Morning my pep buddy’s.

So just want to confirm

Please and get some input on my protocol.

Currently running

Reta 2.5mg weekly

Tesa 2mg hour before bed 5 on 2 off

Klow 1.5mg before bed

And I want to introduce SS31 and mots c to kick some

Mitro chondira ass .

I’ve been taking 2mg of ss31 and 2mg of mots c daily for just under a week and want to get your input please.

I looked at the 14 week protocol but I don’t wanna run nad.

Does my 2mg daily of each seem

About right ? And should

I do 5 days on 2 days off ?

Thanks all
 
My Mongolian Gopher prefers to run SS-31 @ 4mg daily, for 4 weeks, before he even considered adding in the MOTS-C. It's not cheap.

MOTS-C, anecdotal evidence suggests a highly variable dosage per individual. Some are happy at 2mg 3x/week. Some love 5mg 3x/week.

You will have to see what your Latvian Gerbil prefers best.

There are lots of suggestions with SS-31, I suggest running this,

SS-31 10mg x10 Vials:

1ml Bac, Pull 33 Units, for 30 days, this will give you 3.3mg per day to use the full 10 vial kit

No full 30 days no days off with SS-31

Confirm that - SS-31 runs without a pause. I put my rodent through this quarterly, only difference is 5 mg daily for 20 days, adding 2.5 mg MOTS-c the last 5 days. Then 2 days off, continue the MOTS 5 mg, 3x week.

Adding MOTS at a smaller dose seems to mitigate the ISR. Jumping in at 5 mg was a jolt to the poor RS.

I’ve gone to 50 mg SS-31. Much more affordable. Only two vials per cycle.

There’s not really any scientific reason to do 5 days on 2 days off for any peptides, it’s just something that got started by wellness clinics and perpetuates itself through Reddit and social media lol. The only exception is if you want to do that to deal with any water retention from GH secretagogues, but even then you may as well start off dosing daily and then pull back if you feel necessary. In general tho some peptides are weekly, some multiple times a week, and some daily or multiple times a day, but 5 days on 2 days off is usually just an unnecessary waste of something you should be taking every day. FWIW I personally have been taking Tesa every day for 6 weeks and water retention has yet to become a problem

Also can support this, I am doing 5mg daily, 2 weeks into cycle now and continuing at least 2 more. Definitely wish had gone with the 50mg kit though lol

Exactly right and borne out in the clinical trials for tesa (Egrifta) and ss31 (Forzinity) - daily administration, no breaks.
 
My lab rat runs 5mg Mots Daily for 30 days then 60 days off (1 mo/quarter) At the same time I inject him with 50mg of NAD+ daily. Both in the morning. First thing, fasted. Like 5am. He tends to go to sleep daily around 1030 and if a morning is missed, it stays missed. Injecting later crushes his sleep cycle otherwise. He's also alternating 4 week cycles of Tesa (10mg/week for 4 weeks) and IPA (5mg/week for 4 weeks) which he's forced to endure just before bed and 2 hours after he eats his last meal. If my boy follows this, his quality of life, workouts, and weight training make him look and feel like he can manage endless sets in the gym and look like Henry Cavill in Superman. But he doesn't. Because he's a lab rat, not a gym rat.

Spot on the 5/2 routine is way over played with reasoning that is all over the place.
 
I will be receiving my Mots-C in a couple of days (it cleared customs and is in BC)>

I was all set to dose 2.5-5mg / 3x wk - seems to be the most popular protocol.

However, I just watched a video of a Dr. that just came back from a peptide conference where it was discussed that certain peptides, like Mots-C would be best micro-dosed ever day (1-2.5mg)

I am prepared to dose 1mg the day I receive and then every morning.

Any suggestions ??? Please !
 
For the protocol my wife and I use it matches our workout routine as Mots is a part of our preworkout stack. It’s 4 on / 1 off. So obviously we are dosing 6 days a week and we have gradually increased to 2.5mg which seems to be the ideal for both of us.
