Endurance / Athletic Performance Protocol

Goal

Improve aerobic/endurance capacity and recovery — peptides augment training, they don’t replace it.

Provenance & doping note

Research/educational only. WADA-banned for tested athletes: MOTS-C, Cardarine, BPC-157, TB-500, and GH secretagogues. Not for competition.

Why it synergises (three layers)

• Peptides: MOTS-C (endurance/slow-twitch + mitochondrial — best taken 30 min pre-aerobic), Hexarelin (clean morning energy/endurance GH pulse), BPC-157+TB-500 for recovery between sessions. (Cardarine is a non-peptide endurance booster but was scrapped for an animal cancer signal — see Cardarine.)
• Supplements: NAD, CoQ10 (mitochondrial support).
• Behaviors (the actual stimulus): Zone 2 Cardio base + Endurance Training + HIIT; Sauna (cardiovascular/heat adaptation); Sleep Hygiene.

Timing & intake

• MOTS-C 30 min pre-aerobic; hexarelin AM; BPC/TB on recovery days; behaviors are the program.

Cautions

• [warning] Doping bans (above); MOTS-C homocysteine/folate caution; don’t use peptides to skip training (you lose the systemic benefits of aerobic exercise).

Evidence backing

• MOTS-C; recovery: BPC/TB4.

Monitoring

• Performance metrics; for MOTS-C, homocysteine/folate.
