Introduction

A 41-year-old man with a height of 5'9" and starting weight of 165lbs transformed his body by gaining 25lbs in a few months. He shared his before and after pictures on Reddit and received a lot of positive responses. We'll take a closer look at his journey and find out what workout and diet plan he followed to achieve this transformation.

Workout Routine

The man states that he invested more time and effort into gym sessions after being granted more free time after starting a new job. He aimed for 4-5 gym days a week to maximize muscle growth. No further details of the workout routine were provided, but consistency was one of the keys to his success.

Diet

The man still struggles with his diet as he hasn't fully dialed it in yet. No specific diet plan was mentioned, but he suggests that this is an essential aspect of his journey he still needs to work on. A good diet plan should provide the required macronutrients and micronutrients and facilitate muscle growth.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)

One Reddit user asked if the man was a user of TRT or not. The man replied that he was on TRT treatment as his initial testosterone levels were around 390. According to him, he now stays around 750 with the treatment. TRT can improve muscle building potential but should only be used under a doctor's recommendation.

Conclusion

A man's journey from 165lbs to 190lbs through consistent gym sessions and TRT treatment is a testament to the effectiveness of these methods. His journey leads to identifying that a good diet is also as essential as any other aspect of weight gain. There is no one size fits all approach to body transformation, the key is to keep trying and find what works for you.
