Episode Overview

This Q&A-driven episode brings JD and Will back to core listener questions, focusing on optimizing peptide protocols for health, recovery, body composition, and longevity. True to their “no fluff” style, they field nuanced questions from real listeners, offering practical, science-backed advice on topics like testosterone replacement (TRT), healing protocols, peptide stacks for men and women, carrier oils, and peptide reconstitution/storage. The conversation also includes insights on lifestyle, fasting, and even team culture. As always, the hosts keep a direct, unfiltered tone, blending humor, tough love, and deep technical know-how.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Testosterone Replacement & Hormonal Optimization

(Begins: 12:28)

• 32-Year-Old Male, Low Testosterone (369 ng/dL):

  • JD & Will emphasize the importance of a full hormone panel (not just total T).
  • Nuance on “normal” lab ranges: 369 ng/dL is technically normal but “like a 60-year-old’s” (JD, 14:12).
  • Starting TRT ("life-changing") is recommended—“testosterone is the base of everything for a man. Women too.” (JD, 17:09).
  • TRT is NOT a life sentence; you can come off if needed, with proper post-cycle therapy (Will, 20:10).
  • Stack suggestions: Continue MOTS-c and add Tesamorelin (1 mg/night) for synergistic fat loss and GH support.
  • Key Quote:
    JD: “Let’s just call it what it is… test is the base of everything for a man.” (17:09)

• Finding the Right Doctor:
  Importance of seeing a doctor versed in hormone optimization, not just meeting minimums (Will, 19:01).

2. Injury, Recovery, and Wolverine Stack Protocols

(22:08 & 35:19)

• Healing Post Surgery/Wounds:

  • Use high-dose BPC-157, TB-500, and KPV (1 mg each, twice daily for 3 weeks); apply GHK-Cu serum only after wounds close.
  • Avoid multi-ingredient blends initially to allow precise high-dosing during critical healing.

• Arthritis & Chronic Injuries (41M, ex-police):

  • Aggressive local injection with BPC-157 and TB-500 (2 mg each) for 2-3 weeks, then taper for maintenance.
  • Add thymosin alpha-1 for inflammation and possibly epitalon for additional support.
  • For over-40/injured guys: “Add HGH, right under testosterone as the ‘granddaddy’ for healing.” (JD, 38:03–38:56)

3. Body Recomp, Fat Loss, and Longevity (Men & Women)

Various Q&As – see timestamps

• Overweight/Older Male Protocols (26:08 & 29:01):

  • Successes: 20 lbs lost in 2 months with retatrutide, moderate TRT.
  • Diet tips: Cut sugar, seed oils, consider fasting (JD, 26:12).
  • Focus on macronutrients over calorie counting; prioritize protein (Will, 31:16).
  • Option to increase TRT dose for bigger guys and consider adding tesamorelin for belly fat.
  • “The more I study, the more I implement, the more I’m about less is more, and focus on the basics.” (JD, 28:12)

• Female Physique, Mood, & Libido (41:32):

  • Stack: Retatrutide, Kisseptin, 5-Amino-1MQ, AOD, plus “the best GH secretagogue blend: Tesamorelin 10mg/Ipamorelin 3mg for women” (Will, 46:07).
  • For sex drive: PT-141 (Will, 48:05).
  • Skin, energy, anti-aging: GHK-Cu, NAD+.
  • Always start with bloodwork before stacking hormones (JD & Will, 45:40).

• Minimal-Effort Stack for Active, Stressed Moms (54:13):

  • Retatrutide, NAD+ (25–50mg 3x/week), Tesamorelin or Tessa/IPA blend, GHK-Cu, CLO/Glow blend for skin/gut, Sloof tablets for performance, and creatine (JD, 58:23).
  • Supportive lifestyle advice: Prioritize sleep, protein, and weight training.

4. Blended Peptide Dosing & Math

(59:13)

• Will gives a practical breakdown on how to dose from multi-ingredient vials using unit-based math:
  • “Take the total mg of each peptide, divide by number of 10s in your total units of water… now you know what’s in each dose.” (Will, 59:59 onwards)
• Essential to math out blends individually for precise dosing, especially for peptides with different therapeutic windows.

5. Carrier Oils for Testosterone Injections

(66:14)

• Popular Oils: Cottonseed, grapeseed, MCT (Miglyol 840), sesame, castor.
• Hypoallergenic Choice: MCT oils are often best tolerated; always use pharma-grade, highly filtered oils.
• Pain/Reactions: Not just oil but also concentration/solvents (benzyl benzoate, benzyl alcohol) impact injection pain.
  • "Some things like cypionate 300mg/ml way too high, you'll need a ton of solvent, which hurts." (Will, 68:28)
• Esters: Faster esters (like propionate) hurt more.

6. Peptide Storage, Stability, Injector Pen Tips

(76:55)

• Tesamorelin: Use room-temp water to mix, store in a cool, dark—but not cold—location, and use within 30 days for best potency (Will, 78:10).
• Injector Pens: Hold in place up to 30–90 seconds—otherwise, most of the dose may not get absorbed.
• General: Peptides are most stable for 30–60 days post-mixing but often last longer; for sensitive ones (e.g., AOD, NAD), follow special storage tips.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On modern low testosterone:
  “You are living basically as a 60-year-old man. That sucks.”
  — JD Denham (14:12)
• TRT dogma:
  “A lot of people think it’s a life sentence. It’s not… You can absolutely come off!”
  — JD Denham (20:23)
• On blends and dosing math:
  “If anybody says ‘I use this many units,’ that means nothing. You have to know how much water you put in.”
  — Will Haas (65:26)
• On peptide pens:
  “Hold it there for at least 30 seconds—the stuff just slowly drips in… otherwise, basically you’re getting nothing.”
  — Will Haas (75:41)
• Work culture tangent:
  “We love people that don’t say, ‘It’s not my job.’ That’s rare these days.”

Welcome back to the Pep Tide of the week podcast of your host, JD Denham. Like always, my co host, Mr. William T. Ha.

[Will]

Q&A day.

[JD Denham]

What's up with Q A Day?

[Will]

Q A Day. This is the.

[Ad Speaker]

I don't know.

[Will]

This is my favorite one. Other people's favorite toos besides when we have a guest, I always like having talking to people and hearing their some of their point of view, especially if they're really interesting.

[JD Denham]

Most have been.

[Will]

It's been great.

[JD Denham]

Might as well let the cat of the bag. So we got Paul back to y. Obviously a show favorite. He's coming into town to get some dinner with us. So we said, well, let's do a podcast because it's always fun to talk with our buddy. So we'll be recording that on Monday or Thursday. It'll become out on Monday. So we're gonna all think through a cool podcast episode that we can do something cool. Let us have some time. But that'll be fun. Everybody loves Paul. Yeah, I call him a Jedi and

[Will]

we want to do something that will really utilize his skill set. Yeah, you know, something that he is. So there's. And there's a lot. He's got a huge skill set. He knows a lot about everything.

[JD Denham]

He does deep, deep, deep, deep research.

[Will]

So. So yeah, dude, that's exciting. But play the week. I just got back from South Carolina from a wedding and it was supposed to be a long way to go to San Diego. I know it was raining the whole time, but the poor bride is like, you know, between.

[JD Denham]

Was it outside?

[Will]

Between event. It was outside. It did not rain during the weddings. That was cool. So, but like every in between events, like, the whole plan was to, oh, we're just girls will just chill by the pool, go to the beach. And there was really none of that. Luckily it was humid, though. So there was a time where we went to set the pool. Sun's out and then it starts raining on us and run inside. Fifteen minutes later the sun comes back out and just kind of walk back in. And it was, you know, there was a lot of these. Most of the people I don't know, but. Which is always awkward. But then again, I did, I. I knew some of them, had started to know them over the years of dating Ally and because they're all her friends. But the wedding went off perfect. The. The venue of the wedding was gorgeous. It was a golf. It was a golf course in just classic South Carolina with like all the trees with the moss hanging down everywhere.

[JD Denham]

Right.

[Will]

It was gorgeous. It was hot, it was humid. But it was a. It was a beautiful wedding. It was, it was really cool. So it was good. All in all. It was a good, good stay. I guess the hotel, they have, of course, lots of complaints. Like, well, I took a red eye and I flew first class on the way there so we could sleep.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, right.

[Will]

And that was amazing. I don't ever. I've never paid for a first class ticket. They are so expensive and even in

[JD Denham]

the red eye, bro.

[Will]

And I've flown first class one time because when I was younger, I missed my flight, spring break to go to Hawaii, which was going to be a connector flight. Yeah, I missed it. I remember I was like, just, I was hungover. It's like the Burger King. The lady told me, she's like, you missed the flight. And this spring break, there's no other flights. You. Everything is booked. And I'm just sitting there like, oh, God, my whole family's like, meeting you there, like. And then she, like, looks over at me. Just come in, walk over. I'm like, yes, it's like your lucky day. I got you on a flight and it is straight shot to Hawaii in first class. So that was amazing.

[JD Denham]

Well, that shows you.

[Will]

Jesus.

[JD Denham]

That shows you why it's good to be cool to people, not a dick.

[Will]

Because a lot of people would piss.

[JD Denham]

Like, it would be their fault. Even though it was your fault.

[Will]

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

[JD Denham]

You know, and then you would have not been on first class.

[Will]

You're right. Yes. And I am chill. And I knew, I mean, yes, I definitely walked up to her. I was like, I Screwed up. I'm here. But anyway, then we flew home coach and oh my God, I don't know if I can ever fly. Not first class again. I'm just like big. So I'm like 6 4. You know, I try to sit in the aisle because. So I want the aisle so I can stretch my leg out. But that actually doesn't help because they're rolling those damn carts up relentlessly and so. And everybody walking through and they just crush your knee or your foot or your elbow. So if anything is hanging into the aisle, some I have to be here. And I also hate the people who try to recline their seat on me. I literally won't have it. Like I just. Cuz my knees already touch the back of the chair when I sit down. I just prop this knee up. So if they try to. It goes nowhere. And they look back and then. And then if they do look back, I'm like, what you want to do? Look at me, dude. Off. Sit up straight. And same ways I will not recline my seat on any person who's a big human being. If it's a little kid or like a small girl behind me, I'll recline it and I'll frankly ask them.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Because I hate it when people do that.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

It's kind of crazy. I don't know.

