First 4‑HO‑MET experience – how did it alter my recovery?

Posted by aspiring_trailrun in General Discussion - 2 points, 0 comments.

I took 4‑HO‑MET last Sunday after a pretty intense week of trail running. I laced it at 10 mL in a water-based solution, a dose I'd seen floated around in a few forum threads. The effect was gentle, with a warming, almost nostalgic visual overlay that didn’t feel overwhelming.

I didn’t notice a spike in heart rate or feel any nausea, and the emotional warmth lingered for a few hours, easing the muscle tightness I’d been picking at for a few days. I didn’t jump straight into a clean‑out protocol or try to stack it with anything else, just wanted to see if it helped the overall sense of recovery. Anyone else have used it? What dose did you find comfortable, and did you pair it with any other recovery aids?
