DDT Method Podcast Pros Lied About Their Doses—Here's What They Actually Took To Get There
For the science nerds → Advanced biohacking and PED education: https://www.skool.com/ddtmethod
Big Paul returns for the ultimate deep dive into insulin protocols, blood sugar manipulation, and navigating the current PED landscape. Learn the exact insulin dosing strategies that elite bodybuilders use, why insulin is being misused by 99% of people for physique enhancement, and how to structure carb cycling with rapid-acting insulin for maximum muscle growth without getting fat. Paul breaks down the synergy between growth hormone and insulin, the truth about Nandrolone's age-related side effects, and why the mitochondrial peptide stack is revolutionizing contest prep.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
• Why using Lantus to mask high fasting glucose is making bodybuilders pre-diabetic
• The exact rapid-acting insulin protocol: dosing at meals 1, 3, and 5 on high carb days to maximize glycogen synthesis
• How growth hormone and insulin work as counterregulatory hormones and why you should never take them together
• Why Nandrolone side effects seem to be age-related and how high estrogen exacerbates progesterone issues
• The mitochondrial peptide stack (GLP-1 + MC + SLU) produced the leanest physiques Paul has ever seen in 62 contest preps
