>start making great progress on all my lifts
>think im getting better
>turns out im just getting fatter

such is the life of a guy with 290 ng/dl test levels, with a a high SHBG

>High sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) means that less of your body's testosterone or estrogen is free and available to be used by your tissues

my SHBG is literally maxed out, so not only do i have very low test levels, my SHBG levels are so high that my body can barely make use of what little test I have


I can only make progress on my lifts when i eat more, but eating more just makes me fatter immediately, rapidly, its so fucked up


inb4: just get on Test bro

Why? knowing my luck id end up getting a billion side effects are permanently fuck up my hormones even more than they already are

It never even began for guys like me

you won't give up like a little bitch, right?

Im 38, ive been lifting since i was 16.

My bodyfat sits around like 25-30% unless I am super restrictive with my diet, then it goes down to like 18-22%. Lowest its ever been was about 15% bodyfat, but that was about 1 year of grinding away at a calorie deficit so hard that I almost died.

Imagine being weaker willed than actual trannies.
