MK-677: Ran for a Year? What to expect.

[YamahaC76]

I'm considering running MK-677. This will be stacking with my MK2866. For my next arms cycle in summer, I will be adding in LGD. I have a few questions about MK-677 though I need addressed first, as running anything for a year is a commitment. First, since MK-677 stimulates IGF, can this lead to the carpal tunnel symptoms that you'd get from just taking pure IGF? I read those symptoms are caused because all the IGF production with closed growth plates in the body causes to the wrists to grow, narrowing the pathway of the nerves that run through there, causing permanent impingement.

I also believe you should run MK-677 for a year, I trust that. My question is what do you do once the 365 days are up. Thats a mile stone but I haven't actually seen anything yet on what to do one that year is up. PCT for it? How will running that for a year stimulating IGF production effect you the rest of your life once you are off of it? Or do you just continue to run it the rest of your life? A bit confused in this area, I want to reap it's benefits as I DEFIANTLY need healing properties right now. Hope somebody can help, I defiantly cannot run this if carpal tunnel is a realistic risk, my career involves heavy wrist movements.

I'm going to be completely honest here, I seriously need help, and it's really starting to get to me. I have been trying to get in shape for 2 years now but have struggled with constant chronic injury. Finally I had to get Steroid injections in my back (not cortisol). I'm going to spare all the personal details but it has been a challenging 2 years mentally, and I'm good, but I want to end this cycle of being "out of shape" once and for all, so I can move on in my life. I used to work at 2 gyms, and was incredibly fit until an accident. Not a single day goes by that I don't think of those times because of where I was physically. This is why my posts may seem frantic, I just need answers and wouldn't dare do anything to hurt myself.

In short, the Ostarine is working folks. I wish it was working 3x better than it is, but it's working damn better than nothing at all, BY FAR. I swear, Ill give a full update in 2 weeks. You'll love it. Upcoming Sunday is week 4 of the cycle.

So here is my honest truth. I need my wrists in optimal shape because I actually am a musician that got pretty lucky out here in cali recently, so any risk of carpal tunnel is a huge no to me, and maintaining my wrist health is pretty crucial. Getting in better shape for my near future is a must because there is no way I can do what's coming up without being in decent shape.

So, the sarmsx Healing stack looks pretty damn good for my goals, you all know them now. I tend to spam a lot of non-typical questions because I do things that aren't fairly typical. I understand it's a lot, and this does come across as a "vent" because I know good health is important to this community, and quite frankly, TOO many people around me don't value that. Maybe you can relate if you had a very low point in your fitness career that's your life. Lot's of stuff gets tied to it. Life is a web after all.

Ive been on Mk677 for about 100 days or so? No issues with carpal tunnel.

You seem to have some decent info on the risks, however I don't know if what you found relates to HGH use or MK677 specifically as they are very different.
But so far form my individual experience I have not had any issues with my wrists or carpal tunnel at all.

At 1 year in you drop it for a month or so and start back if you want. No PCT required. You can run it longer than a year, a lot of the clinical trials that we get our info from were done for 2 years I believe.

It sounds like MK677 may benefit you, however for faster acting healing MK2866 is the king.

I hope this helps?

Definitely helps brother, thank you. This is what I'm looking for, just as many testaments and data as possible. This gets me wondering though, if it really is this beneficial, do you just end up running it the rest of your life? That's kind of where my main concern is, is not neccesarily the first year of use, but continuous years, like what the effects are after 10 years. I also don't want to burn my pituitary out, though I reasonably believe that wouldn't occur. Didn't John cena and the Rock use HGH for years? They're fine objectively I guess lol. I feel like the questions I am asking aren't fairly typical, and I like to cover every base possible before moving forward with anything involving my body like this.

MK-677 is not actual HGH bro, and does not carry the same side effects. It is a GH secretogue high just tells your body to produce more of what it already does produce. There are no risks of carpal tunnel or anything like that. You can run it longer than a year, but we just mention to run at least a year to get its full benefits. There is no oct at all for mk677 and when you come off o fit your body just goes back to producing what it would normally instead of more

 

[YamahaC76]

Your questions are difficult to answer.
How long to use it is ultimately a personal preference, and I don't know of any studies showing data on 10 years of use. Now...

What the fuck does John Cena or the Rock using HGH have to do with anything? None of that is related to mk677.

Sorry, let me clarify, I know they're different compounds. The purpose of the comparison was that their prolonged hgh use altered their bone structure on their bodies and in the facial area. Producing more GH over a long period of time can have that, or other adverse effects on the body, so that's what I was getting at. MK-677 Stimulates hormone production, so that's why I brought it up. Sorry if it read weird, I'm still learning.

Thanks Rick, I really appreciate the help. This is what I wanted to know. Do you think this in addition with MK-2866 will aid with chronic injury and prevention of it? I notice the MK-2866 benefits already, but would like to take it to another level at this point. As well as sped up recovery time?

Also, do you still need to run GW after MK-2866 and LGD if you are running MK-677 for the year since it keeps cortisol and prolactin low?

Yes GW should always be part of pct buddy, regardless of using MK-677. On cortisol it won't have the same effect as GW will.

As for your question on MK-2866 it will defnitely help considerably for healing nagging injuries and with recovery. It's actually perfect for that, as is LGD. You could run the MK-2866 and MK-677 combo, or The best thing you could do is just run the healing and recovery stack for that purpose which is optimal

Sounds perfect rick, I'm already on MK-2866 currently, started the first Sunday of march, If I add in LGD now, I continue until week 16 and then do PCT?, but when can I hop back on Ostarine? Or can I run Ostarine for 16 weeks as well? That stuff is really helping me and every day counts at this point in my life right now. If I throw in LGD now, my cycle looks like this, so please advise. I continue using MK-677 in pct right?

1-12 MK-2866 25mg ED dosed once in the AM
4-16 LGD 10mg per day dosed once in the AM
4-12 MK-677 25mg per day dosed once in the AM;

Clomid 50/25/25/25
GW 20mg per day

I do have an issue with chronic injury, and because of this, makes it difficult to keep strength, or really build it up in general.

Yes, that is correct. Run it exactly like you have it laid out. The MK-677 will obviouosly continue after the cycle into pct and beyond that. Once you complete pct, wait 2-3 weeks and you are fine to start MK-2866 or any other sarms you'd like again

The idea of waiting almost 3 months without the Ostarine is a bit much, because I have to wait 3 weeks after PCT, and the osta stops a month before LGD already. MK2866 is really helping me right now, and I NEED the help right now. So I'd like to continue it's benefits. Has anybody inquired about running MK2866 for 16 weeks? I know that coupled with LGD can start to be a bit suppressive, but is it an option to run Osta weeks 12-16 so it ends the same time as LGD? As it stands now, adding LGD throws off the cycle completely. I'm trying to do this right, and efficiently.

LGD sample cycle:
Weeks 1-16 MK2866
Weeks 4-16 LGD
Weeks 1-52 MK677

PCT: Clomid &GW. But...since I ran the Osta longer, would anything change in PCT, or just no to this entirely?


Rest 17-19. Then start again. Can I really not take anything for these 3 weeks? If you can't tell by now, I'm trying to seriously learn lol

This is actually important; I take Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid output as I have bad acid reflux, (I already produce too much stomach acid) which you get from a staple diet of chicken fingers, fries, soda, and xbox in your teens. MK-677 supposedly helps stomach acid production...in terms of ALL it's benefits, this is actually the one I'm worried most about. I do not need more stomach acid production. Shi* hurts. Can somebody help clarify this? Other than that, I'm sold and can't wait to stack with Osta and LGD
