+ 3 This stack rebuilds tendons from the inside out - my Shoulder Injury Protocol
I was in the hospital twice for more that 7 days over the summer., Each time for a torn tricep and shoulder injury. Elbow got infected and I was on hardcore IV antibiotics (had a Picc Line at home for 6 weeks). 4 weeks ago I could barley move my arm. Now I am back to light curls, resistance bands and riding my motorcycle again. The doctors were USELESS, other than treating the infection.
This stack rebuilds tendons from the inside out:
BPC-157 + TB-500 trigger local and systemic healing, boosting blood flow and fibroblast activity to lay down new collagen.
HGH + TRT drive IGF-1 and tendon-specific collagen synthesis.
Collagen peptides + gelatin + vitamin C supply the raw amino acids and cofactors to build strong fibers.
Magnesium, D3/K2, zinc, and boron help cross-link and mineralize new tissue, while curcumin, boswellia, and omega-3s control inflammation without slowing repair.
Deep sleep support (glycine, theanine, apigenin) maximize nightly GH release.
This is my protocol:
Morning (after waking / fasted)
• TRT (Testosterone Cypionate) – 20 IU (40 mg) IM or subQ daily
• Retatrutide – once weekly, morning, fasted
• Electrolyte drink – 1 scoop Nutricost Electrolyte Mix in 16 oz water
• Supplements: Multivitamin, NAC + Quercetin, Selenium, Omega-3, D3+K2, Boron
⸻
Pre-Workout / Rehab (30–60 min before loading tendons)
• Gelatin 10 g + Vitamin C 50 mg in warm water
→ triggers collagen synthesis response window
• BPC-157 (1 mg local injection at injury site):
• Inject 1 mg in the left triceps tendon region (lateral/posterior, 1 cm from olecranon)
• Inject 1 mg in the shoulder capsule / anterior deltoid tendon insertion
⸻
Midday (with lunch / post-workout meal)
• Curcumin + Boswellia – 3 caps (anti-inflammatory synergy)
• Magnesium Glycinate – 2 caps (~200 mg)
• Creatine Monohydrate – 5 g
• Perfect Amino (EAA/BCAA) – 10 tabs
• Tart Cherry Extract – 2 caps
⸻
Evening (with dinner)
• Curcumin + Boswellia – 3 caps
• Omega-3 – 2 softgels
• Magnesium Glycinate – 4 caps (~400 mg)
• DIM + Calcium D-Glucarate – 1 cap (E2 CONTROL)
⸻
Night (8 PM, pre-bedtime / recovery stack)
• Sleep Formula (Mag L-Threonate + Apigenin + L-Theanine blend) – 3 caps 30 min before bed
• Glycine powder 3 g (optional in warm water)
• HGH (2.5 IU) – inject subQ 10–15 min after Sleep Formula
• TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4) – 2.5 mg subQ every 4 days
• Combine cycle with BPC-157 for 6–8 weeks.
• Synergy: TB-500 enhances systemic angiogenesis and cellular migration; BPC-157 acts locally for tendon re-anchoring and fibroblast alignment.

So does injecting at the injury site make a big difference with BPC?
A little complicated
That sounds like a very specific approach. I'd add in a beef collagen source if I were you, or even a shark collagen. I've always believed Test C to have really good regeneration qualities. I am taking some off oils for now and trying a low dose HGH combo moving forward. Too many side effects with oils it seems.
I’ll definitely look into those suggestions. I actually just added 12.5 mg Anavar to my routine this morning. From what I’ve read, it can help boost collagen synthesis and connective tissue repair, especially alongside BPC 157, TB 500, and collagen support. We’ll see if it helps.
I made this post a few years back mate - You may get some extra Info from it as a lot of members chimed in with useful suggestions:

I’m definitely over 40 and that post really hits home. Totally agree about collagen loss, lower blood flow, and hormones making recovery slower as we age. The part about hydration and tendon stiffness is spot on too. Staying consistent with training, nutrition, and collagen makes a big difference, great reminder. I'll browse the comments for more info on my lunch break, Thanks!
Everytime I’m injured I send @Gotem69 a nude of his choosing and he gives me the protocol to take care of it.
