Working out and Ozempic

[Necrosis]

My training partner swears  by selegiline combined with phenylethylamine, he says you don't  get hungry and your energy levels through the roof all day long. The two have a synergistic effect and don't work standalone, needs to be combined.

ya its a stimulant and a mao-b inhibitor, it could be dangerous but dose dependent.\

Mots-c looks interesting.

Just heard today the three side effects are diarrhea, hair loss and depression.

Sounds like Hankins.

That's why it works so well for weight loss. You shit out everything you eat immediately.

I realize I've never read anything (even here that I can recall) about people who work out with weights and take Ozempic or those weight  loss semiglutides/GLP1s or whatever called.  I hear people are losing lots of weight, sure, because it craters appetite.  But I haven't seen anything about people taking this and working out and how that affects them.  Cutting out the slop is one thing, but just not eating much is another. I'd assume strength is plummeting because strength follows weight to a good degree, also similarly losing lots of muscle mass.

Maybe the reason I don't hear is because people who work out aren't doing much of this and do it the old fashioned way knowing what will happen.

Why don't you just take GH instead of Ozempic? Ozempic is harmful to your health, while GH is only beneficial!

Selegeline was pushed by Dr Colgan in MD magazine back in the day. Said he thought it would increase test by 10%, whether that's worth anything (probably not). Problem for some is it makes you test positive for amphetamines through tiny conversion in the body. Hadn't heard of potentiating it with other things, maybe it's great. I think more people might want to try bromantane for a dopamine boost and energy.

People skipping the Zempic to gorge on Thanksgiving.  From the WSJ:

"“I was the one bringing the crazy dish” to family Thanksgivings, says Donnelly-Boylen, 52, an associate law-school dean living in Boston who has lost about 125 pounds on Mounjaro.

Now, he will cut out the maple syrup and brown sugar he added to sweet potatoes. For dessert, he will whip up a healthy pumpkin cheesecake made of high-protein muffin mix and low-fat cottage cheese.

The GLP-1 drugs work by suppressing appetite and making people feel full sooner. Many users stay away from greasy, creamy and sweet foods because they can exacerbate side effects such as nausea.

The drugs are given as weekly shots. Both their efficacy and side effects can wane as the days go by until the next shot. That knowledge has led to strategies—which GLP-1 patients have been discussing in internet chat rooms and on social-media sites—to skip or delay doses to maximize appetites for the feast.

“It’s almost like I’m training—the opposite of how an athlete would train,” says Langer, 47, a founder of a public relations agency. “I’m training so that I can eat more on Thanksgiving.”

Are bodybuilders taking this drug?

Are bodybuilders taking this drug?

I’m sure they are. They take rat poison to lose weight I’m pretty sure they will take a doctor prescribed drug.

Interesting that we've not really heard any stories about bodybuilders taking it

Many bodybuilders including pros are using GLP"s. Nick Walker is big on retatrutide.

Nick Walker is big on retatrutide.

Yet Nick is not big enough to sit on an adult toilet without his feet dangling!

Yeah I know, wouldn't want to try to 'force' someone like that either. I think in the US many "clinics" pair GLP-1 drugs with "HRT " I also read that gym chains sell paired gym memberships with Ozempic consult as package deal. Which isn't scamming anyone IMO, but I'd bet some gyms add a hormone panel on top so they can sell some anabolics too The GLP drugs aren't innocuous either, like we have the pancreatitis risk which is a very serious thing which I know very well personally. But they just figure if a doc writes a script it must be generally safe.

My bro is getting 2 10mg bottles of this. He weighs like 280lbs and claims to eat 1800 cals a day. I told him he would lose weight automatically, no need to count calories, which he's absolute shit at doing obviously. Fucking guy is 61 and been lifting since his early teens, juicing almost as long, but he still can't even estimate calories. I told him that by my estimation he is taking in 5-6K cals most days. He got all mad, "I'm not fucking dumb!" Yes, yes you are; I didn't tell him that, just dropped it before we ended our friendship I would get on Reta or even Tirza for some of the "health benefits" at microdose but the pancreatitis is worrisome, it's almost damn near killed me or at least feels that way.

Can you write a bit more on the pancreatitis? What caused it? Were there any warning signs if so what were they?

Anyone’s thoughts on Tesofensine?

As US MUSCLE said, it seems every bodybuilder is on retatrutide now. Even in the off-season. For health benefits. They are developing glp-1 combos with anabolics focusing on IGF-1 I think, so you won't lose muscle, as always happens otherwise unless on bodybuilding drugs. These are apparently already on the black market but too expensive for the common man, plus there's concerns about serious side effects.

In the works, for example:

"NA 931 is a quadruple agonist—meaning it simultaneously targets GLP 1, GIP, glucagon, and IGF 1 receptors. This multi-pathway approach is a significant advancement over first-generation GLP 1-only agents."
