How to Burn Fat on TRT
Introduction
Many people are on TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy) for one of two reasons. Either they have Low T, or their body is producing too much estrogen. In either case it may seem like a no-brainer to take more testosterone, but just taking TRT will not automatically result in weight loss.Read on to learn more about how to burn fat while on TRT.
What is TRT and How Can it Help You Burn Fat?
TRT, or testosterone replacement therapy, is the process by which a person's natural testosterone levels are restored through supplements or injections. Testosterone plays a key role in metabolism and the burning of fat, so TRT can be an effective way to help you lose weight.As a man ages, his testosterone levels decrease, resulting in the deceleration of the metabolic process. As a result, the body tends to store more fat when its testosterone levels decline. But when it augments the testosterone through TRT, the body begins to burn fat again.
How to Start a TRT Program
To get on a TRT program, you first must find a doctor who is knowledgeable about TRT and has experience prescribing it. Second, you'll need to get blood work done to determine your current hormone levels. This will help your doctor prescribe the appropriate dose of testosterone for you.Third, you will need to make sure that you're eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly. Finally, you will need to be patient and stick with your program since it may take some time for you to see any results.
