Weeks 14: Improved sleep quality (often the first and most consistent effect) Enhanced recovery between training sessions Some users report mild water retention initially Weeks 48: Noticeable changes in body composition lean mass up, fat down (most pronounced in visceral and subcutaneous fat) Skin quality improvements (GH and IGF-1 drive collagen synthesis) Faster soft tissue recovery from training or injury Weeks 816: Sustained lean mass gains Fat loss continues, particularly around the abdomen Anti-aging markers: joint comfort, skin elasticity, energy levels Important calibration: GH peptides won't produce results like supraphysiological anabolic compounds
