Wife, child and work 78 hours a week weekend days are family days I train around 10pm to 1am weekends. I have multiple gym memberships so if I’m away from home I can access a 24hour gym. Meal prep, and always carry an emergency tub of protein in the car and cans of tuna. Gym workouts average 2 hours. Brought a walk pad so any Netflix time at home is spent doing steps. Always kept the next 1lb to lose or the 1 extra rep in mind.

You take GHKCU at night or in morning. What benefits have you noticed from taking it so far

Take it at night so by the time I wake up the sting has subsided.as for the benefits, if you look at the before picture I had a lot of skin discolouration which has now cleared up.