Bent over butthole pics only
@AZTimZ yea you’ll probably need to spread them too when he ask for that I just use the 3 second timer on my phone
Lmfao I'm dead
I’d send pics, but I’m still waiting for Ranger's "World Class" surgeon’s approval first. Can’t risk another partial tear.
In the meantime, everyone please proceed with caution ...He's already filing a safety report in case someone accidentally heals or laughs without medical supervision.
LMFAOOOOO!!!!!! The guy you need to speak to if you ever get any Rectal Tears or hemorrhaging is our man @Drexyl he's an expert in the area of anything anal crossed with stretching/bleeding ....
There's the elusive rectal roid...
Bro somebody stepped on your bubble gum… no peptides can heal that amount of pegging & toy use.
It comes and goes, it comes out every now and then very angry, then settles down and keeps to herself. Yes, my hemorrhoid is female, an angry bitch!
Good info bro. I don’t think it’s that far fetched that these helped speed up recovery on a partial tear.
I got that new Safety Squat bar on thursday mate, way better than my old one. Absolutely no pressure or awkwardness on the shoulders and the weighting of it makes it feel like a regular squat bar on your back. Doesn't tip you forward on the ascent back up.
i gotta find a comparable one made over here. It was out of stock last time I checked and it ships from somewhere on your side of the pond. I use lifting straps wrapped the bar and hold into those. Idk I you ever tried that before but if so I’m curious how it compares? I’m pretty happy with how well it works.
I've never actually even thought of trying that before!! lol I guess it will work though - the bar comes from Highland Scotland, I am sure they ship to the States but I guess it will cost ya and take a while. I've seen ones over there made by Powerlifting gyms - I am sure Dave Tates makes one. Elite FTS
Ranger3252@Greg can we have this post removed before it really hurts somebody in the future? From someone who has gone through the surgical procedures from torn muscles tendons this is absolutely unacceptable. Let’s put the proper precautions and protocols posted on our forums please.
People here literally post experimental cycles and self-run protocols every day... isn’t that what this forum is built on? I posted this because it worked for me and maybe it could help someone else. It’s in the Supplements section because the focus was on the nutritional and supplemental support that enhanced the peptide effects and overall tissue repair. I also give the readers here a lot more credit than you.. they can read the facts and decide for themselves, just like they do with every other post on this forum.
The title and content are accurate; it documents a high-grade partial tear recovery, not some DIY tendon reattachment. I shared my experience responsibly and clarified everything clearly.
If that still offends you, your ego might need more rehab than my tendon ever did.
Also if you introduce healing peptides to soon after surgery creates scar tissue to fast and prolongs the healing process one month after surgery is the soonest.
I do appreciate his protocol though.
Good point. I actually mentioned somewhere in the comments that these peptides didn’t work for me in the past... likely because I ran them too soon and didn’t have proper supplement or macro support in place (which was the whole point of my post, and why I shared it under Supplements). I didn’t have surgery, but I waited until my infection and inflammation markers confirmed the infection had cleared before starting this protocol.
Ranger3252You can’t repair a torn muscle tendon without surgery, what a ridiculous post. I’m sure my world renowned surgeon who repaired both of my torn biceps would surely used have used your genius method before surgically repairing these. What’s next professional athletes receiving this lol. So fucking ridicostupid.
anvilThis is what I first said, its hype while BPC and Tb500 are modern day miracles they are not repairing a torn tendon. "Torn tricep" is what is described as the injury here and clearly would not be repaired with a surgery. Even peptide enthusiasts will tell you this. While I didn't downvote this "opinion piece" it will mislead people to thing they can heal a torn tendon which Vigorous Steve bans people for asking in his QNA and I answer often on live QNA and in my group.
I hear you, and I agree that full ruptures need surgery. My case was a high-grade partial tear, and much of what I used came from Steve’s videos on tendon and connective tissue support. I experimented with many of his suggestions and shared what actually worked for me. The post was meant to add to that discussion, not mislead anyone.
Ranger3252Exactly the point I was trying to make with the OP. You’re 100% spot on with your comment @anvil. It’s going to confuse someone who is really hurt and might take this guys post literally and cause more harm to one’s self..
Thanks for the down-vote! Your world-renowned surgeon didn’t use this approach because, unfortunately, he can’t. Licensed physicians are bound by strict regulations and can only use therapies backed by FDA-approved human trials.
