New member here to read and learn all I can. Most of what I need to know has already been asked and I don't mind digging for it. Until I can come up with something unique or specific, I will lurk.
38, 5' 6", 165lbs.
I started at 270lbs almost a year and a half ago. Hit the gym (hired a trainer), and relentlessly tracked/logged my nutrition since then. I eat insanely consistently and clean and enjoy the shit out of it.
I'm trying to shed off the last bit of fat before spring. Currently eating 1700 calories a day (185 grams of protein, 35ish fat, 140ish carbs). I ate at maintenance for 2 weeks last month, and will again in a few weeks due to plateauing every couple months.
I lift 5 days a week(once with a trainer) and do cardio as much as my energy levels allow (2-3 times a week typically).
Went to a clinic 6 months ago and got on 200mg per week of test. Have been enjoying all the noob gains from that and just trying to dial in how my body reacts and how to keep my e2 under control. I seem to be a bit sensitive(mentally) to high e2 and am still aromatizing fairly heavily since my body fat is likely in the 15-18% range.
Started retatrutide a month ago, which has been a game changer so far, mentally at least. Going to start HGH in a few days at 2IU and slowly taper up to 4-6IU depending on how my body reacts.
It's been really fun dialing everything in and seeing it all come together. Can't get enough of it.
I'm planning on running my first cycle this coming spring into the summer. My goal is to have my body fat near 10% by then and have no e2 swings or stability issues. Thinking 500 test and potentially primo if I'm still aromatizing more than others, but I still have time and research to do.
Anyway, thanks for the forum and all the veteran members keeping the knowledge and posts flowing. If you have any advice for a noob, I'm all ears
