Body weight-based dosing (alternative approach):

Some prefer dosing by weight at 2-6 mcg/kg:

150 lbs (68kg):

• Low: 136mcg (2 mcg/kg)

• Medium: 340mcg (5 mcg/kg)

• High: 408mcg (6 mcg/kg)

180 lbs (82kg):

• Low: 164mcg (2 mcg/kg)

• Medium: 410mcg (5 mcg/kg)

• High: 492mcg (6 mcg/kg)

200 lbs (91kg):

• Low: 182mcg (2 mcg/kg)

• Medium: 455mcg (5 mcg/kg)

• High: 546mcg (6 mcg/kg)

Most people use fixed dosing (250-500mcg) rather than weight-based. Both work.

Cycling recommendations:

8 weeks on, 2 weeks off:

• Prevents receptor desensitization

• Maintains effectiveness

• Most common approach

12 weeks on, 4 weeks off:

• Extended protocol for stubborn fat

• Higher total fat loss

• Risk of diminishing returns

Continuous use (not recommended):

• Some use 3-6 months straight

• Effectiveness decreases over time

• Better to cycle for sustained results
