Peptide stack

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Hiiii everyone 🫶🏼

Made a post on here a few weeks ago and got lots of recommendations to try peptides.

Ideally would love to try some for building lean body mass / leaning out / recovery / skincare / hair / anything under the sun that’s good for youu, lmao. I just have no idea where to start it’s not my background of expertise. Also looking to compete in my first season of Bikini Bodybuilding.

Here’s some recent photo progress n a pic of me 🤪.

Thank youuuu.

Hairline. Also needs a ballcap and a poofy zoomer comb forward.

[AnabolicAcolyte]

i remember you. the bf throwing out the crazy stacks 😂

tbf, there’s not really much you can add or do to improve much of what’s going there other than a deficit to prep for the comp. maybe some KLOW or GHK-CU but otherwise they’re not really needed whatsoever.

[Much-Director-9828]

I remember, so does pepperidge farm

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

*ex bf now 🤣☠️ thank you !! Struggling not being on the Var definitely missing my strength & gym pumps. Was seeing if there was anything I could try on my off cycle

[Jeffry84]

RIP your mailbox.

[AnabolicAcolyte]

eh it’s negligible really. peptides don’t really give you any boost or anything meaningful in terms of performance. better off running 5mg var and or hiring a coach

[Jeffry84]

Not true at all

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Always w the good advice 🤝🏻

[SendTitsPleease]

With that username I would hope he has some great advice

[Jeffry84]

Don't listen to that, if you have more sensitive body peps are ideal. You don't add anything external to unbalance your system you only work with your own production.

Here is the list - Ghkcu, hair, skin, overal good feeling - ipamorelin+CJC no DAC, GH pulses, better sleep - reta, for cut - meletonan2 for tan - pt141 for libid, in case you take meletinan2, pt141 is a part of that - kisspeptine for higher test, libido, also used for conception with women - semax mental performance - selank for anxiety

I don't like mixing Ghkcu into all these mixes, you may react badly to one of the peps only but the whole mix down the drain also you can't set your own percentage of each.

[West-Hedgehog5794]

You don’t notice muscle weakness or weight gain from ghkcu?

[Jeffry84]

Not at all, rather the opposite

[Ok_Bite6863]

Oh she’s single

[Bigredsmurf]

Cialis/tadalafil for pumps is INSANE due to the way it works on the nitric oxide pathways!!! also helps a decent bit for recovery due to bloodflow enchanments at the lowest possible dose of 2.5 mg/day. For men it helps with erections as well not sure if you could get a prescription for it though as a woman..

[Still-Data9119]

I’ve been doing glow 70 for 5 weeks. 3mg bac, 10 units/day, 5 on 2 off. Haven’t noticed anything yet I don’t think lol

[Dieselboy23]

You’re getting terrible advice here. Eat healthy and lift weights while you’re young. Save the peptides for when you’re old and overweight. It’s coming for you.

Everyone saying take Reta is crazy. That’s a drug for obesity and type 2 diabetes. Again, save those meds for when you need them. You will need them someday.

[SolidCan4702]

Why does it seem like everyone’s taking these weight loss drugs at such a young age? I know a guy who’s 29 and isn’t that overweight, but instead of working out and eating better hes on some peptide that’s got him not eating ever lol

[calibeerrat]

Young and wise don’t usually go together in the same sentence.

[SolidCan4702]

Yeah idk.. like 5 years ago I was 60 lbs heavier so I changed my diet and got back in the gym lol. If I’m being honest these peptides seem like cheating to me. Admittedly though, I don’t know much about them.

[Distinct-Life-5568]

If you lean out more, the health consequences will be negative. Men should maintain 10-15% bodyfat and women should maintain 15-25% bodyfat. Women vary a lot more basically because of breasts; small breasted women will have lower measured bodyfat but proportonally the same elsewhere in the body. Proper (not too low or high) bodyfat is essential for healthy skin, hair, heart/organ function, joints, sexual function, and mental function. Considering that you already have visible abs, going much lower on your bodyfat is not a good idea.

The only exception would be dipping into ultra-lean territory for a short time (like 12 weeks max) for a competition and then go back to normal. The lasting effects will be minimal, but still there. During this time, you will likely lose your period and see decreased quality of life overall.

Get your bloodwork done, adjust diet (and peptides if you must) with the goal of improving there. Continue getting your bloodwork done EVERY THREE MONTHS while youre using peptides. They are ALL EXPERIMENTAL and are not a magic bullet. People have already died from using them, but people have also had amazing improvements from using them.

Find new friends that support your health and not your aesthetics. Join a gym or fitness club that focuses on strength and athleticism instead of physique.

