I did bodybuilding from 10 years in the past and I think long term, it’s better to do two 8 week cycles with 8 weeks off /TRT then 16 weeks straight. You should definitely check your liver enzymes every month.
I don’t think from bodybuilding I “hurt” my body biochemically but I did hurt my lower back from deadlifting and caused shoulder arthrosis from training to heavy… So make sure you don’t cause any damage like I did…
I’m definitely interested in how this goes since you’re taking so many things to prevent delirious health effects. I occasionally still do a cycle but it’s never anything crazy anymore.
Glp1? I just finished a cut and I’m doing a bulk, but not at the level you are. I feel good for the most part.
Yes, tirzepatide. Started at 5mg and finished at 20mg, then dropped the dose to 2.5mg to back. I stopped it and I’m taking retatrutide. I planned to stop it too, low dose doesn’t seem to be beneficial that much, too much GIP activation
20mg! Man you go hard on this stuff haha. I went up to 7.5mg Tirz, I’ve lowered to 3.75mg for maintenance. I might try reta in the future.
The less weight to lose you have, the higher the dose you need to take. I was feeling great at 20mg.
What is the reason for that?
That’s how it works!
You’re at 120kg, and take 2.5mg, your weight drop to 110kg. Now, you don’t feel appetite suppression.
You go up to 5mg, and your weight drop to 100kg.
Then you go to 7.5mg etc.
