On this episode we have one of the leading experts on hormones and peptides, Dr. Rand McClain!

Peptides are emerging into the health and fitness space as one of the most beneficial and impactful supplements on the market, because they have been shown to produce unbelievable results with minimal (if any) side effects at all. This is primarily because our body already makes these amino acids. But because they are so versatile, scientists can create any combination of them to formulate peptides for whatever desired effect they want. Again, making them extremely beneficial AND in demand.

Which is why we brought Dr. Rand McClain on the show! To give us a “Peptides 101” master class, while helping us also understand how they are connected and interrelated to hormones in the body.

So join us and learn what peptides are, how they work in the body, how they work, the connection to hormones they have, and the results they can produce for everything from body composition to health to longevity.

And make sure you order Dr. Rand McClains new book, “Cheating Death: The New Science Of Living Longer and Better”. HERE

(11:45) - I calculated my deficit to be 1750 calories using the TCM online calculator and am using one of your 5 day training programs, while also doing 2 days of LISS cardio at 1 hour each. I’m even weighing everything perfectly, yet am gaining weight or staying the same week to week. What could cause this to happen? Inflammation from higher training volume? Or am I just not in a big enough deficit?

(21:20) - How would someone go about  transitioning from a 5-day strength program (performance bodybuilding type) to a 4 day split. Would you make your workouts longer? More intense? Prioritize hypertrophy over strength? Basically how do I decrease volume/intensity without going ‘backwards’? 

I have always been a hybrid ‘athlete’, doing cardio multiple times a week on top of that. I am now training for a marathon and need to add in more runs into my weekly routine. I want to prioritize keeping as much muscle as possible, as well as possibly getting stronger.

(30:00) - With Lent coming up that means no meat on Fridays and days of fasting. In those situations, what is the impact of one day a week not hitting our protein needs for the day AND being in a significant deficit? Will on
