No testosterone on Lupron, can I build muscle strength by working out?

I'm on Orgovyx for 14 mos now, Maintaining for me is challenging enough, gains are difficult at best....I feel at this point I have started to make slight gains, but I was fairly strong for my weight before all this and no where near that level any longer.
I try to work out 4 days a week and run 2 miles with each workout. So far so good..
"Hang in there and fight thru the fatigue." is the best advise I can offer as well. It makes me feel a LOT better to work out. When I take a short break to travel or work gets in the way, I feel much worse.

I am on Orgovyx for 13 months. I work out every other day, and take care of 9 homes with yard work and landscaping. It isn't easy, and it seems you have to keep on the schedule. I definitely feel better if I do my activities. So far, biggest issue is severe hand pain. Not sure if it's from the orgovyx or? I have not gained any weight, but do not have as much strength as before treatment, but feel I am maintaining now.
