- BPC-157
- Accelerates collagen synthesis, upregulates VEGF and EGF at injury sites
- Tendinopathy, ligament strain, fascia microtrauma
- 250–500 mcg SC once daily
- Post-workout during acute inflammation phase
- Best for soft-tissue injury recurrence. Proven angiogenesis and tissue repair
- TB-500
- Promotes actin polymerization and cell migration, enhances angiogenesis
- Chronic tendon overuse, delayed healing, systemic tissue remodeling
- 2–2.5 mg SC twice weekly
- Evening administration, independent of training
- Complements BPC-157 for athletes with multiple injury sites or slow recovery
- GHRP-6
- Stimulates pituitary GH release, elevates IGF-1, supports mitochondrial biogenesis
- VO2 max plateau, incomplete recovery between sessions, elevated resting HR
- 100–200 mcg SC 2–3x daily
- Fasted state: morning or 90 min post-meal
- Strongest systemic recovery signal. Use during high-volume training blocks
- Ipamorelin
- Selective GH release without ghrelin surge, minimal hunger side effects
- Same as GHRP-6, preferred for athletes managing body composition
- 200–300 mcg SC 2–3x daily
- Fasted state: morning or pre-bed
- Cleaner GH release profile than GHRP-6. Better for lean mass maintenance
- Epitalon
- Influences telomerase activity, circadian regulation, oxidative stress mitigation
- Overtraining syndrome, immune suppression, disrupted sleep during peak volume
- 5–10 mg total over 10-day cycle
- Nightly injections during high-stress mesocycle
- Emerging research. Use sparingly during taper or recovery weeks
