Dihexa Journey — Month 3 Check-In

Month 3 check-in for my Dihexa journey. Quick recap: 35-year-old, recreational athlete, running this primarily for recovery and longevity goals. Month 1 was the adjustment period. Getting used to the routine, dialing in timing and injection technique. Minimal noticeable effects beyond placebo territory. Month 2 is when things got interesting. Sleep metrics improved across the board. HRV started trending upward. Recovery between training sessions shortened. I was hitting PR territory in the gym which I attribute partly to being able to train harder and more frequently. Month 3 has been about maintaining the gains. The dramatic improvement phase seems to be over, replaced by a steady state of enhanced baseline function. I feel notably better than pre-protocol but the week-to-week improvements have leveled off. Interesting observation: I took a long weekend trip in month 2 and missed 3 consecutive doses. Did not notice any immediate decline, which suggests the effects are more cumulative than acute. Resumed dosing when I returned and everything stayed on track. Planning to continue for one more month and then take a 6-week break to see how much of the benefit persists.
