Re: Do you think you can ever go back to "normal" after being on for very long period
I tried for the last 18 months and was f'in miserable. Lost speed, strength, and worst of all, recovery time virtually tripled (tracked with Garmin 410 GPS/HRmonitor/and Power Meter on my rear wheel---the changes were nothing short of dramatic---well super crappy dramatic (and this is with good blood numbers)--though I did grow back some hair, but otherwise I would rather race into my 60s and croak then live like this--even broke my hand in softball (not that there is a connection but I blame it anyway). Suffice to say 45 is not 25 and I am not happy about it and if I can go down fighting, so be it.