[JD Denham]

Flying just sucks. Especially flying to the east Coast. Dude, that's a long flight. Hawaii sucks too. It's a long flight. But man, try that with a two and a four year old.

[Will]

That's tough.

[JD Denham]

Yeah. At least.

[Ad Speaker]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

It's supposed to be good luck if it rains on your.

[Will]

That's what. That's what you said. Somebody told me, one of my best

[JD Denham]

friends, we flew out to Tennessee and dude, I was in the wedding and it started freaking absolutely pouring like the worst I'd ever even been in rain. And we're just sitting there hustling through it. I was just like, this freaking sucks, dude. Yeah, it was horrible.

[Will]

Soaking wet. That's right. And then they have some crazy bars there. So we went one night. It's like the whole waterfront. So giant boardwalk and probably eight bars just right next to each other. Half of them are. And basically everything is all kind of outdoors. So everything has a roof.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

But no real walls and windows.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Okay. They just let it all humid and you don't. And it does rain so you need the roof. But you know, half the bars are inside, outside. You can go to each one of them. So the one that we went to is called the Dead Dog Tavern. And it's. Every single wall is just packed full of everybody framed pictures of people's dead dogs. Like, not pictures when they're dead, but it's like a tribute to everybody. Yeah, no, they weren't accepting any new entries.

[JD Denham]

Everybody.

[Will]

A couple of people from our party like, printed out pictures to bring there.

[JD Denham]

Oh, my God.

[Will]

But they weren't taking new entries, but just everywhere. So it's kind of. I mean, you know, it's like. I don't know if that's creepy, but I figure it's better to remember them.

[JD Denham]

People love their dogs, man.

[Will]

People do love. But it was kind of cool to

[JD Denham]

sit there and you're a dog person or not a dog person. Yeah, like.

[Will]

Or a big dog person or not a. Not a big dog person. There's some people. Yeah, there's some people.

[JD Denham]

Like, people out there. There's people. So many listeners now going, yeah, yeah,

[Will]

I love my little dog. I can't do the little dogs.

[JD Denham]

My thing is, I'm not a big dog person. I'm not a big animal person. I just don't like hair on me. And. And like, dude, when people love their dogs, I get it. My dad's like, that loves his dog. But when they're walking their dog, they think, you love their dog. Their dog. And like, I don't want your dog jumping on me. So, like, you're like, dude, look, your legs. They think it's cool, but it's like, no. Like, yeah, I'm not a dog person.

[Will]

I feel you. Yes, I know. I remember having to somebody walk my dog. I'm like, hey, keep him away. Not everybody walks the dog. Okay? Like, yeah, but I mean, even, like, Nally would be walking the dog or somebody else is walking my dog and just let him because he wants to go say hi to everybody. But not everybody wants a giant dog. Come just right up on him and sniff him. I'm like, hey,

[JD Denham]

yeah.

[Will]

Not everybody likes him.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

And then it's great with. With Oscar, who is. Who was big, right? He's a pitbull Rottweiler, German shepherd, and he was £100. The craziest thing, though. Women who had little babies would always come up to me and be like,

[JD Denham]

oh, he's so beautiful.

[Will]

Take the baby. Put him right in his face.

[JD Denham]

Holy wow.

[Will]

I was like, lady. I mean, he's really nice. Like, he wouldn't. And he was especially great with. With children, women, and like, puppies. So a lot of dogs aren't good with puppies and therefore, and kids because they're like you. You pull my tail.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

But Oscar was. Was always like perfect. They're lucky. But it was crazy. I'm like, what are you doing sticking your baby's face in this giant dog's face?

[JD Denham]

Dude, that's crazy.

[Will]

Anyway, but it happens all the time.

[JD Denham]

No.

[Will]

So, yeah, I don't know. I'm back and feels good to be back. It feels really good to be back.

[JD Denham]

Oh man. It does, isn't it?

[Will]

I always like coming home.

[JD Denham]

We're doing Hawaii. We're doing for my birthday, going out to Cabo. We. We learned from the last trip cuz we went to. We're a big Cabo. It's two hours. You got to go to customs and that part sucks. But it kind of depends on when you get there. It's either really bad or you fly right through. But we love Cabo. It's one of our favorites. But man, we went on, we went for Christmas and we always get out of Dodge on Christmas because we do Christmas somewhere. And a four. I don't know what my kids were at the time, but pretty close to what they are now. But let's say 4 and 2 and it just was chaos the whole week. So we're doing I think five days. We're gonna cut it two days short. But they got a kids club and stuff like that. My son loves that stuff. So my wife and I can lay by a pool for at least a couple hours before they want us to come. Kids.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

Conversation. They can have a conversation with my wife.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

I forgot what that feels like.

[Will]

Yeah, I bet it's. I mean it's in, it's non stop. It's on the Christmas boat. This year we. Ally and I were t. Basically taking care of Jax because Liss is chasing them two kids up and down the danger stairs like. And like. Yeah, he won't let you leave you alone. He's really smart, Jack. But Jack, he's just always asking you questions. He's smart and like, look at this. Look at that. What's that made up?

[JD Denham]

He's super smart.

[Will]

But that's.

[JD Denham]

It's funny though, like cuz we got Jax. Who was that? We thought it was a firecracker. And Team Mason. Dude just came out of nowhere. Dude. He was screaming the whole freaking morning. And my wife looked at me. She goes, it's been a rough morning. I know she's gonna listen to this podcast. Baby, I love you. I don't even know how you do it. I'm like, I gotta go to work. Yeah, well, that's their bill for it, man. They're built for at least my bright brightness. Not every woman is, but she does it well. But she. Even Sarah told me today. Alyssa's gonna laugh this. She called Sarah after they left. It's like, yeah, I'm pretty done with kids.

[Will]

Yeah. Hell yeah. Well, it's. You know, river is now like, we're talking about going to dinner with Paul. River is of the age now where we can say, hey, we're gonna go dinner and you're just gonna stay home. We'll be quick. Like, we'll be quick. We try to like keep it less than two hours. Yeah, right. We also have cameras everywhere and can talk to them through the cameras. Like, what are you doing? Yeah, I see you walking over there like, don't you dare leave. Okay. But that's nice. Oh yeah.

[JD Denham]

Right, right.

[Will]

Get to that point. We're like, okay.

[JD Denham]

She can't wait.

[Will]

He falls in the pool. Like if he's 10 years old and he drowns, he. I'm sorry. He deserves a drown because like he's. Then he's a dumbass. And it's like, survive. We're going to make our genetic line better. But he is not going to drown in the pool. He knows how to swim.

[JD Denham]

There's floaties.

[Will]

He knows. Did not. He knows what a pool is.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

We don't. I don't think we should worry about that River.

[JD Denham]

He's a good dude.

[Will]

Yes.

[JD Denham]

Well, all right. It is time to bust out the Q and A. I'm going to turn this off.

[Will]

Yeah. I think it just needs to go higher. Yeah, I'm gonna be great. Okay. Yep. Q A and I will start. Huh?

[JD Denham]

Let's do it.

[Will]

Okay. Question number one. What's up big dogs? I appreciate the information provided. It's been life changing. I'm 32 year old male, 57230, down £12 since starting retta and locking in my diet around 3:18. I don't know what that means. Is that a date? On recent blood work, My total test was 369. My doctor said this is normal and should improve with weight loss, which makes sense. Not sure of other hormone markers, but I'm currently running retin plus mozzie and I'm entering the idea of hopping on. I'm entertaining the idea of hopping on. Trt. I'm in the gym five days a week. I'm determined to get in the best shape of my life. Dam right. I have three kids and I'm good with that. Speaking up and I'm good with that. Should I hop on trt? What else should I stack? I got both my parents on the Wolverine stat plus nad plus retta since I stumbled across your content and it's made a huge positive impact on their daily lives in such little time. Thank you. Sweet.

[JD Denham]

Yeah. 32 with 369. Well, that's crazy. 32 year olds. I was talking about this somebody recently, just about when I was doing the fitness stuff and I generally was working with men over 40, but as the channel got bigger, I started to work with, you know, younger guys started to trickle in and I was blown away. Dude. When I like, they would say, dude, I'm exhausted. And then I'm like, I always remember thinking going, man, you're 28. There's no way you have low testosterone, right? Yeah, yeah. You pull a few blood works at 28, you realize they do and you're like, damn, bro. Yeah, she is.

[Will]

Yes.

[JD Denham]

It's crazy. Crazy.

