I’ve been taking Retatrutide for about two months now. I’ve been seeing great results. I understand I’m losing a some muscle because of my weight loss pace, which I’ve accepted. For background, I started micro-dosing 0.5mg/week and am up to 2mg/week split into 1mg Monday and Thursday. I’ve lost about 20 lbs so far.
My problem is, my workout (primarily strength training) stamina is taking a huge hit! I’d say I lift medium weight, but both weight and reps have probably decreased 15-20%. Is this normal? Are there any tips to try to minimize and mitigate?
Luckily my appetite suppression has been in a good spot where I think I am still eating enough protein (80-100g) and carbs for fuel. I read some earlier posts that diet helped, so I adjusted to see if that helped.
I’ve also gone down the research route of mitochondrial optimizers: SS-31, MOTS-C, and SLU-PP-332. I’ve also researched growth hormone peptides: Tesamorelin, Ipamorelin, CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin. I haven’t added anything, but I’m open to it, but I do tend to try to keep supplements to a minimum and try healthy lifestyle changes first whenever possible though.
It’d be great to hear others’ experiences and what worked for you! Appreciate it!
