SLU-PP-332 as an Exercise Mimetic – Dosage, Oral vs Injectable, and Healing Stack Input

ad

I’m currently sidelined from training due to a severe case of triceps tendinitis with a partial tear. It’s significant enough that I can’t lift, but according to my doctor it’s not at the point where surgery is recommended. That’s left me looking for every possible way to maintain progress while supporting recovery.

Right now my protocol includes:
• Retatrutide 8 mg weekly
• Test C 140 mg weekly (1500 total, 350+ free)
• BPC-157 (500 mcg day) + TB-500 (2 mg, 2X - Week)

Given that I can’t train, I’ve been especially interested in SLU-PP-332 as an “exercise mimetic” to help keep metabolism and mitochondrial output higher while I recover.

A few things I’d like to hear from anyone with hands-on experience:
• What dosage are you running (mg/day, once vs split)?
• How long have you been on it, and what have you noticed in terms of results?
• Has anyone actually sourced an injectable form? From what I’ve seen, the published data was oral gavage in mice, and I haven’t seen injectable availability yet.

And lastly, for those who’ve dealt with tendon injuries/partial tears — any input on other healing peptides you’ve had success with would be appreciated.

SLUP is a great compound with a myriad of benefits. Its important to note that it is hydrophobic and using it in a lypholyzed state, reconstituted with bac water will render the compound useless. Best to use capa from a reputable supplier. Even better, powders used with DMSO and applied topically. Trevor Bachmeyer is encylopedic regarding peptides. Yeah, hes a pain in the ass, but he knows his shit

I never heard it talked about as a healing peptide but I had a nagging knee injury for months and was trying BPC, and TB but I didn't notice much improvement if any. I recently wanted to try NAD+ for more energy and maybe it's a coincidence but after a few weeks my knee is basically 100 percent. Also I feel like my recovery has shot way up. Like I have actually been able to slowly ramp up my volume in the gym because all my random aches and pains have been diminishing, and the energy has been up despite being on a cut. Idk maybe the increased mitochondrial function and cellular energy helped my body heal various so called micro-injuries.

Right, I get that SLU-PP-332 isn’t a healing peptide. I’m not looking at it that way. What I’m after is the closest thing to “exercise in a pill (or pin)” to help bridge the gap while I can’t train. Basically something to keep metabolism and mitochondrial activity higher until I’m cleared to lift again. I’ve seen some good feedback on MOTS-c in that regard too, but the cost looks pretty steep.

People talk ab growth being expensive I have no idea how people can afford a legit 8mg a week Reta

There's some sources on here where it's pretty cheap, or at least reasonable. Problem is I think most people dose it quite a bit higher than they need to. 3-4 mg/week is where I'm at.

Petecastiglione's picture

Is that dose working well for ya

Oh yeah. In fact it could probably be lower honestly. I'm pretty well done cutting, but I still have a ton left of the 100 mg kit I got from (the kit place). I was doing 2mg a week and losing 2 lbs a week all the way to my goal.

It really doesn't cut my appetite, so requires some self control. But it's nice smooth, easy weight loss. Allegedly it also helps with lipids as well and I just got done with an anavar run so also part of the reason I'm still on it. I'm sure AF not smart enough to attest to retas lipid effect. Maybe some nerd can chime in.

You do not need 8mg a week Reta, I have been on it 4 months and use 2.5 mg a week and lost 35 lbs.

I need don't need 8mg because 2.5 works for you? Everyone is different man. I lost 60 pounds on Tirz over a year. I started at 2.5 (zero effect) and titrated up to 8.

lucid1014's picture

Yeah same, I was on 15mg of legit Tirz from pharmacy, it basically stopped working. Switched to Reta at 2mg and has had 0 effect. Going up to 4mg this week and also started adding Cagri, starting to feel it I think but don't seem to be losing weight yet. Though I'm not gaining.

AZTimZ's picture

Same here. I was on pharma-grade Tirz 15 mg and it started losing potency around month 11. I switched to Reta and it definitely feels different... way less appetite control for me. I made the mistake of titrating weekly from 2.5 for about a month and basically felt nothing until around 7 mg, then it barely started to kick in.

I was thinking about adding Cagri too. Did you notice a big difference once you layered it in?

Petecastiglione's picture

Tbh Tirz definitely could’ve built up a tolerance even tho it’s a diff compound to a degree, it makes sense to need more Reta imo if you were on Tirz for a year

You are right everyone is different and so is Reta. It is not the same as Tirz and it forces your body to use fat as fuel. You should always start at a low dose and work up. It does take a couple of weeks before you start noticing a difference. I recommend you get on the scale once a week and see how much weight you lose.

Reta isn’t completely different from Tirz, it’s built on the same dual action (GLP-1 + GIP) and just adds glucagon agonism. If you’ve been on Tirz for a while, your body’s already adapted to those first two pathways, so the main “new” effect you’ll notice from Reta comes from the glucagon piece that drives more fat burning. I believe that is whey it took 8MG to feel it.

