Client Testimonial: Rebuilding Energy, Strength, and Drive In Your 50s
At Maximus, we love spotlighting transformations from our community. Tony, 52, shared how he went from feeling drained and stuck to reclaiming his energy, drive, and performance with Maximus.
Q: Can you tell us a little about your background before joining Maximus?
Tony: I’ve always been physically active. I played college football, was a martial arts instructor out of college. When the pandemic hit, the whole world shut down. I had a couple of little kettlebells, did some running, but without lifting I started losing weight and just didn’t feel so great.
Q: What made you realize you needed a change?
Tony: I told my doctor I wasn’t feeling right. They said, “Tony, you’re not 20 years old anymore. You can’t expect this and you can’t expect that.” But I knew something was off. I had them run a testosterone test—146 total T, 8.5 free T. I said, “Something’s wrong.”
Q: How did you find Maximus?
Tony: I dug and dug on the internet and found Maximus. I joined the Discord, got the eBook. It wasn’t just pills—it was all the pillars, which made total sense. This is a company that’s not just trying to sell you stuff. So many companies are just pushing a pill. Maximus was totally not like that.
Q: What happened when you started enclomiphene?
Tony: The first month, results weren’t so great. But I got into the Discord, talked to my doctor—tried this, tried that. We worked on my sleep, my diet, bumped the dosage. That’s when the magic happened—my total T went from about 650 to 1,100 and my free T to 144, with just Enclomiphene. I was seeing gains in the gym, and at 4 or 5 p.m. I still had energy instead of lying on the couch wishing I was dead.
Q: You later added Blood Flow Protocol. How did that go?
Tony: I was nervous—I don’t even take aspirin. But in about two weeks, I started noticing the Blood Flow kick in. It helped my relationship with my wife, and it was huge for the gym. I posted pictures of my legs—veins popping like never before. Really intense pumps, better recovery—everything they said it would do, it did.
Q: What made you try oral testosterone?
Tony: I knew there was more in the tank. Enclo made me feel good, but oral T took me from good to great. After about two weeks, I felt great. On enclomiphene I feel good—on Oral Testosterone I want to tear it up. The drive is there. Sleep, strength, sex drive, focus—all picked up.
Q: What’s the biggest takeaway from your Maximus experience?
Tony: It’s not just the pills. The pills do what they’re supposed to, but it’s pillars and it’s community. You get top-notch medication, guidance, and access to other guys on the same journey. If they’ve solved a problem you have, you’ve got a place to start. That’s huge.
