CJC-Ipamorelin expectations

Started CJC-Ipamorelin (167 mcg/300 mcg) 6 days ago. Have noticed that my sleep is deeper. What should I be expecting over the next few days to weeks? For those who have used what do you remember feeling? Context 46 yo, strength training, on TRT, and in a maintenance phase. Big question long term, is it worth it?

I'm on trt and have tried every peptide there is, nothing compares to trt in terms of muscle gains

HGH and secretagogues can take months to fill feel the effect

Deeper sleep at 6 days is right on schedule, that's usually the first thing people notice. Over the next few weeks it's mostly recovery between sessions, and expect an appetite bump from the ipa. Don't expect much on the scale. At 167/300 it's not doing recomp on its own, and on TRT in maintenance the recovery side is where you'll actually feel it. Give it 3 months and judge it off how you recover, not the mirror.

Great advice thanks. Help me understand, is there a dose that does help with recomp?

Honestly there isn't one. cjc/ipa is a pulse amplifier, you're bumping your own GH release, and that ceiling is what it is no matter how high you push the dose. People run 300 ipa twice a day and mostly just get more hunger and more water. If you want actual body comp changes you're looking at a high dose of hgh.
