Test dosage question

[pwalks52]

Hey all, new to the forum. First off my stats. 46 years old in two weeks. 6’2 currently 240lbs

I got my labs done and my free test was sitting at 220. I started with 250 mg per week twice weekly shots. My strength is going up and I am seeing my upper body getting more developed and thicker. When I started I was 228lbs and now just over 240 after 6 weeks.

I am getting the results I want so far although I’m impatient as well. I am hearing so many conflicting things about doses. As I am going to cruise in my down time I am thinking about upping my dose to 400mg and cruising at 200 and possibly adding in Low dose of Dec a during cruise for my joints. My BW came back last week and my free test was 760.

Advice if I should up to 400 and cruise at 200 or wait until my next BW and readjust?

Thanks all

If you’re seeing the results you want and you feel good I would keep the dose the same until you start plateauing again and then I would up it by 100mg and rinse and repeat.

This is solid advice. You have added 12 lbs you should just keep doing what you are doing.

If you’re seeing the results you want and you feel good I would keep the dose the same until you start plateauing again and then I would up it by 100mg and rinse and repeat.

I think what you will find is that many people who jumped to higher doses right away wish they could go back and start lower, only working their way up after progress stalls.

Why put more stress on your body if you're already getting great results from less?

100 percent. Your gettin good results at that level. Stick to it.

I’m personally happy I started at 500mg way back when. Would have likely been a waste for me to do 250mg. My trt is 225mg many years later.

I started at 250 and was getting results. At my age you'd think id be more patient. But my excitement got me jumping up to 500 cyp/wk and than adding 250deca/wk and 25mg proviron a day. Really just chasing. Should have followed the advice given from members here. But suddenly having access to multiple compounds had me excited to experiment.

I started with 500 test, 300 eq, 60mg dbol as a kick start and 60mg vsr for a finished.

Knowing what I know now, I would've started with 250 test, for 12-16 weeks. Then maybe 350 for the next one, then maybe 500 then go from there with adding orals and other compounds.