[Will]

And why? No, I mean, there's a whole bunch of reasons why maybe. But so for you, like, good for you getting on your parents on the Wolverine stack and nad and £12 in the. In, you know, just starting like, that's good. That's a good, healthy way to lose. We don't want to lose 50 pounds in a week. TRT, dude. So 369. Yeah. Okay, your doctor's right. You're in range, right? Because I think range, range, clinical range is like 300 to a thousand. But the reality is you are living basically as like a 60 year old man. Okay, that's what the 369 total testosterone, it's about average for a 60 year old man. So you are 32 years old. So that sucks. And no wonder it is hard to lose weight. And no wonder you're. It's like rolling a boulder uphill. And this will make a whole bunch, make it a whole bunch easier. If you can start the test, I would absolutely do it. Looks like you already got your blood work. Get a full hormone panel though. I guess you said you weren't sure about the other hormonal markers. Make sure that your doc didn't just like, hey, we'll give you just a total, total testosterone score. A lot too. A lot do. And they'll blow. Like you get one blood test a year. Our friend did that. Like you get one blood test a year, otherwise they're 800. And the DOC came back and tested it for total testosterone. And that is all he had to do was check boxes, spend another 20 seconds checking all the other panels, but he decided not to do that. And then now you're screwed. So get a good starting panel. And then I, I, I mean, hell, I do do test, and so therefore I would do this in your situation. The mot c is great. I mean, everything else seems you, Matsi, Retta kind of go consistently with them with each other, right hand in hand. I would think about adding Tessa Morellon milligram a day at night. It will, it will run synergistically with Retta. It'll burn belly fat. And your growth hormone is probably low because your testosterone is low. So that is going to stimulate your natural growth hormone. So I would look into adding that into your stack.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, I mean, just changing one thing is the testosterone. I mean, that's gonna literally change your life. Now, you would have different opinions than probably ours, and that's fine. But I mean, we've just dealt with countless men who have low testosterone. And you're gonna have people bitching about the fact that we're saying this because you're 32. Because when you have a lot of body fat, it will bring down your test levels. Let's just call it what it is. So, you know, you can say, well, I can see if when I lose weight, my test levels are going to. It ain't like your good test levels are going to go up to like 900, where generally I like to stay. 900, dude. Thousand even. But like Will said, that's just a little tiny piece of the edge of the picture that of your body. Like estradiol free testosterone, lh, fsh, cortisol. I mean, we could go on and on. You got to know these numbers and you got to know, you got to get with a doctor that knows how these all work together. And a lot of MDs don't. Sorry. Just the case. So because this is a big piece of the puzzle, you know, like, you're losing weight. Rad. You are on the journey. You're still going to have a hard time losing weight and getting in the shape that you want if your testosterone low. Dude, like, testosterone is the base of everything for a man. Women too. Like, that's not like, leave women out, they need testosterone. But so, yeah, I figured you were going to say, we didn't talk about this before, but I figured you were going to say, yeah, but yeah, I think you should get on testosterone. Here's the thing. A lot of people think it's a life sentence. It's not. You're 32. Let's say you drop a bunch of weight. You get ripped and you want to come out testosterone. Everybody thinks you can't. You absolutely can. With a proper post cycle therapy, you got to come off with like hcg. A lot of different few things that will like reignite, you know, your body to make its own testosterone if you want to, or you can stay on it, you know. So I think that's the granddaddy of them. You can add in some slew. SS31, you're running mot C. So mot C and we, we talk about all the time. Mot C and SS31 run so great together. And I say slew just because it's not another injection and people love soup. It's a exercise My medic. So it's going to kind of keep your body thinking it's working out. You might sweat a little more, but that's a good thing. So get on test, dude. Just try it, man. Run it for six months and then you can just reevaluate things then. But you will catapult yourself forward if you do. If you don't, you still get better. It's gonna be a slower.

[Will]

Yep. And find a doctor like you said. Right. Like hey, find a doctor who is versed in optimizing hormones, not just getting you to the range. Yeah, right. Like most of these HMO doctors. So like Kaiser, all these big hospitals, unfortunately that they are, they're bound by rules, the governing rules of where they work. So they probably won't be able to prescribe you testosterone. But a lot of private physicians who have their license, who know what the hell they're doing, they will prescribe based on symptoms and not, not just test scores. So there are doctors that specialize in this and I would go find them and you start low and hell no, it's not distance. Like hell. We have a friend who's a pro bodybuilder. He's retired now, but I mean he's one that, he's got like, he's won the Arnold classically three times and he's been off test for a year to get his girl pregnant. He's in a wheelchair now, but so it's a little bit harder, harder to get his testosterone up. But he's been off test for a whole year. He's a little skinnier. Right. But he said the doctors got his like, got viable sperm from him and

[JD Denham]

he said right away.

[Will]

And yeah, he's like new. First thing I did was go run to go inject some tests. But he's been off for a year and he's been killing in business and. And living his life. So it's definitely not a death sentence. You can come off. Yep. No problem.

[JD Denham]

I don't know where that came from, man. Of course you can come off.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

Of course you can.

[Will]

Yeah. So just do it the right way.

[JD Denham]

Right? You got to do the right. Yeah. I mean, if you cut this stop abruptly, you're gonna have a problem.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

You cannot stop testosterone abruptly. You have to do it with the proper protocol. So, please, if you do come off, you can just do it properly. Just do not abruptly stop.

[Will]

And obviously, the longer that you're on it, the worse that it's going to be to get off and the higher the dose that you're on it. Right. There's a huge difference. If you're doing 500 migs a week for. For 10 years, that's going to hurt coming off versus somebody who's doing.

[Will]

Let's go like a hundred migs for a year.

[JD Denham]

For a year.

[Will]

Friends.

[JD Denham]

So tired.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

Alrighty.

[Will]

It is.

[JD Denham]

All right. So see. Hey, man, I've been listening to your podcast for weeks.

[Will]

Weeks.

[JD Denham]

I'm loving the content. Long story short, my wife had a breast lift augmentation almost four weeks ago. She had some complications in the wound opening. There is no infection, just open incision. I've been thinking about having her start a Wolverine stack or maybe CLO or glow blend. Do you think this will help either open incision healing? Also, once the incision is closed, I was wondering if the Blue Goddess or Blue Magic serum is good for scars healing. Thank you. Great question, man. I wonder what happened to that. I would ask a surgeon, like, what's going on, man? Something weird. Definitely talk to him about that. So you want to get that. His opinion on that. That's kind of odd. I've never really heard of that happening. But, yes, I would definitely suggest the Wolverine. I would leave the other ones out for now because you could take a lot. We've talked about it. But you can take a lot of it, and it will expedite the healing substantially. And then you can add in some ghkc. You can kind of do a separate. And to answer your final question, would the serum help? Absolutely. I would absolutely rub it on that. GHKCU is great for scars and healing, so I would definitely be rubbing that. When we get our tattoos done, we rub it on it right away.

[Will]

That's true.

[JD Denham]

So you want to put that on there. So, yes, that will help.

[Will]

I would say, basically, along with. Along the lines with jd, I would go the BPC TB blend. Right. Leave out the no glow, no CLO for now. Because. Because. So in a perfect world, what I would do is a milligram of bpc, a milligram of tb, and a milligram of KPV twice a day for three weeks. And, like a triangle kind of around that spot, honestly.

[JD Denham]

Right.

[Will]

Maybe like an inch or two around it. Don't put it in an open wound. Right. I would go heavy. I'd go real aggressive with all three of those. Then I would only use the serum once that wound is closed.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

So I don't want to put in the serum in the open wound. Yes. I have done that with tattoos. It's not the same, though. It's not like a really deep open wound. It's like. It's like a barely a skin abrasion. So I do put the serum on, like, a fresh tattoo, but I wouldn't put it in the open wound right now. That could cause some type of infection, but I'd go heavy with those. And then after those. After three weeks, then I would actually. Yes, I would go to. I would switch into clo because. And then do you know the bpctb, that dose will be lower. The reason you don't want to do the glow or the CLO is because I want you to get high doses of TB bpc, and you can't do high doses of that with. With. With GHKCU inside of that because the ratio is so much bigger. So you can't give yourself that much ghkcu, if that makes sense. So that's what I would do. Absolutely. And it will help. Watch.

[JD Denham]

Yep. Good stuff.

[Will]

Yep. All right. Hey, you guys are great. Look forward to Every episode. I'm a 57 year old male taking 40 units of test a week, split in two doses. Started, started retta and it's working Great. Up to 1.75 every five days. Lost 20 pounds in two months. 300 pounds. Workout with weights. I'm 50 pounds heavy and working on that. Eat pretty good scratch kitchen at home and meal prep. I do to eat once a week, plus or minus and that's my che. Don't count calories and have a hard time getting over 200 grams of protein a day. Just too much. Especially on reta, mostly meat diet. I'm allergic to BPC157. I broke out in a horrible rash. I'm currently using GHKCU 10 units five days a week. TB, 500 to 10 units seven days a week. NAD, 35 units two days a week. HGH, one and a half units every morning. What doses should I adjust to? These doses? These doses or those? Just from listening and guessing what I should do. Thanks guys.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, well, go ahead.

[Will]

Yes, start it off.

[JD Denham]

Well, when everybody says my diet's okay, you know, you want to always like really like focus on that. I mean you got some weight to lose so you're gonna let the Reddit do what it needs to do, right? That's the most important thing. You lost £20 and too much. That's awesome. That is a good weight to run. And just go slow, man. Just understand that this is not. You didn't gain it overnight. So you need to give your time to, to kind of run this and just keep your DIET Consistent. You're 57, so I'm going to say cut out sugar, cut out seed oils. You know, focus on diet. That's going to be very important. I'm sure everybody knows at this point I'm going to add in some fasting because I think that has huge, huge, huge, huge, huge benefits, especially for, for man your age. You'll catapult yourself forward with the fat burning. And this means no cream in your coffee. This means no just cut out breakfast for a while, maybe Monday through Friday and just do two meals. And that alone should, should do you pretty good. Maybe a 16, 8 type intermittent fasting would do you good if you keep your diet in line. And when it comes to not getting enough protein. Listen, I fast a lot, so it's one of my problems. You supplement with a good protein shake, obviously, but like a good protein shake, there's some very bad protein sh. Like Noble. I've been using Noble. My wife found that and it's been great. It's. Everything in there is clean. So maybe look into them. They're obviously expensive, but they're expensive because they're good and the. The product is good. So you can always do that. But, you know, instead of always adding more stuff, I think that if we get back to the basics and let the retta do what it does and just go that route and be consistent, keep working out, keep your diet in line and cut out the sugar and added some fasting, I think, you know, you're gonna be golden, man. I mean, your HGH is good. You can maybe go to two IUs. But, you know, one of the things is, I saw this. You're doing the NAD ghkcu. You didn't really say why. I didn't see anything within here that said the why of that. So you can always, you know, you can add in some SS31 and some mod C that'll kind of rev up your mitochondria. But, you know, the more that I study, the more I implement on myself and do research on myself, I'm. I'm very fastly becoming less is more and focused on the basics and stopping to more. More. More different. More products. More products and just really kind of getting that base set. Because we want to reset the way that you live more than anything, because there will be a day when you want to probably take out the retta, right? And you want to have that base very strong. So that's my take.

