Here's How Testosterone (TRT) Helped Me Heal After a Huge Injury

Taking the back roads to avoid rush-hour traffic seemed like a great idea. It was 4 p.m., and I was anxious to get to my friend’s house as quickly as possible. I was driving 55 mph as I began to crest one of the last hills on the route. A driver headed in the opposite direction tried to pass the car in front of him on a double line.

Want to Build Lower Body and Core Strength? Master the Pistol Squat

It’s common for cyclists to prefer spending time in the saddle rather than at home doing strength exercises or at the gym lifting weights. In fact, Riki Bryan, founder of the Hard Boiled Holistics fitness studio in Brooklyn, New York, agrees. “I’d rather be cycling or surfing or doing something fun outdoors,” he says. “But in NYC, it’s hard to do that on a daily basis.

No Surprise Here — Excessive Drinking Can Induce Detrimental Effects on Your Exercise Capacity

But heading out of the gates at full throttle without a proper prerun warmup is a recipe for disaster: injury. If you start out too fast, you run the risk of pulling a muscle, tweaking a tendon, bone, or joint, or getting into a pace that you simply can’t sustain. The result? You end up slowing down and burning out before you’re done with your workout. The worst
