  1. Aging dog with muscle wasting and prohormones

    I didn't give him anything in the end except lots of love. I took him to the vet for bloodwork to see if we could work out why he'd slowed down so much in the past month as the Gabapentin trial hadn't helped with his arthritis. Bloodwork only returned mild anemia, and his vitals were all...
  2. Aging dog with muscle wasting and prohormones

    Thanks for the responses. For arthritis he's been receiving monthly cartophen injections. He's been getting the shots for 4 years now. Initially it was effective quarterly but we're down to the maximum monthly frequency as his condition gradually worsens. Supplements include rosehip...
  3. Aging dog with muscle wasting and prohormones

    none taken and it is a blessing having him around that long. TBH I'm leaning towards bad idea just for the fact I have no idea of an effective dose, the side effects etc. Just thought I'd throw it out and see what others have to say.
  4. Aging dog with muscle wasting and prohormones

    I realize this is uncharted territory as I haven't been able to find any studies involving PH's administered to dogs with the exception of Testosterone and DHEA. I have a 13 year old Great Dane with arthritis who's becoming very frail. He's suffering sarcopenia at an accelerated pace and it's...
  5. MK-677

    Yeah, this compound is often faked in my experience. You really need to get it 3rd party tested yourself to be certain as many companies lie about 3rd party testing. I've received bunk MK677 from 3 different vendors over the years. In the end I cut out the middleman and found a source in China...
  6. Long acting Ghrelin mimetics (MK-677) = brain detrimental

    MK677 decreased my anxiety to nil. The reason for this is due to the sleep quality. I'm usually a poor sleeper and if I get 4-5 nights in a row of terrible sleep I experience anxiety and stress. MK677 gives me amazing sleep quality reminiscent of when I was a child. Go to bed, wake up in the...
  7. MK-677

    Elevated prolactin has been reported with MK677. What dose were you taking? Did you take any other supplements alongside MK?
  8. MK-677

    Doesn't sound right for MK677. I'd stop taking it right away. You may have bunk product. Have you experienced extreme hunger, increased pumps in the gym?
  9. Turning 18 , thoughts on Mk 677

    You're asking about taking a research chemical which at best increases your HGH/IGF-1 levels to a little above high/normal when you're in that range already? I personally wouldn't do it. Reason being you're still growing at 18 and your hormones are though the roof. Short of taking AAS you're not...
  10. Can Barbell Squats Ever Truly Be Replaced?

    For me there is the barbell squat and then there's the rest.
  11. How long do you take to recover from maxing out?

    Depends mate. Firstly on the individual and also your level of proficiency. A beginner for example could potentially max out every week without over training while an advanced athlete may test a max only every few months. The stronger you become, the more taxing lifts are on your CNS/recovery...
  12. Training for strength

    Oh nice I didn't expect so much input here. Thanks Renegade I've used a similar routine as you mention but it lends more to muscle gain. Gaining muscle comes fairly easy for me as a mesomorph but I'm one of those guys who looks stronger than they are. Hyde, thanks for your input man I'll...
  13. Did I strain my chest?

    Sounds about right for a strained muscle. Years ago I strained my right quad during squats and it's now a recurring theme if I don't take time to warm up carefully. Take more time to stretch prior to lifting and perform numerous light sets with slow controlled high reps to increase blood flow to...
  14. 42yo First run with tren

    First cycles are usually the wow cycles. I guess if you were doing a lot of things wrong first time round there's a lot of room for improvement next run. Get your nutrition, sleep and a sound training split together the rest should take care of itself. You have a great physique now and if you...
  15. How Long Are Your Sessions

    Depends really. Normally around 45-60 mins 6-7 days a week with minimal rest between sets. Now I'm doing a run of Smolov (midway through base meso) and I'm finding it really feels like a deload. Time is no more than 30 minutes with rest between sets and legs trained EOD.
