Older guy stack

I'm 51. I'm on Tirz plus Reta and I really like the combination. I've seen a clear difference and the pounds are coming off steadily. I'd like to reach a six-pack and think this stack can get me there. No food noise at all. I hit the gym at least five days, lifting and walking, and I enjoy watching my wife work out too. I also use Glow, Semax/Selank, and TRT and feel great on this mix. After reading a lot of reports I want to try MotC, SS31, and NAD next. I'll probably pause the Semax/Selank for a month to test the new set. I'm keeping Tesa though, because Tirz with Tesa works really well for me.

It depends on your overall metabolic health and other factors. If you're feeling sluggish, a round of ss-31 and Mots-c could help, or you could move to Reta from Tirz or simply add 500-1000 mcg of Reta on top of your current Tirz. Without more details on your health numbers, any extra suggestions would just be guessing.

Search for the mitochondrial protocol. I'm planning to run it from time to time. CJC plus IPA is another good option, and so is GHK-CU.

What blood work should I be asking for?

51M here. My take: Reta at 2.5 mg per week dropped me 20 lb in three months and took body fat from 27 % to 18 %. I just went up to 4 mg after a two-week plateau. KLOW blend at 2.5 mg GHK-Cu plus 0.5 mg each of KPV, BPC157, and TB500 daily healed a knee injury after three vials. CJC/Ipa at 250 mcg each twice a day for a month gave great sleep. I focus heavily on sleep for recovery and energy; my routine starts at 10 pm. CJC/Ipa helped me fall asleep fast. I stopped it and began HGH this week because it's supposed to be better for older users. IGF-1 was tested before the change. I'm tempted by SS31 and MOTS-c but tired of so many injections.

I wouldn't switch from Tirz to Reta if you're already doing well and only need another 10 lb. Reta sides probably won't help the fatigue. You probably don't need many extra peptides either, though it's enjoyable to try. HGH and Test will give the biggest return, especially with bloodwork. You can likely get TRT prescribed now. Healing peptides like BPC-157, TB4, KPV, and GHK-Cu are also worth considering. Cognitive ones like Epitalon, Semax, Pinealon are interesting too, but most extras end up like random supplements. TRT, HGH, and your current GLP-1 are the main tools, so get those right first.

I was tested about three years ago and had moderate to severe apnea. They put me on wegovy and I lost weight, but insurance stopped covering it and most of the weight returned. I started compound Tirz five months ago and the weight has come down nicely. I figure the extra weight was causing most of the apnea.

I'm older than you, so I'll call myself an expert on older-guy issues. I'm on a low 1.5 mg Tirz dose. In about ten days, once I finish SS-31, I'll add MOTS-c and Ipamorelin. Tirz alone probably won't handle the last ten pounds of stubborn fat. Beyond that, diet and exercise are what matter most and you already have that covered. I'm also thinking about low-dose Enclomiphene or some form of TRT again because it worked before. Exogenous TRT gives better body-composition results than anything else legal.

I was just breaking the blend down into the individual milligrams per dose, nothing extra.

I'm around 60. TRT helped a lot but I got bloodwork and studied it first. Estradiol can be an issue if BMI is still high, so I waited until I reached normal BMI. The NAD-MOTS-SS31 combination plus supplements seemed useful. Much of the fatigue can come from low calories, so increasing protein helps energy. Focus on mitochondrial support, supplements, and diet until BMI improves, though many start TRT or secretagogues earlier. These can raise scale weight slightly while improving composition. First step is bloodwork. My energy supplement cycle, after reviewing suggestions, landed on SS-31 at 5 mg for five days, building NAD first and using TMG with NAD or NAC. SS-31 should make MOTS-c work better. Read Dr. Seeds and similar sources.

I'm pretty busy with this stuff.
