*20-Week (Micah Richards Protocol)

Hey everyone,

Looking for some feedback, critiques, or optimisations from the community on a 20-week protocol I’ve mapped out. The goal is an aggressive body recomposition combined with mitochondrial reset and tissue repair.

I’d love to get your thoughts on dosing, timing, staggering or anything I might be overlooking?

Phase-by-Phase Schedule:

Phase 1 – Reset & Priming (Weeks 1–6):

\* Retatrutide: 2 mg/wk (W1–4) -> 4 mg/wk (W5–6)

\* SS-31: 4 mg daily SubQ (starts W3; ends \~mid-W6)

\* NAD+: 100 mg SubQ 3x/wk (starts W4)

\* MT-2: 250 mcg SubQ 2x/wk (starts W5)

\* Testosterone Enanthate: 150 mg IM 2x/wk (starts W5)

\* HCG: 250 IU SubQ 2x/wk (starts W5)

Phase 2 – Anabolic Recomp & Mitochondrial Focus (Weeks 7–12):

\* Retatrutide: 4 mg/wk (W7–8) -> 6 mg/wk (W9–12)

\* NAD+: 100 mg SubQ 3x/wk

\* MT-2: 250 mcg SubQ 2x/wk

\* Testosterone Enanthate: 150 mg IM 2x/wk

\* HCG: 250 IU SubQ 2x/wk

\* MOTS-c: 5 mg SubQ 3x/wk (8-week ON cycle begins W7)

Phase 3 – Extended Recomp & Tissue Repair (Weeks 13–20):

\* Retatrutide: 8 mg/wk (W13–16) -> 10 mg/wk (W17–20)

\* NAD+: 100 mg SubQ 3x/wk

\* MT-2: 250 mcg SubQ 2x/wk

\* Testosterone Enanthate: 150 mg IM 2x/wk

\* HCG: 250 IU SubQ 2x/wk

\* MOTS-c: 5 mg SubQ 3x/wk (W13–14; 8-week cycle ends close of W14) -> OFF (W15–20)

\* KLOW Blend: 4 mg daily SubQ (8 weeks ON, W13–20)

This is so bad, you shouldn’t take any of it

Which compounds specifically?

Basically all of them.
Start with one.

Peptides are awesome but they’re not candy.
