The Bodybuilder Program
The complete physique protocol — the GH-axis and repair foundation, the anabolic-support layer built around IGF-1 LR3, and the full stage-prep build for conditioning and gut health.
Bodybuilding asks two contradictory things of a body: grow, and stay lean enough to show it. This program works both sides the peptide way — restore and amplify your own growth signaling, protect the tissue that heavy volume grinds, and handle the conditioning and gut realities of eating like it's a job. (Coming from the steroid world? Read the honest comparison first — this is a different tool with a different aftermath.)
The Foundation — everyone starts here
- CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin (blend) — 200 mcg pre-bed, fasted. The core anabolic-support move: your own GH pulse restored to its 25-year-old amplitude — recovery, sleep depth, and body composition, from YOUR pituitary.
- BPC-157 + TB-500 (blend) — 500 mcg daily. Heavy progressive overload is controlled tendon abuse; the repair floor is what keeps the joints matching the muscles' ambition.
- NAD+ — 100 mg daily. Hypertrophy is an energy project — training, digestion, and repair all bill the same account.
The Anabolic-Support Layer
- IGF-1 LR3 — 40 mcg on training days, post-session. The most direct growth-signal compound in the library — the advanced leg, often scaled to body size (see profile), earned after the foundation is boringly consistent.
- MOTS-c — 2.5 mg, 3× weekly. Nutrient partitioning: insulin sensitivity that pushes calories toward muscle instead of the midsection — the difference between a bulk and a blur.
- Tesamorelin — 1.5 mg daily. The visceral-fat specialist — the deep midsection fat that ruins a vacuum pose is its exact trial-proven target.
The Stage-Prep Build
- AOD-9604 — 400 mcg fasted mornings. Cut-phase lipolysis without appetite suppression — you still have to eat to hold muscle.
- KPV — 400 mcg daily. Force-feeding 4,000 calories is a gut-lining stress test; the inflammation leg keeps digestion working like the training depends on it, because it does.
- DSIP — 200 mcg pre-bed. Growth happens asleep. Prep-brain insomnia is the classic way a peak week falls apart.
- Glutathione — 400 mg, 3× weekly. The oxidative exhaust of big volume and big food.

The GH-axis leg works on a months timescale — run 12–16 weeks before judging, which conveniently matches an off-season block or a full prep. The Supply Builder sizes either in one order.
Tested federation? Natural bodybuilding organizations (WNBF, OCB, INBA) test against WADA-style lists and several compounds here are prohibited at all times — If You Compete first, no exceptions.
For the women on stage
Bikini, wellness, figure — the program runs identically at Standard tier, and the physique categories where women dominate are exactly where the GH-axis sleep-skin-composition trio pays. The Women's Athlete Program is the tuned companion.
Research protocols, not a prescription — talk to a physician before touching anything.
Compounds in this program
CJC-1295 (no DAC)
A growth-hormone-releasing-hormone analog that prompts your pituitary to release its own GH in natural pulses — almost always paired with Ipamorelin.
Ipamorelin
The cleanest of the GH secretagogues — triggers a growth-hormone pulse without meaningfully raising hunger or cortisol. CJC-1295's standard partner.
BPC-157
The most-discussed recovery peptide — studied for tendon, ligament, muscle, and gut repair. The usual first compound for anyone training hard with nagging injuries.
TB-500
BPC-157's usual partner — studied for flexibility, tissue repair, and reducing inflammation across the whole body rather than one site.
NAD+
Not technically a peptide — the cellular energy coenzyme itself, injected to restore levels that fall ~50% between youth and middle age. The longevity-circuit staple.
IGF-1 LR3
A long-acting version of the body's primary growth signal — the compound experienced researchers graduate to once the GH-axis pair has done its work.
Tesamorelin
The most clinically proven GHRH analog — an FDA-approved drug (for HIV-related belly fat) that research circles study for visceral fat specifically.
MOTS-c
The "exercise in a vial" research peptide — encoded in mitochondrial DNA, studied for insulin sensitivity, endurance, and metabolic flexibility.
DSIP
The sleep peptide — studied since the 1970s for deepening slow-wave sleep, which is where every other kind of recovery actually happens.
Glutathione
The body's own master antioxidant — a tripeptide on every IV-therapy and med-spa menu, studied for detoxification, recovery, and oxidative stress.
AOD-9604
The fat-loss fragment — the tail end of growth hormone that keeps the fat-burning signal and drops everything else. No appetite suppression, no GLP-1 stomach.
KPV
A three-amino-acid fragment of a natural anti-inflammatory hormone — studied for gut inflammation, skin conditions, and calming an over-active immune response.
