TRT and Medical Challenges in Australia

Yeah, I think so. Like advice for those people who are a couple years in because we know it is and it seems to be a growing trend. Yeah, I mean it's always been there but I think now people talk about it more and there's more exposure because of social media and people are more comfortable saying, I'm on this, I'm on this, I'm on this. I've always been transparent with everybody. When I do education, I tell them all the stuff I've done. If I was on something now, I'd tell anybody, but you can obviously tell them not on anything. I can't get anything here, and it's illegal. I still want to get my citizenship, so I'd just be small, with no libido or weak hard-ons. I'm trying to find a doctor. If you're a doctor listening to this and you want to help me out, I'm hypogonadal. Please give me some testosterone. but you know that that's hard too i went to a doctor a few weeks ago because i had a this lingering sore throat and uh i showed up i've never been to this guy before and he opens the door and he's like uh he looks like like he's from nairobi or something i'm like oh this guy would give me whatever the fuck i want no problem this is one of those tiny clinics you walk in he's like what do you want so we talk and he's he's writing out my prescriptions for antibiotics and all this shit and uh he goes i want you to get some blood work when's the last time you got blood work i went well last september and he goes okay i want you to get blood work i said don't worry about that i'll order my own labs because i'm going to order a lot more than you're going to put on there and he goes well what would you put on there i said well i probably put on testosterone i should do y'all blah blah blah he goes do you have low testosterone well on my last on my last one i had low free and i had low total testosterone so i'd like to talk to you about possibly getting on some trt and he looks me up and down and he goes i don't think you need it I'm like, fuck, man. Because the doctors here, they just think it's about your muscles. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I'm 44 years of age. I'm hypogonadal. It's like, it's not about that. It's about the antidepressant qualities. It's about the lack of sleep qualities, the stress. It's about a lot more than just that. So even going through that with the doctor, they still would be pretty hesitant to prescribe it. Yeah, it's still that. Now, you go down the Gold Coast, you're cool. You go down the Gold Coast, they'll write you anything you want. You walk in, there's a bunch of other meatheads in there. everybody's ignoring each other or either they're eyeballing each other he's got the biggest biceps you go in they go alright cool I'll write you anything you want to test, anivortran also here's a voucher for a free neck tattoo at my tattoo clinic that's the Gold Coast thing right but yeah I'll tell you from a viewpoint of what I tell people because obviously when people come to coach if they're competing you're going to have that conversation I never bring it up like i never i don't actually train very many people that are on gear uh and that's always a personal choice for them but it's my job to tell them how to do it so they don't fuck themselves up yeah for sure because the last thing i want is somebody to take a bunch of shit end up in the hospital and then everybody knows i'm coaching them i'm like hold up i didn't tell them to do that so i'll always advise what to do um but what i always tell people is take take the smallest amount possible and see what that does and if if you get to the point where that's not doing it anymore you can always add a little bit more add a different compound but if you go full bore it's hard to pull back on it so like my my thing for most guys is just take trt dose and see what that does because for a lot of guys if you just take a trt dose that'll put three or four kilos on you in a month and then you can add a little bit more if that's not enough but guys don't want to do that they want to jump into two grams yeah just jump straight in this is where your boy day trend disagrees with you. We were on his TikTok just before having a look at him and he's like, so, listen here, guys. He's like, if I get a lot of people ask me, I recommend don't do it, but if you're going to do it, you've got to jump on 500 of test day. Not 400, not 600, not 300. It's got to be 500. So, that it Your boy disagrees with you man That it That so silly Why is 500 the magic number I was going to say who do we listen to here Do we listen to the guy with the sound logical advice or do we listen to the guy who has the number And the name. And the name. The name's the big one. Yeah.
