Here’s a targeted MOTS-c dosing protocol for

Endurance enhancement + fat loss

based on preclinical data, anecdotal reports from biohackers/athletes, and mitochondrial research.

MOTS-c Protocol for Endurance & Fat Loss

Dosage & Frequency

– Example Schedules:

Fat Loss Focus

5 mg, 2x/week** (e.g., Monday/Thursday) *fasted AM or post-workout*.
Endurance Focus:
7–10 mg/week with **1 dose pre-long workout** (e.g., 3–5 mg 30–60 min before cardio).

Timing for Max Benefits

– For Fat Loss:** Inject **fasted in the morning (enhances AMPK activation, fatty acid oxidation).
– For Endurance: Dose **pre-workout (improves mitochondrial efficiency during exercise).
– Avoid late-day dosing (theoretical risk of slight energy disruption due to metabolic shifts).

Stacking for Synergy

– With Cardio: Aerobic exercise (zone 2 training, cycling, swimming) amplifies MOTS-c’s mitochondrial effects.

With Other Peptides:

– Tesamorelin (for fat loss) – Take MOTS-c AM, Tesamorelin PM.

– AOD9604 (fat metabolism) – Alternate days with MOTS-c.

– BPC-157** (recovery) – Post-workout.

Expected Results Timeline

– 1–2 Weeks: Increased workout stamina, reduced post-exercise fatigue.

– 3–4 Weeks: Noticeable fat loss (especially visceral fat), improved recovery.
– *6+ Weeks: Enhanced aerobic capacity (VO2 max improvements in some users).

Cycling & Safety

– Cycle Length: 6–8 weeks on, 4 weeks off (to prevent receptor desensitization).

– Lab Monitoring: Check fasting glucose, lipids, and inflammatory markers pre/post-cycle.
– Side Effects: Rare (minor injection-site irritation reported).
