Go get your hormones checked out.
I had bloodwork done two months ago. The doctor said “everything was fine”.
I’ve been quite lazy with my routine the past year. I only do some core strengthening exercises since I’m so tired all the time. I work a job that has a 90 minute commute there and back, and it doesn’t help that I absolutely hate what I do for a living (electrician’s apprentice). I wonder if that might have to do with how I’ve been feeling all year.
doctors are morons. you may have a b-12 or iron deficiency.
Did you get your testosterone levels checked (and actually saw the results because doctors will say everything is fine if you have the levels of a 90 year old man)
Wah, you think spending the majority of your time doing something you hate is having negative effects on your body
That sounds crazy. Since that's what almost everyone alive does
I think you might be gay
I've been working as an electrical installer til I can get in the apprenticeship so I know how you feel. I'm thinking of quitting and trying to get into IT, this job fricking sucks and it seems it still sucks as a journeyman. Nearly every journeyman I've seen is miserable or an butthole and that's not how I want to end up.
OP here. It really blows. You can definitely make good money as an electrician but I’d rather not spend the majority of my week doing something I hate. I know of some electricians that enjoy their job and do very well. But I doubt that will be me. good luck out there, bro.
I’ll get it checked out.
Holy shit. How do you feel compared to before?
Insomnia is gone
Body fat percentage is down
Strength is up
Anxiety gone
Caffeine addiction eradicated but still enjoy a sip on occasion(1/3 of the dose that I would've had before)
Should I get 5000 IU Vitamin D if my multivitamin already has 2000 IU? It probably doesn't absorb much of it, right?
Extra won't hurt as long as you do it right.
50,000 is what I took, important to take vitamin k, vitamin D does not fully control where the calcium in your body ends up. That’s where vitamin K steps in, it stops the calcium from staying your bloodstream and sends it to the Bones and muscles. Vitamin D can also deplete potassium so take that too, the magnesium is need to activate Vitamin D, Zinc also helps activation.
That’s great to hear. I know a couple of people in this thread discourage the consumption of such a high amount of vitamin D, but my experience with doctors has been less than stellar. They’re usually no help and offer advice I could find on Google. So I’ll take my chances with a few vitamins.
Based, frick doctors. They don't tell people that your body takes the Calcium from your bones if you're deficient in Vitamin D which caused me years of pain and suffering.
most backpain gets better with time. also humans have periods of low energy. try to think back to when you were motivated to train. did you change anything in your routine?
Welcome to the real world jackass.
You're getting older, by the time you're thirty your testosterone will be half of what it was in your teen years.
You can get a month worth of vitamin D (50000u) over the counter. Take it once a week. Some some reason it helped me a lot, eventho I wasn't really deficient in the bloodwork
Really? I might actually take the plunge.
Caffeine gives me stomach issues and unrelenting headaches. Adderall and meth are not of any interest to me.
Yes, still feel tired but I do feel like I can do more in the day. Also I felt like as was in the weird not sick but not healthy state and it helped a lot
Take it everyday for two months along with vitamin k, potassium, magnesium and zinc.
Then taper off
Take the magnesium with it
I feel better than ever, and I've stopped taking it now that I'm no longer deficient.
Very important to stop once you reached the yellow line
have you tried caffeine, Adderall, or meth?
have you tried not being a b***h? pretty effective from what i’ve heard
You're a sedentary DYEL loser with the physiology of a 70 year old. You also probably have sleep apnea.
>lethargic all day
Fix your diet. you probably consume a large portion of carbs at lunch
>serious back pain
if its lower back pain you need to get your balls checked bro
Could be piriformis syndrome or other pelvic floor issue. Pretty much your piriformis muscle gets too tight due to hip muscle imbalances. If it spasms, it pinches your sciatic nerve causing back pain. It will also tug on your pelvic floor muscles, which can restrict blood flow to your balls and cause low t, and other issues. Try happy baby stretch, and work your glute medius to start.
This can be very helpful. Thank you for sharing. I never thought of this being an issue.
Are you still taking 50,000iu of vitamin D?
I’ve just recently started cutting down on carbs from my diet. What is your typical lunch like?
I take it every other week.
I checked the safe dosage limit and you can take it every week. I did one month every week and then once every other week. No side effect.
Get your gallbladder and kidneys screened
For the first three it's your life itself. You should be heading towards a different path
Sleep apnea
nta but I have the same symptoms, I feel like I sleep poorly too, but I've never woken up short of breath and I don't snore, should i still be aware to sleep apnea?
Yeah you can still have sleep apnea without symptoms of snoring or suffocation. You should get a sleep recording app just so you can be sure about the snoring though. I didn't think I snored up until a few months ago.
OP is actually fine, he's just making sure that whoever actually has these issues doesn't figure out what is wrong with them. This board is shit and filled with trolls like the gay saying to overdose in vitamin D, which will cause magnesium depletion. These people are b***hes scared of potential competition and should be laughed at. gay.
Here’s what’s going on: there’s something wrong with your body or the way it’s adapting to your environment. My recommendation?
> Do whatever it takes to get a full nights sleep, every night.
> Cut out processed carbs and prepackaged ‘food’, eat a clean diet. > Drink more water than you currently are.
>If you use any drugs on a daily basis - including caffeine and alcohol - cut back. These substances should only be used every once and awhile to enhance a day off
> Move your body. Walk or run and do compound weight lifting movements.
>Reduce screen time, if your compulsively going on social media sights or gaming - you are wasting your time.
Do all these things. Keep it up for a few weeks. See how you feel. Then you will have taken basic responsibility for your health.
>I think you might be gay
These are the miserable people OP is asking advice from.
stop jerking off
Problem? SOLVED
