I'll be running peptides (probably starting in the next 8 months or so when I'm closer to 100 kg), plus some experimental stuff like thumb rolling and bone smashing. Once I hit that lower weight I'll switch into proper money maxxing mode so I can actually afford the real looksmaxing gear and equipment. "
As for diet, I'm on a tight budget right now, so it's basically a 'poor man's' version but still solid nutrition-wise. I'll be eating mostly eggs
Then by month eight, to really start money-maxxing, I'm going to pick up a social job—something where I have to talk to people every day—so I can actually get good at communicating and not be awkward forever. I'll aim for about 20 hours a week, which should bring in roughly $2,000 a month.
On top of that, I'll keep flipping iPhones and other Apple products on the side. I think I can realistically pull in anywhere from $2,000–$3,000 a month from reselling once I get the hang of it. So all up, that's about $4,000–$5,000 coming in each month from those two things alone. Maybe I'll make a little extra from social media here and there, but I'm not counting on it being much at first.
That's basically my money plan sorted for the first year."
100 mcg CJC-1295 + 200 mcg Ipamorelin, pinned subQ 3x a day (morning, post-workout, bedtime on empty stomach).
Why? Multiple studies (like the ones in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism) show this combo spikes natural GH pulses 3-10x baseline without shutting down your own production. The no-DAC version gives me clean, short pulses instead of the constant bleed from DAC. Already noticing better sleep and pumps by week 2. Reconstituting with 2ml BAC water per 5mg vial, so it's easy math on the slin pin.
BPC-157
250 mcg twice a day (morning and night, subQ near whatever I'm training that day — shoulders right now).
Been running this for tendon/ligament recovery because the rat studies and human anecdotal logs show it upregulates VEGF and accelerates healing by like 2-3x. No sides, stomach feels solid too which is a bonus.
TB-500
2.5 mg twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays, subQ in the gut).
Stacked with BPC for systemic recovery — the thymosin beta-4 research out of the NIH basically shows it promotes actin sequestration and faster tissue repair. Loading phase done, now maintenance.
GHK-Cu
1 mg subQ daily + 0.5% topical serum on face/neck twice a day.
This is the skin and collagen one — studies in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences show it boosts collagen synthesis, reduces inflammation, and tightens skin at the gene level. Face looks less puffy already, scars fading. Copper peptide ftw.
MK-677 (oral)
15 mg every night before bed.
Not a peptide but it pairs perfectly — the 24-hour GH/IGF-1 elevation from the ghrelin mimetic studies (Clinical Endocrinology journal) is why I'm throwing it in. Keeps my appetite up for bulking but I'm tracking macros hard so no bloat disaster. But this is in 8 months tell me what you think
