Hey, since I don’t have any guides on this account I’ll make my first one simple and easy.

It’s a very simple overview of various types of roids and peptides for anyone to understand (highly recommend DNR if you have any knowledge about it, it’s that simple.)

Anyway if you're serious about taking your physique to the next level, steroids (aka roids duh) are one of the most powerful tools in the game. They can help you pack on serious muscle, get that hard, vascular look, and boost your strength. But they’re not magic, you need to understand what you’re doing to avoid wrecking your health and messing up your gains. Let’s break down everything you need to know in a very simple way so even Iqlet monkeys can understand.


What Are Steroids?


- Basically synthetic testosterone duh, the hormone that makes men muscular, confident, and chads (in most cases..)

- Used medically for hormone deficiencies, but many guys use them to get that physique you’ll get retards telling you “Mirin boyo 🤤

- When used smartly, they can help you look leaner, harder, and more vascular. Used poorly, they can destroy your health.. so don’t be stupid.



How Do Steroids Work for Looksmaxx?



- They massively ramp up protein synthesis, helping your muscles grow faster.

- Increase nitrogen retention, keeping muscles fuller and harder.

- Speed up recovery so you can train more often and harder.

- Also, they can make you look more vascular, cut up, and give that “hard look”





The Main Types of Steroids


Injectable Steroids (Realistically better)



- Testosterone Enanthate / Cypionate:
Your base; helps with overall size, strength, and a good start off.

- Trenbolone: The king of cutting and bulking; super potent and vascular.

- Deca-Durabolin (Nandrolone): Great for size and joint health, but can bloat.

- Primobolan: Lean gains, minimal water retention. (To my knowledge very hard to get real primo ATM)

- Boldenone (Equipoise): Vascular, steady gains, great for cutting.



Orals (but harsher on your liver)



- Dianabol: Massive strength and size gains, but water retention and bloat.

- Anadrol: Similar to Dianabol, very strong, lots of water retention.

- Winstrol (Stanozolol): Hardening, cutting, vascularity.

- Anavar: The “mild” one, good for leaning out while staying hard.

- Turinabol: Similar to Dianabol but cleaner, less bloat.



Which ones for what?



- Bulking: Dianabol, Deca, Testosterone, Anadrol.

- Cutting: Winstrol, Anavar, Primobolan, Tren.

or how you like it.. do research.



Why Use Steroids?



- for the gains and smv boyo (still won’t compete with a Ltbs SMV 😂)



The Risks (serious shit homies)



Short-term side effects:



- Acne, oily skin.

- Mood swings, aggression.

- Water bloat.

- Hair thinning (if genetically predisposed).

- Suppressed natural testosterone.



Long-term risks:



- Hormonal imbalances.

- Gynecomastia (“man boobs”).

- Liver strain (especially with orals).

- Heart issues (bad cholesterol, high blood pressure).

- Wrecked testicles, infertility.

- Psychological dependence.



Bottom line: roids are goated but as once said by spidercels uncle with great power comes great responsibility




Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT), Can’t forget this.



After a cycle, your natural testosterone production crashes. To keep your gains and avoid losing everything, you need PCT.



- Common drugs: Nolvadex (tamoxifen), Clomid.

- PCT usually lasts 4-6 weeks. (But depends on your bloodwork too.)

- Helps your body restore test levels (though note you’ll most likely float around your original test level maybe a bit lower.. only way to know is through bloodwork), keep gains, and avoid gyno.



Simple guide for a cycle.


- don’t be a retard.

- Cycle length: 12-16 weeks. (Some people run it to 20 weeks but I think it’s pointless.)

- Stack smart: combine steroids that work well together.

- Support your health: liver protectants, AI’s, blood pressure meds if needed.

- Get bloodwork: monitor cholesterol, liver, kidneys.

- Post-cycle: plan your PCT to keep gains.



Now for the peptide part, which I’ll provide for in depth info about as I have more experience with them than roids.



What Are Peptides?



- Short chains of amino acids linked together.

- Naturally occur in the body, regulating hormones, immune function, skin, and more.

- Synthesized for medical, athletic, and aesthetic purposes.



Major Categories of Peptides



A. Anti-Aging and Metabolic Compounds

B. Weight Management and Metabolism

C. Growth Hormone and Muscle Support

D. Healing, Skin, and Immune Support

E. Cognitive and Neurological Peptides

F. Other Compounds

G. Libido and Sexual Function


Alright boyos let’s get started.

