NP, you did not, you made a sad face about his butt. |
Getting prescribed testosterone takes an act of god from a US doctor. Even if you are point above the FDA chart no go. A point below? You get some microdose to get to the lowest level. Testosterone is the most restricted prescription out there. Even more than opioids now. No, a ripped guy in his 60s may have a testosterone prescription but not enough to get him jacked unless shady doctor willing to risk career. This is where the whole peptide or anabolic steroids come in; or crazy discipline to look that - and I would say closer to 55 dudes have to be serious and not on pharmaceutical train to pull it off. |
Use your words. You're not a baby. |
Clearly you don't know a lot of rich men. |
This. See a ripped older dude then he worked out when younger and works his butt off in the gym. I am 60 and while not ripped am pretty muscular and not on anything. I work out in gym with trainer three times a week and run 5 times a week. Also worked out heavy most of my life. It is possible to gain muscle at any age -- it just takes work. I was on a glp1 and lost 60 pounds, 7 of which was muscle, which is a lot less than normal because of the workouts. |
It's you who doesn't. Obviously. |
What is glp shape? |
Ripped and Jacked are two different concepts. Ripped = low body fat, moderate muscle, count calories and it’s very achievable at any age. Jacked = low body fat, a lot more muscle like daywne Johnson, difficult for most men in their 20s too. |

If you are a GLP and still working out hard during the medication how or why do you lose muscle? Like you literally just get weaker? Go from benching 300 to 250 during the weight loss? I get losing muscle if you are not using them but seems weird that your body would not be using the fat stores first for energy conversion than muscle; which is a lot more work for the body compared to fat conversion. |
| I know a lot of men that are on GLP-1s. |
NP. Weight loss is always a result of a combination of muscle and fat loss. Even the most precise weight lifters lose some muscle when they cut. There is no perfect formula to make it’s 100 fat loss and 0 muscle loss. Losing 7 pounds of muscle out 60 total pounds lost is very impressive. |
Sorry for my naïveté, but as collegiate wrestler I’ve dropped 15lbs in days to make weight. A lot of it water of course but no muscle or strength loss. Sucking weight impacts endurance more than strength in my experience. |
It would be unlikely that you actually measured what you lost to determine whether you lost muscle. You likely performed as expected at a wrestling match and called it a day. We are not talking about 20 year olds. We are talking about 40+. |

I know several husbands who are on GLP‘s. Frankly, they look like they have cancer and skin is saggy. A couple go to the gym and it’s a little better but not by much.
