Is Cheat Day Necessary or Just a Trap?

Peptides are decent for general recovery, not muscle retention IMO

Tried them joints felt better, strength still dipped though

Peptides can make PCT feel easier, but they’re not a replacement

Good joint health comes down to form, recovery, and not overloading too fast

collagen + omega-3s

Strengthening stabilizers around the joint has been a game changer

Consistent stretching and foam rolling made my elbows feel Good

started adding mobility work between sets, joints feel way smoother

Massage gun helps loosen tight spots, ice baths help mentally more than physically IMO

Ice baths are overrated for muscle growth but great for feeling refreshed

Massage gun helps with soreness

Massage gun feels great after long sessions, but nutrition still runs the show

Ice baths help mentally more than physically for me

Tried the BPC‑157 + TB‑500 stack after a shoulder strain pain dropped noticeably

Mobility work and good nutrition. Took longer, but recovery was solid
