[the other half]

k, so here is the new deal, i had my blood checked for like a 100 different things, since im starting to get old, and the found that my testosterone was low(259). so my new doc put me on 5 gr. of testim. so i just started taking that on monday.

im am really excited to see what this will do for me. the information on the box says it will help with muscle mass, losing body fat and of course raise the libido.

so, now i just need to clean up the diet and add some cardio and hopefully by summer i will have lost some fat and gained alittle bit of mass.
i should take some pics for reference, and no i am not gonna post them.

Was that katt's idea?

 

[the other half]

Was that katt's idea?
