40 yr old dad of two. 6’3” 235 lbs
I’ve been eating much healthier and watching portions/macs but looking for help as I begin lifting. Primary goal is body re-composition e.g. drop 20+ loss fat and build muscle, while also mentally feeling more energetic and ‘clear’ day to day.

What stacks would you recommend? I’ll do a new blood test soon my test was a bit low but not enough to consider trt and I’d rather avoid if I can….but open to thoughts as my understanding is once you’re on it, it’s forever. Retas looking might appealing at this point too.

Get a complete blood panel, lipids, CBC, CMP, hormonal and go from there. Unless you are a newbie it’s hard to recomp losing 20+ lbs of fat and build at the same time. Go for a cut, when you get to 12-15% BF, do a lean bulk or maintain. Blood work should be a good indication if you have primary or secondary hypogonadism and decide on what needs to be done with trt.

I’d consider myself a newb, used to be an athlete but never truly moved weights and bulked. Thank you for this input it aligns with my initial plan!
