TRT AT 23 || It Ruined His Life

He explains in detail and we have to appreciate the fact that he is so open about what the steroids did for him, it was a living nightmare, one of the worst cases I have seen in my 46 years on this earth. Coach Greg in today's video. We're looking back at Zen Carver, who underwent therapy at the age of 23. We'll talk about whether he really needed it and then he decided to do his first cycle and it completely

ruined

his physique. Wait until he sees the pain, the torture. he went through doing his first cycle, he documents his experiences and we will go over his videos in the hope that you can learn from his mistakes, so I never actually did the male physique show, but I did all the preparation and in the end 18 weeks I was in the best shape of my

life

and that's how it all started for zen training when I was a teenager playing sports trying to be more athletic trying to get the physique of my dreams I wasn't happy with the amount of body fat I had and that's why I did- I went up and down, I went on intense diets, I gained weight, I binged on volume and cutting, etc.

He finally decided to train to do his first men's physique competition, he died for 18 weeks and got into the shape of his

life

and although he didn't compete he had the shredded physique, the abs he was looking for, however he didn't have as much muscle as he thought. He should have thought that there must be something wrong with me, why don't I have such huge muscles? I'm thin, but I'm not happy with the size I have. I remember that this is a natural athlete. He could bend nearly 300 pounds, squat over 400, and deadlift over 500 pounds. Certainly very respectable numbers for a man of his size, but my muscular frame was not as developed as it should have been and I couldn't understand why genetics, not everyone is born to be as massive as Chris Bumps did, doesn't work.

So if you have amazing genetics and you train really hard, you'll probably have more shitty muscle genetics. He trains hard, not a lot of muscle and, frankly, I'm looking at his physique and he looks a lot better than the average person. Most people who hit the gym lifting weights and dieting for 18 weeks certainly won't look as good as him. he does and that's why, in my opinion, social media was constantly showing pictures of guys with incredible physiques that somehow led him to think that his physique wasn't good enough. I didn't understand why my body did the things it did.

It was time to get a checkup so I went to a doctor and asked him to test my testosterone level and he ended up going to the doctor to see if my testosterone levels were up to par and you could go to the doctor or I could. go let's check it out click the link in the description use my discount code greg30 to save 30 and what were the results 61 nanograms per deciliter, well below the 250 to 1100 expected for most normal healthy men , it's also a free trial 8.3 extremely below the 35-155 average expected for men his age, so what's the first thing that comes to mind when I see this?

Well, Isaiah Miranda comes to mind. In fact, he may have been experimenting with sarms. and this would have caused the dramatic suppression of your body's own testosterone production or in fact you could have the testosterone levels of an average woman, so I don't know and the doctors don't know, so what does your doctor say ? If you do well, they can't put you on testosterone right away, they need to do several tests to make sure it's not a fluke, that there wasn't a mistake, so they send you to an endocrinologist two months later to have the tests done once. again and in the second test, their numbers improve: 119 in total and 18 bioavailable;

However, this is still too low, so they alter his diet, making sure he has enough healthy fats, calories, workouts on time, and getting enough sleep. The test is done again. The numbers increase a little. a little, but not enough to feel normal, so what does the endocrinologist do right? He puts him in therapy now. In fact, he may have been using sarms and this caused his test to be suppressed, but the endocrinologist wouldn't know and therefore does the right thing. At least in my opinion, by prescribing HRT I started taking my first testosterone injections. In my opinion, I was taking testosterone cyyanate at 100 milligrams every two weeks and I am not an endocrinologist.

You should inject testosterone more frequently than every day. two weeks, however, is what they did with me. My endocrinologist prescribed 200 milligrams of testosterone every two weeks, so I don't know why these endocrinologists recommend biweekly injections, but it seems like they do in a lot of different countries. Canada, for me, the United States. He says that they then check his testosterone levels and that they are at the upper end of the recommended range, however, this was shortly after the injection and at the end of the injection, before he performed the next injection, his testosterone levels were at somewhere in the middle and So, these peaks and valleys in his testosterone levels were causing him a little bit of acne, he had more energy at the beginning of the week and less energy at the end, so what did they do?

They increased the dose of it to one hundred milligrams each. week and by doing so I had much more stable blood levels I had a lot of energy I slept better better results in the gym and everything was going smoothly or so it would seem I expressed to the doctor that I wanted to compete in bodybuilding and that I was not looking to do it in an improved way, but I did want to make sure it was getting better and remember this because it is an important omen. Have you ever heard that he mentioned to his doctor that he wanted to be a bodybuilder?

He mentioned this. So he was already thinking that I want a strong body and with this dose of HRT he knows that his doctor will prescribe testosterone, which makes it legal in his country. Now I don't want to say that this is an endorsement for doing what I'm saying. It's just that where I was in terms of my hormone levels I feel a lot better and so he goes over all the recommended things to say, you know, don't do this at home, do it with a doctor's advice, it's not for everyone. he is only 23 years old, don't copy him, be careful, so what does he decide to do?

