I haven’t been on the bike for a Few weeks now due to my new business. I’m working much longer hours which doesn’t help. I did think about running again but I much prefer riding up the downs.

    Dubman I think at this stage of life, it comes down to doing things you enjoy. This fills my need to be competitive and should get me into pretty decent shape. How’s the new business going?

        It’s doing alright. The price of fuel is really hitting my profits and there’s a lot of competition that are doing jobs for silly money. I’m just waiting for a fuel card to arrive so that will save me some money. I also looked at buying a brand new van but was told that it’s very hard to get credit these days if you’re a sole trader.

            Dubman I hear you with gas prices, they’re killing me too. Glad it’s going ok so far, getting going is always the hardest part.

              I’ve came here to say that I’ve never felt larger and more disorganised than ever at home and it’s affecting everything. Work feels chaotic when it really isn’t, it’s just the feeling being in a bit of a mess is causing and I am not exercising. I hate feeling like this and I need to sort this out.

                Back at it, felt great to hit the badminton court. Slammed some noob with brand new $150 trainers who works in Amazon, 11-3.

                Will probably get back on the IF this week as well.

                    Been doing this for a little while now and am finally seeing results.

                        Jules72 isn’t a healthy diet and exercise enough to boost that? I know it gets more difficult as we get older, but if you don’t want moobs, eat better and do more exercise.

                        I don’t take any supplements, mainly because I’ve not looked into it, but I always look at my diet first when it comes to things I may be lacking. However I’m no expert so I’m probably completely wrong.

                            RichM Yes, strenght training and proper nutrition and sleep is good for T-levels. Although (obviously) it will just keep your T-levels up to what is considered normal for your age (mostly). Try as one may, a 50 year old man will never reach T-levels of a 23 year old naturally. It will drop off with age.

                            T-replacement therapy has it’s uses but it’s also a trendy thing right now and I would wager that 80% of men doing it have no medical reason for it and they convince themselves “this is different from what bodybuilders do” but it really isn’t. It’s just that pro bodybuilding takes it to extremes.

                            Most men nowadays reaching for T-replacement therapy as some holy grail should prob just mind their diet and the way they train far better.
