CJC-1295 No DAC Recovery Results Timeline: Comparison by Protocol Type

Injury Recovery Research 200mcg 3x/week (Mon/Wed/Fri) 6–8 hours post-dose, sustained 6–10 days Reduced inflammation markers (CRP, IL-6) by day 7–10; improved tissue healing scores (ultrasound elastography) by day 14–21 4–8 weeks Best application for CJC-1295 n

This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Injury Recovery Research
  • 200mcg 3x/week (Mon/Wed/Fri)
  • 6–8 hours post-dose, sustained 6–10 days
  • Reduced inflammation markers (CRP, IL-6) by day 7–10; improved tissue healing scores (ultrasound elastography) by day 14–21
  • 4–8 weeks
  • Best application for CJC-1295 no DAC. Targets the exact mechanism (IGF-1-mediated tissue repair) the peptide optimises
  • Athletic Performance Enhancement
  • 100mcg 2x/week (pre-bed on heavy training days)
  • 6–8 hours post-dose
  • Reduced DOMS duration (48h → 24–36h) by day 10; strength improvement 3–5% by day 21
  • 8–12 weeks
  • Effective when paired with periodised training; marginal benefit without structured load progression
  • General Recovery Optimization
  • 100mcg 1x/week (maintenance dosing)
  • Subjective sleep quality improvement by day 5–7; minimal measurable body composition change
  • 12+ weeks
  • Suboptimal dosing frequency for most study outcomes. Weekly dosing maintains baseline IGF-1 elevation but insufficient for tissue adaptation
  • Body Recomposition Research
  • 150mcg 3x/week + caloric deficit or surplus
  • Lean mass preservation in deficit (0.5kg over 8 weeks); lean mass gain in surplus (0.8–1.2kg over 8 weeks)
  • 8–16 weeks
  • Requires precise macronutrient tracking; peptide effect is conditional on energy availability and protein intake
