Welcome back, warriors. In Peptide Q&A Episode 27, JD Denham and William T. Haas dig into real questions from real people navigating fat loss stalls, hormone optimization, endurance training, peptide stacking, and long-term health. This episode is raw, conversational, and experience-driven exactly how these Q&As are meant to be.


We cover:


🔥 GLP Plateaus After Weight Loss: Why fat loss stalls after Tirzepatide or Semaglutide, how lost muscle slows metabolism, and when switching to RETA makes sense

⚖️ RETA vs Tirzepatide Strategy: Dosing guidance, when to bump slowly, and how RETA helps preserve muscle while leaning out

💪 Fat Loss Without the Gym: How bodyweight training, fasted movement, and protein timing matter when formal workouts aren’t realistic

🧠 Secretagogues + RETA: Why running CJC/IPA or Tesamorelin alongside GLPs protects muscle and improves long-term body composition

🔥 Cardio Myths & Fat Loss: Why steps don’t equal fat loss, why lifting beats cardio, and how muscle drives calorie burn even at rest

🧬 HGH for Longevity & Body Recomp: Ideal dosing ranges (1–2 IU), why HGH is a long game, early side effects to expect, and realistic timelines

🩸 TRT at a Young Age: When bloodwork matters more than age, why 32 isn’t always “too young,” and how lifestyle impacts testosterone

⚠️ Estrogen Spikes on TRT: Symptoms of high estradiol, when to use an AI, why gyno risk is real, and how to find your personal sweet spot

🧪 RETA Dosing for Lean Athletes: Why ultra-lean individuals often need lower, microdosed RETA instead of aggressive weekly dosing

⚡ Energy & Focus Alternatives: Why peptides won’t replace Adderall, plus real-world discussion on Modafinil, CMAX, PE-22-28, and NAD

🏃 Endurance & Hybrid Athletes: SLU-PP-332, mitochondrial peptides (MOTS-C, SS-31), Wolverine stack support, and muscle preservation for runners

🦴 Injury Prevention for Runners: Why healing peptides and GH support matter when mileage is high and joints take a beating

🧬 Tapering Off GLPs: Smart RETA tapering, appetite control during exit phases, and why Tesofensine or SLU can help bridge the gap

🧪 Peptide Blends vs Individual Stacking: Real-world results with Wolverine and Glow blends, cost efficiency, and why “perfect pH” matters less in practice

📏 Reconstitution Made Simple: Practical math for blends, vial strength breakdowns, and how JD & Will actually dose in the real world


💡 Peptides don’t replace discipline they amplify it. Diet, protein intake, sleep, hormones, and consistency still run the show.
