How long have you been with Chip now?

Started Maximus protocal on Dec. 20. Still getting dialed in, but training is going great and libdio is a hoppin!!!!
 
Been on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) since March 2011. 5'9" & 198 lb. 39 yrs. old. Diet isn't great and never has been. Haven't maxed out on bench since I've been on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). Max before testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) was 275. Been dealing with a pinched nerve in my back, but in Nov. I benched 245lb.x8 so it should be safe to say that my max is over 275 now. Would like to do 300 by summer. Been having some ED issues lately(never have before) on 1 cc of enathate/week. My doc doesn't give me an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and doesn't do estrogen test so I'm going to ask for estrogen test when I go back at the end of Feb. He gives me Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) but says to inject 1.5cc for 2 weeks and that's it. I've been dividing it up into 500mg per week over a 6 week period. I did the 1.5 cc/wk for 2 weeks the first time he prescribed it(July) and felt like crap. I know this dose is unheard of isn't it?
 
How's this for a win... I've been hammering the total gym every day. Today, I have it on the max setting, and can curl 10x, 8x, 6x. The damn machine is on a seirious angle. Never could I even do it on the second highest setting. But 10 reps on max now. And the skin on my arms and chest is so tight, I'll probably end up with stretch marks. 3 weeks in tomorrow.

Lead good to hear that you are making great progress. As far as the ED I believyou are on the right track getting your estrogen checked. I would say that your estro is too high. If your doc refuses to address it you can always order an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) from one of the board sponsers. Also dividing your HCG up is dead on. Keep us posted & thanks for sharing.

Great! I'd be willing to bet you are going to out grow that total gym in short order. You are well on your way. Keep it up & congrats

leadoff2

I am having the same problems with ED issues lately(never have before):flamingma I was on gel and then I moved to shots but only taking 200mg e2w. I have had 3 shots now and everyone seem to be the same no sex drive and problem with ED for a week and half after the shot. I do have blood work next week to check my E2 and test levels and the doctor will go from there and I also have to do a blood test between the 2 weeks shots to see if the timing needs to be changed but right now I am ready to just stop everything its not wroth having ED problems I rather be tried then have ED problems.

leadoff2, your aromitizing the hcg. If your not on an Aromatase inhibitor (AI), this is bad. No more erections for you. Especially on that much hcg.
 
Frustrated, am I still aromitizing the HCG even at 500mg/week? What is a good Aromatase inhibitor (AI) to order from RUI since they're having a good sale? I just ordered some Liquid Cia from RUI...hoping that'll do the trick for me. I was taking 100mg of Zince a day. My doc suggests 80-90 mg in place of an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and I had dropped down to 50mg for about a month. I've since upped it back to 100mg/day and ED seemed to have gotten a little better.
 
I'm no expert. But as I understand it T alone will require an Aromatase inhibitor (AI). And HCG, while great at keeping the boys alive, requires even more Aromatase inhibitor (AI). There are many not running that much HCG, while still running an Aromatase inhibitor (AI). Now with all of this said, there is a perfect balance for each individual, everybody is different. It's also worth pointing out that everything takes some time. So even if you took the perfect dosing, it may take weeks for your own body to adjust to this perfect harmony. I've noticed this on here time and time again.

Somebody on here recommended this
 
Liquid Cia from RUI didn't do anything fot me. Sad thing is, I bought one more bottle when they had it at 40% off last week. I used .4mg...maybe I need to up the dose. Stopped the HCG last week to see if that helps anything.:worried:
