Is Cardarine worth it? Currently on Reta, one injection of 2mg weekly on Wednesday. Microdosing enclomiphine as well at 9.3 mg and taking Cjc no DAC.

I'd ditch the girlfriend. If you don't feel that's necessary then you should focus on way to support her sobriety when she gets out vs. wanting to transform yourself.
Why would that be necessary bro? Why not try to become the very best version of myself right now, while she is working hard in herself too yk? If anything she should ditch me I’ve done some scummy things and she still loves me.
 
Props to you man posting up, pics and all.

I like your base foundation and enclo use at your age.

I don’t no much of all about your medication condition, but glad you’re looking past it and not letting it hold you back. You’re working with it, which is great.

Cjc and card, likely not worth it. Card I’ve used deep in preps but the fat loss was more related to the fact it allows me to do longer harder cardio sessions when I was so mentally and physically drained. So it wa secondary.

If your condition holds you back from intense cardio, I do think 2iu gh, could help as a very researched method, but think in terms of months, 6+.

Slu from my basic reading on it might be interesting for you.

Diet though, if cardio can’t be intense, correct me if I’m wrong will be important. You need to find out what your body likes.
I was researching Slu as well it seems very interesting but not super effective in low doses but someone can of course correct me if I’m wrong. I used to play water polo sophomore year, which if you know about that sport you know it has some of the most intense cardio demands. I wasn’t good at all but I remember that I was much leaner at the time but the high intensity of the cardio would sometimes cause an episode, so I’d eat something after practice like a protein bar to get my blood sugar back up.
 
Welcome to the board. Props to you training through with your genetic condition.
Good start on the retatrutide for fat loss. Can you post your diet and supplement program?
I would suggest some form of testosterone and GH since you have experience with both. How much time do you have before your girl gets home?
For diet I’m tryin to eat around 195-205g of protein a day, 260-270g of carbs, 50-60g of fats and 20-30g of fiber. Calorie range is 2270-2440. Definitely have not been hitting these especially the protein though. Does anyone who’s been through college have advice on how to eat, how to track especially when during exams finals etc. Because I struggle with a balanced schedule which is why I started taking stim meds again.
 
Please ignore the snarky posts of guys who don't wish to be helpful. MassiveG is absolutely correct that getting an idea of your present diet and training is key to helping you to make further progress. I think it's helpful to "major in the majors." What I mean by that is your diet will dwarf your supplements at the present time in helping you reach your goals of cutting. And the diet is something you have easy access to rather than trying to obtain various compounds.

Also, you can do HIIT or LISS (high impact interval training, or low impact steady state cardio) to help create that caloric deficit to accompany your diet. Because you're young, you might like and enjoy the HIIT. I'm an old fart, so I prefer the LISS, but take your pick, and do what you enjoy and what you'll stay consistent with. You could even mix it up if you want. Just get regular cardio in.

If you get the diet set up and the cardio set up, stick with your training, and in 8 weeks you'll be very pleased with your progress, regardless of what you run with compounds. Good luck, and keep up the good work.
Thank you very much Tommy. I do also agree with what Mack said. He’s right I am a “big boy” now 😂 mommy and daddy arnt going to hold my hand and that’s something I’ve learned having this condition. I was born with it and I’ll fucking die with it, so I got to make the most of it, that’s what I like to say. And he is right I’m definitely not eating enough protein right now and doing nearly enough cardio. That’s the first thing that has to change. I have definitely seen big results with the Retatrutide as well though. My mindset used to be “I have to be the bulkiest guy possible” so I was literally just fat as shit I was 235 at one point bloated and inflamed asf this was back in March and may while taking test hgh, and in may I added ostarine. I was able to get down to 200 on 3mg of Reta though and everyone around me told me I looked a lot better, so my mindset started to change. Hope this is all making sense btw. Also just today at the church I go to, the priest told me I looked like a lost weight in my face, and a friend today and Friday night told me I looked like I lost weight. So clearly the Reta is working which I’m happy about. So I think you’ve all been helpful even Mack haha. I’m only on 2mg of Reta rn so maybe in January (my Reta is at school, unless someone knows how to get peptides through tsa let me know) I will up the dose to 4mg at a twice a week injection because it seems my body responds well to Reta, and changing my diet and cardio routine. Does that make sense?
 
