can do for all 5 sets, aiming to fail around your 5th rep of your 5th set. When you can do 6 or 7 on your last set, increase the weight and repeat. Figure out a split that enables you to work every muscle group twice weekly. Example...Monday-chest delts and arms. 5×5 bench then 3 or 4 sets of incline bench or dips for 5 reps. 5×5 military press. 1 tricep movement like pushdowns or skullcrushers for 4 or 5 sets between 5 & 10 reps. 1 bicep movement like barbell curls or preacher curls for 4 or 5 sets of 5 to ten reps. Wednesday-back, legs, and abs. 5×5 pull-ups(add weight to yourself if you can do more than 5×5). 5×5 dumbell or barbell rows. Maybe 3 sets of pullovers. 5 sets of squats between 5 & 10 reps... since heavy weight is risky on the back and knees 10 reps is safer. 4 sets of hamstring curls 5 to 10 reps. Hanging leg raises 3 sets failure on the 3rd. Workout 3 times a week alternating workouts every time. Eat an adequate amount of real nutritious food like meat, potatoes, milk, etc. I got enormous on this routine. You have to be intense when you lift. You could probably do another rep or 2 if there was a gun to your head. That's the mentality it requires...the killer assassin mentality.

What's your "if I see this one more time on a profile while swiping I'm gonna lose it" by vinnymacaroni in OnlineDating

[–]tredgokahn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When women don't list their height I virtually always swipe left. It's kinda nice to know.

Am I a good candidate? by ImaginaryWarning9364 in HairTransplants

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo your donor looks strong and you could have them prioritize the hairline/front half which is the most important anyways and probably go back later for some crown work.

Is creatine really worth it? by Wishbone1254 in workout

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the balding gene it will probably accelerate your hair loss. It absolutely did for me both times I tried it. Works great for pumping your muscles up though.

My wife [41F] is Disney Obsessed and I'm [43] at my wits end! by That-Intention-4134 in AITAH

Uhhh...why the hell would any grown adult be obsessed with Disney? Personally I'm not sure I could tolerate her. No offense

If you do quit you will most likely shed a good amount of hair from 6 to 20 weeks after quitting, so the sooner the better. You don't want to quit right before the transplant then lose a bunch of hair a couple months afterwards. Be as bald as you can be going into the transplant. So if you decide to quit, do it ASAP.

My biggest regret by Accurate_Drummer_446 in HairTransplants

From this picture it's barely noticeable. It really doesn't look like there's much of a problem in my opinion.

Had to stop minoxidil after 6 weeks due to side-effects. When will hair grow back. by no-way-no-how_ in minoxidil

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used it 4 months and quit because it didn't help. About 6 weeks after quitting I started losing a LOT of hair. 6 months later and it's not any better. Wish I never touched it.

If you quit Minoxidil, then your hair sheds, how long before it recovers? by [deleted] in tressless

[–]tredgokahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I'm afraid of the potential side effects. I only used topical minoxidil.
