What would you want researchers to measure first in a proper MK677 bodybuilding study: muscle growth, fat loss, strength, or glucose control? I went through a lot of MK677 research for this one, and one thing kept standing out. A lot of these studies are testing MK677 in conditions that are very different from how people interested in performance actually use it. No structured weight training. No specific fat loss phase. No attempt to manage some of the glucose or water retention issues. Then researchers see increases in body weight or lean mass and have to ask how much is actually new tissue versus water. MK677 clearly affects growth hormone and IGF related pathways, but it can also come with increased appetite, water retention, and worse glucose control. That is why context matters so much. My own experience using it while training has looked very different from what some of these studies report, but that is still personal experience and not the same as controlled human evidence. What I really want to see is a properly designed study in resistance trained people measuring actual muscle growth, body fat, glucose markers, strength, and water retention separately.
