Body Composition / Muscle Building
Also known as: muscle building, body composition, body recomp, lean mass, muscle gain, hypertrophy, recomposition, bulking, lean bulk, anabolic
Key considerations
- GH secretagogues support body composition primarily through improved recovery, sleep quality, and fat metabolism — they are not anabolic steroids
- Realistic expectations: GH peptides may help you gain 2-5 lbs of lean mass and lose 3-8 lbs of fat over 3-6 months with proper training and nutrition
- MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that enhances exercise capacity and metabolic flexibility, supporting both performance and body composition
- SLU-PP-332 is a novel exercise mimetic that activates ERR pathways — early research suggests it may enhance endurance and metabolic adaptations
- Combining GH peptides with adequate protein (1g/lb), progressive resistance training, and quality sleep maximizes body composition results

Common questions
- Can GH peptides help me build muscle without steroids?
- What results can I realistically expect from CJC/Ipamorelin for body composition?
- Should I take GH peptides before or after workouts?
- How do MOTS-c and SLU-PP-332 support muscle and performance?
- Can I stack GH peptides with creatine and other supplements?
