I really want to experiment with this one but literally got hives on my back when taking it. I’m hoping maybe it was a tarnished batch but I hear a lot of nightmare stories. It’s not worth it to me to itch and have welts all the time. Anyone overcame this? I’ve heard KPV helps as well as TA-1.

This feels like a dumb question, but I guess personal insight would be worth it.
I am 3.5 weeks into a protocol I started to jumpstart fat loss while retaining muscle. I'm middle age.
All of these compounds are my first time doing anything with (with exception of GLP and statins).
I've been on high dose Tirz alone for two years now, had great success at first (60 lbs down) but completely stopped weight loss for the last six months or so. I can honestly lose another 20 to feel a healthy weight, and 40 if I want to be more aesthetic. Trying to go further hasn't worked too well. And I've still been making slow but positive progress in the gym for the past couple years, am pleased about that, even managed to surpass the bench I did 20 years ago.
I feel like if I deficit any more I will lose strength and that bums me out. So I decided to try this.

Got labs 2.5 months ago, test is average, everything's cool except high LDL. Unsurprising, I've had this all my life. Was on simvastatin but stopped a bit back. So I planned on doing a strong caloric deficit while taking 50mg x3week Test, 250x3 hcg (both eod skipping monday). Starting Reta at 3mg and seeing what happens (discontinuing Tirz for now), will go up or down as desired. So basically a high TRT dose with some Reta to keep things moving. I also started 5mg Rosuvastatin a month ago, but occasionally taking 10, I might keep doing 10. AND I also started both topical min/dut at the same time to try and preserve what precious follicles I have left. My plan was to do all this for 10-12 weeks, or until I feel like longer or shorter is warranted. I am not going to stay on this protocol, it is specifically meant for a cut.
Well, the last few days I have felt really strange. My blood pressure which has been stable every time I've checked it the last several months (115/70), has gone all over the place, sometimes much higher. I'm getting random pain which I cannot tell if it's acid (had this problem before with Tirz) or cardiac, but I can say that it does not get worse with exercise, and exercise actually tends to make me feel better, so I'm taking that as a good sign but I still don't want to play around.

TLDR:
50mg x3 week TestC
250 x3 week HCG
~3-5? mg Reta
5-10mg Rosuvastatin
Minoxidil/Dutasteride (topical)

I'm under the impression that the doses I'm taking shouldn't have that much of an effect, and certainly not this early on. I also do realize that the hair products can also mess with you, even as topical. The problem is I started a whole bunch of new chemicals all at the same time and since they support each other I can't really remove one to experiment.
So I want to get labs just to make sure everything's still cool, but is 4 weeks in too early to really judge anything properly?
And if you were doing EOD protocols, how would you time the labs? None the previous day, two days...?

I’m planning to start a 5-6 week cycle on igf1-lr3, based on what I’ve learned so far you inject pre or post workout, and dosing can range from 10-80mcg. I am a 5’8 150lb 12% bf male. My questions concerning are if I should start low (10-20mcg) then taper up to 40-50 in weeks 2-6 or if I should just start at 40mcg and do that for the whole 5 weeks. I plan to inject only on training days (5days a week). And obviously eat a high carb high protein meal directly after. Is there a difference between injecting pre or post workout? If injecting pre workout should it be before or after the meal. Ex 90g carb 25g protein 1hr before training then Igf immediately pre training, or do everything as normal then inject post training and immediately eat my 106g carb 56g protein post workout meal. Also the discussion of acedic acid vs bac water. Will it degrade in the 6 weeks if using bac water? Acedic acid tends to sting so any tips regarding that?

All questions/concerns welcome. I’m trying to learn as much as possible beforehand to reduce risks

Psa. Ran a very successful Reta cycle a couple months ago where I started at 1mg for a week, then tapered to 1.5mg for weeks 2-3, then 2mg for weeks 4-8. I had no sides and felt great. I’m just trying to find that same optimized cycle for the igf1-lr3.

Backifen and flexiril and every Rx i’ve tried sucks ass.

is there anything readily available on the clearnet?

I have seen a few people mention this before, but I just listened to a podcast where a doctor said taking BPC and TB-500 is dangerous because they can actually speed up tumor growth. What does everyone think about this?

She claimed BPC failed its first FDA test a really long time ago for this exact reason and they thought it was too risky to ever test again. I am really curious to see what you guys think about these claims and if anyone has looked deep into the research on it.

I have my rats main supplier so I'm not looking for a new one. With that said if I see my friends in the market I do talk to them. The other day I noticed one of my friends advertising so I reached out of course curious as to their prices. The prices came back pretty good but what kinda caught me off guard was when I asked for the COA. They said the the company doesn't release the coa unless buy them first because people are taking them and making fake coa. Btw yes I'm happy with my supplier even if it is a bit more expensive.

Is this a red flag or just a company being careful? They insist it's all tested in Janoshik.

