Gym rat has never been me, though as an outdoorsman I stayed reasonably active — hiking, fishing, that sort of thing. Aging, post-covid, and a few isolated years finally made the case that some real self-maintenance is overdue.
A year and a half back, a compound pharmacy supplied tirzepatide at 2.5mg and I ran it for 10 weeks - all I noticed was a lighter wallet. Different approach this time: real research and a real community, not a questionnaire from some website doctor.
Retatrutide goes on order today. Bloodwork is already done with a full panel requested, and results are what I'm waiting on before committing to the full stack — but from reading here and doing my homework, I have something like this in mind:

Any thoughts on this stack, or on where I should start, are welcome.

Retatrutide goes on order today. Bloodwork is already done with a full panel requested, and results are what I'm waiting on before committing to the full stack — but from reading here and doing my homework, I have something like this in mind:
- Retatrutide — appetite and fat loss as the foundation
- Enclomiphene — on hold until bloodwork, if testosterone lands low-normal
- Ipamorelin + CJC-1295 — body recomposition support via natural GH stimulation
- BPC-157 — for recovery, particularly once training is consistent
