What's up guys, Derek? Morepolicemoredys.com.

Today, we are going to be going over another frequently asked question.

I figure why not knock some of these out?

Because I don't really have time to do elaborate videos right now while I'm traveling.

So I got this in my comment section on my video the other day.

It was Derek, where do you draw the line between a cycle and TRT?

150 to 200 milligrams of test a week and do the moderate TRT doses like 150 milligrams, not also

stress the body. So I said this is a good video, video topic. I'll try and record it today.

I've sort of touched on this before. I've done videos about, you know, TRT dosages, how much you naturally produce versus

TRT dosages, how to quantify an actual milligrams, what your endogenous testosterone production

is actually doing, which is actually a lot lower than most people think because they think

150 milligrams.

Oh, that's replacement.

When in reality, you produce like 70 milligrams if you're a genetic phenom per week, 70.

Realistically, you're probably like 40 to 50 milligrams per week. Maybe like 50 milligrams if you're

young with normalish testosterone level. So 50 milligrams, no ester attached testosterone.

So with 150 milligrams a week of, let's just say, test E, once you cleave the ester off,

you're left with still like significantly a higher amount than you would produce naturally.

Now milligram for milligram, it doesn't necessarily equate to the same nanogram per decilator total test

level on paper. However, a lot of people don't take into account that you drive down your

SHBG when you're using exogenous androgens. So when you're using testosterone in a TRT

context, especially when you're doing bolus dosages once or twice a week, like traditional TRT