A. Anti-Aging and Metabolic Compounds

5-AMINO-1MQ


Description: Small, synthetic molecule; selective inhibitor of the enzyme
nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT is involved in cellular
metabolism and energy regulation, and its elevated activity is linked to conditions
like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers.

Potential Benefits:
Increases NAD+ Levels.
Enhances Fat Metabolism.
Improves Insulin Sensitivity.
Supports Muscle Health.
Activates SIRT1 ("longevity gene").
Potential Anti-Cancer Properties.
Anti-Inflammatory Effects.

Research Application:
Oral: 50 mg three times daily with meals for weight loss, with a one-month
break every two months.
Injectable: 35-70mg once daily or split in two doses.

AOD-9604

Description: Synthetic peptide derived from a fragment of human growth hormone
(hGH), specifically amino acids 177-191. Developed as an anti-obesity drug to
promote fat loss by mimicking the fat-burning properties of hGH without its other
effects.

Mechanism/Benefits: Works by stimulating lipolysis (the breakdown of fats) and
inhibiting lipogenesis (the formation of new fat). Targets adipose tissue, enhancing
fat metabolism. May also support joint and cartilage health.

Research Application (Injectable):
Typical dosages range from
200-300 mcg per day, administered via subcutaneous injection, often once daily in
the morning on an empty stomach.

BAM-15

Description: Mitochondrial protonophore uncoupler, a compound that disrupts the mitochondrial proton gradient to increase energy expenditure without producing ATP. Unlike older uncouplers like DNP, BAM15 is less toxic, doesn't depolarize the plasma membrane, and has a short half-life.

Potential Benefits: Obesity, Diabetes, Kidney Injury, Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease, Sepsis.

Research Application: 15mg-30mg on an empty stomach on training days.

EPITALON

Description: Synthetic tetrapeptide with the amino acid sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It is designed to mimic the effects of epithalamin, a natural peptide produced by the pineal gland.

Mechanism/Benefits: Believed to stimulate telomerase activity, which may help maintain or lengthen telomeres. May enhance pineal gland function, influencing melatonin production and circadian rhythms.

Potential benefits: Anti-Aging, Improved Sleep, Immune Support, and Potential Anti-Tumor Effects.

Research application:
Low Dose: 1–2 mg/day
Moderate Dose: 3–5 mg/day
High Dose: 5–10 mg/day.

NAD+

Description: Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme found in all living cells, essential for energy production, DNA repair, and cell signaling. NAD+ levels decline with age.

Mechanism/Benefits: Acts as an electron carrier in metabolic processes. Supports sirtuins and PARP enzymes for DNA repair.

Research Application (Injectable):
Starting: 25 mg daily for 1–2weeks
Maintenance: 50 mg daily
Higher Doses: 100–150mg daily or 100 mg twice weekly.

NMN

Description: Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN), a precursor to NAD+.

Potential Benefits: Boosting NAD+ may support anti-aging, energy metabolism, and cellular health. Could suppress age-related weight gain, enhance energy metabolism, physical activity, insulin sensitivity, and eye function. May improve heart health and cognitive performance.

Research Application: Single doses up to 500mg have been well tolerated. NMN is considered safe in doses up to 1250mg in healthy adults.


MOTS-C

Description: Small peptide (16-amino-acid) encoded by the mitochondrial genome.

Mechanism/Benefits: Enhances insulin sensitivity, promotes glucose uptake, and improves energy metabolism. Activates the AMPK pathway. Mimics some effects of exercise.
May protect against age-related diseases.

Research application:
5mg every 5 days.

SS-31

Potential Benefits: Kidney Diseases, Cardiovascular Diseases, Neurodegenerative Disorders, and Age-Related Conditions (improves exercise tolerance, muscle mass, and fatigue resistance).

Research Application (Injectable):
1-10mg daily is common.

B. Weight Management and Metabolism (take notes fellow bloatcels..)

I’ll be skipping some as most just suppress appetite, and I’m getting tired.


RETATRUTIDE

Description: Triple agonist targeting the GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon (GCGR) receptors.

Mechanism/Benefits: Triple-receptor action aims to enhance weight loss, glycemic control, and metabolic health. A major benefit is muscle preservation.