Aggieguy's picture

What do you mean by "feel" it? How long has it been since you were on it. Reta takes a while to notice anything like a few weeks and it does let you keep some appetite and that's how you can still maintain muscle but it works in the background making your body burn fat. If you have such high tolerance then like anything else you need to stop using the product for a few months.

Feel it’ means the same thing it does for everyone else on GLP-1s, noticeable appetite suppression and changes in satiety. I’ve been on Reta for 4 weeks, so it’s not just about ‘waiting a few weeks.’ Tirz had an immediate effect for me, this hasn’t. Everyone responds differently, but in my case, the usual ‘give it time’ line doesn’t apply.

Aggieguy's picture

Then maybe your product is bogus. I don't know what source you got it from but there is fake reta out there now because it's so popular. Everyone I know who is on reta has seen significant changes and some of them were on tirz and semaglutide before. You are the first person I have heard about that reta isn't working for you. I can share my source if you dm me he also tests every single batch he sends out.

I'm the first to say person you have heard about this? Theres a guy in this thread with the exact same issue: @lucid1014 : "Yeah same, I was on 15mg of legit Tirz from pharmacy, it basically stopped working. Switched to Reta at 2mg and has had 0 effect. Going up to 4mg this week and also started adding Cagri, starting to feel it I think but don't seem to be losing weight yet. Though I'm not gaining."

I don't know man, you two either have fake Reta or you need a long break from it because you used tirz for way too long. It worked hella good for me and a few others I know in person.

Not too bad - I buy 150 mg for $419.

The place you just got like 75,000mg of tess E sells reta for verrrry cheap. 300mg/$300 Roll of the dice if you get it tho...

That’s the thing that’s why I only get test cuz I’m scared of just not getting it I see some guy been waiting a longggg time for tirz kits he didn’t receive

For sure. I think I'm the same as you. I have a cart loaded up ready to go, but if I ever pulled the trigger it would be a bunch of one thing that it wouldn't kill me not to get.

I know i get my Reta, Tesa, Tirz, HCG, GH, Etc in 10 vial Kits 10mg, 12mg, 24mg, 36mg, etc for amazing prices at $90 - $140 depending on the strength MG.All local stateside, 3 day shipping! Can't name the Source other than that they supplied massive quantities under " S##". @Petecastiglione @Milfpounder

Have you checked on them in the last 1-2 weeks? The two "S##" sources I know of that this describes have both gone poof after the latest crack downs in China. Hopefully it isn't one of them, though. One had over $400 million in their wallets at the time too. Crazy stuff

They can’t partial ship if it’s only one thing lol that was my thought process

It can definitely be found for some good prices. I picked up 100mg for $166 recently.

Most of the sources on here it is pretty steep. There are more direct peptide sources around that sell it as low as $1/mg sometimes(these are prices for 10vial kit). The markets for them are a bit shook right now, though. With the crackdowns in the motherland anvil mentioned the other day, a lot of the main factories and the two largest sources are MIA.

How do you like bp157 and tb500? Ive been eyeing those for awhile now. any side effects?

AZTimZ's picture

Seems to be doing the job. No side effects. Doing both sub Q systemic (you don't HAVE to do the BPC local).

Aggieguy's picture

In my opinion SLU-PP-332 is complete trash and not worth the money. I took it for over a month and didn't see any changes 1000mcg a day. The biggest change and by far the king of all peptides was when I started Retatrutide, it has leaned me up so well.

AZTimZ's picture

I was a bit worried about that. Was it oral? I'm wondering if it's the like most oral and just not bio-available. Haven't been able to source liquid.

Growtherino's picture

I've only ever seen SLU as an oral. Never seen anyone who offers injectable or anyone talking about using injectable. I think it may be referenced in some studies, but hasn't made it's way out in that form yet.

AZTimZ's picture

Yeah, same here ..everything I’ve come across has been oral only. I did see those YouTube mentions of injectable, but like you said they never name a source. It's not water soluble and that makes sense too, so if anything existed it would probably have to be in an oil-based carrier. I just haven’t seen any legit supplier actually put it out that way yet.

lucid1014's picture

One of the Chinese vendors started sellingn it in powder form. Unfortunately they are now MIA.

Yes mine was oral as in pills.

Im been taking it for about 3 weeks. Not sure if Im getting much out of it. If I am I don't recognize it which is possible or my mitochondria function is just good to begin with.

sandman3698's picture

I think calling it trash is a little excessive but I do also think people are expecting more out of it than what its going to do. Is it working? Probably. Is it working like how your hoping? Probably not. Is it an over priced way to burn extra calories.... probably.

Its trash man you're not getting anything out of it and your mitochondria function is probably top notch.