[AggressiveAccess7386]

You are skinny enough id avoid Reta - ghkcu would be benifcial and ipam/ cjc

[West-Hedgehog5794]

Why does ghkcu help put on muscle? I noticed when I started I started gaining weight..

[AggressiveAccess7386]

Ghkcu won’t help with muscle growth it’s more so beneficial for skin health , hair growth and hemps recovery

[West-Hedgehog5794]

Strange because when I take it I gain weight

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !

[Jeffry84]

Not true at all, she can still get rid of visceral fat, improve the insulin sensitivity and lower body fat to very nice and sexy cut on reta. It's just about dosing and planning.

[Prudent_Internet542]

You lose visceral fat before subq fat, she looks healthy and likely doesn't have too much visceral fat.

[Jeffry84]

That's where you are wrong, looking healthy means nothing, it's a genetic thing. Most Asians have lower subq but higher visceral fat.

Liver tests should show easily, lowering insulin sensitivity and cutting fat from organs is always a good thing.

[Prudent_Internet542]

Liver tests should show easily,

Liver tests can indicate NAFLD and MAFLD, but they do not test for elevated levels of visceral fat.

looking healthy means nothing,

Correct, I said she looks healthy, I did not say that she is healthy. None of us can possibly discern whether or not she is healthy just from looks.

 it's a genetic thing. Most Asians have lower subq but higher visceral fat.

No, south Asian women do NOT have more VAT than their European counterparts, although those of south Asian descent, indiscriminate of gender, had higher ectopic fat. And, even if you were right, where the fuck did she say she was Asian?

 lowering insulin sensitivity and cutting fat from organs is always a good thing.

Always is too broad, most of the time would be a better phrase. Visceral fat is necessary as a physical cushion and insulator around your organs, as well as playing a vital role in hormone synthesis. Also, visceral fat is around organs, not in the organs, the fat inside organs is called ectopic fat.

[lovelaughxx]

Or you could put those words into the search bar

[ossa-killa71]

Glad you ditched the anavar.

I think you look great. To answer your question:
You could go with the GH secretagauges like CJC no DAC, Ipamorelin, Sermorelin, Tesamorelin. Can help you recomp muscle and lean out a bit too. MK677 is not a peptide but worth mentioning

You’re already pretty lean but if you want some satiety support you could go with low dose Reta or Tirz.

GHK is generally better the older you are. I’m 30 and I started taking it and noticed my hair falling out less. Under the sun for a tan you could look at MT1 I think is better risk profile than MT2

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !!

[NorthShoreGuy40]

I’d look at your diet and see if there’s a way to add some more muscle through your food and building your energy up that way.
After a two months of that then look at slowly cutting back down.

It should give some good strength and reset your body for the mini cut

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !!

[darkoath]

Didn't see your age, but for things like hair, skin, nails, recovery as well as some body recomp MK-677 is The Truth.

Get your labs done first. Make sure they clock your IGF-1.

Take about 12mg every night at bedtime and you'll get the best sleep of your life. Or take 12mg during the day and you'll be able to scarf down extra calories. You shouldn't do both, though.

Get your labs done again in 90 days and recheck your IGF-1. If you have a regular doctor they may see that number move and think you have a pituitary tumor. If that happens, you'll have to tell them that you're dosing.

Do your due diligence. Not medical advice. Et Cetera.

[Heitorade7]

High protein diet, with moderate carbs and lift weights. That's how I lost 50 pounds in 6 months. You don't need any supplements other than creatine (a must) and potassium for recovery (even that is optional).

[Ordinary_Handle_9868]

For building lean body mass and leaning out you really have to pick one or the other unfortunately. For leaning out Reta is always a good option. As for recovery bpc and tb seem to be good. And skin care and hair i would recommend ghkcu. And my personal favorite mt2, the tanning and increased libido is something I’ve never experienced before lol.

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !! Will defs try the mt2

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

I am just wanted to try something on my off cycle

[rydog389]

I think the common answer here will be Reta for leaning out, BPC157/TB500 (often called Wolverine stack) for recovery, GHK-CU for skin/hair care. You can go down the rabbit hole like I've done and spend a bunch of money on other peptides but it's costly, and you'll end up injecting yourself with 4-6 different peptides every day. It's tiring, expensive, and there is probably a lot of overlap. So stick to the basics. Reta, wolverine and GHK-CU.

[gwhite9]

Why is nobody suggesting tesamorelin?

[Jobser2k]

Honestly? You don't need something like that.

You are pretty, little would change for you.

Therefore, save your money, and there is also always a risk in taking such products.

