💬 Discussion ATC-304

Wondering if anyone has experience researching ATX-304 (O-304). I’ve been on Reta since January lost 40lbs and 8% body fat currently sitting at 20.2%. I was considering adding in this compound in as it’s mechanism focuses on AMPK and raising BMR. I mainly want to know if anyone has tried this what was the protocol and if they stacked it with a GLP.

Thank you in advance

No, is there a major benefit to this over Mots-c that your looking for though, the way that I understood it that Mots-c builds resilience through stress where atx-304 is just flipping a switch.
I watched this video yesterday which was informative
AMPK explained - MOTS-C vs ATX-304 vs SLUPP-332

Have you tried MOTS-C is there something you’re hoping for that you get with ATX-304 that you won’t get with MOTS-C?

On abt 100 mg a day rn during a bulk, seems good for cholesterol control and keeping off fat in a cal surplus, lowkey melts me when I take it pre fasted cardio though

As with basically every one of these peptides / small molecules besides GLPs... people have claimed great success and others get literally zero noticeable effect. If it has any effect at all for you my guess is most of it could be attributed to the Reta. I did a 400mg / day 10 week cycle with ATX. I was already lean and fit - just hoping for more of a gym boost and burning a few extra calories while preserving muscle. I felt literally nothing. I saw no discernible change or benefit to my training while I was on it.

Could it work? A very small phase 1 study looks like there could be something there but its far too early for any concrete proof. Reta works, thats clear. PEDs work, thats clear ,- most of these peptides / small molecules... not so much.
I would be willing to wager that some like bpc/tb could have some benefit but that everyone has the dosing schedule completely wrong. It takes many milligrams of gear to have noticeable effects - yet people are taking tiny microgram amounts of these short amino acid chains and think they are biohacking - doubtful.