[Will]

Okay. I think so Based. Let me. I just want to make sure that I'm understanding numbers. So you're taking 40 units of tests a week split into two doses. So that is a total. So that means you're taking, so 0.2 of a mil. So that's your. That works out to be about 80 milligrams total a week. All right, Because. Because the Test bottle is 200 milli. Test sips 200 milligrams per milliliter. So 100 units, 70 ish. The 100 units is 200 milligrams. Right? That would mean 50 units is 100 milligrams. And you're taking 40. Right? So we're at 80 milligrams. And then you divide that by two. Yeah, no, I think he just 80 migs total. 40. 40. She says 40 units of test a week split into two doses.

[JD Denham]

That's what we're talking about.

[Will]

So that is. I would. I would bump it up, dude. At 300 pounds, I think you need a little bit more test to support your Muscle. Right. To keep even that muscle on you, I would get that up to a heck 100 milligrams at least. Maybe 150 milligrams to 200 milligrams a week. So 100 milligrams again is 0.5, 0.5 milliliters, aka 50 units. So I'd go to maybe 100 to 150, maybe 200 MB of test weekly, split into two doses like you're doing. Retta seems to be working. Good for you. That's awesome. If every five days works for you, that's great. I'm glad to hear that. It's not every seven days. If you want to do more often, more frequently, we often, you know, propose that people do it a bit more frequently. And also 1.75 milligrams every five days is very low. Good for you. And if you've experienced a lot of weight loss from that, that then, then awesome. Just, you will build a little tolerance. So don't feel bad about bumping that up slightly as you go. Okay. The. I don't, I don't quite. I mean, the TB 500 is the goal. Healing. I don't know why. Why the TB500? But otherwise. But it can't hurt you. Yeah, but I don't really know the exact goal on that one. GHKC is good for your skin, but

[JD Denham]

if our goal is to lose weight,

[Will]

there's a better process.

[JD Denham]

And add those in later.

[Will]

Absolutely. So I don't think that those are really the good nad. I would definitely do it three times a week, at least. And I like the 35 units. My guessing is, is that's 35 milligrams. Yeah, that's about what I'm taking. I'm taking my. Actually I'm taking 50 milligrams three days a week now, sometimes every day. And I notice a difference. Dude, I seriously, I notice a difference in my skin. Like it looks smoother and in energy levels and brain function. Don't count calories. Don't count calories. Good for you, what you want to do. If you're going to count something, you need to count your macronutrients, not your calories. Right. Because a Twinkie and a piece of steak, they are all both calories. And if we're just counting calories, then that means you just got to make sure you eat lower amount of Twinkies all day long and that's all you eat. Like, that's not going to lead you in a good place. Right. Because calories is Not a good measurement. So macronutrients means protein, carbs, fat. Those are the things that we should be counting. Yeah, and you have it, right, like protein, protein, protein. I know that's tough, but with the Reddit. But small frequent meals, you know, if you fast, that's going to be really hard. But then you can try not to eat a small meal. But good luck with the retta because it makes you get full real fast. So I would change those up again. I would second the HGH. You know, I'd say between two to three IUs daily. And a big guy like you and yeah would be a great one to add in. I mean the red red Amazi, maybe even Tesla Morellin. So add again. You're a little bit overweight. You've been overweight. My guess is your natural growth hormone production is a bit low and tesamorelin burns fat in your belly and will help boost your metabolism by increasing your growth and growth hormones. So I'd maybe add intestine, 500 to, to a thousand micrograms a night. Even a big dude, who knows. I know people who can take, you know, 2 milligrams a night. So dude, keep kicking ass. You know you made progress. Like, like keep going and keep focusing in and £20. You're absolutely on the right track.

[JD Denham]

Love it. Good stuff. All right, all right, let's see. We got. Hey guys. My name is Charlie. I'm 41 years old, five eight, 165 pounds. Married man, father of four under age of 13. I'm from Long Island, New York. I'm retired police officer. I'm having arthritis in both wrists and my right elbow. It feels like tennis elbow symptoms too. I have partial tor meniscus left knee, had multiple surgeries due to getting hurt in the job. I retired in 2022 and it didn't care and I didn't care about my health. Then around end of 2024 I decided to change my man. I was about 210 and didn't exercise at all. My test level was 525 and Estrada estrogen was over 50. I was pre diabetic and needed meds for cholesterol and blood pressure. On April 23, 2025 I started TRT and peptides. My T is at 875 and estrogen is 29. And I don't take anything for blood pressure or cholesterol anymore. Perfect. I was taking 15 units of W brain, 15 units of Tessa, 15 units of GHKCU and Mossy 25 units. IGF1 15 units. Ceylon 10 units. Monday Saturday, six days per week. I still had bad arthritis and it's really hard to work out with the pain. I dropped the kettle ball a lot because the pain coming from my wrists. I just don't know if I'm taking enough Wolverine stack back. If you were me, would you increase dosage and by how much? If you were me, you guys are really awesome and I'm thankful to have found you guys. Learn from you to learn from the best. Take care and thanks again for everything. That was dope.

[Will]

Yeah, that's cool. So I'll give you a little. So the main question is Wolverine, like, should I increase it? Hell yeah, dude. I would go super aggressive and arthritis tendinitis. You know, I don't know. You don't really know exactly what it is. You seem to think it's arthritis, but it will really help and how much. Like, I would go and I would put it in the spots. Right. If the pain's originating from here. Right. Which is generally tennis elbow. If it's radiating down your wrist. I know that feeling where this hurts so bad that you just can't even squeeze or hold on to something. I would go aggressive and go 2mgs of BPC one by seven and also 2mg of TB 500 in this. So that's a Wolverine blend. If, let's say if you have the 10 milligram. 10 milligram, add 2 mils of water. Hell, you can add 1 mil of water to make yourself inject less 1 mil of water. And then 10 units will be 1 milligram of each. 20 units will be 2 milligrams of each. So that'll go pretty fast. Last you five days at 2 milligrams. But I think I would run that for three weeks. Yeah, maybe. Even if you want to do 15 days, you want to use like three bottles and go aggressive for 15 days, watch what happens. Then you can drop that down to more of a maintenance dose. Maybe like, you know, 0.5, maybe 1 milligram three times a week instead of 2 milligrams daily. So I'd go real aggressive there. You know, thymos and alpha, maybe like twice weekly actually is going to help with inflammation, which is. And help some regulate some autoimmune issues where. So that when actually will help reduce pain significantly potentially. And epitalin, actually depitalin running like 100 milligrams over 10 days. So 10 migs a day for 10 migs a day for 10 days. 100 milligrams do that twice a year. That actually is good. It can really help with people's inflammation. Yeah. And I know there is a joint supplement that I buy at Nutrishop. I don't know where you live, but. But it is made by Catalyst with a. And I think it's just called joint complex. That stuff is amazing. You take three of these big yellow horse pills. Yeah. I used to buy this from bottles from my neighbor all the time. And I take it and I notice it when I stop, like, damn, why are my joints are hurting? I go, oh, shoot. I ran out of. I ran out of spells like three days ago. Yeah, you've given some over the counter. Dude, that stuff's awesome. And yeah, yeah, that's what I got there.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, man. Absolutely. Increase it. Oh, man, that's going to help with that tendonitis and you know you're kicking ass and that's awesome. But the difference. What only thing that I would kind of add to that will degrade on that answer is I would add hgh. Hgh, as you've heard me say, is is right under testosterone. That's the granddaddy. But HGH is a. Is. Is right under it. For guys that are over 40 and especially you because you have a lot of injuries. So that's going to be something that you want to. You run it with the testament for sure. And I would run at least 2ius maybe out the gate to just really get you saturated, even bump it up a little bit because that's going to help you heal. It's going to help the wounds heal. But that protocol that we'll just said, that's great, man. But yeah, jump on the hgh. You'll notice it. It'll help you need it get wounded. That's one of the things that's going to help with a lot.

[Will]

Yeah. And you've done. You've kicked ass. I mean from that high stress job with all these injuries. Right. To have your test be in the 8,875and estrogen 29, not taking any more meds for blood pressure or cholesterol. Like good for you. That, that took some work. Just kind of abusing your body for a while your whole life. That's great. How are you? 41 and retired. That's awesome.

[JD Denham]

Injuries.

[Will]

Oh, they retired because of injuries. Sounds like it. But I. Oh, no, I don't know. Long Island, New York takes care of its police officers, their pensions. I mean, 41 is. Is young. So good job.

[JD Denham]

Also with the blood pressure and the Cholesterol medicine. I'm assuming they're saying a statin but why don't let's put some KPV in there and try to reboot your gut because those things destroy your gut, man. So throw in some KPV and run that for a bit because that's going to help with your gut. Throw that in there too.

[Will]

Did you know that they. When they were so they started studying mot C because and how that started was they took. Took. They found centennials. So centennials are people who are. Who live over 100 years old. All right. So they. They said what the. Like how. Why are these people living over 100 years old? And they micro. Basically the one thing they were studying mitochondria and the one thing they all had in common was higher levels of mothsi or whatever matzi does to. To you know, rub it up to increase that mitochondrial function. So that is how they discovered Matzah. Basically looking for the fountain of youth.

