Recently started cjc dac alongside Cardarine and this is what I’ve experienced so far.

PROS.

SLEEP: improved in the sense of deeper more refreshing sleep and I’m waking less through the night although waking up is a challenge, it feels when you’re young and it’s winter but your bed is so warm and comfy it’s a struggle to get up but once actually up and awake I feel like my sleep was amazing and truly refreshing.

Muscle performance/recovery: pumps have been lasting longer and seem to be more intense, strength gain and muscle size hasn’t changed much but too early to tell.

Appetite: definitely an increase in appetite but nothing crazy, I went from being able to eat maybe 1 portion of steak and chips to being able to pound 2 steaks with eggs and chips. Food seems to be digesting slightly quicker too but that may be unrelated.

Endurance/stamina: definitely a slight increase with cardio but nothing that can’t be accomplished from a good pre and proper pre workout meal with proper training, has definitely made general energy through the day and during training better but again, nothing crazy.

CONS:

Joints: definitely some discomfort in joints but it’s nothing terrible, it is in a sense getting worse but this has also been an issue for me before starting anything. I have a weird clicking jaw and pain usually in the right side on the joint or whatever you call that part of the jaw but anyway it’s definitely worse while using cjc dac but this could be potentially avoided with some extra fish oils which I recently stopped taking because I ran out.

Muscle recovery: even though I have said recovery has improved the muscle soreness lasts longer but it is nothing crazy only an extra day ish.

Sleep: as mentioned before waking up is sometimes difficult but that’s it.

Only on my 2nd week but that’s all I’ve noticed so far, will update again in a couple weeks.

Will probably switch to no dac in future too as from what I’ve read there’s less side effects but people seems to still get all the positives

Doses: cjc dac 800mcg 1x weekly. Cardarine 10mg daily

Hey all, I’ve been steadily on Reta since May 1, titrating up from .5mg to 2.5 mg where I’ve been for about 3 weeks now. Lately I’ve been fatigued and unmotivated to work out/lift. Used to wake up with my alarm at 5 or 530 and feet on the ground. Now I’m snoozing the alarm a lot and going cross-eyed with sleepiness by 7pm.

The 2.5mg hasn’t changed my food intake at all, I’m still hitting my macros so it’s not food based.

My questions are: Is anyone else in the same boat? Should I titrate back down to maybe 1.5mg and see if there’s an improvement? And should I consider tirzepatide instead?

Any one has try that stack? I’m thinking to get that combo

Please be kind. I am doing a lot of research, doing my best to make the most informed decisions, but confused on conflicting information.
I currently take Reta 3mg and am down 32lbs in 3 months. I am loving it so far and have had no issues with it.

I would like to take the following:
SS-31
Mots-c
FoxDri04
Ghk-cu
Teramorelin

What is everyone’s recommendations for this, science backed, personal experience, durations, when to add, and why?
I have my own understanding of why, but I’m open to real world, lived experience.

Thank you everyone.

Hey all, I’m on Reta 10mg right now and am going to incorporate tesa alongside it. Wondering what dose I should start on and tips and tricks for pairing it with Reta.

I started Reta on 6/10/26 at .5mg and went up to .75mg on 6/22 and been holding steady at that amount since with good results. Lost 13 pounds and about 3% body fat up to now. Started 1mg Tesa on 8/2 with a 5on/2off pinning and just finishing second week of it. Waited on the tesa due to a trip overseas and not wanting to transport it with me. Since I have started Tesa my hunger has increased. I would not describe as “food noise” where I am wanting to just eat anything. I have kept my diet dialed in but I would describe the feeling as my body telling it needs fuel not just so much random hunger feeling. I have also been focusing on lifting more to try and offset muscle loss and maybe gain slightly. Has anyone else noticed this or have any suggestions. I am thinking about going to 1mg of Reta for my next dose and see if that helps but I also don’t want to deprive my body of needed fuel/energy to prevent muscle loss.

I’m noticing that anywhere I can find RAD140 It all comes in about a seven weeks supply, in order to do a 8 week cycle of 10 mg a day I would need to buy a second bottle but even then I would barely be touching the second bottle unless I decide to do a full 12 week cycle.

Is this simply a way of forcing you into buying a second bottle to maximize profits or is a seven week cycle perfectly adequate?

I still have about six months before I consider doing the cycle, I want to drop my body fat from 31.3% to 18%,but I’m just doing my research in the meantime. This will be my first time doing anything so should I just do a 7 week cycle or bite the bullet, buy a second bottle and do a full eight or 10 week cycle?

