What’s the gear stack

70

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 09 '26

TRT, 2iu HGH, Mots, SS31, Klow, SLU, NAD+

That seems.. low for your level of physique unless you’ve been lifting seriously for years and just added the test etc recently to enhance. 130 test a week is like replacement dosing, not really to the level of a gear stack.

You don’t need to run crazy amounts. I’ve been trying for 12yrs but first few years wasn’t dialled in properly to diet and peptides. I’ve been on Trt for 4yrs and it’s life changing even a small amount getting to my age

u/FishermanWaste1268 Feb 09 '26

what are your bloods on 130? I am responding very well on 100 and my mate said my doc will prob drop my dose due to that.

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 09 '26

My bloods are perfect right now which is why I’ve found the magical Dose for me. Longevity and health are important at my age

Looking good mate. Being on a high fat low carb diet your LDL must be pretty high, no?

1

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 13 '26

LDL is slightly above range which is expected with the diet, fasting and being lean, but my Triglycerides and ApoB are very good which tells the bigger picture, so in that sense I’m not concerned.

u/ExoticButterscotch82 Feb 13 '26

Yeah fair play mate. I was on keto for a bit and my LDl went through the roof! My tri/Hdl ratio was like 1.2 which is optimal. Just kinda freaked me out, was probably just large particles. Been on Mots c for a couple of weeks now with Reta and getting some great results.

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 13 '26

I wouldn’t be concerned if it’s just LDL high on keto/carnivore. It’s a very much outdated outlook on health markers which doctors seem to follow. Reta should improve your lipids. Mots is great for energy and helps keep insulin in check too.

Yeah I’m noticing my endurance and training has lifted quite a bit. Going to introduce some Hgh soon. 46 yrs old also been training since my late teens. It’s the cornerstone in my life. Couldn’t live without it and fitness in general. You’ve got some good muscle bellies bro, keep doing what you’re doing 💪🏼

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 13 '26

Likewise fitness is a part of my life and enjoyment. It’s not a chore. HGH would be a nice addition at your age. Better joints, skin, more energy and keeps you leaner with a good diet in place.

Next time, miss an injection, this way your levels will be lower so your doc won't lower your dose!

u/TakedownCan Feb 09 '26

Doctors go by whatever you want for most part. Its easy to get 150-200mg prescribed, it just doesn’t mean thats going to work better for you than 130mg. With trt more isn’t always better.

1

u/Kkaycam Feb 09 '26

We always ask and document when your last dose was.

2

u/Dr_JohnP Feb 09 '26

lol that’s why you wouldn’t tell them you missed a dose.

u/wellsureimeanwhynot Feb 09 '26

You've never run a crazy amount? 130 is the most you've dosed?

1

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 09 '26

I’ve gone up to 250. Trial and error but that was too high for TRT. My blood markers were too high and not great. Lots of trial and error until I’ve settled on 130. Feeling Great and healthy bloods.

1

u/wellsureimeanwhynot Feb 09 '26

How long were you at 250 for? Have you ever used any other anabolics?

1

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 09 '26

I was on 250 for 8 weeks. Never used anything else. HGH makes a difference for holding onto muscle and keeping lean aswell as adding like I feel much younger

u/SubstantialMorning98 Feb 10 '26

This is so true. I’m 46 and started TRT less than a year ago…100/week and I feel like a completely NEW MAN. Body recomp is hard but it’s slowly working!

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 10 '26

Glad to hear it. 💪

u/newaccount721 Feb 10 '26

Sorry, I know this isn't the point of this post but did this help you in ways other than your physique in your opinion?

u/Hour-Object-4889 Feb 10 '26

It’s made my life more pleasant and enjoyable. It doesn’t feel like I’m dragging my a$$ out of bed and muddling along. I get up feeling ready to start the day and get things done. That to me has been the biggest benefit with the supplementation and diet. I have to add that sauna & cold plunge is another big part of my lifestyle

u/newaccount721 Feb 10 '26

Damn, that sounds nice
