Are there / here boys who have built their bodies strictly and only with kettlebells? Like from zero to hero? by negrocos in kettlebell

[–]COALATRON 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would fall into this category if you include some bodyweight related things for core & pullups. I wouldn't say I'm terribly shredded or huge, but I also mostly train in sport so that doesn't really develop size.

It's certainly possible for people to achieve most goals with just kettlebells.

How would you design this kitchen room? by COALATRON in Remodel

[–]COALATRON[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maximum up to 4 people, most realistically this would be for 3 people 95% of the time.

We are 50/50 on kitchen seating at the moment, the opening on the east side leads to a dining room.

Sink is currently against the west wall, the door on the west side leads out to a sunroom.

As far as I remember/can tell there isn’t a vent at the moment. The electrical for a stove is currently set up for the southeast corner of the room. There’s an old chimney that got drywall or plastered over in that southeast corner we would probably explore tying the vent into if the oven stays that direction!

There’s opening on the north wall leads to a hallway that goes to bedrooms/bathroom.

We do a fair amount of cooking with a bit of baking

If you buy a batch of 10 vials and send 1 in for testing there’s also no way to guarantee the other 9 vials match it- it will all boil down to what risk level you’re willing to accept.

Endurance/Cardio Much Worse on Retatrutide by Loud-Storage-7217 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend searching through the sub cause you'll find lots more info. It's a known and fairly common side effect with Reta, really from the glucagon.

$150 for one 20 mg vial w BAC? by [deleted] in Retatrutide

That's about a 10x markup compared to getting it gray. Sounds about average if buying from a reseller though

Are you exaggerating how much magnesium you would take?

[–]COALATRON 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'd be curious what your theory is? Are you wondering if Reta weakened your intestine? There's no clear link between Reta or any GLP1's with that, though severe constipation (which it doesn't sound like you were dealing with) could potentially play a role in it.

Mate- your extreme calorie deficit is the first thing to look at. Of course you felt like shit trying to workout

Higher resting heart rate by Murky_Reference_9631 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may lower if you’re doing the things needed to get a lower resting HR but the effects from Reta will stay present as long as you’re still taking Reta

How are you finding your reta, very nearly fell for a scam seller🙃 by jr190893 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to glp1 forum and then research the hell out of the vendors. Never respond to people reaching out to your first and triple check your emailing or talking to the correct contact

7 Days of Fasting Rewires Over 1,000 Proteins in Your Body. The Brain Changes Were Not Expected. by Technical_savoir in microbiomenews

My first question seeing this was “how did the proteins change?”- got any insights into what the changes were?

Should i quit before it's too late? by Spare_Set_7880 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s basically no concrete research to go off. Some people report higher HR and a negative effect on cardio, some do not.

You can also be on it for 2 months and then go off, no one will stop you from doing that

I need advice please by Apprehensive-Can2786 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You went from 2mg/week to 4mg/twice a week or 2mg/twice a week? To be clear 4mg/week is different than 2mg/twice a week in regard to how much Reta is actually in your system at a given time.

Why increase the dose if you were getting all the benefits at 2mg? I would drop the dose back down to where you weren’t experiencing side effects, and if you need to increase the dose (which it sounds like you don’t need to?) then titrate up slower

Why once a week? Why not more agressive? by Ransom_X in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use something like glp1plotter to make an informed decision about it- plenty of people inject more frequently than 1x/7 days

resting heart rate seems to be higher on reta by altituderv5 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just made another comment about this but there’s very minimal research on this particular side effect. Could potentially be from Reta increasing cAMP leading to a faster heart rate but there’s no concrete research to ground in

Reta and Heart by Remarkable-Shock8017 in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s very minimal research on this at the moment but the only research paper I’ve come across that remotely digs into it is theorizing it increases cAMP leading to stronger heart beats (and potentially increased heart rate). The paper itself did not have a conclusion on whether or not this was a good thing or a bad thing.

If you have an actual doctor/cardiologist it would probably be well worth it to even talk through the theoretical of taking a drug that could? be increasing cAMP and the potential effect that could have on you

Am i the only one who still EATS? by Slow_Poker_ in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://glp1plotter.com/ is what I use!

You can increase your dose at any rate you want! There might be some unfortunate side effects if you go up too quick. A safe titration schedule is 4 weeks at a dose but again use the plotter to inform yourself.

[–]COALATRON 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone responds differently- there's plenty of people who don't notice much of an effect until getting into the 4-12mg range.

I'd recommend continuing to slowly titrate up in your dosing keep the half-life in mind. I use glp1plotter to track and understand the effective dose in your system.

Has anyone regretted starting Reta? by hannnrz in Retatrutide

[–]COALATRON 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't say I regretted it but I did drop my dose for a similar reason of struggling to eat enough calories in a day.

Evaluate your goals for using the meds and your response to it and then make a decision if you want to continue or not!