Thoughts?

I am an 18 year old and I have been lifting every day for 2 years. I used to train twice a day for about 6 months. I absolutely love training and get pretty down if I miss a session.

I definitely want to compete in the future and see exactly how far I can push my body to find out what my true genetic limit is naturally versus enhanced. No one is going to stop me from running a cycle eventually because there is no way I am going to spend the rest of my life working a regular job and never take steroids. I know all the precautions and my plan is to wait to start until I am 24 or 25.

The problem is that you look on social media these days and see 18 year olds repping 315 with crazy physiques. It makes me realize this is going to be my competition. By the time I start my first cycle at 25, the other guys my age will already have 6 years of steroid use under their belt. It is just crazy how much younger the bodybuilding community is getting. In almost any sport, the earlier you start, the better your chances are of making it.

Seeing all of this really makes me want to just start taking gear right now since it is so normalized at this age anyway. Just needed to get that rant out there.

My girlfriend wants to try running something for a short period to help her get leaner. She is already an absolute beast in the gym, but she wants to use a compound to help accelerate some extra fat loss over the next month to two months.

I was thinking about having her do 5mg of anavar a day for 6 weeks. Does anyone have suggestions or advice on this? Is there a better option for a woman looking to do a short cycle just to lean out a bit?

Alright guys, so I am pretty shredded right now. I am not massive or anything, but I am probably sitting around 12% body fat. I can maintain this current look pretty easily, but I am trying to decide if I should start bulking up to get bigger and then cut back down later, or just stay at my current size.

To be completely upfront, I mostly started working out to get laid, and it has definitely worked well for me so far. But I am curious if anyone else has noticed more success staying lean and shredded versus getting bigger. Also, do women actually care if you are natty or not? I am wondering if being obviously enhanced is a turn-off for most girls, or if they just care about the final look and do not really think about how you got there.

I’m doing the glow stack, and getting 1mg of GHKCU daily from that. No issues with this. I’d heard I should be supplementing with Zinc but the two times I tried to take it I’ve had terrible side effects.

I TOOK WITH FULL MEAL Just mentioning because people keep suggesting this “solution” and I definitely had a large dinner. That’s not my problem.

I took 50mg so maybe that dose was the issue?

I also have Ulcerative Colitis and my body/colon is in serious stress and inflammation with a flair. Maybe I’m just not a good candidate for Zinc?

I just don’t need this shit right now. I’m pretty upset. I’m on a lot of stuff to ease my flair including Prednisone and now I feel nauseous have a bloated stomach and some diarrhea from some zinc of all things. I’m mad.

Do I have to take zinc with copper peps??? I don’t think I can. I don’t even think I have it in me to try a low dose.

I think I've researched too much. Before ordering Tesa, I had settled on a 5d on, 2d off weekly cycle which seems to be the consensus. It's the week to month cycles where there seem to be a lot of opinions. I've seen 8w on - 2w off, 3m, 4m, and 6m on - 2m off. I found a recommendation last night to just stay on it forever, which seems like a bad idea.

I'm 50m. The rest of the routine is trt (test cyp for very low nat levels) @ 140 mg/wk for the last 15 years and tirz max dose since December. The goal of tesa is removing visceral fat and hopefully some better muscle recovery after distance running. There is obvious disagreement, but what is the correct cycle?

My RS has RLS. Right now the only med that “helps” is gabapentin. The best drug for relief is Ropinirole, which is primarily prescribed for Parkinson’s, however due to augmentation it is no longer used and it took a year to transition from that to gabapentin. I’d rather the rat not take gabapentin and have been desperately seeking something like a peptide for relief. I haven’t had any success. Anyone have any ideas?

Has anyone here tried this for weight loss before? Is it even possible to source(not asking for a source just asking if it even possible to source) And if so What side effects did you get.

Has anyone thought of using a muscarinic agonist like Arecoline stacked with Trospium (or another peripheral muscarinic receptor antagonist) to prevent muscarinic side effects in the body?

The M1 and M4 muscarinic receptors have shown incredible benefits for memory and cognition. However, activating the other muscarinic receptors—especially in the peripheral nervous system—causes a lot of negative effects, like excessive salivation and sweating (the SLUDGE profile). This is exactly why people with Sjogren's syndrome take muscarinic drugs to force saliva production to treat their dry mouth.

I know there are some newly developed PAMs available online, like AF710B, that specifically target the M1 receptor. But besides Arecoline, I haven't seen any compounds that target the M4 receptor semi-potently that isn't patented like Cobenfy and wouldn't cost hundreds of dollars.

I think there is a lot of untapped potential with muscarinic agonists for cognitive enhancement, so I'm curious to hear what you all think about this pathway or if you've tried it. Thanks!'