[JD Denham]

Rad. Just fun fact. Yeah dude, it's. I mean it is mossy's great. Yeah, it definitely is great man.

[Will]

Okay, I got it. I think I. Hey guys. I'm a 37 year old female and I want to improve my physique, slim the waist, increase the lower body muscle growth and improve my mood and sex drive. I'm 5 foot 118 pounds weight train five days a week, eat at a maintenance with high protein and order peptides like a fiend. But I feel like I don't actually know what stack would be best for me. Help. I want the ultimate fat blasting, muscle building, sex drive improving stack. Currently I'm on Reddit 1 1/2 migs of migs weekly. Kiss peptin 500 micrograms 3 times a week. 5amino 1 mq 500 micrograms every amount aod 5 days a week. In the AM workout days I've debated Ipamorelin, Tessa Matsi, etc. I'm open to any and all suggestions. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. I can't get enough. My kind of girl. Good for you goals and kiss peptin

[JD Denham]

5amino AOD good for cat fat burning.

[Will]

I.

[JD Denham]

You better take this one.

[Will]

Yeah, go ahead and I'll give.

[JD Denham]

I. I mean so you. I get what you're going at. We all want that, you know. We all want a nice sex drive I would say obviously. I would imagine you have get your blood work done. You're 37. You're getting up there and our hormones start changing. Damn. They start changing a lot earlier than 37 these days. But we want to do that because you might even I don't.

[Ad Speaker]

If we knew more about our sleep, what would we do differently? Would we go to bed at a consistent time or take steps to reduce interruptions to our sleep? With Sleepscore, Apple Watch measures your bedtime consistency, interruptions and sleep duration. Then every morning it combines these factors into an easy to understand score from 1 to 100. So you'll know how to take the quality of your sleep from okay to very high. Know your sleep score with Apple Watch iPhone 11 or later required.

You thought this was your Run Club era. Turns out it was more of a thinking about Run Club era. The good news? Someone's marathon training is about to start. Sell your workout gear on Depop. Just snap a few photos and we'll take care of the rest. They get their race day fit and you get a payout for trying. Someone on Depop wants what you've got. Start selling now. Depop where taste recognizes taste 37 too young for testosterone?

[JD Denham]

Probably a little bit, but man, I don't know man. Maybe some progesterone, but anyways Kisspeptin is okay. I would get your blood work done and kind of see where your actual hormone levels are at. But in regards to answering your question, what you can take, you might try to because you want to feel good. You might want to try to maybe replace the retta for a bit with Tessa fencing. You heard me say Tessa fencing. I didn't like it but man I've become a big fan of it. It I don't personally get the food noise blockage like a lot do, but most do. For me it works with energy like right away. I like take it before I take my coffee in the morning. And we will agree with this. It just really kind of just makes you feel like you're in a good mood and that will help you with your mood. So. Or if you stay on the retta, we can replace that with C Lock and C Max. There's now a blend. You can knock it out in one shot. So either the Tessa fencing, pull out the retta or if you want to keep the Reta in, leave it in and do the C Lock and the C Max. But I think you might like the Tesla fencing man. I'm a big fan of it and it gives you a lot of energy for the skin, hair, nails and you're going to obviously do the GHKCU nad for sure you want to get on nad. It's a great for anti aging and it's Going to give you some cellular energy. And the obvious is going to be the PT141 for your sex drive. If you haven't found it, if you haven't tried it now, you're not going to take it. And you're going to be horny, running strong. You're going to need to take it. And it works within, like, a certain period for me, it works within about a day to two. And as I think Will talked about it last time. Oh, we did PT141 last week. You don't like, just get horny, but if somebody starts talking to you dirty and you start thinking about it, it revs it up, up. You know what I mean? So that's how that's going to work and that's going to help. And lastly, you have no growth hormone in there, so you're either going to want to be on an HGH1IU or maybe a Tess Morellin at night. Yeah, either would work for you. You're kicking ass. Those all that can help you out kind of better than. Than where you're at. And I think. Think that would be a good take to try those. Yeah. Where you needed to go.

[Will]

Yeah. So you're like, right now you actually have a really good stack. So I'm not trying to. I'm trying not to repeat things that JD just said, but what you're taking

[JD Denham]

on testosterone or getting the blood work. You think that. When's the level that our ladies are even starting to see that? Is that too young now? Because men are like 28. What the hell?

[Will]

Yeah, you know, I think that. I don't want to say there's an age. I would say let's listen to the blood work and how you feel and actually talk to. I'm not that versed with the women, so sorry, I can't really give you the. The right answer, but hell, go to the doctor and get your blood work done no matter what. And just. Yeah, no matter what.

[JD Denham]

You need that.

[Will]

Let's see what that. See what that yields. See where your testosterone is. See where all of your other hormonal markers are. Kiss Peptin is great. It's a good optimal rate. I would even. You could even bump that up to like a milligram three times a week. So that's great. Everything, I mean, what you're taking sounds really good. Okay. And I think nothing is wrong. I would. I would definitely add in like a Tesla Marlin iPammerellin. So there's a newish blended Tessa Morel in 10mg IPA, 3mg. Okay. I generally definitely think that is the best one for women. Okay. So Tessa is gonna and will help your muscle growth. It'll help you put on some muscle without, you know, like the CJC IPA like 10, 10, 5, 5. That will definitely maximize muscle growth. Muscle growth. But for women it tends to cause too much of both. And you will maybe add some water retention that you won't be happy with. The Tessa burns belly fat and will help. And IPA will help it with muscle growth. So I like that 10 to 3 ratio. Yeah, I would definitely add that in. That will really help. I would also add an NAD for a woman. Like it, it helps your brain, health, cognitive function, your energy. I would add that in and you know, you start, start small 10 milligrams, maybe three times a week and then raise up up to 50 milligrams. Yeah, three times a week. But as tolerated, don't go bump too fast too much. Okay. Because you'll have overwhelming tingling and it won't be fun for you. PT141 100. That stuff's awesome. Even shoot you like nasal spray or something. And, and maybe you should experiment with, with, with like a micro dose daily if you want. Just like a sex drive at all times. Yeah, might be a good idea. Micro dose daily if you are. If you want just a sex drive, when you want a sex drive, then an hour before sex, run it and it will work, I promise. You bet.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

I mean it's literally like FDA approved essentially female Viagra. So it works. Except for it doesn't. It works in your brain, not in your thing. Yeah, yeah, but you're a woman without, without a thing. So. So I think you're kicking ass. I would add, I would add some of those CMAX for energy, but CMAX C link is definite blend, so I won't repeat his explanations. But yeah, give those a try. Right. And all these peptides, awesome. Try them, experiment them. They're a long play. Right. You know, I would give everything a fair shake. At least 90 days. Really? I really kind of. 120 days. Totally on everything. You try to really get that full benefit and then you'll know what you like and what you don't like. Some things work better on some people. Some things work, work less good. But yeah, and if you didn't say mot C, I would 100 try that too. Yeah. You're up.

[JD Denham]

Right, let's see what we got. Can I take two different GLP1s at the same Time I take Retta once a week, 10 units and would like to start for zepatide three times a week at night. Some say that you shouldn't take two GLB ones. Help. Please. Love your podcast. Great question. That's interesting. Sure.

[Will]

I don't think so. Honestly, some form my thought is no. I think the only time that you would want to take them at once is if you are transitioning from one to another. I don't think Retta just does everything way better. Better good. Like literally the only thing that Tirzepatide does better and it's not even something better, but it has less anti nausea, therefore you feel more nauseous. Therefore you will eat like, like nothing. Like you do not want to eat anything and it's not like your projectile like vomiting nausea. You don't almost know that you're nauseous. You're just like damn, I'm just not hungry. Yeah, I don't feel like throwing up. I sure as hell don't feel like eating. If you want to feel like that, that's the only benefit to Zipata. Yeah, but like Red Eyes does everything way better.

[JD Denham]

I think that does. People think they're supposed to feel that

[Will]

is what people think they're supposed to

[JD Denham]

like red throws that curveball at people a lot. But you don't need to feel like that.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

No.

[Will]

So that's my thought.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, I've heard people say that. I mean you could kind of worsen the digestion stuff. I've done some reading a little bit on bowl. If you add the two, you don't need to need it. You don't need it. It's like why would you drive like a Rolls Royce and like just a lower grade car? You know what I mean? Like why do that? You can, right? Doesn't mean you should just up. You don't really give us much of like what your objectives are, what you're trying to accomplish, what your goals are, your weight. So there's. It's kind of a vague question but say yeah now I would not do that personally. There's other peptides that you can help probably get to your goal that you can up the red up and just the basics. Good diet, sleep, add protein. A lot of ladies think they need to eat salads and stuff. But like listen, you start with the protein first thing in the morning. Those will go a long way. Don't do the Tirzepatide, just stick on the the better product.

[Will]

Yeah. And he mentioned Tesla fencing a couple minutes ago. Like that is A good product for somebody who's maybe coming off of the GLPs, right. They want to give their body a break from any of these GLP ones because it does help your brain feel saf satiated and not want to eat and keep your energy levels.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Ad Speaker]

Up.

[Will]

You know, here's another little fact I in preparation I printed out just some like I researched some different fun facts and I had known this before but the GOP but here this GLP1s were a lot of the research is based on the Gila monster. So you know what those are? They look like a Komodo dragon.

[JD Denham]

Really?

[Will]

Right.

[JD Denham]

Wow.

[Will]

Because those guys can in in their saliva and their saliva is toxic. That's why they kill you is because they'll bite you but their saliva is just is like toxic and you will have an infection and then slowly die. But why do they, why do they study them? Because these things can go months and months without eating and maintain just perfect blood sugar. So and that's kind of, that is what part of Retta is doing, right? You're not eating food, but it's still pumping insulin like you are eating food, which is, it's actually friggin anabolic and it is just constantly monitoring your blood sugar. Right. So when I don't eat and I'm taking Reta, my brain doesn't go hangry, right. Because my blood sugar doesn't crash, it self regulates. So it pushes up sugar into my brain. So I feel, I feel great and I still have energy. My brain works even without eating, which is crazy. So there's your fun fact. All right. I'm a late, I'm a late 30s mom with a very active lifestyle. I'm on my feet all day as a teacher, my exercise and play sports daily and I'm constantly running after my kids. Despite staying active, I often feel flat, tired and like I've plateaued in terms of body composition. I've already lost around 5 kg on 2 mg of retta and previously lost about 20 kg on tirzepat type. But I'm now focused more on recomposition, especially reducing stubborn midsection fat, improved muscle tone definition and addressing some loose skin from my earlier weight loss. My goals are leaner, more tone physique, especially midsection, improved energy and recovery, better skin quality, better glow. Right? Healthy aging, longevity support, maintaining performance with a very busy, with a very busy, high stress lifestyle. I'm also conscious of keeping things simple. I don't want an overly complicated or high injection protocol and I'm Cautious about anything with significant long term risks. Concerns due to family cancer history starting from Reddit. 2mg. What would a minimal evidence informed peptide stack or add on protocol look like to support these goals? Fat loss, muscle tone, energy, skin longevity while keeping it simple and sustainable. That was effing awesomely written.

[JD Denham]

Good job. Yeah, she's a teacher.

[Will]

That was. You're a teacher? No. Wow. Giving instruction instructions. That's really good.

[JD Denham]

Will like that. Because he grew up with the teacher.

[Will]

Yeah, both my parents teachers.

[JD Denham]

He understood the language.

[Will]

Yeah, that made perfect sense.

[JD Denham]

Good job.

[Will]

My mother's. My mother has been like an English teacher for her whole life. My father's been a art wood job. Etc.

[JD Denham]

Dude, when will. I think it was for your sober birthday? We all went.

[Will]

Oh, God.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, we all went to Tupon. Tap on. And his mom, I don't think she could be there, but she sent a letter to Chad to my sponsor. But dude, I remember him reading it. I remember this is the most articulate written letter ever. It was so well written. I remember literally thinking that, going, wow,

[Will]

it was like a professional. Like, it was really well written. So. So she sent it to Chad and said, hey, if you guys do something for his birthday, sober birthday, read this aloud in front of everybody.

[JD Denham]

But you did.

[Will]

And he did. And so like we had dinner like 20, 30 people and then we walked outside and Chad got up on. On some like, box, who said, all right, mom wanted me to read this. And it was. Yes, it was. It was well thought out. It was basically, yeah, compared.

[JD Denham]

You smelled the kind.

[Will]

Yeah, absolutely. So thanks. Mom's embarrassing, but whatever. It wasn't really that embarrassed.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, no, it's good.

[Will]

So to answer your question. So simple. This is very good. Helpful. So retta. Two milligrams. Cool. Dig it. Stay there.

[JD Denham]

So from the standpoint, if she doesn't want to inject much.

[Will]

Yeah, it doesn't want to inject much. Sorry. But there's still something. So I would do nad. All right. 25 migs to 50 milligrams three times a week. I would do Tessa Morellin, either Tessa by itself. To help burn that belly fat. It boosts your metabolism, it keeps muscle on you and actually helps you create more muscle. Now, the problem here is the growth hormone portion family cancer risk. Tessa Marellin is a growth hormone. It's a cretagogue. Again, it does not cause cancer. Okay. Cancer is a tissue. So if you have cancer and you're taking something that makes your tissues grow, it potentially could maybe, if you have cancer make the cancer grow a little bit faster. My guess is though man, this is not scientific answer on this right now is like feeding yourself tons of glucose and sugar is just force feeding like is like a funnel and just shoving food down the cancer's throat that will make it grow a lot faster than eating right. And taking Tesla and growth hormone secret. Okay, I'm willing to bet a lot on that. But I don't know how we're going to really, really prove that in the next. Yeah, a little bit. But so Tesla Mellon either by themselves or the Tesla 10 mig IPA, 3 milligram blend and then I mean GHKCU. Sorry. You want your skin to look better. The NAD actually I think really, really will help. But I also do think that that GHKCU or just run the CLO or glow. I don't think that there is much worry about BPCTB as far as cancer. Not, not, not that in fact, as Paul said, the newest piece of research that came out said that BPC is in fact it's not just. Just telling everything just to grow more. Right. It is literally just signaling to damaged tissue. And that's where it's creating the angiogenesis, the new blood vessels which provide more lifeblood to injuries and make them grow. Therefore it is basically just zipping right by any potential cancer. Because cancer isn't a injury, right. Isn't something that needs to be healed. So to try to keep it simple, I'm going to stop that there. Oh actually I will say Sloop tablets. Okay. Because you wanted performance. Sloop is going to help boost performance nutrient partitioning and it's not an injection and help with some more energy. Same with nad. Mental, physical.

[JD Denham]

Great.

[Will]

Then I will stop.

[JD Denham]

It's great. You wrote. You basically everything that I had written down is you answered. So it was great. The only thing that I would add is creatine. I think that is something everybody should take. So. So even you ladies. Creatine is awesome. So jump that and then just the standard get back to it. You are running around chasing kids. I know this by watching my wife. So if you're chasing kids in your classroom, I can't even imagine not. Did she say what grade she teaches? She didn't, no. But just what Will said. Probably the CLO would probably be the best because you'll knock out, you know, four in one and you want that gut health. So the KPV is going to do a lot for you on that. And sleep, sleep, weight train, sleep, protein, add some creatine and everything will say it was perfectly set. Mic drop don't do.

[Will]

Yep.

[JD Denham]

All right, let's see. Hey, guys. Love the podcast and your products. The packaging and shipping time is super fast. And little prayer cards with beautiful surprise. Thank you. Can you help me understand peptide blends? Dosing, for example, with something like glow at 5 or 50. 10. 10. How exactly are you getting accurate consistent dose of each individual peptide? I recently switched stacks and am creating my own blends by mixing everything into one syringe and injecting once. But am I making this more complicated than necessary? Am I missing something? Or is it basically impossible to dose them precisely in a blend? I love to understand. Better thoughts. Right up your alley, dude.

[Will]

Yeah. Okay, here's the answer. So the glow. Glow is 10 milligrams of TB, 510 milligrams of BPC, 50 milligrams of GHKCU. Okay, so, yes, I understand this is confusing. For those who don't do this all day long every day here, I guess I'll just. We'll give instructions. I would add two mls of water. Okay, that's 200 units of water. Now, I told Brandy how. How I do this maths, Okay. I think of. So if I have a syringe and it's got 100 units, right? And those are just units. I'm talking every little integer, 100 units. Now I break that into sets of 10. So out of a hundred units, there are 10 sets of 10. Okay. So I look at that because my ultimate goal is I want to know what's in 10 units after you inject it. So 100 units is it equals to 10. 200 units is equal to 20. So what I do is I take the milligram of the. Of the peptide. So let's do these individually. Okay, It's a blend. But you better off. You need to do the math individually because just by going, let's calculate 70 milligrams. That's not important. Yeah, because you need to know how much GHKC you're getting, much bpc and how much tb. So if I would do. So we're going to do this three times, right? So here is the math. What I do is milligram. So 50 milligrams divide by the number of tens that you propose to put in the. Of water that you put in. So I would propose to put in 200 units. Units, which is 20 sets of 10. So 50 divided by 20 equals 2.5. So what that 2.5 means is in every. If you add 2 mils of water every 10 units you draw. That will give you 2.5 milligrams of GHKC. Okay. That is the dose that I think you should do. Yeah. So now, but if we add 2, 2 mils of water. Water to the GHKCU, you have to do it to the others. So you got to check the math to make sure. Because it's a blend. Right. So we're so 10. So do the same math the same way. All right. We got 10. 10 milligrams divided by 20 equals 0.5. Right. So that same 10, you're also getting 0.5 of a milligram of TB 500 and of BPC, because they're both 10 milligrams. So add 2 mils of water. Water to the glow. Okay. And I would say your dose is 10 units. And that 10 units will yield. That will give you 2.5 milligrams of GHKCU, a half of a milligram of BPC, 157 and a half of a milligram.

[JD Denham]

That's good, bro. You broke that down good. Sometimes you did. They're a little harder to fall. That was great.

[Will]

Okay. That was easy. I'm glad it made sense. I have no idea. No, that's great sometimes. But that's what I do is take the milligram of the bottle, divide it by.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

The arbitrary number. This is kind of a guess. And check though, sometimes. Right. Like how much water do you want to add? Make that round numbers.

[JD Denham]

Right. So if you did one mil, it just would.

Eczema is unpredictable, but you can flare less with epglis, a once monthly treatment for moderate to severe eczema. After an initial four month or longer dosing phase, about four in 10 people taking Eblis achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks. And most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with a monthly dosing.

Hempglis Lebricizumab, LBKZ, a 250mg per 2ml injection, is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or 40 kilograms with moderate to severe eczema, also called atopic dermatitis, that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin or topicals or who cannot use topical therapies. EBGLIS can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. Don't use if you're allergic to ebglis Allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. Eye problems can occur. Tell your doctor if you have new or worsening eye problems. You should not receive a live vaccine when treated with ebbs. Before starting Epglis. Tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection.

Ask your doctor about eglis and visit ebgliss.lilly.com or call 1-800-lilyrx or 1-800-545-5979.

[Will]

by 10, you know, you would.

[JD Denham]

Do you want to put two meals in a. In a.

[Will]

So the thing with the ghkcu, I would want. I want you to put two mils.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, for sure.

[Will]

Because you need. That needs to be not so densely concentrated or it's going to burn like hell.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, yeah.

