Recovery Time

[hicktown]

Hey guys, let me first start off by saying I ran test enth 600 wk & EQ 600 a week for 18 weeks. I did increase my dose on the EQ the last four weeks or so. Ive now been off everything for 56 days and i feel ok for being on a long cycle. I havent noticed any change in my testicle size.

Can you base your recovery progress on how quickly testicle size comes back? I guess im wondering how much more time i should take off? Ive also taken a break from the gym for about a month as well to give my elbows some time to chill out too.

Re: Recovery Time

man it is so hard to gauge without bloods being done especially since everyone is so much different. you could be almost exactly the same as another guy same age build etc.... and you may bounce back in a month and he may never bounce back ever. the common rule of thumb though is equal or more time off than on. some of the best indicators though without bloods would be sex drive, energy, over all well being and how easy and well you get and maintain an erection. just look at the symptoms from low t and that's a pretty good guide that it is tanked out. then again you may feel absolutely fantastic and be at the very bottom of the normal range.

something else some people dont take into account to boost their normal hormone levels is taking time off in the gym. i realize that we all need a little break here and there but the more you get in there (as long as you are recovering) the more you will jump start your production esp when training back and legs. these huge groups trigger a huge dump of natty hormone levels. just a thought that popped into my head on this topic.

Re: Recovery Time

Thanks guns, well energy levels are not as great but i expected that. I dont have a wife or girlfriend so sex drive isnt there to begin with. I did have a roll in the sheets with this girl that lives near me for over an hour and i never lost an erection. I am depressed slightly but not real dramatic.

I have a few doctor friends. So would i jjust need to get my levels checked, what else should i ask to be tested?

Re: Recovery Time

After i thought about it im not depressed at all. I had three days where i had zero energy, slept most of the day and felt like hell but thats gone. I attribute that to my medication that was making me feel shitty. Ive been out riding my motorcycle alot and taking a break from the gym so its not like im laying around the house all day either. I think ill make an appointment with my doctor. I want to see about getting growth too.

Re: Recovery Time

free test, total test, sbhg and estro at a minimum. you can do the private med labs for pretty cheap and get pretty much everything under the sun tested if you have a facility near by without even needing a doc
