Peptides and Weight Training Synergy Timing Protocol: Compound Comparison

MK 677 (Ibutamoren) 90–120 minutes 120–180 minutes post-dose 4–6 hours sustained Non-peptide ghrelin agonist. Creates baseline GH elevation rather than acute pulse; better for recovery than intra-workout synergy Best for daily dosing to support multi-session t

  • MK 677 (Ibutamoren)
  • 90–120 minutes
  • 120–180 minutes post-dose
  • 4–6 hours sustained
  • Non-peptide ghrelin agonist. Creates baseline GH elevation rather than acute pulse; better for recovery than intra-workout synergy
  • Best for daily dosing to support multi-session training blocks, not acute timing protocols
  • GHRP-2
  • 45–60 minutes
  • 60–90 minutes post-dose
  • Rapid GH pulse initiation; peaks during post-workout anabolic window when dosed pre-training
  • Ideal for single-session acute synergy; requires precise timing
  • CJC1295 Ipamorelin
  • 60–120 minutes post-dose
  • 2–3 hours sustained
  • Dual agonist. Ipamorelin triggers rapid pulse, CJC-1295 sustains it through post-workout receptor upregulation window
  • Best single-compound option for peptides and weight training synergy timing protocol
  • CJC-1295 (no DAC)
  • 90 minutes
  • 3–4 hours sustained
  • GHRH analogue. Slower onset but longer pulse; synergises with GHRP when co-administered
  • Requires longer pre-workout lead time; best combined with GHRP for amplified pulse
  • Hexarelin
  • 30–45 minutes
  • 45–75 minutes post-dose
  • 60–90 minutes
  • Most potent GHRP. Highest GH pulse magnitude but rapid desensitisation with chronic use
  • Use sparingly (2–3×/week max) for high-priority training sessions; rotate with other GHRPs
