What to expect
1 / 4Days 1-7
Most people don't feel anything yet — your body is just starting to absorb it. This is normal.
Week 2-3
Early users often report less pain at the injury site and reduced inflammation.
Week 4-6
The most noticeable healing happens here. Tendon and ligament improvements typically become visible. Many people feel stronger at this stage.
Week 6+
Full protocol effects. Most providers recommend a 2-4 week break at this point before restarting a second cycle.
Individual experiences vary. Results depend on your body, goals, and protocol adherence.