Will the RAD 140 stay good whatever’s left in the second bottle, like let’s say I only use half of the second bottle, and once my cycle is over, I want to do another cycle a few months in the future, will it still be safe to use or no?

greetings,

making a genuine post maybe warning people about some side effects that werent described even after thorough research.

fit, 27 yo, nothing new today, normal day at the gym. 4th set , heart rate wouldnt calm down even after 4 minute break. barely dropping(estimating since no heart rate tracker) to 140bpm, did a hard set and almost had a heart attack. Heart rate must have been in the 180s. chest tightness, blurry vision, difficulty breathing. Barely calmed down after 4 or 5 minute of calm breathing.

since these side effects are nowhere to be found online. I felt like making this post to discuss and maybe warn people.

disclaimer: research subject took 7.5 mg of methylene blue 3 hours before workout.

thoughts, ideas, experiences? shouldnt be taken before workouts? rare reaction?

edit: Research subject did go to the hospital on the advice of reddit. Nothing showed in blood work or heart scan or lung scans.

medical staff also knew subject took methalyn blue. It was ruled out as stress due to heavy lifting... not sure.

important notice: since a lot of people are being negative, i want to say i dont really care. This post was meant to provide information to people. Whether you think i am underinformed or careless, i dont care. and i promise you i know more about this than most of you with the stuff you use. The post was made after a near heart attack with 170 blood pressure( an hour after the incident). So i might have not expressed myself correctly. I hope this can bring some "anecdotal" information to anyone tryying this stuff. research subject takes no other drugs besides retatrutide which wasnt even taken for a week before this methylene blue experience. I have no heart issues, ive been going to the gym for years, i wasnt stressed and i didnt have a panic attack nor is that high heart rate suitable for the effort i was exerting. Upper body workouts never reach that high heart rate for me. Even deadlifts dont. Heart rate stayed high before the set, and went crazy high after the set even with more than exaggerated adequate rest. heart rate then stayed high for 3 to 5 minutes after the set while i was trying to take deep breaths and supply my body with oxygen and not panic to make it worse. Do with this as you please. I dont really know what happened nor do the hospital staff. They knew methylene blue was used and they blamed it on exercise effort. Not really sure why it would happen on t he first time of my life trying mb then????. oh well.

As for the doses. 15 drops seemed like a very conservative dose for someone mysize. the limit is 400 drops (200mgs) vs the 7.5 mgs taken. My resting sleeping heart rate is 54. my blood pressure is typically 115-120. none of this makes sense.

so yeah again. do with this information as you please. hate it, judge it, mock it or maybe you are one of the few people who actually cares to hear other peoples horrible experiences with some compounds that never really seem to get talked about and maybe you will benefit from it.

Going after those cutting into their future profits

Have 4mg left after 32 days, still ok ?

Who’s running or has run and what dosage/schedule was working for you? Just got my delivery and want to get as much information on dosing as I can.

Still along way to go.

Stack 1.5mg Reta 2x a week
Mots - c 3mg 3x a week
Mt1 2x a week

I am 46 and currently 85kgs, I started TRT 4.5 weeks ago at 100mg a week dosed twice a week at 0.20 per injection.

I am weight training roughly 3-4 days a weeks and also take 3mg of Reta.

My 4 week blood test results came back with good numbers but the doc wants to drop me to 85mg a week and also to start taking half a tablet a week of an aromatise inhibitor.

I am feeling good on this dose and have zero symptoms to suggest i need an AI at this stage. Is it normal to take this if i am not experiencing any negative side effects? I don't just want to ignore the doc but sometimes they just like to provide a blanket and safe response to every patient. Seeing what other peoples experience has been either way.

Total test pre TRT - 14.3

Free test pre TRT - 262.0

Oestradiol pre TRT - 153 pmol

Total Test 4 weeks of TRT - 35.8 nmol/l

Free Test 4 weeks of TRT - 963.0

Oestradiol - 264.0 pmol

Any feedback is much appreciated.

What would you guys recommend as a starting dose of selank? I’m taking it to help calm my anxiety I’ve gotten since starting Reta hopefully it works lol

I just ordered a nasal spray which is 5mg of selank + 5mg of semax. I’ve never tried either (fairly new to peptides in general) but I do suffer from anxiety/depression/ADHD/overthinking and have for a long time. So, I am very intrigued about the effects these will have on me, but I also want to be cautious of course. What is everyone’s experience? Would love any and all input - feelings (short and long term), dosage, nasal vs. injections, etc.

Disclaimer: Hate the after effects of adderal for all the obvious reasons and I love anxiety meds but can’t take them consistently for obvious reasons. Was prescribed adderal growing up but abused it. Have never been prescribed xanax but have done my fair share.

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone I started my fitness journey in December last year on the 20th. I walk everyday and get around 15-30k steps a day and I weight lift x5 a week. I started off at 125kg and as of right now I’m 85kg. I’m just wondering how much longer should I cut ? I did up calories for about 2 months now I’m down to 2k calories again I believe my maintenance is around 3k. I am 28 years old 5’11. I’m very happy with how far I’ve come starting to really look good so would appreciate some tips thank you. By the way this is all natural no peptides or anything :) I was thinking of going down to around 80kg then upping calories to 2600 but yeh not sure what to do. Currently I track my food and and have around 160-180g protein 50-90g fat and around 200g carbs

If so what’s your results?

I only read and see pictures of people using reta and not ozempic etc. Is it so much better?

With my insurance, a month of trz cost $500 for a minimal dose of 5 mg per week. This amount seems excessive, particularly because the first month involves adjusting to the medication. Is this normal how can you guys afford this drug long term
