FWIW. Are you seeing an endocrinologist? My wife works for the medical board. Unless you have a medical condition, testosterone hormone therapy is off label use and there is no standard of care. Which is a fancy way of saying your doctor might be applying bro science. I’m ok if somebody calls me out on those words. Something to think about.
I’m a few years older and starting Feb 2020 did the following:
- increased resistance training
- dropped doing TR intensity and moved to another respected training companies off-the-shelf plan averaging ~8-10 hours/week on the bike
Within 4 months my performance increased over two years of TR. My resting heart has dropped from 71 to 63 over the last year. I’m stronger and more durable. The ‘equipment’ down there is working better than anytime in 5-10 years. And in the last few months I’ve been slowly shedding some of the excess weight. I’d recommend trying that route over T, but hey it’s your body, your call.
