@acn25 I have to differ. ADT just works, and it won't "kick your a**" if you fight it. If you do serious resistance training 3 or 4 times per week (weights up to the point of failure), and work in some cardio, not only does it fight muscle loss due to absence of testosterone, it will actually counter much of the fatigue brought on by ADT.

The only real caveat to this is when you are NOT a "physically active person" going into ADT. Then it may well kick your a** because if you weren't physically active before ADT, it will be harder to get off the couch when you haven't had that habit under healthier circumstances. But you gotta. Start slow, and build. ADT is worth it.

@guybe I agree, especially with those aggressive features present.
