At long last, the HGH masterclass. This one sat on my back burner for a long time. I finally sat down and put everything I know about human growth hormone into one video.

I come at this with a damaged pituitary. Seventeen years of football left me with a partially empty sella. My IGF-1 in my twenties never cracked 120. HGH changed things for me in a way the peptides never did.

But I don't think you should start there. Run ipamorelin, CJC-1295, or tesamorelin first and learn how you respond. Plenty of people do fine on peptides well into their forties.

We get into how the GH system actually works. Why IGF-1 matters more than GH itself. Why the pituitary stops responding as you age. Then dosing, cycling, reconstitution, and what to track.

I also cover the fears. The pituitary shutdown worry is overblown and the research backs that up. HGH will not make you stronger on its own, and the trials are clear about that. Body composition takes about six months, which is why most people quit too early.

This is my opinion and my own experience. It is not medical advice.

My friend Joel Clark got out of bed one morning and fell over. His left leg had stopped working. It was Lyme disease, and it left him 25 pounds lighter and running on empty.

Joel is a founder who built and sold RVshare, a marketplace for renting RVs. Two years ago he emailed me asking for coaching. Today he's one of my best friends.

In this one we cover his whole path back. We talk about why low testosterone keeps men from starting TRT. We get into the fertility answer most doctors won't give you. Joel explains why zone 2 cardio hit him almost as hard as testosterone. Zone 2 just means easy cardio you can talk through.

Then we go deep on football and concussions. I walk through the peptide stack I'd give every athlete, including Cerebrolysin, BPC-157 and SS-31. Some of that evidence is still early, and I say so.

We also cover the prepper peptide stack, peptides for kids and the menopause cliff. Plus why so many clinics still push aromatase inhibitors, drugs that block estrogen.

It's two guys who love this stuff talking for two and a half hours. If that's your thing, you'll enjoy this one.

Pinealon is one of my regular peptides, and most people have never heard of it. It's a tiny three-amino-acid bioregulator from the Khavinson group in Russia. It works on the neurons in the thinking part of your brain.

In this masterclass I cover everything I know about it. Despite the name, it doesn't work on the pineal gland. That's Epitalon. If Semax is a shot of espresso for the brain, Pinealon is the insulation in the walls.

Most of the research is cell and animal work. It protected neurons from low oxygen, high homocysteine, and Alzheimer's-type damage. The human data is thin, and I'm upfront about that.

Then we get practical. I cover who it's for and who will notice less. I share my three dosing tiers and how I cycle it two to three times per year. You'll learn why timing is so personal, how to reconstitute it, and what to stack it with. I also answer the questions I get asked most.

I have a family history of dementia and a lot of concussions, so this one is in my rotation every year. It's a quiet peptide. It works in the background to protect your brain over time.

Vilon might be the most underrated peptide I use. If I had to sum it up in one line, it acts like BPC-157 and Thymosin Alpha-1 rolled into one.

In this masterclass I walk through everything I know about it. Vilon is a tiny two-amino-acid peptide from the Khavinson bioregulator family. It works on the thymus, the gland that trains your T-cells. That gland shrinks as we age, and our immune defense slowly fades with it.

Most of the research is cell and animal work out of Russia, plus a few small human trials in diabetics. I’m upfront about that, including one mouse study that raised a cancer question.

Then we get practical. I cover who it’s for and who should skip it. I share my three dosing tiers and how I cycle it. Early fall, right before flu season, is my favorite time to run it. You’ll learn how to reconstitute and inject it, what to stack it with, and what to avoid. I also answer the questions I get asked most.

It won’t feel dramatic in a few days. But for immune support and inflammation over the long haul, I think it deserves a lot more attention.

Over 400,000 of you have used my AI chat app since it went live. I don’t read your individual messages. But the app sends me an anonymized report of what people struggle with most. So I took the top questions from the last week and answered them myself.We start with mitochondria. I walk through how I rotate SS-31, MOTS-c and SLU-PP-332. I also explain why I think a lot of people who stall on a GLP-1 have a mitochondrial problem. Then we hit reconstitution math, cloudy vials, and why some peptides sting.From there it’s growth hormone. Tesamorelin alone versus the tesamorelin and ipamorelin blend, plus what to do when it wrecks your sleep. On the GLP side I cover how I raise my retatrutide dose and use taurine for the heart rate bump. Then how I step down without the appetite rebound.We also get into where to inject BPC-157, my actual favorite sleep peptides, and free versus total testosterone. Plus the hormone targets I like for women in perimenopause.I close with fertility. After years on TRT, I went from zero sperm to the top of the reference range in nine months. I walk through the exact stack I used. Your questions, my honest answers.For research and entertainment purposes only.

Most people know oxytocin as the love hormone. That’s only a small part of the story.In this masterclass I break down what I’ve learned using oxytocin myself and digging through 70 years of human data. It was the first peptide hormone ever made in a lab.

It’s still an FDA-approved drug today.Oxytocin works like a volume knob. It amplifies whatever state you’re already in. A safe setting means deeper connection. A stressful setting can mean more anxiety.We cover how it works in the brain and body, who it’s actually for, and who should skip it. I walk through dosing in micrograms and IUs, nasal spray versus injection, and the mixing mistake that has people taking five to ten times too much.I also get into the uses nobody talks about.

Cutting 120 to 150 calories at a hard meal without the nausea of a GLP-1. Post-workout dosing for muscle recovery. Getting things moving when a GLP-1 slows your gut.Plus why every other day beats daily dosing, how I stack it with PT-141, and the trick I use to make cardio feel rewarding.If you’ve been curious about oxytocin, start here.

Samantha Lander is one of the most compelling voices in functional health and peptide coaching, and her path to getting here is unlike anyone else in the space.

She’s a functional diagnostic nutritionist who went from addiction, federal prison, and a money laundering charge to building one of the most effective coaching practices for people who’ve tried everything and still can’t get results.

She works primarily with perimenopausal women and complex cases, the clients who’ve been to every doctor, run every lab, and still feel stuck. Her approach starts with the gut, the hormones, and the trauma history before a single peptide enters the conversation.We get into her full origin story, why your gut has to be addressed before you touch a GLP-1, the SIBO connection most coaches are missing, how to actually test estrogen (all three, not just one), and the AOD and five amino 1MQ combinations that are quietly doing more than the headline peptides.

We also talk about MCAS protocols, what to do when patients react to everything, and why sitting in your discomfort sober is still the most powerful biohack.This one goes places most episodes don’t. Stay until the end.

Most people treat IGF-1 LR3 like a muscle peptide you just add to the cart. I want to slow that down a bit.In this masterclass I break down IGF-1 LR3 and IGF-1 DES. Both are modified versions of the IGF-1 your liver makes. They work by dodging the binding proteins that keep most of your IGF-1 parked and inactive. More free IGF-1 means more signal actually reaching the muscle.I cover who these make sense for and who should skip them. I walk through my dosing tiers, starting at 40 to 50 micrograms. We get into timing around training, why you always dose with carbs on board, and the day my wife and I ended up buying candy mid-workout.I also explain why your IGF-1 blood work might drop while you run these. Plus the feedback loop behind it, why I cycle four to six weeks, and how I stack them with TRT and growth hormone.One honest note. There are zero human trials on either compound. Most of the data comes from rats and cell cultures, and the rest is experience, mine included.Done right, these are a five to ten percent edge on top of a solid foundation. That’s it, and that’s still worth having.For research and entertainment purposes only.
