I’m currently in a cutting phase; I take 7 IU of GH pre bed and also use reta,motsc,slu. For basal insulin, I use Toujeo. On training days, I eat 570g of carbs and pin 10 IU in the morning; on rest days, I have 370g of carbs and don’t take basal insulin on restdays. Given that Toujeo has a longer duration and a later peak compared to Lantus, do… Read more

Hi, up until now, for every injection I’ve done, I would first draw the oil from a vial, then from an ampoule. But now I’m starting to draw from two different vials, and I don’t know how to draw the oils from different vials into the same syringe without mixing them together. This also applies to peptides. Any help would be appreciated, thank you

Hi, I’m in the 8th week of my cut; I’m down 8kg
without any drop in training performance, very happy with the progress. I’m running 700 Test, 175 EQ, and 530 Mast. I’ll continue for another 8 to 10 weeks before transitioning into a 25–30 week off season. My training performance is good right now, but I’m thinking of adding Anavar if I notice a… Read more

I’m planning to finish my cutting phase with 700mg Test, 500mg Mast, and 170mg EQ and transitioning to the off season; I want to run just Test and EQ during off season, meaning I want to drop the Masteron. I’m wondering how I should adjust the dosages. I thought it might be a bad idea to suddenly cut out all the Masteron and replace it with… Read more

I’m around 10-15% bf. All great but i think my e2 could be higher. I know the test:eq ratio differs from person to person but i havent seen many people have these e2 levels at 4:1 ratio , I’m starting to wonder if the test I’m using is underdosed.

Hi everyone. I’ve entered the 8th week of my cutting phase and the 4th week of my cycle. I’m curious about your thoughts on whether or not to adjust the Test/EQ ratio or add Masteron. I’m currently running 700mg Test and 175mg EQ. With this ratio, my E2 is at 30 pg/mL on the bloodwork i recently done. I think that’s a bit low, but I… Read more

Hello everyone, I’m in a cutting phase. I have SS-31 (50mg per capsule) and 5-Amino-1MQ (50mg per capsule). Should I start with 1 capsule of each? I started taking MOTS-c before training and feels amazing, unreal. Would these act similarly to MOTS-c if I took them before training too ?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Peter,

I see people drop their step count during a refeed day. Should I actually be reducing mine from 15k and if I should reduce it, by how much roughly? Also, after the refeed day, what kind of scale weight change should I expect the next morning ?

The plan is to run 700 test and 175 eq per week. Right now, I’m only running 300 testosterone per week. I do daily injections, and so far I’ve never experienced any noticeable high E2 side effects.

around 50 ng/L with 4:1 ratio

Hello guys

I’m at the end of health phase and about to run test/eq at a 4:1 ratio. I chose this ratio because in my previous cycle it kept my e2 right where I wanted it. Right now I’m on 300 test, no AI, and E2 isn’t too low around 80ish so I wasn’t sure what to do.

I don’t want to crash my E2 should I add EQ as soon as I increase my test dose,…

My goal right now is fat loss. But I’d also like to know what you’d suggest for an off-season setting.

My goal right now is fat loss. But I’d also like to know what you’d suggest for an off-season setting.

I have oral SLU-PP-332, each capsule is 200mcg. How would you guys start dosing this and how would you split it up throughout the day? Just on wake, or also pre-workout?

Thanks

My workouts take a long time, so I’m wondering if it makes sense to split the intra-workout protein into 2 doses during the session.

I start training about 1.5 hours after my pre-workout meal. Would it make sense take the first half of my intra amino dose 30 minutes into the workout, and then the second half 2 hours after that first dose?

Thanks…

Hello crew , 3 weeks into my health phase now. Got bloodwork done and E2 came back at 73 ng/L highest E2 I’ve ever seen.

Never run an AI before. Should I start one…

Is it your total amount of protein including which comes from rice, oats etc. or is it just the protein from animal sources

Hey guys, been running GHK-CU at 2mg daily for the past 2 months for skin health. Thinking about stacking KPV and Glutathione on top of it.
Is it actually worth adding Glutathione and KPV for acne and scars ?

10 mg and keep it at that so you have leeway to up the dose in case you run into heart failure.

Would add Fenerenone and nebivolol to that stack.

What are the benefits of both of them ? What dose do you recommend ?

Yesterday at the end of the lower session my blood sugar dropped to 3.05 mmol/L despite taking 60g carbs during the workout. I was very tired and struggled to finish. Should I remove rapid insulin completely and cut my Lantus to 10 units on training days and 5 units on rest days ?

There’s lots of other things that are good for blood glucose and kidneys. Unless you have an actual kidney issue, or blood sugar issue, I would try to just monitor these and keep these markers down through normal supplementation, lifestyle practices and diet practices.

I transitioned from off-season into a cutting phase and dialed down my carbohydrate intake accordingly, which prompted me to recalibrate my exogenous insulin protocol. Currently running the following:

Training Days: 640g total carbohydrates, 16 IU Lantus

Pre-workout: 6 IU rapid-acting (120g carbs)

Post-workout: 7 IU rapid-acting (140g carbs)…

Thinking of keeping L-Carn to just quad/glute, alternating every 4 days at 2.5mL. Adding 2 fresh sites to my gear rotation so nothing overlaps. Not bumping the L-Carn dose to 1g. Also gonna look into getting a different (higher conc) L-Carn. Thoughts?

Hi everyone,

I recently started using injectable L-Carnitine before fasted cardio. I do fasted cardio every day, so I’m currently planning to use it everyday.

I started with 500 mg before fasted cardio, but the concentration of my L-Carnitine is 1 g / 5 mL, so 500 mg = 2.5 mL.

I also pin my gear daily in the morning. Right now, I’m rotating between…

Thanks Peter. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but with EQ would you base the dose on avoiding an E2 crash, or would you just directly run a 2:1 test to EQ ratio ?

Do you mean 2 readings total, one on the right and one on the left, or 2 readings on each arm?

Seems way to high for me, I dont know much about this guy apart from he is a huge potassium fan but I am yet to notice much of any difference personally when I have driven my potassium intake up to see[/quote]

Thyroid labs came back:

TSH 2.0 mIU/L

FT3 2.6 ng/L

FT4 1.0 ng/dL

In an enhanced bodybuilding context, would you guys add T3/T4 here, or leave it alone? If you would add something, what would add ?

Thanks in advance.

Assuming I’m deep into the off-season and not extremely lean, would a 12.7 mm needle be enough to reach proper IM depth in the quad, or would 32 mm be the more reliable option?

I know it depends on body fat, site, and how much tissue is over the muscle, but I’m curious what you guys generally prefer for quads in an off-season condition.

I currently only check my BP once per day, first thing in the morning after waking up. Would you guys recommend adding another reading later in the day as well ?

Or is morning fasted/resting BP enough as long as I’m consistent with the timing?

For those of you who’ve run EQ during a diet/cutting phase, how did you find it in terms of look, and overall performance? How would you compare it to DHTs in a cutting phase?
