three years of interval stretching threads, summarised so you do not have to read them

Discussionbranch of 7 comments

three years of interval stretching threads, summarised so you do not have to read them, and I am aware this is a minority view on this board. Wrote down where I was before changing anything. That single page made the following six months interpretable. Regained most of it over a year and spent that year assuming it…

c/tapering rules
  1. Cite the discontinuation data rather than guessing at regain rates.
  2. No shaming people who restart.
  3. Say how long you were on and at what dose before you tapered.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
