To long in the tooth HRT’ers (like me),

I’d really appreciate some assistance here, preferably from an older bodybuilder’s perspective (long in the tooth like me) to supplement my recent Dr. prescribed compounded bio-hormone cream of 50mg/ED application. Below are my goals, my questions, my proposed plan, and some of my stats (best known at this time).

Goals: To remedy my low natural test levels, sluggish lack of energy, and general feeling of being old and tired. To continue implementing my life style of getting better fit, increasing strength & muscle size, while lowering my BF% and getting back my libido for the sweet wife’s sake!

Questions:
- What do you think of the BHRT creams as far as cruising during deloads and all other times when off supplemental gear cycles? (my insurance covers this cream – cost is $8 for 30-day supply)
- What can you tell me about optimal compounded cream applications for bodybuilding?
- Would you please critique below proposed plan?

Proposed Plan (utilizing 8 week reload/2 week deload STS with below TRT in addition to compounded cream):
Week 1-4: 750mg/week Test-E + 20mg/day Dbol
Week 5-8: 850mg/week Test-E
Week 9-10: cream only plus HCG
Week 11-14: 950mg/week
Week 15-18: 1050mg/week
Week 19-20: cream only plus HCG
Week 21-28: Reload but with cream only
Week 29-30: cream only plus HCG
…repeat 30 week cycle indefinitely with no PCT per previous recommendations!?!?

Probably using Dex 0.5mg 3x/week (0.5mg/ED during reload) and adjusting as deemed necessary!

I will also be obtaining blood and saliva tests at least 2x/year (around week 28), though more frequent initially per docs orders.

Stats:
- 49 y/o (happy side of 50 for a few more months)
- 140ng/dl testosterone from recent blood test
- Been resistance training heavy since late 70’s and my USMC years in the 80’s.
- Backpacking, hiking, biking for cardio (mostly just for fun though!)
- Current BF% around 25% at 5’10” 240lbs (stocky and solid, but swelling gut)
- Very good overall health (other than knee issues and surgery that spoiled my 2010 hiking/biking year)

Started cycling and using gear (Test-E, Dbol, EQ, Dex) back in summer 2010. Has been going well except for the yo-yoing in spite of my strict PCT. Currently, I'm just about to come off a 10-week cycle and was preparing to do a PCT as normal with Clomid, Nolvadex, and HCG, but based on some recommendations, due to my age and low test level, decided to use a script I had from back in November for some compounded cream and to simply cruise on this while throwing in some cycled gear blasts.

Thank you so much for any beneficial suggestions!
