- The consistency across models suggests the 10 mcg/kg dose represents a threshold for measurable biomechanical improvement. Higher doses (500 mcg/kg) show enhanced collagen remodeling markers but don't proportionally improve strength outcomes. Suggesting a ceiling effect where additional peptide doesn't translate to better function.
