Hope,
I don't come on here often anymore....but in a short amount of reading these posts I can still tell that you are the same f*** that you were when I left. Now I don't know why it is so hard to get along with people on a freakin' message board but you are one of the few not to do it...
I've put on 8-10 pounds of muscle and feel pretty much the same, as far as workout intensity. I'm a little more cut now...but that's due to the change of my routine. I've been lifting 10 years....and I can't ever say that I've always felt really good or rested or making gains.
Plateaus are...
It was August of 1999. I was going home from Ft. Leonard Wood, MO for my sister's wedding. I cut my hair at about 1/4 inch on top....shaved the sides........I noticed that my hairline above the temples was receding. I went into denial.

Wow...I haven't been here in awhile. Alot of the old names are gone already....I still see Stingray and Rockstar, and of course the regulars.
There still seems to be alot of negative on here.....and I do better mentally without it. I still come on here every once and awhile and check out...

Too good to be true?
Well....after 7 plus months of finasteride/min/nizoral those stubborn bastard little vellous hairs are getting darker and darker.
I'm talking about hair GROWING in places that it has not been since early 2000. I'm serious. Keep with your regimen...good things may happen...
It's never a bad thing to change up your workout routine...more cardio, less cardio, more weight, less weight....it's all a good idea. The switching up of routines is what helps your muscles grow and also avoids plateaus.
Just remember this: You get stronger and grow during rest and proper...
Philly...you look like I did at 23....my problem was that I did not know that I was losing my hair. You have a GREAT chance of keeping your loss under control.
I would start with at least some finasteride. If you want max regrowth use %5 minoxidil....and throw in some Nizoral and T-Gel...
Guys, Nomad may be one f-ed up ugly nose pickin' son of a b**ch....but he knows what he is talking about.....
STAY WITH THE REGIMEN. PATIENCE IS KEY.
.....and like Jon Bon Jovi said....."Stick to your guns."
Just kidding Nomad.