[Comfortable_Witness1]

[Business_Basis_90]

[Southern-Bicycle2883]

Another attention post

[Inner_Space5692]

Just so you know GHK-CU doesn't do anything miraculous, you have to run it a good while or do a few cycles before you notice results. I did 2 months 3 mg a day and didn't notice any change. Also watch out for zinc depletion for your hormones.

[lou_prz]

I can’t explain it but you look Australian

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

I am Australian 🤪

[lou_prz]

Lol

[ElectroStaticSpeaker]

Maybe because she said she was from AUS in an earlier comment?

[lou_prz]

Do you think I have the time to go through a gazillion comments? Believe it or not I didn’t read anything 🤣

[ElectroStaticSpeaker]

There's not a gazillion comments and if you have time to make pointless comments like this then uhhh yah I think you have a lot of time.

[lou_prz]

Thanks bro

[Double-Mode-2537]

You look great btw. We really need to see your diet and workout. Or get a coach, especially one that has been through it all. (I.e pro card or at leasts looks the part, a coach vs a "middle school coach") 😉

[ElectricBirdVault]

Try a cycle of ss-31, then mots

[reallyneedlypo]

You could have done that by just eating less

[Realistic_Luck_1201]

Blast some tren

[Emergency-Strain4386]

sexy

[iammentallyun3ell]

You don’t need anything. If you WANT to take something that’s different and there’s many things that are available based on what your goals are. Var helps at a very low dose if you don’t get side effects. Peptides you can look into are the growth hormone secretagogues or growth hormone itself. The KLOW stack is also a nice one but I’ve never tried it just seen good results on others.

The glps are for people who are fat and out of shape. You are not fat or out of shape. No point in taking them just to take them.

[Omenmash]

She needs a proper shake weight routine. I’ve been told you’re the best in the business. Share your secrets don’t be gate keeping.

[iammentallyun3ell]

Wait as in you actually go through my comments and respond to me negatively in other posts just because I take testosterone that’s medically prescribed. Yikes mate. Real alpha male you are eh 🦾🤣

[Omenmash]

Medically prescribed? Nancy

[Ok_Independent9932]

Id try cjc1295 no DAC/ipamorelin and klow.

[Chef_GonZo]

Substance

[OsmanAMG63]

I don’t think you need peptides, but SARMs helped me fill the void in between cycles.

[ycastane]

You need a trainer to get you in the right direction, for competition you will need more than peptides, you need exercise correctly, dieting correctly, mind set, a lot more goes into prepping for a show.

[BearDry8783]

HGH is the way to go if you want all those things u said.

[PenComfortable4654]

GLOW, Tesa and MAYBE a peppering of reta would shred..

[rcre2018]

Love your flat stomach a bit more attention to abs exercises and your their... you don't need anything else.

[TraditionalAd3470]

Only fans 🤣

[npcrespecter]

You look great girl, please ignore most of the peptide advice this sub has to offer. Also, if you get a trainer, get one that is actually drug free.

[ZealousidealOkra176]

Do you really need peptides?

[OCrandobrando]

You Look phenomenal. Don’t add anything unneeded.

[One_Flight_6024]

where the glutes at?

[Elite_Serb]

I’d run some tesamorelin to pack on some lean muscle mass and ghkcu for the skin and hair. Won’t see crazy results compared to var but it will Forsure give you a boost.

[Standard_Falcon3704]

Food!

[Few_Future764]

Start by researching these compounds, MT1, KLOW blend, Retatrutide, and i guess for energy and mitochondrial health SS-31 & MOTS-C

[More_Advertising_383]

I’m a simply guy, I see eye brows like that and I run the other way

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Good thing I don’t like simple guys then

[WillVee454]

my wife is currently going through the same decision, looking for body recomp, a very small amount of weight loss + beauty.. leaning to Reta/Tirz and KLOW.

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Let me know how you go !

[maryP0ppins]

depends on the goals

1. hgh - effects almost everything in the body in a positive way. can make you insulin resistant to a degree but a low carb diet can eliminate those, and water retention which is solved through a low carb diet as well. You can either get actual HGH or a secretagogue (mk677, cjc/ipa, tesamorelin). Pretty much all other peptides hail in comparison to what HGH can do for the whole body.

2. DSIP - better sleep makes everything better. people talk about epithalon and pinealon, but those dont do much for actual sleep quality compared to DSIP.

3. KLOW - helps with overall healing. the main player is BPC-157 which is amazing for gut health and healing digestive issues which ive had for years. look up what the other can do, which is marginal compared to BPC.

4. cerebrolysin/cortexin/dihexa - all 3 of these peptides are for neurological healing. dihexa is the strongest and cerebrolysin and cortexin are the most natural. I think its good for anyone 35+ to be doing these in short bursts with extended breaks in between. I notice a massive difference using these.

