So after your morning dose you get a bit tired? Just like normally sleep or just mentaly slow. I get this as well. And i keep thinking it was just not enough sleep but maybe its the GHRP2[/quote]

It did go not too long after; I’ve eliminated caffeine from my diet, too, so I couldn’t be sure. The way to tell for sure with sleep is to refrain from administering the morning dose just long enough to ascertain whether or not you have had enough sleep, i.e. have a shower before you’ve drank any coffee or tea, then gauge how awake you feel.

322

Good idea. I do love the sleep i get from this stuff. Although i had some dreams way to vivid i woke up in sweat and terrified. lol

I will be interested to see your results and if it helps in the weight room and body comp as you are running the CJC as well.

Workouts are looking good.

323

Thanks Ryan. I forgot todays GHRP! not a great start… I’ll keep you posted mate.

324

Yesterdays leg workout, my interwebz was down so couldn’t post it…

belt squats: 60 x 6, x6, x8 Timed set: 3 minutes 36, 3.13 minutes 36, 2.36 minutes: 26

Good mornings with safety squat bar: 55x5, 65 x5, 75 x5, 85 x5, 95 x5, 85 x5

standing calf raise with safety squat bar: 65 x8, 85 x10, 105 x10 x10 x10

Brief workout today, very sore from the last two days so only a short , light workout today, rest would actually have been better.
shoulder presses, incline presses, calves

325

Sunday: 100mcg CJC and 150mcg GHRP-2 AM

Sore as fuck, rest!

326

Hey guys, reading about Ryan’s fatigue… When I started GHRP, I used to dose when I got back from
gym, then eat 25 min later. Both the dose, then the food 25 min later, were creating a fall off in energy.
The dose required energy from my system to pulse…so there was a little fatigue from that…but combined with a fall off after the food/carbs/insulin spike, I got pretty lethargic. Both/all were falling off at the same time.

(Actually the worst I felt this was after training, came home, did dose, waited 25 min, then did post shake…which is cows milk, protein, and 40 g of Carb powder. All that affects insulin, and it all would wear off at the same time, causing a real low point in energy.)

I talked to my rep buddy, and he moved my schedule around a little. I do wake dose, but don’t eat for a good 40 minutes after or so, and go with clean foods, not carbs…then the other dose is mid afternoon, with food at least an hour away on both sides of it. Then the night dose at bed.

327

Mon and Tues both long days at work and I didn’t get home until about 1900 so I got an early night last night in preparation for todays squat and DL workout but woke up at 4am and couldn’t get back to sleep for ages leaving me feeling like shit today. I’m still off the caffeine so I’m going to suffer today and hopefully get a good nights sleep tonight. I bought some herbal sleeping tablets, too, which should help.

Overall considering I haven’t trained properly for four days, todays workout was pretty mediocre, but I suppose you can’t smash it up every time…

LEGS: Belt squat 60x10, 70x10, 80x6, x6, x15

Safety bar squat: 65 x5, 75 x5, 85x5, 85 plus chains x3, 95 plus chains x3, x5

calf raise with safety squat bar 65 x12, x15, x15, 75 x10 85 x8

If it helps, when I stop drinking coffee…I get the headache the next day due to ending
the constant morning coffee caffeine. That day, I drink one Coke and it alleviates the headache, and then it doesn’t come the next day and stops.

Gonna wait a couple days till off the antibiotic, then start the CJC and GHRP 6 together.
I read that Avelox, the antibiotic I am on for Sinus infection, has resulted in tendon tears.

Do you find that overall, the lethargy is less when you shoot the RP on an empty stomach and keep the carbs clean and low?

Upper body and calves:

A slightly better workout today. I stayed carb-less until 1200 then ate a chocolate brownie and a snickers, and drank a 500ml redbull (sugar free) I was absolutely shattered yesterday and didn’t sleep particularly well last night, although I got about 6-7 hours I still felt tired and a bit lethargic this morning, and I looked like shit with my eyes all puffy.

I’m going to start trying to keep a food log as well, my diet has been very slack the last couple of weeks, my GF said I look like I’ve put a little fat on around my face (in a nice way after I asked her what she thought) I’ve been using very little adex lately and have been eating a lot of carbs, I’m not looking bloated anywhere else on my body so it may just be the eye puffiness from lack of sleep, but it’s given me a kick up the ass to be more diet conscious again. I was wondering if two weeks of no caffeine had anything to do with it? Either way it’s a minor problem, if a problem at all, just something I’m going to be conscious of from now on anyway.

Upon waking: pint of water

0800: 2 large gammons steaks and 2 eggs

1145: chocolate brownie, snickers bar and a 500m relentless drink (sugar free)

EDIT: FUCKING WORKOUT DIDN"T UPLOAD AGAIN…

1400: Tesco chargrilled chicken and pasta pot

1500: 500ml blender bomb shake (carb-less)

1600: apple and banana

1900: enormous portion of chicken and vegetable stirfry

Yes. I was fascinated by that. After a month or so, I could pin GHRP 6 on an empty stomach, have some coffee, and then a half hour later maybe some eggs with chicken.

