What you do while on these matters. If you use it to build habits around a healthier relationship with food, get down to a weight where you can exercise regularly, etc., you increase your chances at being able to go off of these and stay off of them. There's a lot of absurd numbers thrown out...

For lifting in particular if you want to make progress for anything beyond newb gains, you have to go pretty hard. Most of the growth stimulus occurs on the reps that are close to failure. Even as we get older we can still train hard without putting ourselves at undue injury risk. Proper form...

The De Minimis thing is pretty miserable if you do much international shopping in general. Even when the cost is negligible it slows the process down quite a bit - every item I've imported where I had to pay a tariff on it took 2-3x as long to get through customs.

If he's doing large enough orders from someone I'm sure he could request whatever filler he wanted.

There are plenty of things to talk about with Nexaph but I think the amber vials thing isn't particularly interesting - my compounded tirz came in amber vials too. If you filter anyway, you can put it in whatever vial you want.

I suspect TRT is going to make more impact for you than NAD+/SS-31/MOTS-C. Average total testosterone seems highly correlated to lots of environmental factors - there are lots of countries where the average total T is way higher than the US, and we know the average has been dropping over time...

Test C is pretty cheap even from domestic suppliers. Not QSC prices, but there are UGL with long testing history that are just as cheap for the quantity of Test C as it is from my pharmacy with insurance covering it.

Do you mean in the blood markers or the dexa? For the blood markers, most of those shouldn't be particularly impacted by TRT at all, outside of body composition change's impacts. IGF-1 definitely doesn't get up into the 350+ range from TRT, and many people see zero impact to it at all. For the...

~1.1k order 'in the cart' ended up being ~1.25k due to differences in conversion rates between what the vendor was pulling and what I was getting via exodus on eth on a purchase last week, plus a bit from fees, etc. Solana is also way up after the Trump/Melania coin stuff, $240 now.

Not all vendors take USDT or use sol even if they are, the conversion rate they're seeing isn't necessarily the same as the conversion rate that I'm getting on my end, etc.

I believe it is a joke.

I do find it funny we're banning red dye #3 which has basically zero reproducible scientific evidence of being problematic while still doing nothing about all the shit actually killing us.

I don't love that when buying with crypto the exchange rates, fees, etc. all add a decent amount more to the price than what you see. Spent a few thousand on AAS orders to stockpile since raws seem to be in short supply, particularly for primo, and all that added maybe 10% to the 'in the cart'...

HIIT is going to be great for your vo2 max and beneficial for lipids/atherosclerosis/etc. - all sorts of heart health stuff. But it isn't going to do much of anything for preserving muscle mass, and we also know through a fairly significant body of work, including doubly-labeled water studies...

I wouldn't call it heavy, but I'm lifting 5 days a week, 8 exercises a day, 4 sets on 1-2 major compounds each day, 3 sets on isolations, going to 1-2 RIR for the first sets, then for everything I can fail safely, to failure and then lengthened partials until I can't even do those on the last...

Somatotropin is HGH. AOD is a fragment of HGH that is supposed to just have the lipolytic effect without impacting IGF-1. If you take somatotropin at above replacement levels, you'll get additional lipolysis and increase your IGF-1, as well as potentially impacting your glucose, insulin, etc...

It is. My understanding is that SARMs are effectively just worse than multiple types of AAS both in effects and safety profiles, but that the legal climate makes researching AAS infeasible. Plus patents are long gone so less profitable. So silly to me that our system favors producing worse...

By this logic China wouldn't manufacture so many other things that are important to the US functioning so cheaply for us. China also needs a functioning US economy if they ever want to get paid back for all the money they've lent to America and American companies over the years.

Yeah. Worries about it all is why I now have stockpiled quite a lot of peptides and AAS to last me through the next bit if necessary. One thing that makes me think QSC might have a different source for at least some of it is that it sounds like they've been fairly consistently showing higher...

I can't really make up my mind on if I think it's really on the radar for the trade discussions. On one hand, the fentanyl issue has been a major sticking point for over a decade now, and we're just now finally seeing traction on it. On the other, it's obvious that if you take care of the...

I wouldn't hold my breathe, but I also wouldn't be surprised at all if they're back after CNY. If they were already planning on being shutdown for CNY, it wouldn't make a ton of sense to come back for a few days. But, being paranoid about my Global Entry, I'm glad I managed to get more than a...

Zero human research papers/clinical trials means a no go from me. I don't know that the dosing levels available at most places make sense, either. 250mcg pills, even when you account for rodent to human dosing not being 1:1, are just way low compared to what we've seen in animal studies. Some...

