This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Serum IGF-1 Levels
  • +18–28% above baseline
  • +40–60% above baseline
  • +50–80% above baseline (plateau)
  • IGF-1 rises sharply in week one, plateaus by week 12. Early increase confirms receptor engagement
  • Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT) Reduction
  • 0–2% (not statistically significant)
  • 5–8% reduction via DEXA
  • 12–18% reduction via DEXA
  • Fat loss lags hormonal changes by 3–4 weeks. Week one shows zero visible reduction
  • Sleep Quality (SWS Duration)
  • +12–18 minutes per night
  • +20–30 minutes per night
  • +25–35 minutes per night (stable)
  • Sleep improvements appear within 3–5 nights and plateau by week six
  • Muscle Recovery Time (DOMS)
  • 20–30% reduction in 48-hour soreness
  • 30–40% reduction
  • 35–50% reduction (stable)
  • Recovery timing improves immediately as IGF-1 drives satellite cell activation
  • Lean Body Mass (LBM)
  • +0.2–0.5kg (fluid and glycogen, not muscle)
  • +1–2kg (measurable hypertrophy)
  • +2.5–4kg (sustained anabolism)
  • Week one gains are glycogen and intracellular water. True hypertrophy requires 4+ weeks
  • Skin Thickness (Dermal Collagen)
  • No measurable change
  • Subtle improvement in hydration and elasticity
  • 8–12% increase in dermal thickness via ultrasound
  • Collagen synthesis begins in week one but requires 6–8 weeks to manifest visibly