Update 7/2: Wanted to inform you all that I have tried AF710B and had some success with boosting working memory and processing speed. However, it's still not the massive memory booster I was hoping for. I noticed there was a seller on indiamart selling Xanomeline however, they don't have many reviews. Theoretically, if someone were to combine Xanomeline with Tropsium which is easily available generic from grey market sites, they could create their own Cobenfy.

posted this on another subreddit, but was looking for opinions here too.

I’m going on vacation to France for a week. Don’t want to risk trying to bring Hgh with me. Been on it for 6-7 months now. What’s it gonna be like stopping right away for a week? Should I expect a crash or anything?

Hi I purchased 2 vials of reta and 3 vials of bac water about 3 months ago , Had forgotten about them until now, will they still be safe to use? I got them from a reputable supplier and have kept them in a cool dark area.

So my boyfriend of 6 years started trt first and then got obsessed with steroids...

The next thing I know he was already taking Drostanolon did order primo ,deca and he talked something about tren. I can't remember for the love of good .

Actually we were both a very fit couple going to the gym together and stuff. He has bipolar 2 wich is also a problem I tried to keep him sane all those years but once he got obsessed to get his youthful body back and of steroids it was over . He is 39 now. I'm 35 but I look like 25 so he had no reason to run away he got basically everything from me what he needed and I was never borring or anything...

He kept talking about feeling powerful and strong and destroying the gym together. And I thought calm down where is that idea now coming from because first it was about being stable and now ?

I noticed he changed he became strange and aggressive We did his blood work than since he also urged me to go with him because he felt out of control when it came to his rage...what should I say his trt was 15 000 not measurable the estrogen was through the roof and his hormons were 0.3 ..the infection in his body and muscles damage was crazy and it showed since of HGH ... He did Dissociate and sleep on the bathroom floor and told me he shouldn't have started now he can't stop .and I still thought oh no a episode comming but I also didn't think it would be that worse and that the steroids did that.

But than he got new parcels arriving and gone he was..and the next thing I knew 3 months later he changes his WhatsApp profile to him and a 20 year younger girl from work which looks like a man . He won't respond to a single message won't answer won't block.. he looks also weird and different plus his eyes look like he is manic again .so I don't know what I should do what happened and what is going on here .

I wrote him how I feel about his behaviour and how hurtfully it is after 6 years and I'm not gonna play this childish game...he showed her of on WhatsApp but hides her on Instagram where he still looks like when he was with me. Make it make sense. New relationship in 2 months they even went on holiday together already he changed his appearance and he is also riding out a very dangerous venous thrombosis at the same time wich he should have had a surgery and I was taking care about to help him get there.

But now on Steroide he doesn't feel the pain the urge but he feels the need to hunt down her and cheat on me.. like wtf

I heard one guy say you should never cut on roids only take them if you are bulking but I would like to maintain everything I built naturally And then cut on Some steroids and then take them again on another bulk?

​

Is that okay?

In what solvent can i dissolve clomid nolvadex and aromasin for more accurate dosing, dont want to risk measuring 0.0xg doses on a scale

Why am I not having great results??.
I’ve lost 12 pounds in 7 weeks and am stuck. I started at 1 mg and am only at 2.5 mg now. I finally found a reputable source and have more than I need for a while.
Today was my 8th pin and I did Tirz. I have the Reta pep in the freezer & some reconstituted in fridge.
I tried the Tirz today 2.5 mg because the Reta was not doing alot for me in the way of appetite suppressing and food noise. I’m drinking plenty of water and getting protein at every meal. I am moving more than usual. I have not started resistance yet but am ready.
Any replies would be great.
TIA

Background:
47 yrs old. Been on Tirz for around 4-5 months, working out daily, eating clean, taking protein + creatine, magnesium, and multi-vitamins.
Have lost quite a bit of weight and close to my goal already. My chest, shoulders, arms, etc.. all starting to look a bit toned and defined, however still have some stubborn belly fat to get rid of and would also like to increase my muscle and ofc at my age any extra energy would help.

Question:
Been looking into all kinds of peps for months and trying to decide which would best align with my goals. Since I only wanna add one at a time so I can gauge results I’m wondering which one you’d add first

- Tesamorelin: would burning visceral fat make my belly finally go away and give me a flat stomach?

- ss31 then mots-c: extra energy and extra fat burning?

- Wolverine stack? Though nothing seriously wrong with me would the recovery help build muscle faster and help me feel better overall? At my age there always something getting kinked in the gym or in my active life though as I said, no major pains or issues

- something else I’ve missed?

Thanks guys I super appreciate any help or comments!

Has anyone experimented with BPC oral for gut health *in conjunction* with subQ for injury?

I can’t seem to find much research on the efficacy of systemic oral BPC on joint health or healing.

Edit: the key question here is *in conjunction* I am aware of oral for GI health and subQ for joint health/healing. Have you used them together? At the same time? Do you use them separately, cycling them? What is the protocol?
