What is your eGFR? Age? Blood pressure?
- Thread starter malfeasance
- Start date
Definitely...and bad timing for me to get a physical then. Normally my BP hangs around 120/70 or so give or take a few. Just getting on a cycle my BP soars thru the roof.

Got labs run last week, results today. My cholesterol was always a horrendous mess regardless of what I was running. Last LDL in December was over 250, eGFR for some reason was 53, was 71 the prior reading. Liver values both outside reference range by a small margin, but, it was always pretty close to a training session. HCT and RBC usually pretty high and/or out of range even at TRT dosages. So, this time I decided I would run astralagus, 600mg NAC/day, I caved and agreed to 20mg/day rosuvastatin. I took 3 days off from training before labs. I skipped 2 shots(on 200mg/week prop), and drank 6 liters of water before the blood was drawn. Welp, eGFR was 65, only one liver value out of range by 1 point. LDL down to 76, HCT 50and RBC 16.9, BP 120/80. Looks like I’m ready to blast, just need the green light for this shoulder now.
31, eGFR never tested under 75, BP has trickled into the 140/90 range during offseason. I decided to add telmisartan to my protocol for that and it’s other benefits.

Pulled a 125/55 at hospital yesterday. Since doing morning cardio 5 days a week I have dropped from 140/80 down to where I'm at now.

Over what period of time did you see that change? Did you make any other changes than cardio?
Wow. Any tips for readers in their 50s who have not seen that kind of blood pressure in years?

I'd say about a 6 weeks. No other changes. Only drugs I'm on is 140mg test C a week and 3.33iu HGH. I just started an ECA stack and pulled those numbers while on that as well

What are those other benefits? Any possible side effect from it?

The hemodynamic and cardiovascular effects of angiotensin II are mediated by its binding to receptors on the surface of target cells within central and peripheral blood vessels, and within the heart and other organs. AT1 receptors are thought to mediate all the major deleterious effects of angiotensin II, including vasoconstriction, cell growth and cardiac and vascular remodelling.

- On top of lowering blood pressure, telmisartan provides two other benefits: lowering blood sugar levels (by improving insulin sensitivity) and lowering cholesterol levels. The added blood sugar benefit sets telmisartan apart from olmesartan and losartan.
- Both telmisartan and olmesartan lower cholesterol levels, but compared to olmesartan, telmisartan is better at lowering LDL (“bad”) cholesterol levels. So, there’s that.

Also, regarding telmisartan, go read Victor Black’s IG, he’s big on it for a number of reasons.
Yeah but what about telmisartan side effect? I have read the bill Robert articles and some of it are not that great for a bodybuilder.
Would you take it even if you do not have high BP? I'm thinking that maybe I could try it at 40mg only on cycle to keep BP at bay and all those nice benefit for insulin sensitivity still need to check more on the possible side effect or everyone would just take telmisartan only because it's great even with normal BP.