Decides to get on a cycle after going to the doctor to be as safe as possible and say oh I have no advantage on testosterone it just puts me in the normal range when we all know hrt clearly gives you an advantage over being a natural athlete even if you have the same test levels because you are not going to drop below physiological levels even when you are not sleeping and you are not training effectively. my blood work looked good my body was changing I felt great so I ignored it to be honest 400 milligrams a week and then what do you choose to do well?

Decide to do 400 milligrams of test per week with divided doses injecting every The other day this is equivalent to doing 114 milligrams of test every other day and in my opinion it is actually a beginner steroid cycle; It's probably less than most people are going to use when first using steroids, so you might see 400 milligrams. not much compared to the 1000 2000 3000 that many professionals use, but 400 is a lot compared to what your endocrinologist recommends and he suffered from acne all his life as a teenager, a student got acne, he was given He was prescribed prescriptions for help him with his acne and it was pretty much under control but not once he started taking 400 milligrams a week and you might be thinking why he titled this video how it

ruined

my body how can steroids ruin your body it explains in detail and we have To appreciate the fact that he is so open about what steroids did for him, it was a living nightmare, one of the worst cases I have seen in my 46 years on this earth and looking at his physique you can clearly see it.

During the day he has gained a huge amount of muscle, he looks great, however, his skin not so much. I'm going to tell the story through some photos I have on my phone. Here's the beginning, it's March 13, I'm a little beefy and so on. Remember what I said about people's minds being warped, that having seen so many amazing physiques on social media, it warps our main point about what a great physique really looks like. that you need to lose body fat and gain size, how many of you would like to look like that once even for a day?

He thinks he's fat and so what does he do? He goes on a steroid cycle of 400 milligrams a week. What does he look like? He needs steroids, he is already taking hormone therapy, prescribed and supervised by his doctor and endocrinologist, but he decides to get out of his plan. I'm going to use 400 milligrams a week, that's abuse. You may be thinking no, it's a low dose cycle, that's abuse. beyond what the doctor prescribes, is abusing steroids, my blood work actually looked good, to be honest, if you look at my blood work, all my blood work looked good, there is nothing wrong, but you see here, my skin was really starting to get worse. on my back if you are being monitored by your endocrinologist doctor and you were taking 100 milligrams per week and you increase the dose to 400 and the doctor looks at you and says everything is normal then there is something negligent with your doctor and I don't say it is It's the doctor's fault, but I feel like we're possibly missing information.

If you suddenly quadruple your testosterone dose, your blood tests aren't going to look normal to begin with, your testosterone levels should be through the roof if not, right? using real testosterone and where do you get this testosterone from? If the doctor prescribes 100 milligrams per week and you are using 400, the ball could empty very quickly and you may see after the fourth month that the acne starts to get much worse. The physique is the best I've ever seen, of course, he takes 400 milligrams a week for four months. You can clearly see that he has built a significant amount of muscle while he loses body fat, meaning he regains building muscle while being in a calorie deficit.

This, you can see, I look terrible. Cystic acne started to flare up on my neck when I was working out, it was the most painful thing I was experiencing. Imagine the discomfort of knowing that every time you put a bar on your back, lie down on a bench, blood will start to soak through your shirt and you really don't realize how many people touch you on the shoulder or touch you and give you pats on the back when you don't have this, but when you do you realize that everyone, even his friends, wouldn't be able to touch him if they patted him on the shoulder. pat on their shoulders it hurt so I would push them stay away from me don't touch me imagine living this life all because you felt like you were a little stocky you needed to have less fat and more muscle that affected my mental health ton it's something I find hard to talk about and I've talked to a lot of people about it and that has helped me, but it was easily one of the most difficult times of my life and that's why he describes that it's not just the physical but the mental health also imagine how it feels mentally it can't be taken away shirt in front of no one has an incredible physique full of muscles he's the thinnest he's ever been but he can't show it off he can't show it to the people he has I literally cover him with two layers of shirts and a sweater and he feels constant pain not only in the gym not only when his friends touch him but even when he goes to sleep.

I went to a dermatologist. I received a prescription for Accutane. We did blood tests. and I made sure he was healthy enough to do it. Obviously I lowered my testosterone and so after over six months of using steroids he finally said enough was enough. She went to his dermatologist and was prescribed Accutane. He lowered his testosterone dose to what the doctors recommended in the first place and started to improve, so the acne he has now is no longer painful and he can at least train and be a normal human being. Now I am as happy as before.

It's been a long time and it's actually allowed me to have a different perspective on what I'm doing now, so he's really learned a lot from this, he's opening up, he's telling us all his mistakes, what he did wrong, he was young and committed. mistakes and that is why he is going to move forward. Now he enjoys being able to help people. You can clearly see that he is making these videos trying to help us. She enjoys going to the gym and sharing his passion for health and fitness. He no longer believes he can. He will be a bodybuilder, he just wants to be healthy, be able to train, talk to people, be sociable, the steroid cycle really ruined his physique and potentially his life, but hopefully no permanent damage was done and he will be able to live a long and healthy life If you guys can learn one thing from this it is that your hormones are nothing to play with anything you put in your body will be completely represented on the outside and therefore if all the deaths from heart attacks that have occurred in bodybuilding lately, if that doesn't deter you then maybe this will and if you're not careful, get a grip, go see your doctor and get the blood work you need.
