5 month transformation - 185lbs to 160. Job not finished
Tesa + Ipamorelin cycling question
Been running Tesa for almost 10 weeks, at week 5 I added Ipamorelin at a 3:1 ratio
Recently heard that unlike Tesamorelin, Ipamorelin should only be used about 4 weeks at a time to prevent or minimize pituitary receptor desensitization/downregulation
Stopped adding Ipa after 5 weeks after hearing this but still on Tesa. Does anyone have research, opinions or personal experiences pertaining to this?
2/25 - 7/1 recomp with peptides, advice?
Reta 2mg (13 weeks)
Tesa 1mg (9 weeks)
Ipa 300mcg (4 weeks now break)
GHK-Cu (5 weeks)
Filtering peptides?
Who is filtering their peptides? Why or why not? I tested multiple vials from my supplier and they all came back >99.8%, non detect endotoxins and within 5% of the mass weight.
I understand most labs don’t offer sterility testing but have read just under 10% of vials submitted for sterility testing end up “failing”.
Not overly concerned safety wise as I’ve used both filtered and unfiltered product from my vendor with effectiveness and no negative side effects. Just want to hear some opinions, reasoning and experiences.
37yrs old - 3 month cut/recomp progress and protocol
5’10” 185 to 162 Feb 24th - May 24th
Peptides
Reta - .5mg titration to 2mg per week by week 6, split dosing on Monday and Thursday night. Wanted to milk low doses and found enough appetite suppression if I focused on protien
Tesamorelin - 1mg nightly, started on month 3 (4 weeks ago), 3.5-4 hours after last meal before bed. Try to wait as long as possible to achieve maximum GH pulse, since Reta slows digestion so post meal insulin can stay high for longer. Noticed deeper sleep almost immediately which has been great for recovery
Ipamorelin - 300mcg nightly, started 10 days ago
Interested in how the Tesa/Ipa blend will help weeks 5-12 as I’m reading most see visible results around week 8. Will likely start MOTS-C and NAD for cellular energy and increased insulin sensitivity / fat oxidation. GHK-CU or KLOW for overall repair. Prefer to ease the peptides in one at a time slowly
Food
1700-2000 calories. I know 1700 is too low but baby at home and life gets busy, focusing on 140-160 grams of protein per day. Generally clean eating with some cheat meals so my wife doesn’t think I’m a no fun psycho
Exercise
Months 1-2 - Black coffee and 20-25 minutes incline walking. Afternoon or early evening lifts 5 days a week (medium difficulty)
Month 3 - Cut out most of the fasted zone 2 cardio, weight was getting too low. Replaced with lifting or afternoon lifting after food 4-5 times a week
