- GHRPs (Hexarelin, GHRP-2)
- Acute GH pulse via ghrelin receptor activation
- 60 minutes pre-session
- Short-duration reformer work (45–60 min)
- Collagen synthesis +200–280%, improved muscle endurance
- Best for acute pre-session use. Tight pharmacokinetic window matches short sessions perfectly
- GHRH Analogs (CJC1295)
- Sustained GH elevation 2–4 hours
- 75–90 minutes pre-session
- Extended sessions or multiple daily sessions
- IGF-1 upregulation, sustained anabolic signaling
- Ideal for practitioners doing 90+ minute sessions or AM/PM training blocks
- Dual Agonists (CJC1295/Ipamorelin)
- Rapid onset + sustained duration
- 60–75 minutes pre-session
- Standard 60-minute reformer or mat work
- Peak collagen remodeling + systemic recovery support
- The gold standard. Covers both acute session and post-exercise recovery window
- Metabolic Peptides (Tesofensine)
- Fat oxidation, not GH release
- No acute timing dependency
- N/A. Operates on multi-day timeline
- Indirect energy support, not movement synergy
- Does NOT fit movement timing protocols. Different mechanism entirely
