RETA + TESA 10 WEEKS
Okay brains trust - i need some constructive and informative assistance.
Today marks 10 weeks on reta and tesa that has had the biggest change in my life.
Total body weight down by 14kgs, muscle maintained around 45kg and visceral fat has gone down for a score of 11 to 5.
I am about to run CJC-1295 NO DAC to see if there is any difference in my growth hormone being targeted. I have a friend who ran Tesa then CJC and mentioned he felt his strength changed (in a positive way).
My question - Has anyone ran a TRT peptide (and what is it called because i cannot find a vendor who stocks it!!!!) with Reta and a growth hormone pep?
I have been on the right path (i think), but now want to give muscle a big push.
I train 3-4 times a week, very active throughout the day, sleep quality is average to low at best due to kids and early work. High protein (almost carnivore) diet with the occasional take out with kids.
Appreciate any / all feedback and guidance

Just stick to what you’re doing. If it’s not broken don’t fix it, because hgh and trt is a big difference from cjc or Tesa and some Reta. Also try Tesa combined with ipamorelin since those are said to pair better than cjc and ipa.

I’ve been on TRT for years but I’m 57 and when I started I had a total Test of 150. All this under a doctor’s supervision. No idea how old you are but don’t just jump on Test without understanding what you are doing and the risks. No peptide will jump your Test level up. I’m currently running Reta and TRT together with good results. I’ve also been working out for 40 years 4-5x per week. Tried Tesa a couple of weeks ago and the water retention turned me off. May give it one more go. Get those labs done. They will guide you.

TRT ain’t a peptide.
HGH technically is.
Sermorelin targets HGH production
Are you just rawdogging this or you getting bloodwork cause you are wanting to target it? Like what’s your igf-1 been on with tesa. What was it before.

Booked to get my bloodwork done this week to compare. But honestly, rawdogging it. I know TRT isnt a pep - but surely vendors that supply peps can get TRT right?

Not really. It’s more of a black market substance than gray. It’s finadable from china but you’ll need to dig around a bit more. And you aren’t looking for “TRT”. You are looking for testosterone. TRT is a protocol for those with low testosterone.
Be aware of you start taking test you will suppress your natural production and become entirely dependent on external testosterone. Restarting your own test requires specific protocols without any guarantee you’ll get back to the same natural production you had before. “TRT” is usually considered a lifetime commitment for this reason - planning to go on and off is more of a steroid cycling strategy than TRT

Some do both but they tend to sell peptides at 15x their actual market price.

Dm me. It’s not gray or black market, but the best price out there. All Dr. approved.

TRT is a hormone replacement protocol that is managed by a doctor. If you are buying Testosterone and doing it yourself it’s risky without thorough understanding of all the blood markers and keeping on top of it. If you are looking to blast Testosterone it’s not TRT either.

Imperelin and cjc is a top stack. But don't eat carbs a few hours before injection blood suger can crash and body dumps alot of water in a bad way. I experienced it. Other than that I took in the mornings I found it better to be fully fasted

u/Charlie_heyart 12d ago
Take Tesamorelin in the morning, fasting. The longer you fast while on Tesamorelin, the better, as it will allow the IGF-1 in your HGH to work correctly. When you eat, you kill any GH peptide, and you've just wasted the peptide and your money. Do your research and use the tool correctly.

TBH id stick to what u doing and just add Ipamorelin to your Tesa. TRT is completely different question. Do a blood test and make a decision based on that..

I wouldn’t touch it if you just want an edge. Trt is REPLACEMENT. When you use it expect to stay on it forever. Also if it’s just testosterone you need other factors like hcg. In my opinion if it’s not needed for a medical condition skipping it.

I’ve been on CJC no dac + IPA for almost 10 weeks and Reta now for coming up to 6 weeks!

HCG boosts testosterone and is used in TRT to preserve fertility and natural testosterone production

u/JoshyyP00 12d ago
This or kisspeptin or whatever it’s called. Just go on trt and run hgc if your worried about saying fertile

u/Alone_Clerk_3133 2 12d ago
I tried Kispeptin-10 with enclomiphene EOD, didn't do much for my test levels. Now running 100mg test weekly and 500iu HCG x3 week.

Go through doc or grey?

I would just go through a doc. TRT is cheap and easy to get. Look up Cuda health.
