I am interested to know what people think about how best to run recovery peptides (such as BPC157, TB500, Copper peptide). In isolation, in a stack or in series?
I can see it might be appeal, if training heavily, to have a bit of recovery aid going on in the background. So one could, for example, run BPC 157 one month, TB 500 the next. However, I can also see that different recovery peptides will up regulate some of the same things. This could leave to some receptors being on perma blast if one ran through the recovery peptides in series? This would go against the principles of cycling.
I am wondering if the answer for injury is not a recovery peptide stack at a pretty big dose slowly tapering try to enhance the natural reaction) but for general recovery enhancement in training I am not sure how well one can get more than a month on, month off approach. But what do you guys think? Do some of you "perma blast" peptides with success?
Below is a table of the effect of copper peptide on gene stimulation and suppression. There is a lot going on with just one peptide, to run another afterwards will have an effect, to even run another in parallel is likely to cause some clashes.
