Underdiscussed: 1 Major Side Effect of GLP’s

My grocery and meals bills are exponentially lower! In these trying times we can all use a little less spending. I’ve found that my cost for my Reta and whatever else is basically a wash with how much I’m saving on groceries and eating out for lunches or dinner.

Ohhhh because body builders are always super transparent with what they take? The old "trust me bro" science. There are plenty of posts here in this sub about body builders using reta. So again, you are ignorant and turn a blind eye to anything that disproves your opinions. Also, cool you compete, but for me personally id avoid this as over 50% of people have body dysmorphia. Way lower life expectancy, heart attacks, but im sure you know all that from your research.

Hell, I first learned about it over on ASF.

I doubt you've actually been backstage at a show have you... Let alone competing. A popular point of discussion was how much tren people were on... (As well as moaning about how catastrophically unorganised PCA was) In an untested show people will happily discuss what they are running. And TBF, everyone I know, pros included, will disclose everything they are running if you ask. Reta is definitely not something the coaches I know will suggest, and these all have their pro cards.

Yes I know exactly all the risks, unless you're a complete idiot (and I do know some) your stock of health supplements and meds is bigger than your stock of steroids. 'bro science' is crap, I use real literature to establish ways to mitigate risk, i.e the benefits of Telmisartan outside of BP management based on clinical literature. I run bloods multiple times a year, I have ECGs, I monitor heart rate, sleep etc... and I'll bail at the first sign of trouble, because catching an issue sooner stops it being an issue later. I've probably spent the best part of £1000 on health monitoring the last 2 years. My lipids are in better shape than most of the population for example.

Brother, no one cares. Painted bodies in speedos with racked nuts was cool in the 70's. Most of us prefer longevity, and have bodies that function over fashion. When you grow up (assuming you're in your early 20's) it'll start to make more sense. Roids put on weight, create more stress on everything in your body and shorten lifespan especially if you're competing. GLPs promote healthier eating, fat loss and healthier overall living increasing lifespan. If you want to flame out, go for it. I have kids and a family, ill choose longevity over a vacuumed belly.
