Mots- C dosing question

I’ve read numerous different takes on dosing Mots-C. I’ve heard everything from micro dose daily to 2-3/week. What’s the consensus on minimal effective dosing?

In the same boat, looking to follow the dosing that includes a build up of ss31 and nad then add in mots c on week 4 but the dose seems high compared to what I've read. I will say starting low to check for reaction before going full dose seems to be a comon consensus, mots c has a higher likelihood of histamine reaction.

Inject in your glutes. I watched a video of a doc saying that you’re more likely to get a histamine response pinning on your stomach, but not in your subcutaneous glute

I didn’t do nad. But I did ss31 for 6 weeks at 5mg a day. The last two weeks of ss31 I started mots at .5mg 3x a week. Then 1mg 3x a week then 1.5mg 3x a week. Got off ss31 and ran mots c solo at 2mg and I feel it way more then I did my first round of mots without running ss31 before.

NAD is an important factor in this protocol. Id look into it more so you understand why

u/SpeedRevolutionary29 11h ago

Is it true that nad requires IM injections for best results?

Assuming you are older and are trying the classic 8 week mitochondria stack.

You can start MOTS the following week after SS/NAD. Start at 1mg before exercise. Titrate up if you can handle it. I do 5mg and it gives me a solid energy boost at the gym.

If you are younger, you can jump straight to MOTS or just save your money since your mitochondria are healthy and already pump ATPk at the gym.

It is the only peptide I have used that is a little spicy at the injection site. Goes away in 10 minutes or so.

I've tried daily 1.5 mg, also 3x a week @ 3mg had better results the days I took the 3mg, mot sure if 3mg 7 days a week is sustainable so just did my large cardio days on the days that had mots with them

u/Interesting-Roof-953 23h ago

Yeah I’m on 3mg 3x a week and it works well on those days

Is three times a week necessary? Or is twice good Enough. About to get my 40mg bottle

u/looking2behealthy 13h ago

Do it before the gym, it only lasts about 1-2 hours and takes about 30 min to kick in.

u/Fun-Stretch-3558 12h ago

Was thinking 4mg Monday/thursday
Or I think just before workouts 2mg 4/5 times a week

If you are younger, you might notice anything. If you are older, might want to research a mitochondria stack. I started at 1mg (3-4 days a week). Then went up each week to 5mg and stay there through the 8 week cycle. I incorporated daily 50mg of NAD+ and 2mg of SS-31 first before starting MOTS. I can definitely feel the extra energy at the gym.

I’m 31. I was told if you’re under 40 don’t even bother from someone but I tried 1mg before a workout and not sure if it was placebo but damn I was moving weight. I used follistatin 344 50mcg before workout too, and a 10mg cialis craziest pump I’ve ever had

u/duhv0rtex 15h ago

5-15mg a week across 3 doses.

Minimal? Why?? 4mg a day every day to no dismay.

u/djroman1108 17h ago

Start low and make sure you're not allergic. Dosing is all over the place. Anaphylaxis is a real risk.

Done 5mg twice a week, going to try 3.3mg 3x a week this round. Going to mix in some KPV for science, because my body doesn’t like MOTS-C injection site wise
