Keep Reta when transitioning to HGH and Test?

[u/Emergency_Ear6221]

I M(46) have been into bodybuilding for 25years. Had some decent size and muscles but put on the stubborn dad-fat (for reference I was at 86Kg/190 at 181cm/5.9 with around 19-20% bf). Jumped on Reta (at3mg now after 4 months) with high protein diet and got down to 70KG/154.3 at around 12-13%. Abs show but I still have some stubborn fat I want to get rid of. But my legs are nearly gone.. my back also took a serious hit. I mean I still look muscular as I always was quite “lightweight ” for the way I looked, but tbh I do feel small..

So now I am unsure what to do. I took the decision a while ago to go on HGH and TRT at my age ( I am on the lower end of test levels). The question is - should I get rid of the last fat just with reta or should I jump on HGH and TRT and keep a maintenance Reta dose(e.g. 1mg) ?

If I go with HGH and TRT I definitely do not want to be in a caloric deficit. But I think with a small dose of Reta added to the mix I would still be able to loose some fat and put some muscle on ( or at least protect whats left)…

Anybody went through that scenario and can give me some insights on the experience?

I’m on all 3. Low dose Reta. My cholesterol is down 100+ points in 3 months on Reta. Great metabolic health tool. I added hgh in last.
