question from a user

Would a person that has low test and takes trt build more or less muscle than an average person that doesn’t take anything?

AlphaMD's Answer

They would generally build the same amount of muscle, assuming that "average person" was not also a low Testosterone individual. This is because the primary goal of TRT is to get you back to where you belong, not necessarily shoot you over it.

The science speaks for itself. The average man who starts TRT gains 10 lbs of muscle and loses 2 lbs of fat without working out.
