Big Time Newbie

[ThorSF]

Hello all,
I'm a 40 year old single dad who looked up one day not too long ago and realized I'm fat and out of shape.
So now i'm turning back the clock. I'm not interested in getting "huge", just strong and lean and perhaps a little larger then average mass.I have this on going shoulder thing going on. I'm thinking hgh is the right way to go.
So I'm totally a newbie... I have been reading alot and just seem to be confusing myself even further. Maybe I can find a definition thread here somewhere.
I'm pretty far from finding a source so hopefully I can figure out all I need to know to start in the mean time. Obviously anything anyone can help with information wise would be greatfully appreciated. How does hgh negatively affect joints would be a question I would like to have answerd, I ask that now so I don't forget later..
Thanks in advance to all who will assist and help.

Welcome to the iS. The very first thing to do is get some blood work done including hormones and a good physical. Talk to your doctor about your shoulder. There's no magic potion out there that will fix your shoulder so let the professionals take a stab at it. Some physical therapy on the muscles of a rotator cuff can do wonders with a bothersome shoulder. I'm not going to pretend to know what is wrong with your shoulder. That will take an exam and perhaps some radiographic tests. While your here stop in the nutrition and diet forum and let's get that lined out. You can do it in the steroid forum too. Either one. It's a basic before taking anything anyway. I'd say your a year away from sticking anything into your body. Let's get eating right....get some cardio going....get that shoulder worked out....and a good solid lifting routine going. After that we'll talk more about some chemical help. Without the first part chemical help will be a waste. It's like building a house on shifting sand. It won't work. We need a foundation that we can work off of. Welcome to the rest of your life. Thanks for picking iSteroids for your home. You'll be glad you did and we're lucky to have you here. Read the stickies at the top of the forums and read some of the old posts. We have a search feature you can use to find information. There are PM's (private messages) you can send notes to members. Don't be afraid to start a thread and ask some questions after reading for a while. See you on the boards.

Thanks for the welcoming
Haz, your a buzz kill...lol Man you make way too mch sense. As far as bloodwork would you recommend getting on board with one of those "anti aging" clinics? I have had all my other bloodwork done as part of a physical but no hormone stuff. I guess it's not really covered by insurance. And thanks again for the welcoming. Maybe I convince you guys for some help sooner than a year if I do my part (just seems like a long time when looking at it from the beggining). Good night!
Thor
