Im Anthony thanks for having me. I live in Brooksville FL. 46 years old For the first time in my life I stuck to New years resolution. No alcohol No fast food No fried food Since NYE I've worked out consistently in my new garage gym 4-5 days a week. Down from 230 to 165. I've been using CJC-1295/ipam no dac Ss-31 / Mots-c Glow Blood work shows TT at 290 VA won't give me Test so im doing it on my own starting last week with the help of an online mens clinic. Time to build up now. Joined this group for the shared experience, information, guidance and camaraderie.

I wanted to encourage anyone over 50. A couple of years ago, I gained several pounds of muscle but was not lifting on a regular basis. What I was doing was hiking for 45 minutes daily with a weighted vest. My doctor said there was some research supporting that as an outcome. I’ve kept that in my cardio routine a few times a week. If you decide to do this, start with no more than 10% of your body weight and work up from there.

Anyone had luck using the dosage calculators like Glapp's app to keep a level amount of Tirzepatide in your system or microdose? 3 years ago, I was all the way up to 12.5mg when I lost a bunch of weight and this time around, the 2.5mg is kicking my ass and seems to be almost too much. Have lost 15lbs in 3.5 weeks and don't want to ride the spikes right after shot days.

After weeks of waiting on insurance…I GOT MY ZEPBOUND TODAY!!! First injection is complete and I’m so stoked to begin this journey. Any advice or comments about how long it takes to start feeling the effects or anything I should know going in is very appreciated.

Hello all, I am a 52 YO male living in MN. I have spent much of my late 30s and 40s focused on raising my kids and working. I have battled weight gain the whole way, yo-yo dieting for years. I found myself at 225 nearing 50. My wife had started using Wegovy and was seeing great success losing weight, so I started using compounded Semaglutide in March of 2024. I lost 35lbs right away, as Semaglutide reduced my appetite, but I didn't change much in lifestyle. I found I had lost 14 lbs of muscle during this journey. That's when I started consistently strength training for nearly a year, and saw solid strength gains and more definition, but the belly fat was stubborn and I found adding muscle to be very challenging. I switched to Reta in January of this year, and started seeing some body recomp, but noticed that my sex drive was waning and had overall low energy. After getting a second blood panel, decided to talk to a doctor about my T, which was not clinically low, but suboptimal. I have been on Test for about 6 weeks now and have seen amazing results as I have stepped up my strength training. I have brought my body fat down to 23% today from 29% in March 2026. My next goal is to get below 20% this year and to 15% in 2027. My libido has returned and my sex life has been taken to a whole new level! Glad I have found this group and hope to share my experiences and see others journeys to help each other achieve our goals.
