recent blood work

[animal-inside]

I'm on 100mg trt.. doctor wanted testing done when I was injecting once a week.. I injected every wednesdy. Doctor wanted my blood drawn halfway through the week, so basically to find the middle of my test levels.. Long story short, I got bloods drawn on Friday 8:30 am (yesterday) and my 100mg shot was done thursday night. Basically got my blood work done after injecting 100mg the night before after 8 days of last shot.

I'm waiting for a couple more results to come in, but based on the above, I think I'm doing good. I could probably donate some blood.

I have all of my clients start tracking their water intake, and drinking a minimum of 1.5 gallons/day when they join my team.

From their baseline bloods to either mid-cycle or health phase update bloodwork, their RBC/HTC all drastically improves…

I’m an advocate of donating once per year, but I’ve found most guys are just shortchanging themselves when it comes to hydration. Only time I’m sending a client to donate is if their hematology is alarmingly over the ref range.

Cyp? So you did the draw at almost the lowest possible point in the trough? Rather than at the middle as requested, was that your intent? I think is he is versed well enough in this to view the whole panel all together it's gonna look a bit suspect. That may not be too big a deal though as you historically have some crazy shit going on in other areas

Good on you for doing that, hydration effect on those markers is hugely underrated. Such a shame cause it's simple and free. Having said that you'll note I said simple not easy, I fail at it myself for some unknown reason. I'm pretty disciplined about most things but struggle to get enough water down. Tried differnt ways of measuring it out for the day etc but so often end up way behind by bedtime and then resist cause I don't wanna be up pissing all night.

Any tips for folks who struggle with it?
