Reply to "Weightlifting and Male Hormone Replacement"

Thanks for your response. I got my pouch 16 years ago at the Cleveland Clinic and have been working out pretty steadily since then. I am currently 53 years old and have been working out with a personal trainer for about a year. I've gotten into the best shape of my life and I feel better than I have in a long time. I also got onto a male hormone replacement treatment program that is medically supervised about 2 years ago. I get that my body has limitations and I certainly don't want to do any serious damage to my pouch because that would be devastating. My doctor told me that he had some patients that ruptured their pouch while lifting weights, so I guess that I have to take that seriously. It's just really hard trying to find a balance that works.
