Is 22 too late to start college when I graduated from high school at 19 ?
Oh, heavens no! At 22, you are still a baby to this world! However, for some, at 22 they already have quite a bit of worldly experience. Take military veterans, for example. Typically, people in the US graduate high school at 17 or 18, if they do a hitch in the military, they will get out around 22 years of age. They will find it a little more difficult to fit in as they will not necessarily agree with the more left-leaning doctrine usually found in colleges and universities. Their life-experiences will contradict a lot of what is told to freshmen right out of high school. Other than being seen as an older person (I know, right!) and possibly not being in the same mindset as other students in your same year, 22 is not too old.
How can a man increase his testosterone?
Assuming that you’ve dealt with all the basic causes of low T — get adequate sleep, lose weight if overweight, cut excess alcohol, get adequate zinc and vitamin D, etc., etc. — and assuming you do not want to inject T (the only 100% reliable way to raise T), here is a quick checklist of possibilities, which will generally be more effective for younger guys (under 40), and possibly effective for older guys:Low-dose aromatase inhibitors, like letrozole. Quite effective, but easy to overdo! Don’t overdose. In the case of letrozole, dose range is 100–250 mcg (MICROgrams, not milligrams!).PDE5 inhibitors like sildenafil and tadalafil (like Viagra[tm] and Cialis[tm]). Yes, these actually can raise T levels, apart from their more well-known direct effects on sexual function. They stimulate T synthesis in the balls. They also help heal vascular endothelium (common cause of erectile dysfunction) and promote remodeling (regeneration) of the penis. These are good drugs, which most older men should probably be taking continuously.HCG - Human Chorionic Gonadotropin. This is an injectable peptide hormone that stimulates the balls to make T. It works. It also maintains testicle size when on TRT (i.e. prevents ball shrinkage that can occur when on T therapy).Clomiphene and Enclomiphene. Quite effective to raise T. Dose should be carefully controlled; often, less is more. Clomiphene in higher doses can cause mood problems. Apparently, the new enclomiphene (an isomer of clomiphene) is more effective with less possibility of side effects.Opiate receptor blockers, naltrexone and naloxone. These raise T by disinhibiting hypothalamic gonadotropin releasing hormone. Used with some success in hypogonadism and erectile dysfunction.All the nutrition-like stuff, such as D-aspartic acid, acetylcarnitine, boron, creatine, etc. D-aspartic acid looks best. Generally rather weak but worth a try if you’re younger (under 40). Older guys: a crapshoot, but no harm done by trying.Before actually undertaking any of this, you should do your homework carefully. Read up. Become an expert. Know what you are doing. I would recommend that you be under the care of a health professional who understands all this stuff, but I’m unsure that any exist. It took me months of research to compile the above list. I can’t imagine a busy doctor doing that, but maybe I am wrong. Maybe there are a few doctors out there, somewhere, who have sufficiently-comprehensive knowledge of all these options. Good luck.
Thinking about taking steroids?
Everyone is going to tell you not too, but if your like me, you know what you want and your gonna do it anyways so at least i can help you a little bit... Alright first off you are too young to start them... if you still want to in a few years then I say go for it! but starting them now would hurt you in the long run (stunt your growth).. I have done a few different cycles and I can tell you if you do it right, you will not be unhappy with the results. To me it is one of the best feelings in the world, going into the gym with that much power in you veins... and I would not say it is cheating... If you are lifting to get big and to get big alone, that what/who are you cheating? Its not like you take steroids and you instantly get big, you take them and you work your *** off and it feels great so you keep doing it. If you wanted them to play sports or something like that than It would be cheating. but if your lifting just to get big, its not cheating... its just like putting your money in a bank with a high interest rate instead of the normal 2%... If/when you do start, Start with a mild one and see how it treats your body (Test E or Sust) and dont try to do any crazy cycles right off the bat. Also BE SURE you do a proper down-cycle so you dont hurt yourself.. I never had any problems/side effects at all and i now have a kid on the way so do it right and nothing bad will happen.. be sure you read on forums and do your research
I'm an 18-year-old man. I'm depressed about my height 5′ 4″ (162 cm). What can I do to be taller?
When I was 11 years old I hit the height of 6′. I was going to high school and I felt awkward to say the least as all my friends going to school with me were a good few inches shorter.I get to my new school and I had the living shit kicked out of me due to my height. I was a child in a mans body, but people didn't see it like that. They saw me as an easy target and I was bullied until I got to my last couple of years and I began to fight back.I'm now 36 and 6′8 and I'm still ridiculed by people who don't know me. I can barely get a date as women think I'm too tall and it would look like I was walking with a child holding hands and that they would feel uncomfortable being seen with someone like me. (Actual quotes).So being tall is no picnic either my young friend. You have to put up with things we are given. Hell I'm not good looking but that doesn't stop me from trying to chat up some of the nicest ladies around if I get rejected I just move on.Height is nothing to be concerned about it's what you have inside and the person you are and will become is what will define you as a person and not how tall you are. You're 18 you have a lot of life to live so just live it enjoy your life and your youth and stop fretting about your height.Be a good person and it will make you the biggest person in the world. Just don't worry about your height that is nothing. I hope you luck and I hope you realise you don't need height to be a big man you need a big heart and a good soul to be a big man, the biggest man you can become!