103 on 3ius IS high imo. What you need is some patience and a caloric deficit. There is no magic compound that will melt the fat away.
Really? I know guys who just experimented with mk677 and their fasting blood glucose was 180+. I know you have to test at 123 twice consecutively to be diagnosed as a type two diabetic so I wasn’t too concerned and I wasn’t taking berberine, just the Retatrutide for blood sugar control. I’ve heard on other thread and heard even Stewie say that tirzepitide is more efficient in terms of blood sugar control.
 
Why the microdose Enclomiphene out of curiosity? I assume you’re running it because your test levels are low?

Would think a more regular protocol would be more optimal for restoring test levels or even optimizing your test levels if you wish to stay natural—unless of course there’s potential interactions with your condition and that’s why you’re keeping the dose low

Stick with the Reta. It works for you, and it does help with blood glucose regulation. The other stuff is fine, but not necessary in you reaching your goals. GH while in school... I was so broke as a student. I remember $$$ for laundry, and split a pizza with a body on Sunday nights. That was it! LOL If you're as broke as I was back then, hold the GH until later, IMO. You can reach your leanness goals with diet, exercise and training. Slow and steady wins the race. You're not that heavy right now, so losing 10 pounds of fat, and holding onto your lean muscle tissue will make a big difference in the aesthetics of your physique.

Their fasting glucose was 180+, which is caused by MK-677, that is known for causing insulin insensitivity (even if that doesn't always translate to elevated FBG). At your dose (basically a replacement HGH level) a FBG above 100 is somewhat high, especially when already paired with GLP agonists. It will likely improve as you drop body fat and increase your cardio.

I’m microdosing it because I’m running it year round, I’ve been using the enclo since around September as well as hcg, but stopped using hcg in October. I first started using enclo back in January when I got my levels tested and they were 360. I used enclo for two months started at 12.5 and then when up to 25 mg a day and got my test up to 1365 in two months lol. The highest my test got up to was about 1700 on 250 test C, and my shbg was pretty low both times. My test crashed in August at 278 after getting off my cycle cold turkey after bad hematocrit and hdl and ldl bloods. fatigue and lethargy were the worst ever. But I’ve been using the enclo since then goal is to pretty much optimize levels if that makes sense since mg body responds very well to enclo.

Yes exactly I’m guessing when I was on cycle, hematocrit was higher and so was fbg because I’m at a high body fat. One of the main reasons I don’t want to touch test or hgh until I get much leaner. I’m probably like 25-30 percent rn.
 
I have hyper pp, high potassium. I take keveyis which is a weak diuretic which helps manage my episodes. I’ve read a lot of your threads in the past, I read your 2016 thread on cardarine, you’re very educated on biochemistry, it seems many on here are. Lots to learn. If people are wondering how old I am, I am 20 years old, nearing the end of my first semester of freshman year college lol. I used to be in muchh better shape during sophomore-senior year of highschool, had that routine set diet and a sport after school to get the cardio in, and after hs I took a gap year and lost my routine and still struggling to find it and adjust to college life. I also started taking adderal, just a few days ago (I’ve always been prescribed stimulants for add/adhd but never taken them always been the person to shrug them off or be like fuck them I don’t need them) but now I find that I function better with them. The largest triggers I’ve found for my episodes have been long periods without food, alcohol, and poor sleep. Poor sleep imo I think is the biggest one. I also have a brother and an uncle who used to be very overweight, both have hyperpp as well, and they were prescribed ozempic injections to help with weight loss as well as to help manage the episodes. Someone more knowledgeable on biochemistry can help explain as to why glps help manage the episodes of periodic paralysis (I’m pretty sure it has something to do with the blood sugar management) but it’s one of the reasons my parents and Drs have no problem with me taking Retatrutide. I’ll post my supplement and diet as well
I would suspect it's just like treating someone with acute hyperkalemia with a bolus dose of insulin or a beta 2 adrenergic receptor agonist—similar, not exactly.

