I figured I'd finally make a post instead of spending hours going down YouTube rabbit holes. I'm 33 years old, 6'0", and around 210 lbs. Most of my body fat is carried in my stomach, and no matter what I seem to do, that's the area that refuses to change. I've been lifting consistently, but I don't feel like I'm making much progress. My strength goes up a little here and there, but visually I don't see the muscle gains I'd expect.
I'm just an average guy working a regular dead-end job, trying to better myself and improve my health and confidence. I've done a lot of research, but the more I read and watch, the more conflicting information I find.
I'll be honest—I have considered TRT, but I'm hesitant because I don't want to commit to being on it for the rest of my life unless it's something I truly need. I've also looked into mild anabolic cycles. I understand they come with risks, and I'm not looking for someone to tell me they're completely safe. I'm just trying to figure out the smartest way to jump-start my journey if I decide to go that route.
Before making any decisions, I'm planning to get a full set of blood work done, and once I have the results, I'll post them here for feedback.
In the meantime, I'd appreciate advice from people who have actually been in my shoes. If you were starting over at my age and my stats, what would you focus on first? Nutrition? Training? Cardio? Blood work? Supplements? Or would you tell me to avoid PEDs entirely until I have everything else dialed in?
I'm here to learn, so I appreciate any honest advice. Thanks in advance.
