Man, ya'll have no idea how happy I am to find this site.
I've been to the dredges of the internet and back trying to find a community like this. From BOP, to Evolutionary, to isarms... here I am.
I'm a 34 year old guy, 6'1", 180lbs. Somewhat lean (~15%), but with some persistent padding on my stomach. Currently running PPL 4-6 times a week. I've been suffering from low T symptoms for the past decade or so, but attributed it to alcohol or shitty sleep or stress or w/e else was going on at the time. About a year and a half ago, I got serious about health and fitness (cutting drinking, eating right, sleeping better, lifting more) and have felt pretty good, but man... I'm still a sluggish, hard gainer. Libido sucks, motivation just doesn't exist sometimes. I live a generally stress-free life and have an awesome family.
I ran some blood work through PrivateMD last week and my Test is sitting around 350. My doctor refuses to consider TRT. So.... after way too much time researching and being inundated with bro science, I'm just gonna chill here for a while and absorb what I can. I've been on the hunt for sources but I'm finding it difficult to trust most of the "reviews" I've found. They feel a bit shilly if you know what I mean. I've thought about going dark, but I'm being patient. You only get one body, you better treat it right.
I hear you guys are pretty smart so I'm hopeful that I can learn a lot here. Thanks for having me.

. Would like to gain 15-20lbs lean muscle and lose the bit of padding I have now.