Since there are no human trials on these regenerative peptides, their hands are tied. Ironically, the lack of human studies doesn’t prove something can’t be done; it only proves no one’s been allowed to formally test it yet. Declaring that you can’t repair a torn tendon without surgery isn’t science, it’s simply confidence without evidence, which is the very definition of ignorance.
For context, multiple animal studies in rats, rabbits, and equines have demonstrated complete tendon regeneration, even after full severance, using these same peptides and growth-factor pathways. So if anything, biology is already ahead of surgical convention.
And sincerely, congratulations on being able to afford a world-renowned surgeon. Some of us had to rely on physiology, biochemistry, and resourcefulness instead of a platinum insurance plan.
My post wasn’t a miracle claim; it was simply a documented recovery that challenges the idea of impossible. The human body doesn’t read medical textbooks; it just responds to the right inputs.
You’re entitled to your opinion, of course. Facts, however, don’t require your permission to exist.
Ranger3252It’s horseshit and horrible advice for anyone with a torn muscle. You need surgical intervention to have a full recovery. It’s basic medical knowledge. You can’t take a pill to reattach a torn muscle tendon from the bone. Dear lord guy. It has to be surgically reattached to the bone. The only thing your “stack” can do is help with the recovery process after SURGERY! It’s not an opinion it factual information.
You’re still missing the point entirely.
It’s obvious you didn’t actually read what my injury was. I never said a full detachment magically reattaches itself. My case was a high-grade partial tear, confirmed by imaging, that healed without surgery, something completely possible when fibroblast activity, angiogenesis, and collagen synthesis are properly supported.
Yes, complete avulsions need surgical fixation. But claiming all tendon tears require surgery is simply false. Even orthopedic journals recognize non-operative recovery in partial-thickness tears when inflammation and healing pathways are optimized.
The peptides and cofactors I mentioned don’t reattach anything; they accelerate regeneration and strengthen existing fibers. That’s been shown repeatedly in controlled studies on rats, rabbits, and horses.
Surgery will always have its role, but dismissing every other mechanism of recovery doesn’t make you correct.
Ranger3252Sounds like you had a minor grade tear which the body will do the work on its own. You need to change the title to your thread to minimal tear of tendon. This stack helped me recover from a tiny baby tear. It’s a very confusing title to a thread. Some poor kid on here is reading this and going to try your method with a full detachment smh.
⸻
It wasn’t a “tiny baby tear.” It was a high-grade partial triceps tear with bursitis and adhesive capsulitis, confirmed by MRI, requiring 15 days in the hospital and follow-up IV antibiotics. The infection prevented surgical repair, which is why this protocol was used.
The title is accurate, the context is clear, and it never claimed to repair a full rupture. My post simply shows that a serious partial tear can heal without surgery when recovery pathways are supported properly.
I won’t be replying further, given your inability to comprehend what’s already been explained.
anvilYou should send this in to NIH. There has been 0 studies to show human repair of a torn tendon. Plenty of animal studies to show in rats and rabbits it does some of these things (no torn tendon repairing) .
"BPC-157 + TB-500 trigger local and systemic healing, boosting blood flow and fibroblast activity to lay down new collagen." In animals.
I am huge on these peptides but "hype" is what this post is. Post surgery, this stuff is a life saver. Healing "torn tendons" isn't gonna happen.
Well, there was no surgery, but it seems to have actually healed the High-grade triceps tendinopathy with partial-thickness tear at the olecranon insertion; surrounding bursitis. (no complete rupture) ... and the Adhesive capsulitis , capsular thickening, decreased subacromial space at the rotator cuff.
The infection was a blessing in disguise because they refused to repair the tricep tear with surgery. The reason that surgery did not happen is the infection.
I'm not trying to hype anything though In fact I have never had measurable success with these peptides previously. I think what made the difference is I researched the hell out of how assist the peptides in the healing process using the supplements to add to my nutrition, ultimately providing the "building blocks" to make it work.
Ultimately, the success of this treatment will have to be confirmed with Imaging, but I'd be happy to send this in to the NIH, but I don't know how or what that is. Can you provide that?
Great Information Mate
That's really helpful and informative protocol to heal injuries that lasted from so long.