[Will]

But if I just had to BPCTB. If it was just 10 migs. 10 migs. I would just put 1 mill of water can. Okay. Inject less 1 mil. So then. Then the math is you go 10. If 1 mil is 10. 10 divided by 10. 1.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Right. 10 units equals 1 milligram.

[JD Denham]

Right.

[Will]

So like. Yeah. The ones that burn, you want to dilute them a little bit more.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Other than that. And like high dose stuff, if you have mat C40. Right. You need to put as much water as possibly can in there. Other than that like. And again there are. The number of water is really just arbitrary. You just make it up. It doesn't matter. It's not like something works better ruin it if the mat. Yeah.

[JD Denham]

Because we're talking units or what. What, what does that equal in milligrams or. You know what I mean. So.

[Will]

And by the way, if anybody says oh, I take this many units of something, that means actually nothing. Like we have no idea what you're talking about if you don't tell us how much water you put in. But we can make some guesstimations based

[JD Denham]

on kind of what we know.

[Will]

Well, we've. Yeah. Talked about.

[JD Denham]

We may mainly get it but at the same time it's not units, it's milligrams.

[Will]

Yeah. And units. Units is just a Measure is only a valid measurement. Looking at a 100 unit insulin syringe like units out of context means nothing in the world. Right. Whereas grams mean something. Vol. Like milliliters mean something to everybody.

[JD Denham]

Right.

[Will]

Grams means I use in fact mean something to everybody. Everybody everywhere. Right. Units. It only makes any sense if you are looking, talking about a specific syringe.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Units are just little integers.

[JD Denham]

Okay, Drew that.

[Will]

Yep. Maya, you're up. I think.

[JD Denham]

All right. What are the different types of carrier oils used for testosterone? This is a different, different question. Do some oils have different levels of effectiveness? Which oils are have higher or lower pain levels? Great question, man. When injected. I would like to avoid seed oils when injecting. Thank you for the information. You can share on the topic. Great question, man. This is great. I mean you got what? COD seed, grapeseed, mct, sesame, sesame, castor oil, even castor. Yeah. I think my opinion on it is everybody just like peptides is very different. MCT is like a thinner oil and it's obviously going to be the healthier oil. I remember when they switched to mct I like was like what is this? Yeah, I was like dude, bro, I remember and. But that's going to be the healthier oil obviously. But some people just don't do well with the MCT oil and some people after time don't do well with MCT oil. I was one of those people and was really kind of throwing a curveball. Some people don't do well like with different esters, propanate and things. It's really just you, your body, how it responds. I don't think, I don't think each oil necessarily hurts different.

[Will]

No, but no, and I don't, I think there's a lot how you inject, how you inject. It's also don't jab it in slow,

[JD Denham]

like heat up the oil and go slow. Don't just go like you're gonna push too much oil there and you're gonna get pit man. It's gonna hurt.

[Will]

Yeah, but it also matters all of the ingredients and how much you put in things. So like folks, everybody, it's like you have the, there's the raw hormone, okay. You put oil in it and then there are two alcohol. You got benzyl benzoate and you have benzoyl alcohol. Okay. The benzo benzoate is what keeps the ester in solution. That is what makes it stay as a liquid.

[JD Denham]

Okay.

[Will]

So some things like sipionate and then there's different, different and higher dosed something like, you know Some dose that like sipinate 300 mgs per ML. First of all, I think is way too high.

[JD Denham]

I don't even think you can do it.

[Will]

Keep that in ester and not crash. Not falling out of its ester. You better put a lot of benzo benzoate in there.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

So benzo benzoate is what keeps it together. Okay. But so great, why don't let's all keep it together 100ml. Well that makes it hurt a lot more. So you better keep your ester. You better keep it together. But it's going to hurt more if you put more benz benzoate in there. But it sure will make it more stiff, stable. Right. The benzoyl alcohol is to protect the compound from degradation from any type of bacteria. And also there's a good amount of benzoyl alcohol in there. So that's also to help you not so to be basically sterile to go in India.

[JD Denham]

Okay.

[Will]

So those two matter. I could make. You can make the same compound and just put a higher level of Benz benzo it and that'll hurt like a mother higher level of benzo alcohol. It'll hurt like crazy. Crazy. The. And then. Then you have the different esters now. Yeah. I think the classic one has been cottonseed has been like the pharmaceutical standard. And I think now most of those guys are using grapeseeds. Like cottonseed oil is pretty thin and is not colored. Sesame seed oil is really yellowish. Grapeseed oil is a green tint. They are. I think that grapeseed oil is the least. Least. Well supposedly like the least allergenic. Although the MCT oil is hype is hypoallergenic. Yeah. A lot of people. Which doesn't mean that it's impossible to have a reaction to it. It means it's probably the least of option of because it's the most highly filtered. So MCT oil, it actually we should call it. What it actually is is Miglull 8, which is a 6040 blend. And the good is good. I mean makes a difference. We buy this for things and for one gallon, folks. For a gallon as well. Cost $400 for the Cadillac shit. The good stuff. And it's real thin. It's been filtered over and over and over and over and over. That's why there's so little impurities in there. And that's why a lot of people aren't getting reactions to it.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

So castor oil I have not like castor oil is used in like long ester things like decanoate which is a three month long. Esther. Like you're just gonna have testosterone. It helps, it helps with the depot. The slow release.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Because it's such a thick oil. I mean, think of it like, right. The thinner oils. Faster it's going to get in. It just is what it is. It's like, yep, something's thinner. It's gonna, it's gonna seep in faster. Let's see if I'm missing anything.

[JD Denham]

That was a great question.

[Will]

Yeah, no, that is really good. So grapeseed oil is like, is relatively hypoallergenic. Can go rancid though. So grape seed oil that can, they can go, it can go bad faster and easier than anything else.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

But so what you really. And then there's ethyl oiate, which I've heard nothing of bad things. There's. There's some potential bad stuff in there. So I would stay away with anything made with ethyl oleate, by the way. But mig law, miglo840 is MCT oil and it's a 6040 blend. And then you need to get, get it the like ultra refined, clean, human grade. That's, that's the Cadillac. That's the one that you should do. Unless you happen to be this, you know, have this, have some type of weird reaction. And my guess is though, it's usually not the reaction to the actual oil. It's reaction to the concentration.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Of all everything else and how you do it and how, how dentistry the testosterone is. I know people who've like made like test E500, right. It's like, yo, try this. I've tried that and holy. I couldn't sit down for two weeks. There is no point. There is a reason. If you look at everything, if you, you go look everywhere.

[JD Denham]

I've never seen this before.

[Will]

Right. Like scientists have figured this out a long time ago. Right.

[JD Denham]

Seriously, you didn't just make this up.

[Will]

You didn't. Right. There's a reason you're not the only first person to ever think about. So there is a reason that every different testosterone and every AAS is dosed at the same thing. Yeah. Historically, because that's at that dose. Well, it stays in solution and it works best into a human being's muscle.

[JD Denham]

Okay.

[Will]

It does not hurt. So something dose way too high. Now you. So you say, hey, Test 400. Right. Test 400 is classically 200 mgs of Test SIP, 200 mgs of Test E. They do that because a human can tolerate 200 MB of SIP and 200 MIGs test E. What it cannot not tolerate is 400 MIGs of SIP.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Or 400 MIGs of test E. So

[JD Denham]

I don't even think it would stay in solution, bro.

[Will]

I don't think. No. You would have to put a ton of benzo benzoate in there and that's why it would hurt really bad.

[JD Denham]

Also.

[Will]

That and the denseness. Faster esters tend to hurt more. Okay. Yeah, just a giving pro.

[JD Denham]

That's why a lot of people hurt with pro.

[Will]

Faster, faster ester is going to hurt more. You're going to get more of it. Right. Our body naturally cleanses itself and inject more and stop ops impurities. So people will ask, well, why does. So if I'm taking test prop 100. Okay. So props usually dosed at only 100 megs per milliliter versus test sip.

[JD Denham]

200.

[Will]

200, they go. Well, if it's the same price, what the hell? I'm getting twice as much with the sip. Why would I ever want to buy the prop? Okay, well, guess what? If we have something that's that fast of an estrogen getting in you that fast, our body doesn't have the chance to, to filter any of it out. So you're getting, you know, 95 of that of all of those 100 milligrams of test prop. But guess what? Test sip is such a slow release. Right. Six, seven days, your body's. You're getting about 60 of that.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

So you're really. They're basically equaled out. Right. SIP is actually not. You're not getting twice as much testosterone. So those kind of, those kind of equal each other out.

[JD Denham]

People are so like, like, like, they, they, they find what they like and they, they stick with what they like. You know, I would, I'd say try them all and then, you know, like everybody's likes his peptides, man. You're going to be different.

[Will]

Yep.

[JD Denham]

And again, I want to be redundant for a reason. A lot of it's going to sometimes depend on you and how you inject.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

If you don't know what you're doing, watch YouTube. There's videos everywhere.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

Do it properly and you're going to avoid some of that Pip. That probably could be avoidable, man.

[Will]

Good question, though.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, good question.

[Will]

Very good question.

[JD Denham]

Goes right.

[Will]

You know what, here's another thing that I just learned of the injector pens. Peptide injector pens. You and I, we've had hgh, we've had the tirzepatide injector pens. We've got Several of them. Did you use that? Very. I mean, basically it turns out that those pins are just kind of more of a pain in the ass.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Like the whole point of them is to make it easier on people, but

[JD Denham]

I think people have never done it.

[Will]

Yeah, people have never done it. But if you do that, you, you push, you put tiny little needle, right?

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

This long. That's it. Boom. And you push it in. Okay. Then you pull it out. And always I remember like Chad, other friends, it's like dripping out and you're like, wait a minute, did it get in me? And then I figured out the other day, you are supposed to hold it, put it in, hold it there for like 90 seconds.

[JD Denham]

Oh, wow.

[Will]

And it slowly actually drips into you.

