Here is another fact...inject 500mg of test a week for 2 months without touching a weight and it won’t do a damn thing but put water weight on you. You have to train just as hard on hormones . Yes you recover faster and reach new levels of strength but you still have to put in work.

Participants received injections of 600 mg of testosterone enanthate or placebo weekly for 10 weeks.

Men treated with testosterone who did not work out (T+NoE) gained nearly double the muscle mass as did those who received placebo injections but regularly exercised (NoT+E; 3.2 kg vs 1.9 kg increase).Of course, the increase in muscle mass among the men in the testosterone-plus-exercise group dwarfed both these groups, averaging 6.1 kg.
