Peptides For a Cut, Collagen Synthesis, and Possible Muscle Gains

Hi. I’m new here. I’ve never used AAS,& I don’t plan to until I’m 25 so this thread is about peptides.

What’s your take on them?

I’m 18 years old; A younger & less experienced lifter currently on Jason Blaha’s novice 5x5. My main lifts are around the intermediate benchmark on strstd.com. I went from 312-205lbs standing at 6’2. I have about 21-25 pounds of fat until 10% bf, which is when I will start my first bulk. I’ve got my diet in order, no medical conditions, & the excess cash to buy the supplies. I’m still under my parents’ roof and they are fine with me pinning myself 6 times a day with peptides.

People say peptides are good for cutting and that they have ‘collagen enhancing properties’ that could help with my lab rat’s loose skin on my abdomen and arms possibly – but it’s not that loose. And of course, maybe I will put on some mass or add some weight to my stalling lifts.

I realize peptides are a fraction of what AAS can do, but I’m not looking for massive gains on a cut. If it will aid in muscle preservation/gain on a cut, fat loss, and tightening loose skin, then it sounds perfect for me at almost any rate of progress the peptides will bring.

The cost of everything is $350 give or take. It would be about $100 more to put the MOD GRF 1-29 at 100mcg 3x ED up from 50mcg 3x ED. Money isn’t a big issue.

-First(and possibly only) cycle to assess the effectiveness-

Weeks 1-8 GHRP2: 100mcg 3x ED
MOD GRF 1-29 (GHRH): 50mcg 3x ED

Dosing scheme: Morning/Post-WO/Bed

Pros:
Legal
No PCT
Will not shut down hpta or natural testosterone
Enhances collagen synthesis
Extremely cheap compared to loose skin surgery ($30,000+)

Cons:
Relatively expensive to AAS(which I was looking into, then decided not to)
Relatively weak to AAS

Correct me if I’m wrong, but peptides don’t bring up any substantial risks like AAS do – especially for young people.

Thanks for any (possible) answers and advice.

Going to bed now. Hoping that I can get some answers for the loose skin thing. That’s all I’m really after, but of course fat loss and muscle gains are always a + :wink:

Your proposed pep run is good. That is the exact way i do it. Ghrp 2 and grf dosed 3 times per day at the dosages you plan. You don’t need 6 pokes…just 3. Mix and shoot sub q immediately. Don’t eat any carbs for 30 minutes post inject. You may notice better sleep and improved skin appearance quickly…but for fat loss and making significant changes you need to run peps a long time. I’m not sure if it will really help loose skin all that much. Surgery generally seems to be the only option that really satisfies folks who have lost 100 pounds plus…from what ive seen.

Thanks.

I don’t have that much loose skin… Just a bit on my abdomen. I took 16 months to lose it & I’m 18 currently so that’s why.

I ordered the peptides, alc swabs, bac water, and syringes. If anyone is interested, I can post the results in 9 weeks or so. Just before and after pictures.

this is an interesting post, as you have a very specific purpose for this… good luck! i’d like to hear how it turns out…

oh, and congrats on your weight loss!