[JD Denham]

Oh, wow.

[Will]

And you need to keep holding it there. So anytime that I ever use it, I just go wink. Basically I was getting nothing.

[JD Denham]

These things suck, dude.

[Will]

Just a waste. So if you have one of them pens, you need to put it in there and hold it. Yeah, they do. They say some ridiculous like on the actual instructions, it's like hold for three minutes. Who's gonna do that? But really, you know, at least 30 seconds. I would absolutely hold that. Because you do notice you push it in it just slowly. Because all guys like peptides just realize if you're getting like a red flag flush, you can reduce that easily by just injecting it way slower. Right. People who are leaner are going to get that way more of a flush because it's just hitting you, it doesn't have the fat to absorb it. And then slowly get it into, right? You lean and you just bam, Jam it down. It's a lot. Yeah, you could actually. That can be the difference between actually having a reaction. Just no reaction whatsoever. So new to yourself. Slow, slow, slow.

[JD Denham]

Listen, oils. Yeah.

[Will]

Oh, so especially the oils, right? Don't use a brand new needle too. I mean, that's huge. Those needles, the testosterone needles are so big, you reuse one, you're causing scar tissue. No, don't reuse and it'll just cut you up and then nothing will work as great. All right.

[JD Denham]

All right, last one. Thanks.

[Will]

Okay. For Tesla. And I have heard people saying both keep it in the fridge or after reconstitution or don't keep it in the fridge because it's a long amino acid chain and it can fold. Mine has been in the fridge the whole time. Is that right? Also, how long does it last after mixing? How about others? Any that don't last very long that I should know? About I just used the last of my retta that's been in the fridge for eight weeks. Is the efficacy still the same? You guys are awesome. Thanks for all your help. All right. I got so for the Testament. Testament long chain and is very. It is like fickle. Okay. And especially if you're getting like 20 the Tesla 20 milligrams. Right. The denser any peptide is the, I guess more volatile, the more sensitive it's going to be to gelling up. Essentially. There is a whole bunch of other reasons why something might have gelled up. Like if two of the same things. Right. Bottom for the same. First one of them gels up. Well, maybe that one was exposed to too much heat or light. Right. And degraded a bit. But for Tessa Morellon specifically, here is my suggestion. You add definitely room temp water. And I would keep it. I would keep it in a cool dark place. So that's something like you talking about

[JD Denham]

the water or the Tessa.

[Will]

Tessa. So once mixed. So first of all, room temp water, 70ish degrees water, once you then have mixed it, I would not store it in the fridge. I would store it in a cool. In a, you know, in an air conditioned room inside of a cupboard or something. Okay. Keep it underneath under 70 degrees and it should be fine. Now I would also use that though within 30 days.

[JD Denham]

Tesla. Yeah.

[Will]

I don't see why you wouldn't use. I don't see how like I don't. I mean even if you have the 20 milligram Teslarillin. Okay, 20 milligrams, you know, you should be doing it daily and you know, a half of a milligram is about as little as a person would want to go. So that would be 40 days. But if you. It'll still probably just be fine. Right. But, but that's the best. That's the best advice I can give you. I know this guy said, hey, mine's been in the fridge the whole time. Good for you. Good, good.

[JD Denham]

I don't think it matters that much, but I would kind of follow what Will said, but I don't think it matters that much. But you don't want to inject cold water because that's where you're going to have maybe have some gelling up. If you inject cold water. We've seen it and it's not necessarily the peptide's bad. It's just you did it wrong. And we all learn takes time. And sometimes we have.

[Will]

You realize that you tested it and redone it and redone it and it works. Every time. Also slowly adding the water in. Absolutely right.

[JD Denham]

Do not squirt that.

[Will]

Right. Are there any others that are. You know, I would say as a general rule, some are delicate, some not delicate. Right. Nad is. Is a bit. Is a bit delicate. Put enough water in there. The ones that may potentially gel up, like aod. Make sure you use like acidic acid. Sloop. I would say that, dude. I mean, I also have had Tide and Retta in my fridge or my neighbor's fridge and literally she didn't.

[JD Denham]

She.

[Will]

It was in there for a. And she did it again and it worked great.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

So like, we don't really hear forever.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, it still worked, dude.

[Will]

Yes. I've had PG141 in longer than a year.

[JD Denham]

Open answer. Generally, the general rule of thumb, whatever that's even worth, is 30 to 60 days. Is that mean that it's not going to work past that? Of course not.

[Will]

It doesn't.

[JD Denham]

Oh, it's 60 days. It doesn't work. I mean, again, I've left pet in there for, I don't even know, a long time because you don't use it often. And it worked just like it was fresh.

[Will]

So what I would do is I would buy. If you're buying peptides and you're going to use them, I would. Why don't you plan it out and use them but like buy enough that once you mix it that you'll use it in 30 days.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

So like, let's say you, you, you happen to want to do Tessa Rallin, but you only want to do 100 micrograms a day. I wouldn't buy the 20 milligram bottle. Once you buy the 10 milligrams bottle.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

And just. And then use that. Because a 20 milligram one will last you way too long. It'll be mixed and be sitting there way too long. Just like be smarter rather than dumber.

[JD Denham]

Yeah. Think through it.

[Will]

Yeah. It's math, but like, good. I mean, dude, that's a. And. And all new peptides that come out. Right. Some are, Are more volatile than others. And so that's why we're learning. When we first started doing this, there wasn't that many.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

Out. And there wasn't. And now we've had to adapt and learn that certain peptides does have certain finicky issues.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, absolutely. And we're always under construction and learning. That's why I love what we do. Always learn good stuff if you have.

[Will]

Okay, so look, we have a question from the audience and the question is, who is your Favorite employee.

[JD Denham]

It was on a post somebody posted.

[Will]

Somebody wanted to ask us each. Because JD has put. Sent out. Put some. Some. You know, some. Some pictures out of. Of our businesses.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

We own. We collectively own several businesses together. And that keeps us very busy. And those businesses do several different things. But JD is. But we can multi purpose some of those.

[JD Denham]

Yeah. We like to show who are the people that you don't see. You see us. And we come in here and allow

[Will]

us to do this.

[JD Denham]

We don't do all the back end stuff.

[Will]

We to.

[JD Denham]

Would like, love. Actually would not love to say that we did that, but we could just come sit down and we have people that allow us to kick ass and just do what we like to do. And I want. Well, we want to show you those people. Yeah. Because they are awesome and treat them like family. Oh, that's a question.

[Will]

So I know this is like asking you if you're. Which child do you like best? Okay. But I'll still play the game. But. But I will give them maybe a tie. This means I actually. I actually, like, love every dude. Everybody we have on a team is for you and Awesome. I think that they are all got a couple dudes.

[JD Denham]

Yeah, man.

[Will]

I mean, bad people. Yes. We've had some issues. Just like every other business owner. They understand this is a tough part. I'm gonna say it's a tie between Brandy and Rob, and I have a feeling that we both will say Rob, but Brandy, because she's just so effing competent. On the day one, she was like, screw it. Give me a screwdriver. I'll roll up my sleeves and just hang out in the insulation. She was, like, hired to be my executive assistant, but she can think and do. And yeah, she just doesn't care. She just gets the done. Yeah, Rob, this works.

[JD Denham]

Doesn't. Doesn't complain. Always smiling. Doesn't talk on anybody.

[Will]

Literally, like running around to help people all day long. Now you got to keep him focused.

[JD Denham]

Yeah.

[Will]

But yeah, there's a tough one because we.

[JD Denham]

We. We have been very strategic on who we hire because we are very. Or we try to be conscious of people that flow with the vibe and our morals and our integrity level. And like, we've missed the mark a couple times. Nobody's perfect, but we've just really been blessed to get rad people. Like, we're not saying it convenience because Brandy's sitting there behind the soundboard, but we like people that. That don't say, it's not my job. And that's pretty rare. In this world. Like people just get after it. And I had some stuff going on with my throat and Brandy brings me tea. That's just kindness. That's just love. So I love Brandy too. She just kicks ass. I love Mario. Mario is just a beast. I call him the beast. He. How I found Mario was I was on a podcast. I was asked to be on a podcast and it was my one of my first podcasts I'd ever done and I needed something after and I'm not good at any type of tech stuff and I needed to do something and I asked him if he could help me and I'd pay him. And he's like, no, I'll do. Do it for you. And he sent it to me quickly and I was like, wow, dude, let me pay you. And he wouldn't let me pay him. And I was just, wow, that's not like normal people. Like I'm not. It's just so rare these days. I just love people like that. And then long story short, he hit me back later and said, hey, have you ever, you know, branch out? I was doing a podcast at the time, but ever didn't want to do anything else. I, you know, I edit it but blah, blah. And I did that podcast fizzled out and I did, I, I talked to him, I sent him a text and now he works for us full time.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

And does so much, does editing behind the scenes and so love more. I could go on, on about all those.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

I mean really, they are all freaking amazing. We love them all. Literally. I'm not just saying that. We are blessed people here kick ass.

[Will]

Yes, they do. So yeah.

[JD Denham]

Yeah. And yeah, we as we continue to grow and if you know, know we are pretty damn cheesy because you gotta fit with the vibe, dude. Like you gotta be. We love people that I said not my job. Figure it out.

[Will]

Yeah, like Brandy came with lots of skills. We had no idea that she.

[JD Denham]

This podcast, if she came in her and Will, man, they, them two were like the dynamic newly kicked ass. So hope that answers your question. We gotta be a little bit vague, but we love them all. I'm not even lying, but good question from left field. Good stuff. Other than that, joints, school and Paul back to here. We'll be on the next round and we'll figure out what we're going to talk about it, but we're going to spend some time thinking on it cuz we want it to be rad.

[Will]

Yeah.

[JD Denham]

So other than that, we'll see you next time.

[Will]

Cool. Good night.