I mean, there's no reason they couldn't have women be the sales reps. I'm sure some of them actually are. Though I suspect most of the photos used are not of them. But plenty of them are dudes.

A buddy of mine sometimes has larger stuff sent to my place instead of his apartment because they charge him extra to receive packages over a certain size/weight. He uses his email address on a lot of stuff instead of his name. Seems to arrive fine. My understanding is that weird names can...

Anthrax has some really good albums, though.

Seems like a reasonable response, but yeah, can understand the frustration when it feels like getting a response is taking a while. I think with the nature of a lot of these companies being somewhat hazy in how they actually relate back to the original manufacturer of the raw product, there is...

Is it a good thing? Not at all. But I think adults should have total agency over their bodies and what goes into 'em. I find the principal important to the idea of individual autonomy, and that means allowing people to do things to themselves that most of us would decide to be an awful choice...

I fully believe Benoit is basically entirely due to the CTE. I also think that there's lots of science that AAS do impact you mentally and that people should be aware of it, if only so they can do some self-reflection when they have an outsized emotional response. I'm also a big believer in...

Gained roughly 5lb of LBM (specifically went in less hydrated than my first dexa on purpose so hopefully that's mostly muscle) and lost over 3.5lb of visceral fat based on the dexa. They have some margin of error. I was on reta and TRT during this period, so both of those would likely impact...

glp1forum ranks highly on the scoville top score list.

Very few posters on this forum match him in brevity and wit (well, the brevity thing might be true)

I'm OK with it. Imagine if you got hungry while strung out on omegafentanyl? You'd have a hell of a time getting to the door to get your uber eats.

As I've said before on this subject: Drug dealers deal drugs. This is axiomatically true. Everyone should assume any grey market peptide supplier is also selling things detrimental to human health.

Reta will work. HGH will work, but most people agree it takes fairly significant time using it to see results. It's expensive to do long term, as well. AOD - Skip it. All the real evidence points towards it being ineffective for humans. MOTS-C/NAD+ - might be worth trying. We don't have great...

It's been about 15 years since I last consumed everclear. Two of us went through about half a bottle. It was not a good day the next day. Or the one after. Not sure how neither of us ended up needing to go to the hospital for alcohol poisoning.

This is one of those claims that it just seems unlikely he has any sort of direct evidence of it. Who is testing these grey market peptides and finding that 'many' of them have LPS? Why have we seen none of the tests showing them? It's a strong claim that seems to have no publicly available...

Yun Express is extremely high volume - they process 700k packages daily, a huge chunk of that going to the USA. They're a large logistics company for a whole lot of Chinese e-commerce targeting global audiences. Stuff from aliexpress, temu, etc. is often shipped on Yun Express. They're just a...

What vendor are we paring with him for the slashfics

I spent a good 12 years admining and moderatoring forums back in the vBulletin era, including some with several thousand daily users. I think mods and admins shouldn't expect anything different in how they are challenged on false assertions, etc. If you're running (or moderating) the place for...

I'm sure you can ask ChatGPT to do some Tracy roleplaying

Tracy's skin seems thick enough that I doubt he gives a fuck.

Despite the media frenzy of the 90s suggesting otherwise, GHB is almost exclusively used as a recreational drug. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%93-Hydroxybutyric_acid#Usage_as_a_date-rape_drug

That's advanced vocabulary for someone young enough to still replace S's with Z's

I'm going to need you to remove the weeb avatar, you're giving the rest of us a bad name.

I don't work with customs, but I have done work with computer vision and scanning technologies at near the cutting edge. From my perspective, the technology is not there to make it cost effective to worry about that sort of thing, and there are too many things for any random individual doing...

Increasing their testosterone dosage to put them in the supraphysiological range, but not by a huge margin. Or adding a low dosage of an additional AAS. Some TRT clinics even prescribe var/deca/winny .

Pretty much this. I go through them faster than 60-90 days, but I'm also currently injecting reta, ss-31, mots-c, tb-500, and bpc-157

It isn't necessary. Until you get a vial contaminated with something that a filter would have caught and end up injecting it into yourself. It's probably more important for immune-compromised people but you are potentially injecting yourself with bacteria or mold when not filtering.

Yep. Or misinterpret them. It's not necessarily a bad first pass, but you need to make it cite it's sources and verify that they agree with what it is claiming to say.

GLP-1s don't break the laws of thermodynamics. If you eat at or below your energy expenditure levels, you will maintain or lose weight. No one is going to "eat basically nothing" and gain weight back, but people are horrendous at understanding how much food they actually consume. You might want...
