A powerful metabolic and GH-enhancing stack for visceral fat loss, lean muscle, and recovery support

Last Update hace un año

Category: Fat Loss / Growth Hormone / Recovery

Primary Benefits

Reduces visceral abdominal fat (especially stubborn midsection fat)

Enhances natural growth hormone release without hormonal disruption

Supports lean muscle retention and improved body composition

Improves sleep quality and tissue recovery

Boosts metabolic rate and energy regulation

Synergistic action for fat-burning, healing, and long-term anti-aging

Mechanism of Action

This stack targets two distinct GH pathways to achieve powerful yet balanced results:

Tesamorelin is a synthetic GHRH analog that stimulates the pituitary to release growth hormone, which in turn promotes lipolysis (fat breakdown), especially targeting visceral fat. It’s FDA-approved for HIV-related abdominal fat reduction, but its utility extends to general metabolic optimization.

Ipamorelin is a gentle GHRP that stimulates GH secretion through the ghrelin receptor. It’s selective and clean — with no impact on appetite or cortisol — and is ideal for recovery, fat loss, and anti-aging.

Together, they deliver complementary GH pulses that promote lean body mass, reduce abdominal fat, and support metabolic health without overstimulation or hormonal imbalance.

Dosing & Protocol

Subcutaneous (SQ) Injection: Inject separately or together once tolerance is assessed. Administer into the lower abdomen.

Tesamorelin – 2mg Vial

Reconstitution: 1.0 ml bacteriostatic water (= 1 mg per 50 units)

Daily Dose: 1 mg (50 units)

Cycle: 6 days on / 1 day off 4–24 weeks

Timing: Before bed, at least 90 minutes after last meal

Ipamorelin – 5mg Vial

Reconstitution: 2.5 ml bacteriostatic water (= 100–200 mcg per 5–10 units)

Daily Dose: 100–200 mcg (5–10 units)

Cycle: 5 days on / 2 days off 6–12 weeks on, 2–4 weeks off

Timing: Take before bedtime with Tesamorelin on an empty stomach

Potential Side Effects

Mild injection site irritation

Water retention, bloating, or flushing (typically temporary)

Occasional tingling in extremities or joint stiffness (rare)

No appetite stimulation or cortisol spikes

Elevated IGF-1 if overdosed on Tesamorelin

Who Is This Stack For?

Individuals targeting stubborn abdominal or visceral fat

Adults seeking safe GH stimulation for improved metabolic and recovery function

Biohackers and professionals looking for a body recomposition stack with clinical backing

Users experiencing GH decline symptoms: poor sleep, low energy, slow recovery

Those aiming to improve metabolic rate, insulin sensitivity, and muscle tone

Notes

Both peptides can be taken together at night in the same syringe

Reconstituted vials should be refrigerated and used within 30–45 days

Do not eat for 90–120 minutes prior to dosing for optimal effect

Best results seen over 12–24 weeks, especially for visceral fat reduction

Consider adding light resistance training and caloric moderation for maximum benefit
