1 year on e and I am actually SO weak now, I had to ask my dad to put some weights back on the rack for me when we went to the gym 😭

I used to be able to do 450lb leg press 5 times in a row what happened

I don’t absolutely hate myself anymore so that’s going for me :steamhappy:

    I’ve been 9 years on E and if anything I think I got stronger, because I feel more in touch with my body. I guess this just works different for everyone ._.

      I didn’t lose as much strength as I thought I would, but that’s just because I was as weak as physically possible before HRT. Losing as much strength as others would’ve put me below basic resting muscle mass

        I’m the complete opposite. I started off thin but dense. I would have friends twice my size try to wrestle me and complain that I was too solid. Now, I try to lift weights and run and it’s like holy hell what happened why is this so tough? 4lb dumbbells feel like 10lb used to
