After reversing his own Crohn's disease with peptides and walking away from a career as a global CIO, he now runs three manufacturing facilities and custom-formulates the compounds IFBB pros run into the Olympia. In this episode he pulls back the curtain on what actually works — and what's quietly wasting your money.Drew Donaldson and Mike go deep on the compounds everyone's arguing about: how SLU-PP-332 and BAM15 really work (and why stacking them at the same time backfires), the SS-31 dosing most people get completely wrong, why "less is more" beats the kitchen-sink approach, GLP-1s and muscle preservation, the bioglutide controversy, and the senolytic course that fixed Mike's knees. This is one of the most protocol-dense conversations DDT Method has ever published.KEY TAKEAWAYSWhy stacking SLU-PP-332 and BAM15 together quietly works against youThe weekly split Mike used to drop 10 lbs in two weeks Why "the sweats" on SLU-PP-332 are a red flag, not a sign it's workingThe SS-31 dose almost nobody runs Why 9 out of 10 of Mike's clients are told to take something OUT of their protocolHow to sequence SS-31 and MOTS-c to blow up your resultsThe best GLP for maintaining muscleCHAPTERS00:00 Intro00:29 SLU-PP-332 vs BAM15: Dosing & Mechanism05:26 From Crohn's to Peptide Manufacturer11:22 Keeping IFBB Pros' Organs Healthy16:39 Protecting HDL & Cholesterol on Cycle23:33 Building a Stim-Free Fat Loss Stack29:31 SS-31 & High-Dose Recovery37:20 MOTS-c & the Kitchen-Sink Problem42:15 GLP-1s, Mazlutide & Muscle Preservation45:46 The Bioglutide Controversy50:36 FOXO4-DRI & Fixing His Knees55:26 Biohacks: Sleep, Cold & EMF Beds60:13 Where to Find MikeCONNECT WITH MIKE METZGERInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pepper_apr/Website: https://aprhealthsolutions.comThis content is for educational and informational purposes only and is not medical advice.