My mid afternoon pin was at about 4:00 PM, after having eaten a snack an hour earlier, and
not eating dinner for a couple hours. I think with the talk about GHRP 6 giving you an intense hunger, people automatically assume you have to ‘feed’ the GHRP after you pin. That and everyone warns people that you have to not eat 30 min prior and not eat until 30 min after, and not carbs or fat. So I think psychologically, guys tend to assume you have to
eat in conjunction with the dose. I never saw a difference, and stopped connecting food with the GHRP…eating maybe an hour later…and keeeping it clean. I think you are right.
And when I changed all that, I got NO lethargy at all. Like the difference between black and white.

Budda, guys, I have completely stopped lifting for going on two weeks now. Vacation in Florida with Mickey
the Rat, and caught a Sinus infection middle of trip. Been on Antibiotics for a full week now, and starting
to feel like training again…maybe tommorrow, or def. Saturday morning.

Question. I stopped GHRP all together. And now I have CJC and GHRP 6 ready to start up. For example, if I lift on Saturday morning, when should I start the cycle? Does it matter? Probably not huh…but just wondering. THought about pinning both on Friday night, then again at wake Sat morning, and then lifting for the first time again mid morning Saturday.

Antibiotic that works well for me is Avelox. Read last week that Avelox has a connection with
tendon ruptures. :slight_smile: So waiting till Saturday, and even then, going light and probably just doing
legs.

I hope you had a great holiday despite being poorly; and I hope you’re better soon.

BBB told me he was using GHRP-6 for a month whilst not training (whilst moving house I think) and felt it kept him lean and was great for his overall well being etc.

I think you’ll find GHRP a completely different animal when you’re using it with CJC, in a good way of course.

Good to have you back :slight_smile:

334

0700: woke up and drank a pint of water

Breakfast: 0900 2 large gammons steaks, 2 eggs and a protein shake. I was ravenous when I ate this.

0930: another shake

1330: by now I had eaten 3 apples and a banana

1400: pre workout: 3 kit-kats (they were on sale) and 2 sugar free red bulls

Workout: Sumo DL (no belt or straps) 60 x10, x3, 80x3, 100 x3, 120 x3, 140 x1, 160 x1, 180 x1, 190 x1 PR, 200 x1PR

Leg press 50 x10, 70x 12, 90 x12, 110 x12, 100 x12, x12, x12

slanted calf raise: 50 x10, 70 x12, 90 x12, 110 x10, 100 x12, x12, x12

Leg ext: x10 x10 x10

leg raise x10 x10 x10

walked home from gym: 25 mins

1600: 3 wings, half a chicken, 2 pitta bread and a large portion of rice

1900; protein shake

2240: did my GHRP shot (I say GHRP because I’m not sure whether it is 2 or 6) I actually think it’s RP-6, which would explain the weight gain of several pounds in the last week and the intense hunger pangs I experienced 5 minutes after the shot!

22.25-50: demolished a protein shake, 2 bananas, an apple and a bowel of highest quality dorset cereal with dried fruit and nuts in it in natural yoghurt.

I’m out of CJC now so I’ll order some more and see if this weight gain log can actually gather some momentum at last and I can hit 240LB as originally planned.

2300 Was still ravenous and ate 3 more kit-kats :frowning:

Cool. No disrespect, but I bet it was GHRP 2. That stuff controls fat pretty well…

336

Hey TX, no disrespect taken whatsoever my friend. It’s funny you say that though because I’m wondering if mine is actually GHRP-6! Having used both I’m wondering if there really is THAT much difference between the two.

How are you feeling TX?

Just weighed myself: 16.5 stone/231 LB

337

I am just loving the GHRP 2. Quite amazing. The sleep is outstanding. I have not slept better in 2 years. Not sure how much it is doing for fat gain. I am only doing 2 doses. One at nigth and one in the AM. After the AM dose i dont eat for another 5hrs or so i know that one will never be affected by my food. The night time dose probably is as i consume an insane amount of calories up to 1hr before bed. So i am sure there is a leak of carbs and what not that will affect the efficacy of that last dose. But it is still doing wonders for my sleep. I am giving this stuff a run for its money at keeping fat at bay though. Eating a ton and seeing what happens. On days that i can i will try to do some cardio in the AM to accelerate the use of the liberated FAs

338

I’m not sleeping too well at the moment, I’m going to shoot some up in a minute actually and see how I get on tonight…

Matt Krocowski, “I realize that a majority of the people in the world (or at least in this country) suffer from weakness and the inability to force themselves to do the things that are necessary to achieve the things that they would really like to in life. For me, the pain of failing to achieve what I set out to do is much greater than the pain I endure to do what is required of me to achieve those goals. I can think of nothing worse or more painful than to give up and never move closer to the things I really desire. It is this fear of failure that often drives me and far outweighs the pain of discipline and sacrifice.”

339

Breakfast: 2 brown toast and marmite and a protein shake

1145: 3 chicken breasts in vegetable rice with pasta sauce

I spent about 5-6 hours yesterday studying and felt like my head was going to explode.

Ended up eating 3 kit-kats I bought for pre workout, 3 chicken thighs, 2 large cookies and a pepperoni pizza.

Then went to the local pub for a few drinks and manage to relax and switch off a bit. Came home and raided my kit kats again (3 or 4 I think) and had 2 pieces of brown toast and marmite.

340

Dude, I am feeling better as of Thurs or so. Had normal energy, so I lifted yesterday. Had a 30 min session…all 15 reps sets with little rest. First training in 2 weeks.

Also, started 100 CJC and 100 GHRP 6 yesterday before dinner time. Then again last night pre bed, and at wake this morning. Excited to see the two work together !
