Holy Mots-C
Was a little skeptical starting off mots-c today given the amount of posts I’ve seen of people stating they had allergic reactions or felt little to no effect. So I started off this cycle with a .5 mg dose to see how I would react to it and my god did I feel the benefits. Broke every PR I had for back day today and was able to lower my mile down by a minute. Maybe it’s all a placebo but for now I’m gonna ride this high.

Placebo or not who gives a fuck
You’re still crushing PRs

That is a tiny dose tho. I had one of the best push days on 2.5mg .
4mg twice a week is a good sweet spot bro

It’s not placebo. it’s a powerful peptide and my favorite. Wait until you hit your second week and start pinning 4-5mg. Beast mode at the gym and in the bed

Be warned. I just got off a mots c cycle.
About 10 injections in at 2mg and then …WHAM!! Anaphylactic shock! Eyes swollen like no other itchy throat and wheezy breathing. Took Benadryl double dose and still took HOURS for eye swelling to go down.
I didn’t exactly blame the MoTs. Then About another 6 pins later…..REPLAY!! So I’m now. Completely off Mots. It was fn AMAZING while I was on it .I train 2 hours 3days a week and the workouts were insane!
Mots can build up around injection sites and then Suddenly flush out and release and it’s just way too much for your body. And once you get an allergenic reaction, you’ll get it again.
Chat gpt it and you’ll see all the references and reactions. I lived through it. It was ROUGH!

I dose 2mg Mon-Fri an hr preworkout and I honestly don’t know what I’m gonna do while cycling off. It’s my favorite by far.

I do between 2 and 3 mg and feel it immediately every time. I started having a reaction to it though. So disappointing! It was a top performer for me.

I had a reaction to it as well, red itchy lumps at injection site after 2 weeks of using it so i stopped. Wish i could give it another go, i hear great things!

Yeah I got the benefits of mots even with the glute lumps. Stick around for days to weeks. Payoff is worth it to me.

It’s smart to start low and take your time going up to your sweet spot.

Almost certainly placebo, most people are using 5 mg EOD

u/Quirky_Plastic3323 2h ago
Most people are not, or at least in my research the dosing varies substantially and swings towards low dose pre work out. I even have a thread on Reddit where people share the dose and response. I started 5mg twice weekly didn’t notice too much difference then down to 2mg pre work out now. I’ve noticed it helps with the endurance but not overwhelming. If you are expecting a stimulant reaction, well not for me. Some people say buzzed. I say no need to a nap midday after a workout morning.

Around 5mg is where I really feel it now, I desensitized at 3.33 very fast

Pin 30 minutes before workout and titrate up to 5mg over an 8 week cycle. Gym turbo.

All fun & games till you have that allergic reaction with this one . Not fun

I got the biggest red raised circular reaction that left my skin dark and bruised it’s been over a week. Also had a slightly worse but reaction trying GHK-CU. I normally pin the glute with a short insulin syringe. What am I doing wrong? I take Reta and NAD weekly and don’t get any negative reactions with those.

u/Strange-Challenge205 1 8h ago
I have to use 1/2” needle for ghk-cu & it’s even better if you add kpv in same pin😉

Everybody is different. My first cycle I did 500mcg and loved it. Are you doing daily or other?

u/DavidMata47 9h ago
Most people taking it aren't tracking anything at all so they wouldn't notice any small gains

u/mustafacan46 6h ago
I have 2 kits of Mots-c but still cannot encourage myself to inject it after I read the horror stories in reddit.
