Is it really SLU-PP-332?

[Tbagger]

So I took a cycle of oral SLU-PP-332 @ 500mcg 2x a day and didn't feel/notice anything. Now I'm seeing the injectables popping up on more and more vendors lists. But my understanding is that the molecule is hydrophobic and can't be dissolved in standard reconstitution solutions like bac. So I'm curious if anyone has seen any legit COA's for any of the lyophilized SLU vials being sold? I have a feeling they aren't actually SLU but would be really excited to try them if it was.

How long did you cycle the SLU?

I noticed that I was really feeling 500mcg (morning right before gym) for the first 3 or so weeks, but during the second month there was less "feel", but the scale was still moving a bit so metabolism was probably still ramped some.

As for injectable SLU, I thought I saw someone was experimenting using DSMO in BAC water but I'd like to see more research on that before going that route as oral worked fine for me for a month.

Have you done SS-31 -> MOTS-C yet? I only ask because it's possible you didn't feel a lot as cellular respiration increases were muted by some other mitochondrial dysfunction that might need to be addressed first. I know that 14 week SS-31/MOTS/NAD+ guide is floating around...I would consider that with SLU on the tail end of it; seems like it would be best way to maximize mitochondrial output.

I did a 6 week cycle of it and it was a little while after cycle of MOTS. I really had a really good reaction to the MOTS. The MOTS made me feel so good that I changed my research focus from body recomp to cellular health. I'm actually currently on that 14 week protocol lol. I Might give SLU another try down the road.

Chaining together as protocols and running the body like an operations warehouse gets exciting because there's so many ways to approach this. Let us know if you go that route and how it works out.

I like the idea of getting to a maintenance level with reta and cycling through the cellular health protocol (NAD + SS/MOTS/SLU 18-22 week), GHRH/GHRP protocol (tesa/ipa 16 week), and repair (KLOW+Cartalax) ~12 week protocol. Viewing them in terms of strength, endurance, and hypertrophy block mesocycles one could potentially line it all up to build a very resilient body long term.

I'm still testing what works for me but my thinking is I'll end up pairing like this:
1. Muscular endurance blocks (15-30+ rep ranges primarily) pairs best with cellular health protocol from the performance increases I received from SLU...NAD and MOTS help a ton with energy so it fits.
2. Hypertrophy blocks (8-15 rep ranges primarily) do a lot of muscle damage so recovery is key, making this ideal to pair with my GHRH/GHRP protocol. I most have been enjoying tesa/ipa for sleep benefits, but I would tweak this specific to faster recovery turnaround.
3. Strength blocks (4-8 rep ranges) are punishing on my joints and tendons as an advanced lifter, making the repair protocol a good idea to run during this period so tendonitis doesn't take me out before I reach a planned deload.

It really has me thinking because I look at training and plan it out a year in advance; it would be neat to parallel that with the calorie cycling (I do it already, but would get better now that I have reta working for me), and then peptide cycling protocols for intelligent longevity focused enhancements.
