Coach Brick's 6 A.M. boot camp comes with a new jug. Garth doesn't care. Until he hears the words "hunger hormone."
In this episode
The real fact
Ipamorelin
Ipamorelin is a lab-made peptide, five amino acids long. It tells your brain to release a burst of growth hormone, which helps your body fix muscle and bone and use fat for energy. It works by copying the signal from ghrelin, your hunger hormone. It isn't FDA-approved, and it's banned in pro sports.

Comedy, not medical advice. Amino Falls never sells peptides or links to anyone who does. Each episode explains one real fact for general education. Nothing here is a recommendation to use anything. Talk to a doctor about your own health.

Coach Brick
Rise and grind, maggots! New jug: the MORNING STACK! Ipamorelin!
Garth
Is it chocolate? No? I don't care.
Theo
Ipamorelin is a lab-made peptide, five bricks. It tells your brain to let out a burst of growth hormone.
Theo
Growth hormone is a busy one. It helps your body fix muscles and bones, and use fat for energy.
Danny
So how does Coach's jug do that?
Theo
It copies the signal from ghrelin. That's your hunger hormone.
Garth
The HUNGER hormone? I've been making that my whole life!
Theo
It's not FDA-approved, and it's banned in pro sports. And you make the most growth hormone in deep sleep anyway.
Garth
Eating and sleeping? I was BORN for this!
Danny
So the morning stack copies the hunger hormone... and Garth's workout is a sandwich and a nap.
Coach Brick
Pip! Cold plunge! Builds CHARACTER!
Pip(mumbled)
...cool.
