@BowTiedUM @AbudBakri I just cannot get anyone to offer a basic dosage and protocol - any tips?

Life without pinealon is a handicap Every time I take some time off and start again Colors get brighter Motivation and mood skyrocket Go from dragging my feet to speed running life This is what it's supposed to be

@BerbarianWizard What about almond or oat milk?

You can literally go almost unlimited on these two and still lose weight, high volume and satiety from potatoes, high potassium (better fluid balance, less water retention), low fat and high calcium from skim milk (good calcium-phosphorus balance), highly bioavailable protein, complementary amino acid profiles, easy digestion, and strong micronutrient density for performance… etc.

If I were on a budget and had to keep just two foods to optimize a cut while still performing in the gym, I’d keep these two: skim milk and potatoes.

@BerbarianWizard Jamal - do you offer consultations?

10 years of fat loss trial and error went into this. This is the most complete guide I’ve written on how fat loss actually works. Part 1 focuses on nutrition, Part 2 and 3 are coming. The article is free. Read it properly. berbarianwizard.substack.com/p/beyond-calor…

@BerbarianWizard One thing that seems to be missing from your summary (which is v helpful thank you) is how many warm up sets? Do you think about fatiguing the muscle at all prior to the working set or just oiling the joints?

It’s the result of those retarded bodybuilding programs built around 4 sets per exercise and 10 exercises per session. If intensity is high enough, you can’t reproduce the same performance on the next set. Real effort drops your output fast. If you can keep repeating the same numbers, you’re still far from failure, which is what actually triggers muscle growth. That’s why workouts rarely need to last more than ~45 minutes when intensity is real. I learned this the hard way. I trained 10+ years, often 2 hours a day, 6x a week, thinking I was hitting failure. Then I trained with a powerlifter friend (former French bench press champion and European vice-champion) and it hurt my ego, I was actually about 6 reps away from true failure ! Strength training isn’t endurance cardio (running, cycling, etc.) where more time means more stimulus. Muscle growth comes from high mechanical tension and recruiting high-threshold motor units, which happens as you approach failure. A few very hard sets often produce more stimulus than many low-effort ones. I explain how to design an efficient workout in detail in this free guide (Chapter 4): berbarianwizard.substack.com/p/beyond-calor…

@Theholisticpsyc One challenge for you: a partner can go through tough times, when they can’t be all the things you say here. It’s difficult to know what is temporary vs permanent state.

The real reason relationships end is because no one wants to parent their partner. That's how respect and attraction is lost. Here's what you expect from a partner:

@mihai_vie @AdvancedForged @PGC1a_RB I’m still lost on its relevance. How does the person know he requires mitochondrial peptides from his bloodwork?

@AdvancedForged @PGC1a_RB I’m referring to the guy who doesn’t even know what he’s trying to fix. no idea if he even has a problem in the first place. no baseline, no way to tell if anything he’s taking is even working. I couldve worded better

Piece of advice. It’s wise to spend $150 on a blood panel before dropping $300 on random supps and peptides. Shooting in the dark is a huge waste of time & money

@afneil Andrew - he is clearly responding to a hypothetical on whether we would fire upon a target if we reasonably believed we were about to be attacked. I don’t think it’s unreasonable for him to guide to an answer of “yes”.

I really think he’s just making it up as he goes along. Are we really going to consider taking out Iranian missiles sites? That would effectively join us with Israel and the US in their attacks on Iran. Does he really mean that? And with what would we attack them? PS to this former foreign secretary — Cyprus is not in NATO. Ask the Turks.

@cremieuxrecueil Except only part of the problem was maintaining muscle during fat loss. The other part of the problem was having any muscle in the first place.

Eli Lilly just showed that you can lose tons of fat while barely losing any muscle using their activin type-II receptor inhibitor, bimagrumab. We are approaching a golden era of weight loss, where everyone can easily be muscular and skinny. Prepare for hordes of hot Americans.

@asparagoid It's ok. I was previously fat and always forgot valentine's day. No I'm skinny and always forget valentine's day.

We initially thought GLP-1s like Ozempic, Tirzapeptide and Retatutride just reduced food cravings. Now, we know they work for alcohol, cocaine, gambling and other addictions too But do you know what runs on exactly the same circuit? Falling in love GLP-1 receptors sit in the exact same brain regions that light up when you’re in love The insane thing about them is that they don’t just suppress appetite. They suppress wanting in general, including romantic craving another person Something like 60M+ people are now on anti-desire drugs and it happened in the blink of an eye I predict in the coming years, we will see people on these drugs be less able to fall in love. We will also see them fall out of love, or be unable to feel it, in relationships that were previously great If your girlfriend or boyfriend started taking GLP1s and your relationship started failing, there’s a good chance that’s why

@GaintrustMikey It has taken me 20 years to understand that I need to take the time to build up to 1-2 hard working sets per exercise, and that requires adequate rest between sets and not messing around with supersets etc

“It takes me 30-45 min to get my workouts done” Yeah, we can usually tell. Unless you look like a pro bodybuilder, you’ll likely get more out of more time in the gym. The best reason for shorter workouts is merit. Be good at training HARD and you’ll need less. Can’t arbitrarily lift less and expect better results.

