About 1g per lb of lean body mass. As a newbie, pretty much any new stimulus to a muscle will work, but in the medium to long term, you have to take the muscle close to failure to provide it the level of stimulus needed to signal to your body to either preserve or grow it. I personally think a...

There have been a variety of people saying that that is explicitly their reason for using a CC on the forums over the time that I've been here. Also people that have opened paypal/alibaba disputes, etc. And vendors give chargebacks and disputes as explicit reasons as to why they don't accept them.

As someone who has been unfortunate enough to be hearing about crypto since you could get multiple bitcoin for a penny: Porn was not the primary use case for it. Just as it is with us, it was buying drugs. Silk Road was a big name, but drug buying sites on TOR predate crypto and they all...

Another +1 for acecosm. I grab my glutathione there, arrives quickly and in good condition. No real desire for the DIY botox that a lot of people use them for, though.

Doctors in America seem to really not know too much about it, somehow. My PCP didn't even realize it existed before I mentioned it to him the first time, said he'd read up on it. Next time I saw him he told me he was now presenting it as an option for patients where they're catching the...

Glad you were able to get on it and get a doctor willing to work with you. Sucks when they just ignore things that are important like the fact you're taking the same active ingredient in unknown quantities, purities, etc. as actual pharmaceuticals... I've actually swapped from rosuvastatin to...

There are thousands of factors that can impact your CO even if you are perfectly counting your CI. You're literally taking drugs that manipulate the CO. Again: This is governed by the laws of reality. Arguing against this is arguing against basic physics, and it's silly. Your body obeys the...

Yes

Sure - not saying they are. Just replying to the certain things getting triggered at certain peak concentrations - at that point, once the split dosing hits that trigger point, does split dosing become viable? Yeah. I'm definitely biased towards split dosing - just worked better for me on both...

Yeah, I've read the anecdotes. Personally, I've tried both when I was at lower dosages and seen no difference besides my RHR spiking more. Which raises the metabolism a bit, but... not much, and has other health concerns. (It spikes it too much now for me to even want to move from 5mg twice a...

Some peptides don't like it. Reta has a poor reaction, apparently.

Citation?

I do Wednesday and Saturday. Too lazy to perfectly do e3.5d or whatever I started at 2 and titrated a little faster than I did on tirz, but still mostly in the 3-4 week per range. The glucagon receptor activation is going to be a virgin response regardless of what dose you were on with tirz...

Because of how you were using handcuffs in private? Must have been some wild parties.

Yes. Human equivalent dosing compared to the rat studies is like 4mg/kg, but people swear it changed everything on the 250mcg doses. I'm pretty sure it's all placebo.

Most of the CN vendors here also offer HGH. Amount you need to do is highly variable. Most people will see replacement IGF-1 levels at 2-3IU and performance similar to secretagogues at 3-4IU. 4IU puts me significantly higher than the secretagogues did - about 150 more.

They certainly help with balance, but progressive overload resistance training is about the only form of exercise that gains muscle. Other stuff can do it with extremely high volume/repetitions over time (e.g. the muscles you build with physical labor) but vibration plates are not a method for...

SGLT2 inhibitors are interesting for a myriad of reasons, including looking to be quite cardio and renal protective even in non-diabetics, but the amount of weight loss they help with is pretty dependent on how carb heavy your diet is, and even on the high side, it's not anywhere near the realm...

Ultraprocessed foods are bad news for weight loss because they are extremely palatable and calorie dense. They also tend to have bad macros, so bad for your health for other reasons, but you can still lose weight with bad macros. But people fail to lose weight even when eating whole foods with...

Yup. Not really much for me to add here - well said. There's a huge variety of factors that make both halves of the equation very different for different people and someone can be doing the exact same thing as a skinny person and have basically no results. It sucks. And anyone that acts like...

Sure. I'm here too - on retatrutide as well. As I have noted multiple times, none of this is an indictment on her. I am not saying that the fact that CICO must work means there has been any sort of moral failing on anyone's part when they fail to lose weight when attempting to count calories...

I am explaining why it is physically impossible. You are making a fallacious argument from authority and insulting me. Can you explain how it is physically possible for something to come from nothing and you to be storing excess energy when you are in an energy deficit? Can you explain why you...

I'm not calling you a liar. I am saying you are misunderstanding what calories in, calories out means, or misunderstanding how physics works. I don't have to know your body because you are claiming that the laws of physics do not apply to you. If you are expending more calories than you are...

Except this article just says that calories out gets reduced for a variety of reasons. Which no one is debating. It doesn't mean that calories in, calories out is wrong. Because calories in calories out being wrong is physically impossible.

