2024 Fitness Goals

[Darkpriest667]

It's not a magic pill at all.
You still have to eat right and workout or you won't get much benefit

You don't get on it and just grow muscle.
I know a few guys who were fat and got on it and a year later they are still fat.

Very simplistic terms..Diet, training and recovery are what's needed for muscle growth
TRT helps with recovery..MPS
Muscle protein synthesis

I had late afternoon bouts of fatigue and problems concentrating on work projects
I never really had low drive

I did have trouble recovering from my training and it has helped with that.

That's not an issue for me. I run 4 to 5 days a week.. before I strained my shoulder and neck weight lifting 3 to 5 days a week. I'm already busting my ass and my diet is pretty strict with little cheating. I don't drink, I don't smoke etc.

If you are lifting weights, heavy weights to gain muscle you need to be eating about 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight weight daily .

Much anything less than that and the results will be probably disappointing

And that should be eaten through the day and especially after the workout

Muscle is made in the kitchen and while you rest, not in the gym

In the gym you put your muscle through recoverable stress.
At night and when you recover the muscle rebuilds itself stronger
It's adapting to the stress.

When it does this it needs those amino acids to build back
There are about 21 amino acids required (9 are essential) because you have to eat them.the body can't make them like the others

Only animal protein contains all 9 essential amino acids.

Meat..eggs..dairy..fish..etc..

Plant proteins are good but you have to eat a wheelbarrow full daily to get what you could from steak and eggs.

Sorry for the physiology lesson..I know you didn't ask for it but I wanted to share in case others were following

When my fiancée becomes my wife and immigrates from overseas to the great state of Texas, we plan to have daily fitness sessions in the bedroom.
