Just had my lipid checked thru privatemdlabs. Here are the numbers. Feedback is appreciated.

Total Cholesterol 127
Triglycerides 102
HDL Choleterol 32 Low????
VLDL Cholesterol Cal 21
LDL Cholesterol Calc 74
LDL/HDL Ratio 2.3


I also had my E2 checked and it came back at 31.4 and this is based on taking .25mg of Adex once a week. I am going to dose it 2x weekly to see where that lands me. Plus the wood has been kind of soft lately. Not sure if that is related to an E2 reading of 31 or not.

How much of a problem is my low HDL and how can I increase it???

to get your HDL up you can put more Monounsaturated fats in the diet like canola oil, avocado oil, or olive oil and natty in peanut butter. Also fish/fish oil & Niacin.

E2 isn't bad for only taking .25 Adex

With your total number of 127 the 32 HDL is not really an issue. For guys who have higher Totals (i.e. >200) the rule of thumb is HDL >40 is acceptable.

I wouldn't be concerned at all with your profile.

Keep doing what you are doing.

Just me, but an E2 reading of 31 sounds pretty good. At least with me, it doesn't take much liquidex at all to move mine quite a bit. If you were talking about breaking your dose in half and doing it 2x a week, that would probably be ok. If you were talking about doubling up, I expect you would be crashed pretty quickly, at least I know I would.

Don't change your AI dose. 31 is a good reading. I actually feel the best when my e is 40-43.

What compounds are you running btw?

I agree with the AI feedback. I think I may have dropped my E2 too low since posting this thread. Nothing serious, but I feel like I used to feel when my E2 was down in the 14 range, as my mood is basically flat. I think I am on the verge of being able to eliminate my Adex altogether.

My protocol is as follows:

Test Cypionate 75mg Every 84 Hours
HCG 600 IU's Every 84 hours
Adex was taking .25mg weekly with an additional .25mg bi weekly, if that makes sense....going back to weekly @ .25mg
Armour Thyroid 50mg daily

DHEA
B Complex
Multi vitamin
Fish oil

Viagra and Cialis - As needed.....

I signed up with Spongy October 1st, or thereabouts. Also at the same time I quit drinking alcohol and have not had a drop since then.

my diet is clean as shit. I think I have had two or three cheat meals since October 1.

My cardio is inconsistent, mostly because I rely on mountain biking for my cardio and I don't always get out to ride. My goal is 4 cardio workouts of 30-45 minutes a week and in the last 7 days I have had two workouts.

My weight training structure seems to do a helluva job getting my heart rate up though.....

Thanks man. Alcohol has done me no favors. My problem is I am usually all or nothing and struggle with moderation. Right now I am all about recomping so no booze!