I don't mean to be rude and I don't want to discount your struggles, because it sounds like the CO is likely just not what it should be due to other issues, but it is impossible for CICO to not work. In a local frame of reference, energy is always conserved. This is one of the laws governing...

I think the fundamental problem is that while of course businesses in general can always change over time, in this space, those changes happen rapidly and often very decisively. The inertia from prior positive reviews would take time to overcome, or administration would have to step in and...

I spend about 5 hours lifting a week. Not exactly living in the gym. Tough to give an exact number on calories burned, but it's somewhere around 3k per week. 3+lb of extra energy expenditure a month.

Higher concentrations have been shown pretty conclusively to increase the risk of side effects in a variety of other injections, so it's a possibility here.

Lifting burns calories. Why wouldn't it?

You're injecting substances into your body. There are lots of substances you can inject into your body that could be fatal that would fit in the same volume as the peptides in the vials. Is there any reason any of them would be anywhere near the manufacturing process for peptides? Not for a lot...

SSA seems to overfill by 10% or so pretty regularly. Their last T40 test ended up at 44mg, their 36IU HGH kits tend to be around 40IU, etc. R60 kit I have is like 66mg.

If my testosterone levels are in the toilet my primary concern is getting them out of the toilet and figuring out the downstream effects from there. I'm glad the doctors I have gone through have not approached the problem the way you are suggesting, because TRT has been as life-altering in a...

Taking an AI would have done nothing positive for me before I was on TRT. My e2 levels were already in reference range. Why would I want to risk crashing my e2? Even outside of the huge impact to mood, why do I want to go to unhealthy levels of something that is neuro and cardio protective? Add...

I'm not an expert here but I don't see why you would need to use BAC water to reconstitute - you use non-sterile water on your skin all the time. If reconstitution is necessary probably depends on the media you're mixing it into and quantity involved - if it's already saturated you'll need to...

I started on testosterone while obese. Yes, some portion of my testosterone aromatized, but total testosterone was still a very useful metric that correlated directly with symptom relief. I don't understand why you think that some aromatization suddenly means one of the primary blood markers...

MesoRX and SteroidSourceTalk You're gonna need to get comfortable with crypto, though. Very few UGLs take any other form of payment and the ones that I have seen that do have significantly higher order minimums, and it's for moenygram/western union.

This forum is different from reddit - precisely because we don't have a culture if just spoon feeding information. I don't mean to be rude, but you're walking into a world of buying underground medications through drug dealers providing an opaque screen where it is unclear who is finishing...

The problem is that even with significant weight loss, most people don't see that significant of a bump in their total testosterone. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5407807/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41366-024-01591-7 - 40kg of weight loss will only get you a 24% boost in total...

I mean, rhabdo specifically requires damage muscle tissue being released into the bloodstream. Which is why this is more concerning than just "toxins get to the kidneys, kidneys filter it" - we're talking about a subq injection causing non-localized damage to muscle it wasn't injected into...

If you manage to infect the benzyl alcohol I'd be very impressed.

Marathons are one of the classic ways people get rhabdo, so very well could be. Crossfit is another.

Also a solid point. Rhabdo can cause your piss to turn brown, but it's not the only thing that can cause your piss to turn brown.

I'm also curious about it, but hesitant about adding yet more VEGF-promoting compounds. Risks increasing cancer growth rates/metastasization.

I'm not sure what particular risks making your own BAC from sterile water would carry that general reconstitution and injection wouldn't. Follow the same sterility procedures, get the dosing right, and you should be generally fine. What concerns did people have? I might be missing something, so...

I'd be going to the doctor and getting a full workup done. Killing muscle tissue would be scary in general even with an IM injection, a subq injection doing it would have me worried about all sorts of other shit.

Source on this? No one discussing that on Meso and I would imagine that if a subcutaneous injection is killing off muscle tissue then it's likely doing plenty more elsewhere in the body, too.

You can always just add your own BA to the sterile water, too.

I wouldn't either, and the latest data seems definitive, but it's not really a matter of betting against Jano - just understanding the limitations of GCMS. It provides a solid guess, but there's a reason he wanted information on what possibilities it could have been before he ran the tests.

Looks like it's not conclusive that it is that disinfectant, with SRY claiming it is CAS 99-93-4. GC-MS is not a definitive 100% for sure identification method. It does seem that SRY has been a pain in the ass for Jano to work with but I think the jury is still out on what the contaminant...

The TSA is not there to confiscate your drugs, be them peptides, weed, gear, or whatever. https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/medical-marijuana They would have to have strong reason to believe that whatever substance it is is illegal and also be willing to go...
