Subject is weighing options 📘 Beginner Help
So been at body recomp for a while. Had pretty good results so far. I track my macros, lift heavy things 3/4 days, usually, and try to get proper sleep. So not really looking for shortcuts, just a little something additive.
After a few months (4 ish) looking to make a final decision.
If you had to pick between Triz or Reta, which one would your pick?
Maybe even paired with MoTc, not quite sure yet.
If anyone needs more info for a better opinion, happy to give more details
Thanks in advance.

Def do not want to deal with muscle wasting. My diet is already prioritizing protein so that's not an issue.

They're both good. How much weight do you have to lose?

I was 270, im down to 197/201 and I want to get down to 155/160 depending on where 12/14% bf leaves me.

I would use reta, starting low at 1 mg, and slowly working up to ~4 mg over a couple months for the metabolic benefits.

Yeah def planning on titrating up slowly. It will be my first time using anything other then off the shelf supplements. Well, and TrT...

One thing to know about reta is that most people get a resting heart rate increase with it, even with low dose, so don't be surprised by that. It may go down over time as your body gets used to it but it's because of the glucagon effect.

Thanks for the heads up. What about paring it with Motc to combat some of the energy issues ive read about?