@AntiDoc @aidannonx Can someone please explain protocol AFTER taking it ? Important to get full body UV exposure? How much/When?

Pretty hard to beat as far as bang for your buck. Tanning is boring, being tan is very high ROI. Very low dose for just a few weeks like you said doesn’t worry me in the slightest. I’ve run 500mcg daily for a long time, multiple times and I know plenty of others that have too. No issues as of yet.

For those w experience on melanotan 2 I was thinking about using a moderate dose and using the tanning bed for a short period of time. Thoughts on safety? Skin cancer?

@michaelxbloch Real Assets going to pop in value is my bet

This is one of the most underrated observations in tech right now. if AI commoditizes software, what's actually safe? - regulated and liability-bearing businesses (someone has to be on the hook) - anything touching the physical world (hardware, manufacturing, energy) - proprietary data sets (AI makes your data more valuable, not less) - marketplaces and businesses with network effects (liquidity > software) - operationally intense businesses (the "bad" businesses become the best ones) - cybersecurity and physical security (more AI = more attack surface)

@MsMelChen It will also blow your mind that “pants” can also be used to describe something pretty awful. “This movie is pants” etc.

I only just learned that when Brits say “pants” they don’t actually mean pants. They mean underwear. Why they don’t specify the “under” part, we will never know. But they invented the language so we have to bite our tongue. Every American transplant to the UK has a funny or embarrassing story of when and how they learned of this

@crankybulb1 @SergeiT16 @drmarlonperalta I thought Reta outperformed it, no?

I wonder what it is about Tirz and Sema that have stronger appetite suppressant effects Reta (for some people).

@SergeiT16 @drmarlonperalta I’m struggling to understand why weight loss performance isn’t correlated with the strongest appetite suppression? Does the Glucagon component overwhelm the relative lack of appetite suppression?

@drmarlonperalta Reta is a glucagon biased GLP, mazdutide is a glucagon biased GLP, survodutide is GLP biased GLP. tirzepetide is GLP biased GLP. Components are the same, but proportion is different. Reta has lower appetite suppresion, period. Cagrilinitide has the highest. Not 'for some people'

@AbudBakri Adding a bit of a plea: any idea whether there would be any peptides that help with RLS?

Add a CD38 inhibitor like apigenin or quercetin and now you’re in business

@AntiDoc How do you use MT2 if can’t get UV exposure on body naturally? Quick sun bed?

My top 5 most used peptides this past year: 1. Glow—daily. Life changing is hyperbolic, but everything looks better and joints feel indestructible 2. Growth hormone—gains, fat loss, skin hair and nails improvement + immense synergy with glow These are by far the top two as myself and lady doc both run through tons of them. 3. Hcg—keep the boys on, maintain fertility, neurosteroid production, cognition, mood, energy, blasting ropes, etc… 4. Retatrutide—the best drug to hit the market since exogenous Testosterone. Effortless fat loss, immense improvements in metabolic health, blood markers significantly better, and even improved gains via enhanced nutrient partitioning. Plus, synergy and mitigation of growth hormone side effects. Magic. 5. Melanotan 2—before looks-maxxing we just called it jacked and tan. This gives you the tan. Plus, a libido and erection quality that will scare you. It’s simply ridiculous. Good for men, good for women, good for looking good. My favorite peptide for a very very long time now. Combine with gh and glow for an easy +1-2 points on rhe 1-10 scale.

@BowTiedHRT @CrtfdSprvlln What sort of dose for nerve compression / damage in scapula area?

@CrtfdSprvlln Dose dependent and fast. You’re not going to heal overnight, but if you push it heavy, you will heal like you’ve never healed before.

How fast does the relief from BPC-157/TB4(500) kick in? Is it instant? Day? Week?

@Savsays @BillAckman I just don’t see it. He had plenty time to step out the way of this. If he had time to pull his gun out and shoot through the front windscreen he had time to sidestep a few feet. She clearly was steering away from them.

To anyone trying to say that ICE wasn’t fully within their rights to shoot this driver Here she is CLEARLY trying to run over the ICE agent with her vehicle For months the violent left has been trying to use their cars to ram, block & kill ICE agents

@upRootNutrition @hubermanlab Ha ha 👍

@kscot75 @hubermanlab That wouldn't surprise me, the guy is a proverbial exploding volcano of nonsense.

As much as I dislike the woke left, there are just some dimensions of retardation that the woke right seems to have reserved exclusively for itself, such as diet baboonery that could kill millions of people if acted upon that the scale they're proposing.
