I don't know the timing but I definitely feel the slowdown. For me it usually happens every 7 - 10 years. i felt one at 55 when my back finally said no more heavy squats or deads. I just felt another at 64 where I need mroe recovery time, maybe more because I sleep like shit now.
For me 10 days after my last shot is perfect to bring the levels mid range.
I have been on TRT since 2012 but still went on and off for a long time. I sort of scammed the trt by taking 10 mg of anavar for a week and then dropping it for 4 days before testing. I halved my test level like that. I'm 64 and still do light cycles but for a TRT plus I have used both Primobolan or Masteron at low dose on top of my TRT. I'm talking 1/2 the test dose. Last time I checked blood work was all in range for both. Things change over time though.
Wow, 100mg Anavar seems like a lot. I have done a cycle with test and 25mg anavar, and I am finishing my current cycle at 50 mg anavar. I love Anavar too.
Be careful. If i did that with those dosages I would crash my estrogen from the Primo and block what's left wit the masteron.
My last Test, Primo, Mast cycle I did crash my e2. I have learned to dial up my Test to 175 - 200 to counter that and keep e2 in the 20's to low 30's. I respond well, with 160mg/week Test putting me at 1911 (264.0-916.0) total and 84.08 (5.00-21.00) free T .
I produce way less e as well at 57. Also, pretty much all dht derivatives (Primo, Mast, DHB) make my joints ache even at low doses. My latest experiment 250 t cyp and 140dhb a week my e was 15 after 8 weeks.
Curious in what way EQ is too hard on you now. Bloods, mental sides (anxiety, etc.), other?
62 here. Started TRT this past summer and it has been life changing. Not my first run though. Had a doctor in my 40s who recommended and prescribed it. Weekly visits were difficult though. Anyway, I've had to dial in a lot of things over the past few years: My diet, mostly carnivore, has been incredible for me, particularly the elimination arthritis that was developing in my hands. My father had it bad, gnarly, knobby fingers. Right now I'm on a low dose of T: recently increased to 100mg pin 3x/week and feel good. Working out has been incredible. Heaps of endorphins. Sleeping like a rock. At this point I want to be strong(er), but not big. More lean and cut in the end. Cheers, everyone. 
Isn't that what this forum is for: Veteran's Over 40
Quoting from above "Every decade the strategy has to change. Over 50s and over 60 is a different demographic. I think it would be a service to the community and informative for the members to share strategies for nutrition, training, hormones and supplements." Every decade presents different and additional problems that are far and away different for men in their 40s. The Veterans Over 40 section is far weighted away from men in 50s and 60s and over. I never thought we would see so many men using PEDs in this and higher age brackets but here we are.
Couldn't have said it better.
