8h ā¢ Muscle Building
š§¬š Day 50 Photo Update šš§¬
Hey everyone! Itās been 50 days on this protocol, and todayās picture update shows some real transformationāespecially over the last 7-8 days. Iāve never looked or felt like this before, but amazing!
Starting from November 7 (left) to December 27 (right), the changes in leanness and muscle definition are finally kicking in strong. Iām dropping fat steadily while holding onto muscle, which is exactly what these peptides aim for.
For context, retatrutide (a GLP-1/GIP/glucagon agonist) has been key hereātrials show it can lead to 15-20% body weight loss over 26 weeks by curbing appetite and boosting metabolism, making calorie deficits easier without extreme hunger. Combined with GH peptides like tesamorelin and hexarelin, which pulse growth hormone to preserve lean mass (studies report 5-10% muscle retention during cuts), itās creating that ārecompā effect where fat melts but strength holds.
If youāre new to peptides, this combo mimics natural hormone signals to optimize body compositionāsafe when monitored, but always start low and get bloodwork.
Iām surprised how lean itās getting meāvisceral fat down, abs emergingābut I want accurate metrics. Planning a DEXA scan soon to confirm body fat (aiming for 10% or less, as research suggests thatās where health benefits peak, like lower inflammation and better insulin sensitivity). Once there, Iāll ease off to maintain.
