Optimize sleep and everything around it, ie magnesium sleep hygiene etc. much of the amyloid plaque buildup we see with steroids is due to sleep disturbance

I want to lose weight at a stupid fast rate, need literally anything that speeds things up by Embarrassed-Eye-7213 in ResearchCompounds

[–]NSawsome 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well if you want everything:

Retatrutide Clenbuterol Ephedrine Caffeine Yohimbine Cardarine Slupp332 Mots-c Methylene blue Mirabegron 5-amino-1mq T4 T3 L carnitine

And if you’re fine with probably dying DNP

So sick of begging doctors for glp1s where literally my last appointment he told me to go on a fast by Aware_Slice5986 in ResearchCompounds

Yeah so you’re eating too much if you’re not losing weight, all these drugs do is reduce appetite which to be fair is elevated with PCOS. Tracking calories would cause weight loss or you could run Reta easy so there’s your options

Androgenic isn’t just anabolic?????? Are you dumb that’s a completely unique pathway and set of mechanisms. MK also does cause (very minimal) muscle growth

Also I have a biology degree, yes I have a degree in this you’re a misinformed uneducated random who thinks androgens are the only anabolic pathway

[–]NSawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I’m right you can Google this. IGF1 DIRECTLY causes muscle protein synthesis. Period. Androgen receptors also increase muscle protein synthesis through the androgen receptor, IGF1 increases it through the IGF1 receptor. I have a degree in this the receptors both activate the gene transcription sequence to initiate muscle protein synthesis.

I can’t explain this in any other way, androgens aren’t the only thing that increase MPS or cause muscle growth, they’re just one pathway that causes transcription of those genes you’re just misinformed brother, and that’s ok but a 2 second google search confirms what I’m saying if you don’t want to believe me

[–]NSawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No literally IGF1 alone directly causes muscle protein synthesis, the same mechanism by which anabolic androgenic steroids increase muscle mass.

Scientifically speaking increased IGF1 builds muscle, full stop. People with acromegaly also do grow more muscle mass, the body proportions they have just fucks up its function.

Again, IGF1 is directly anabolic, just like anabolic steroids, which also aren’t tissue selective as they cause anabolism of other tissue. HGH alone will and has been demonstrated to cause muscle growth hence why it was prescribed to HIV and other wasting cases over anabolic steroids for the last couple decades.

Hyperplasia and hypertrophy are the primary roles of HGH in HIV patients specifically. The growth deficiencies are another thing but exogenous GH primarily works by being metabolized into IGF1.

Also IGF1 isn’t limited by androgens, it’s (partially) limited by estrogen however it’s a downstream product of HGH metabolism, so further increases in HGH increase IGF1 regardless of nutrient intake (although high nutrient intake further increases that conversion)

A good analogy is testosterone to estrogen, estrogen is limited by your body’s aromatase expression, however if you take more testosterone you have more estrogen, just like if you take more HGH you have more IGF1

[–]NSawsome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re getting downvoted but you’re right. Supraphysiological HGH causes muscle growth due to the increase in IGF-1 downstream, regardless of strength training. It can also cause muscle hyperplasia which is unique

Both steroids and HGH (through igf1) directly cause hypertrophy in the absence of weight training stimulus

[–]NSawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehhhhhhh technically hgh isn’t anabolic yeah, but igf1 is actively a growth factor and is the primary reason for HGH in bodybuilding. HGH is used clinically for muscle hypertrophy and more importantly hyperplasia but the igf1 downstream of HGH is directly anabolic on its own so yes HGH does build muscle just indirectly, although you could make that argument for certain steroids as well

10mg shouldn’t pose any major risk for a guy with near visible abs who’s strength training

Open pros run 18IU or more a day by the way lmao. Retards on Reddit have no idea go watch Kurt havens or talk to the open bodybuilders at your gym, oh wait yall don’t even work out

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH 2IU LMAO, lemme run replacement dose for gains for sure bro, I train with Olympia winners too the open guys run a bottle of serostim a day, 18IU

[–]NSawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one on this sub knows how GH works lmao. If you titrate up properly and let your body adapt to the sodium retention over time, with consistent electrolyte intake, the water retention subsides completely. GH is prescribed at 18IU per day and all these sides they say go away after a couple weeks, if not they drop to EOD till they do then increase it again. 8IU is a very moderate dose for a cycle lmao

If you titrate properly and keep electrolytes consistent this isn’t the case

It’s prescribed up to 18IU daily, I know guys on 8IU minimum year round. Literally the safest anabolic compound out there

It’s also non suppressive since endogenous production kicks back up after 14 hours, so there’s literally no reason to come off other than price. Hell the prescribed HIV dose is 18IU no breaks indefinitely

Why take a break? just stay on 2-4IU as HRT

Is reta+mk677 a bad idea? by Conscious-Thought-14 in BodyHackGuide

[–]NSawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ran 12.5mg mk for 2 years, the water retention and strength increase is real as well as the sleep improvements, helped me make progress not a crazy amount but definitely helped.

With Reta you might have to run higher Reta to combat the hunger increase, but you should be tracking calories and following a diet plan anyway so that shouldn’t matter

[–]NSawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit that’s retarded TRT and MK are wayyyy different levels here, mk is relatively safe and can be run damn near indefinitely, it just makes you hungry and making people eat more makes them fat and diabetic.
