Welcome back, warriors! In this week’s Peptide Q&A, JD Denham and William T. Haas break down real-world questions on endurance training with peptides, NAD optimization, tanning peptides, prostate health, nerve pain, and dialing in fat-loss compounds like SLU-PP-332.

From marathon prep while on TRT and HGH, to troubleshooting AOD stinging, to understanding why some compounds hit people differently this episode is packed with practical insight from years of hands-on experience.

Topics covered in this episode include:

• Marathon Prep on TRT + HGH – optimizing recovery, managing bodyweight, and why 1 IU of HGH may be enough for endurance training

• Free Testosterone vs Total Testosterone – why free T is what actually matters for energy, performance, and sex drive

• NAD vs NMN vs NR – why injecting NAD is more effective than relying on precursors and when (or if) stacking makes sense

• Stacking Multiple Peptides – knowing when you already have “everything covered” and avoiding unnecessary additions

• AOD-9604 Stinging & Mixing Issues – why AA water burns, when bac water works, and how to avoid gelling problems

• Melanotan-1 vs Melanotan-2 – nausea, libido effects, freckles, and how to dose tanning peptides properly

• Do You Need Sun with Melanotan? – differing real-world experiences and how individual response varies

• TRT Decision at Moderate Levels – when to start vs when to hold off if you already feel great

• HGH for Longevity – why low-dose HGH becomes more valuable after 40 for recovery and long-term health

• Prostate Issues & Low Testosterone – slow stream, libido loss, and why TRT + Cialis can be game changers

• Inflammation & Prostate Support – KPV, Thymosin Alpha-1, and managing swelling vs root cause

• SLU-PP-332 Dosing Confusion – why doses are all over the place and how to approach it safely in real-world use

• High vs Moderate SLU Dosing – burnout risk, metabolic effects, and why more isn’t always better

• Peptides for First Responders – recovery, brain support (C-Max/C-Lank), and managing long-term stress load

• IGF-1 LR3 for Muscle Growth – nutrient partitioning, pump benefits, and when to use it strategically

• Back Pain, Disc Injuries & Nerve Damage – why peptides won’t fix structural issues and when surgery is the real solution

• ARA-290 for Nerve Pain – what it may help with and why nerve healing is slow and unpredictable

• MK-677 After Stopping – how long GH levels take to normalize and what to expect post-cycle

• MK-677 & Prolactin – real-world dosing ranges and whether prolactin is actually an issue

• Teen Peptide Use – why growth hormone compounds are not recommended and risks with growth plates

Peptides work best when the foundation is locked in diet, sleep, training consistency, and disciplined protocols.