Research Application (Injectable, Once Weekly - Standard Escalated Dosing) but it really depends on YOU and how you tolerate it.

WEEKS 1-4
1-2mg, preferably start at 0.5/1mg and titrate to 2mg by the 4th injection.
(Unless you adapt too fast, BUT DON’T RUSH IT.)

WEEKS 5-8
2.5-4mg, same protocol, just titrate but don’t rush, if you feel the effects are good, STAY ON YOUR CURRENT DOSAGE.

WEEKS 9+
4-6mg, this is usually the sweet spot after a long time of using it, there is no need to go over this unless you’re a fucking TANK full of fat. You should probably go volunteer to be researched on you’ll get free Reta like that fat kid I keep seeing on Instagram.

TIRZEPATIDE
While not as good as Reta, it’s not horrible.
And a good substitute if your body doesn’t react well to Reta.


Description: Dual agonist for GIP and GLP-1 receptors.

Mechanism/Benefits: Stimulates insulin release, reduces glucagon, slows gastric emptying, and suppresses appetite.

Research Application (Injectable, Once Weekly - Escalated Dosing):

•STANDARD PROTOCOL•
You may need more or less, research and test yourself.

WEEKS 1-4
2.5mg weekly

WEEKS 5-8
5mg weekly

Mechanism/Benefits: Stimulates the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (GH) in a pulsatile manner.

Research Application (Injectable, 1-3 times daily):
Common dosing is 100-300mcg per injection, I recommend 300 x2 and 100mg x1.

CJC-1295 NO DAC + IPAMORELIN (Stack)
Realistically best peptide stack for retaining lean mass (possibly gaining some) and losing fat simultaneously.

Description: A combination of CJC-1295 (GHRH) and Ipamorelin (GHRP) to enhance GH release synergistically.

Mechanism/Benefits: CJC-1295 amplifies the GH pulse, while Ipamorelin triggers it, supporting muscle growth, fat loss, recovery, sleep quality, and anti-aging effects.

Research Application (Injectable, 1-3 times daily):
Common dosing is 100-300mcg per injection.
I recommend weeks 1-2 pin 300mcg before bed, then after that start pinning before bed once and before training once (both 300mcg), preferably fasted.
Advanced users report using upright of 700mcg to 900mcg (total dosage).
ATP use hgh jfl bruh

CJC-1295 W DAC

Description: Synthetic peptide that acts as a GHRH analog with a Drug Affinity Complex (DAC).

Mechanism/Benefits: The DAC extends its half-life to ≈ 6–8 days, allowing for 1–2 weekly injections and promoting sustained GH release.

Research Application (Injectable, Weekly/Twice Weekly):
Common doses are 1000-2000mcg per week, so 500-1000mcg per injection.

IGF-1 LR3
As you probably heard, it is the best peptide for muscle growth, but the ROI isn’t that nice.. and the hype is about the pretty good pumps from it more so than actual results. (HGH terramogs.)

Description: Synthetic analog of IGF-1, modified with an extended amino acid chain (Long R3) to increase its half-life and potency.

Mechanism/Benefits: Stimulates muscle growth (hypertrophy), supports tissue repair, and enhances protein synthesis.

Research Application (Injectable, Once Daily):
I recommend using 20-40mcg if you will fearmonger and are a beginner
if you’re more advanced 50-100mcg daily is the way to go, but with that comes increased side effects (which are only really a concern if you’re a retard and run the cycle for too long.)
TAKEN POST WORKOUT DAILY.

IPAMORELIN

Description: Synthetic peptide classified as a growth hormone secretagogue.
Mimics the action of ghrelin.

Mechanism/Benefits: Selectively stimulates GH release without significantly affecting cortisol or prolactin levels.

Research Application (Injectable, Daily/Multiple Daily):

THAT’S IT BROCELS

It was quite fun making this, haven’t made something like this in a very long time, I hope you guys find it useful and if you have any questions just tell me I’ll answer to the best of knowledge.
Sorry about the roids being rushed I’m still new to them and I just wrote off the research I’ve done and certain compounds I’ve used, maybe in the future I’ll make a better one just for roids.
With that being said this is all based off personal research and use, before attempting to use anything be rational, logical, and importantly not a retard. Do your own research and be careful as this is NOT medical advice.
Best of luck boyos.