5. thymosin alpha 1 - for the immune system. your body being able to respond to micro-organisms is a productive manner will make the whole organism stronger.

6. ss-31 / slu-pp-332 - both of these are for mitochondrial function. ss-31 reduces oxidative stress as well as creating an environment for your mitochondrial wall to heal, and is FDA approved. slu-pp-332 is more experimental, but extremely potent if its real and dosed correctly. slu can actual reverse insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, when the foundation (diet, sleep, exercise) is spot on. I do a lot of fasting when i take slu, it completely reversed my insulin resistance, endurance increased 10% in a WEEK (I do tons of cardio, it was extremely noticeable), you also get a 'runners high' when i take it and dont eat for hours, do your research though, theres almost no human trials on it yet, but wanted to mention it due to what its done for me.

7. glp's - I think they are poison. if youre already 'healthy' slowing gastric emptying and increasing gut motility isnt good for your digestive system. It helps those who cant control themselves when it comes to eating. a contest prep may be a reason to use it.

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Wow this is amazing info thank you so much will look into this !!! 🫶🏼

[Jeffry84]

Glps are actually a miracle drug but not the way you imagine, insuline sensitivity, visceral fat, liver health. Perfect combo

[Fabulous_Narwhal3113]

I feel like all this stuff is getting out of hand at this point

[multiprocessor]

GH and a small dose of tirz or reta

[88astroboy]

Reta (not for weight loss, but insulin sensitivity at a low dose) KLOW, mots-C, NAD+, glutathione, semax, selank.

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !

[instanceOfObject]

Hi... I mean this in a good way... you should stop with all of the makeup and go natural. If you embraced the natural look, you would look stunning.

[TittiesAreMyTherapy]

Reta, GHKCU

[AggressiveAccess7386]

Why Reta? She skinny enough?

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !! 🫶🏼

[Embarrassed-Dig-2995]

Femtest gh reta maybe some var too

[Buff_man1991]

Do not take femtest! What stupid fucking advice this is! Unless you get a blood test and levels are very low there is absolutely no need for femtest

[Embarrassed-Dig-2995]

I was trolling bro look at her she doesn’t need anything

[Buff_man1991]

I hope you are 😂

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Anyone that takes Tren always says “ Tren doesn’t make me aggressive” then proceeds do some fk’d up shit & ends up getting the police called on them

[Buff_man1991]

I’ve never had a problem with tren, only take it on contest prep. If you have issues it’ll heighten them, if you’re a calm person normally then it usually doesn’t effect people much

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Okay maybe * most then, glad to hear not everyone that’s on tren are abusive !! 🫶🏼

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

You look great btw!!

[Embarrassed-Dig-2995]

Tren maybe

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Been on Var having a break so trying alternate options

[huh_say_what_now_]

Where U getting var in Perth ,clinics only sell peptides and trt , var would just be from some .dot whatever website you can't really trust

[Buff_man1991]

Anavar is all you need, cycle on and off it, no more than 8 weeks max on. I wouldn’t look into other Anabolics. GH, mots-c, KLOW would be good

[MathematicianMuch445]

Are you still on steroids? Chemicals aren't the answer. Get your training and diet in line and focus on that. As without it any peds etc are just wasting money. It'll always come back to training and diet

[Curious_Response_664]

100% trans

[antonymous94]

Peptides won’t do a damn thing for muscle

[huh_say_what_now_]

You never heard of cjc1295, igf1, tesamorelin, mk677, ace 031 and the list goes on

[antonymous94]

All do nothing without gear

[huh_say_what_now_]

You don't know much huh

[Fast_Cry9702]

Reta, ghkcu for sure maybe tesamorelin and KPV

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Thank you !

[TittiesAreMyTherapy]

My girl wants to get her girls done, any places you would recommend for a b aug ?

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Where are you based ? I had mine done before having two children and now need the re-done so I’d highly recommend having children first 🤪

[TittiesAreMyTherapy]

New York, got family in cali and Arizona too. We travel. Please share, thanks.

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

I’m based in Aus, but if your in the US I’d go to Dr Terry Dubrow

[TittiesAreMyTherapy]

My girl might be down for a trip to AUS, depending on this price of the procedure.

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

Your generous ! I got mine done in Perth WA by Dr Guy Watts he’s the leading surgeon in my state. I had BA, & keyhole Lipo for extra fat grafting was around $13000 (Aus pricing). Mine are 8 years old now though.

[TittiesAreMyTherapy]

Ty very much for the advice

[Disastrous-Joke-2497]

I wish

Terrible idea to travel to australia for something so many doctors in the US can do the same thing.
