- Cycling approach:
- 8-12 weeks on
- 2-4 weeks off
- Prevents receptor desensitization (theoretical)
- Gives body break
- Many users prefer this
- Continuous use approach:
- No breaks (use indefinitely)
- Some evidence continuous is fine
- GH peptides don't downregulate like exogenous GH
- May be sustainable long-term
- Monitor results and adjust
- Which is better?
- Evidence mixed (both have proponents)
- Cycling more conservative (safer bet)
- Continuous may work for some
- Personal response varies
- Start with cycling, assess
- Signs you might need a break:
- Diminishing results (plateau)
- Side effects increasing
- Feeling "off" or fatigued
- After 12-16 weeks continuous
- Take 4 weeks off, reassess
