We also dive into questions we received over the past week on peptides, nutrition, TRT, etc... If you have any questions, please send me an email Joshua@GSDMode.com and here are the questions we jump into this week:   -Question: When are you guys going to do a gear podcast? (I asked if He had any specific questions on "Gear") yeah I\u2019d say a good first cycle , thoughts on tren ?, is it worth it low dose maybe ? Mast .   -Question: question: Your thoughts on using Trenbolone Enanthate at 150mg\/week, instead of using Testosterone Cypionate 150mg\/week for TRT?    Question: Hey guys! Once again thanks for all the great info! I just had my shoulder surgery yesterday and started my aggressive healing protocol this morning. I am in an adductor sling for the next 6 weeks. I start PT in a week, but I can take my arm out to breath and clean in 72 hrs. Can I pin my lats or tricep? I want to administer the bpc as close as possible but atm I can\u2019t seem to do it one handed and in my current state. I have been sticking to my stomach but I know the closer the better.   Question: Really appreciate all the great practical information. Could I please have your opinion on the compound Tesofensine. Any info will greatly appreciated. Thank you   Question: Hi Josh, Hi Jim. Amazing work all the time Gentlemen! Have you heard of \/ researched taking LDN (low-dose Naltrexone) for inflammation reduction? And, have you heard of \/ researched FLGR-242, a modified version of Follistatin-344, which has been available to the public since approximately November of 2025.   Question: I've been taking 200 mcg of cjc 1295 and 200 mcg of ipamorelin before bed 5 days on and 2 days off for about a month. I was not sleeping well on the nights i took it. 2 days ago I started taking1mg of tesamorelin and 200mcg of ipa before bed and cjc and ipa in the morning. I woke up with a headache both mornings. I was take half the amount of tesa and see what happens. Just curious what you thought was causing the headache. Thanks for all the good info guys!   Question: I\u2019ve been on Reta for 4 months and have lost 15 pounds and 2 belt sizes, but my blood pressure is up and was a little high when I started it. If I stop Reta what should I take instead? I am going to start Tesa and wolverine stack for injury and to address gut problems. Still need to lose 30 pounds from waist up! 57 years old. Thanks!   Question: Hi guys! You talked about SS-31 and MOTS-C and running one before the other. I'm currently running SS-31 and planning to add in MOTS-C after a few weeks. I'm hearing that adding in NAD+ on opposite days of MOTS-C is beneficial. Have either of you done this? And if so, would you suggest that I add in the MOTS-C first and then a couple of weeks later, the NAD+? What are your thoughts? Thanks so much!   Question: Is there anywhere to look at the Reta statin data for plaque? My buddy had a widowmaker at 46 last month; it has me worried about my heart health at 54. I have a mild blockage in my LAD. I am on Tirz and a statin as is. If there is a way to reduce it at all I would be willing. Thanks!! Love the show!
