Sample reported outcomes

  • Positive body recomposition with body fat dropping from 19.1% to ~16% and skeletal muscle increasing from 31.3kg to 32.8kg over a month. Noted excellent pumps and strength maintenance in the gym despite a 700-calorie deficit.
  • Losing fat while building muscle and consuming 4800 calories a day.
  • Blood pressure and glucose are still under control
  • Improved sleep, better recovery, increased strength, and clothes fitting looser
  • Blood glucose level measured at 59 mg/dL after starting Berberine (compared to 70 mg/dL in July with just Retatrutide)
  • Lost a pant size, waist down 1 inch, up 8 lbs (suspected water weight from hydration/electrolytes), maintained muscle
  • Gained 4.5 lbs of muscle and reduced body fat to 11.8%, with overall weight reaching 203 lbs.
  • Successfully gained lean mass and managed blood pressure spikes

Self-reported community experiences, not verified results.

Sample reported side effects

  • Water retention, mild wrist ache, and temporary loss of some muscle definition due to holding water.
  • Elevated blood glucose (managed by the stack), sleep/coma-like state for ~10 hours from PM HGH dosing.
  • Water weight gain, snug-fitting rings
  • Water retention causing a temporary 5 lbs weight gain
  • Morning lightheadedness when standing up quickly (noted as a pre-existing symptom), possible mild hypoglycemia
  • Initial Retatrutide side effects (nausea, reflux, sleep issues, wired but tired); TRT side effects (high hematocrit requiring phlebotomies which crashed ferritin)
  • Trenbolone bumped blood pressure, requiring Telmisartan and Nebivolol
  • Acid reflux (managed with Omeprazole)
