IMO…

80-125mg/week = TRT dose, would put your level to the high end of natural 700-900 ng/dl

125-200mg/week = “sports” TRT (weird name because it’s banned in drug tested sports, but that’s what they call this now) which will put you probably slightly above natural range, supraphysiological 1000+ng/dl. Lotta people do this because for most it’s at a point where they won’t likely have any estrogen conversion (but no guarantee of not)

200-500mg/week = actual cycle, and would probably be a good idea to look at an estrogen blocker like anaztrazole. Stupid to try to stay on this year round but many people do. The problem with staying on it year round is there is no way to lower your estrogen to within a natural range. The prescription blockers are just too strong for that. So what they’ll do is crush it down to nothing, and no estrogen in men is bad. Bad for your brain, bad for your junk, and bad for your bones/joints. So you have two options, grow man boobs or walk around with no estrogen in your body because you are taking a drug that removes it. Either one is not healthy

And when Jeff asks how much muscle to put on, it’s a loaded question. The initial “size” is just water retention in the muscle, it’s not dry lean actual muscle. No one can really tell when and where the water ends and the muscle begins, both in growth and appearance

It's intriguing how the perspective on testosterone doses has evolved over the years. There's no one-size-fits-all answer, and it's essential to consider individual factors and goals. The breakdown you've provided into different dose ranges and their potential effects is quite informative. BUT you're definetly right with this "Either one is not healthy"
