Biohacking
Seven changes over the last few weeks — carbs back, heavier iron, 4x creatine, daily cardio, double Retatrutide, fixed sleep, and real socializing again. Each helped on its own. Stacked, they compounded into a system that runs better than it ever has.

I wanted ultracode as my Claude Code default. I reached for "effortLevel": "ultracode" in settings.json — it silently did nothing. Here's what ultracode actually is, the only three ways to turn it on, and the config that actually sticks.
Biohacking
A real night of my own Oura sleep, what the stages actually do, the honest version of Why We Sleep, and the only method that works: debug one variable at a time until your nights are dialed.
Biohacking
I shot BPC-157 straight into the shoulder I'd been dragging for months — fracture, surgery, heavy bar — and a week later the pain was just gone. Here's the mechanism, and every reason one pain-free week might be lying to me.
Biohacking
Most “Wagyu” you’ve eaten was a markup, not a marbling grade. What the real thing actually is — the genetics, the A5 grading nobody explains properly, the fat science a biohacker should care about — and where I finally found it in Colombia.
Biohacking
I walked in a deep-tissue zealot — give me elbows, give me pain, dig out the knots. She barely pressed, and an hour vanished like five minutes. The strongest medicine in the room was the gentlest pair of hands.
Biohacking
Two changes this week: where the repair peptides actually go, and the step-up month two was already asking for. The body and the calendar both talk back.
Biohacking
NAD+ is the compound I can't feel and pay the most for — and I run it anyway. What it is, where the human longevity evidence is real and where it's still a promissory note, the slow-push that kills the flush, and why the most expensive line in my stack buys the slowest payoff to verify.
Biohacking
Most people inject growth hormone. This stack makes your own body release it — CJC-1295 is the signal, Ipamorelin the trigger. The mechanism, the one-minute warmth, my pre-bed dose and CBD sleep ritual, and the real question: when do you graduate to real HGH, and how do you do it smart?
Biohacking
Retatrutide hits three receptors and makes semaglutide and tirzepatide look like the warm-up act. The mechanism, the trial numbers, my dose and where I'm taking it next — and the one thing nobody warns you about: it works so well you'll stop eating protein and drinking water, and burn muscle.
Biohacking
TRT is the floor. Blast and cruise is what you do when the floor isn't enough — without the crashes. Sit at a maintenance dose, push to a supraphysiological one for a window, then drop back and hold. Where the line is, the timing, the ancillary stack, and the 250mg I aim for from a 100mg base.
Biohacking
BPC-157 and TB-500 — the "Wolverine Stack" — get sold as a comic-book healing serum. The reality is more useful: two repair peptides that keep you training when your tendons want to quit. What they do, what the evidence actually shows, and the bodybuilding reframe most write-ups miss.
