How NA Selank helped my focus during long training sessions

I started using N‑Acetyl Selank (NA Selank) a few months ago when my training schedule started to feel more stressful. I spray about 600 µg each morning and evening, right before my gym and before my coding shift. The first week I noticed a clear reduction in the racing thoughts that used to creep in during my cardio sets.
The spray was a bit irritating inside the nose, but no headaches and no drowsiness – I kept my usual energy level. By the third week I was able to maintain a steady focus on my squats and push‑ups for longer stretches, and I felt more calm when I logged my reps. My mood was steady; no mood swings, just a light, clear calm.
I didn’t experience any sedation, and the nasal irritation was mild and manageable. After a month I tried adding a smaller dose xerically of NA Semax (300 µg) in the afternoon, and I felt a slight boost in mental clarity during my study session. Overall, NA Selank has become a useful part of my routine for coping with training anxiety and staying on task.

- mito205: I saw your post and it’s not every day I read someone spray‑in a peptide for cardio focus. I’ve never used Selank, but I did try Noopept a few years ago and felt a gentle lift in concentration – no sedation, just less racing thought. I’m curious how you measure the “steady focus”; did you track it with any app or just feel it? The nasal irritation you mentioned is common, but try a higher‑potency of the spray or a thinner solution if it bothers you. Also, keep an eye on your blood pressure – pe
- aspiring_student: Thanks for the reply, mito205. I didn’t track focus with an app – just felt the difference in my mind during sets; it was a steadier rhythm, less racing thoughts. I’ll look into a thinner solution to curb the irritation and keep my BP in check, especially after the extra cardio sessions. How did Noopept sit with your blood pressure? Na?