With your particular situation– a major difference with using an incretin mimetic would be a sustained balance of redirecting-shifting potassium into your cells rather than free potassium in blood. There's much more complexities being you're inflicted with a channelopathy ion gated disorder. That's the simplified differences of it.

Slightly off topic. My oldest daughter a few year's ago had a totally thyroidectomy due to hurthle cell carcinoma. A few months in her recovery, she wasn't getting in a sufficient amounts of potassium, we focused more on her calcium intake. Her endo titrated her levothyroxine up a tad too much that triggered thyrotoxicosis–in-turn ultimately plummeted her potassium (hypokalemia) leading to thyrotoxic periodic paralysis. Quite scary during her initial episodes.

Your situation is quite complicated for me to advise on your specific queries. I would suspect anything that may influence in/directly your bicarbonate buffering system—"X" drug/lifestyle that may destabilize your potassium levels. You'll want to be cognizant about quick decisions before testing the waters.

Good lord, 180?

I am able to hold mine around 96ish. But I only use 12.5mg. I do like my gh, but I respond so well to mk. I do use a good bit of Metformin.
 
Hi guys I also just wanted to ask if the discolering on my tricep could be something to be concerned about? I assumed it was vasoconstriction due to the extreme cold temperatures (I live in the northeast) but let me know I would appreciate it.

Does it feel any different ? did you train shortly before the picture ? or maybe sit in an akward position ?

That looks fine bro! I’m from the northeast originally and the cold always made my skin look a tad different at times just from the weather. Unless you had some sort of injury to it or bad pin that you didn’t mention, I wouldn’t think twice about it

I’ve never had an issue being stopped by tsa with peptides in my carry on luggage. Not something they care about. Just bring it not reconstituted and do it wherever you’re going. Or, if it makes you feel better, mail it to yourself.

Don't ever visit Australia.
 
Isn't this the same guy that drinks beer post workout? 🤔
Who knows..he who boasts and screams the loudest is usually the smallest and stupidest person on the board. I don't usually go off on people but my brother in law has MS and any type of muscular and nerve disorder is no joking matter. Plus George is new and was asking for advice which we all did at one time or another.
 
Holy shit, what's up brother! I thought i was the only "shape shifter" in existence! That's what I like to call it. I tell people im a transformer. Nobody knows what the hell im ever talking about anyways.

All joking aside, its one shitty ass life. Im hypopp, have thyroid issues, celiac disease, and a casein allergy. I possibly only shift because of my thyroid but cant get my thyroid treated because I dont actually have the thyroid antibodies, so my doctors think it functions fine. Ha, they should come live my life then tell me that.

I cant really help you with your original question but really just wanted to comment because you are probably the only person here that understands what I go through. Its a nightmare.

Sounds like @Stewie might have a pretty good idea too. Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis, pretty sure I been there, never been so jacked up hyper but felt so gross in my life, slept and didn't eat anything for like two days after that day. Thought I was going to die.

I cant touch androgens(unfortunately i have to remind myself that everyday). They are my number one trigger and send me into an endless potassium shift loop. Then I got the normal triggers, large meals(primarily sugar), resting for too long, resting from activity(this sucks working a physical job). Going to sleep at night, ugh, every single morning, only one question, how bad will today be. I live on potassium chloride.

Ive finally decided its time to hang it all up. Ive tried to make things work forever. Sometimes it kind of does but only very briefly. The celiac disease is a very recent diagnosis and given everything else i experience, along with all the other autoimmune disorders in my family, reality has finally set in, im not beating this, I can only "manage" it.
