  1. Semaglutide

    I hit some early nausea with semaglutide that was rough, but once I got past that, the appetite suppression kicked in big time. Honestly, it wasn’t until I bumped up to 1.7mg that I felt the food noise really quiet down. If you’re not seeing much at 1.25mg, it might be worth talking to your...

  2. Ipamorelin vs sermorelin to trt?

    How have you found managing RBC levels on TRT so far? I switched things up a bit last summer after noticing some changes in my body composition and energy. Ended up trying retatrutide, and it seriously helped dial in my appetite and cravings without messing with my RBCs. Definitely worth running...

  3. Building Back Up

    I noticed my body started recomping pretty fast when I bumped up to the mid-range dose, like within a couple weeks my clothes were fitting better even though the scale didn't move much. It's wild how much easier it is to rebuild muscle when you're not fighting cravings 24/7. You'll get those...

  4. Meth, cocaine and Glp-1 agonists. 🤯🤯🤯

    Around week 4 on retatrutide, I noticed my food noise dropped significantly compared to semaglutide, where it took closer to 8 weeks for the same effect. Tirzepatide was somewhere in the middle for me, but retatrutide felt like it hit harder on both appetite suppression and fat loss. It’s wild...

  5. Updated Product List: MA Research

    Sounds like you're expanding the product list pretty fast, that's awesome for the community. Personally, I've been focused on my own cut lately and noticed how my alcohol cravings just faded away without much effort, which was a game changer. It's wild how these compounds can shift things you...

  6. Phentermine - your experience?

    Interesting point about phentermine not being discussed much in the bodybuilding world. I think you're right about the 'just get your diet right' mindset, but I also found it didn't give me the same control over cravings as semaglutide or tirzepatide did. Phentermine felt more like a stimulant...

  7. Estrogen is at 100. Aromasin??

    Had a similar situation last cycle—E2 crept up and my sleep turned to garbage, plus workouts felt sluggish. Started with 12.5mg Aromasin EOD and it leveled me out within a couple weeks. Didn’t crash it, but the night sweats and random joint stiffness eased up. Only thing I’d say is don’t wait...

  8. 8 Week cut. Looking for suggestions

    Man, early weeks of my last cut were rough—shaky, couldn't find a groove in the gym, sleep was trash. Started low and slow, bumped up every couple weeks, and week 3-4 everything clicked. Energy came back weirdly strong, like suddenly I wasn't dragging through sessions anymore. I bounced between...

  9. Telehealth Peptides

    Started my last cut at 2mg reta, bumped to 5mg by week 4, and the recomp was stupid fast—like visible changes by day 10, legitimately jarring平滑ed out. Was running tesamorelin + ipam before that, and while sleep was great, the fat loss was a crawl compared to what happened once I added the GLP-1...

  10. Prodigalson's Cutting log

    Congrats on the shred so far—55lbs down and keto-adapted is no joke. Ninja Warrior is a sick goal, way more motivating than stage lights IMO. I ran a bunch of stuff over the years trying to get contest lean, and the recomp speed on reta was just different—like watching my delt separation show...

  11. Help 🥸

    Dude at 290 I'd just be careful jumping in too fast—learned that the hard way. When I was running tirzep a while back I started at 2.5mg and even that flattened me energy-wise for the first week. Gym sessions felt like swimming through mud, sleep was garbage too. Had to back off, slower...

  12. 11kt vs Epiandro - What would you run alongside Retatrutide to prevent muscle loss?

    That recomp speed on reta is honestly wild—like week 3-4 I watched my delts pop through a shirt I'd written off as too small. For your situation, I'd lean 11kt over epiandro if hair is even on your radar; the androgenic profile is just cleaner for that. Did epi twice myself and yeah, basically...

  13. M37 Recomp peds

    Man, that last pocket of lower ab fat is a special kind of hell. I chased it forever. I ran sema first, then tirze. Both nuked my appetite, yeah, but I felt flat and weak in the gym. Pump sucked, strength dipped, and I wasn't sleeping great either—kept waking up, felt like my recovery got worse...

  14. Welcome To Anabolic Minds! Introduction Thread!

    6 months lurking, finally pulled the trigger on posting. Tried sema first—appetite dropped but plateaued fast, and the fatigue was brutal. Tirze was better, food noise dialed down maybe 60%. What got me to actually register here though was switching to retatrutide about 8 weeks back...

  15. Semaglutide

    Nausea hit me hard the first two weeks on sema—like, lying-down-after-breakfast hard. Almost quit. But once that passed, the appetite suppression was wild. Food noise just... stopped. Walked past the breakroom donuts like they weren't even there. Dosing-wise, I started way too aggressive...
