About this episode

The episode explores the appeal and science of peptides for ageing cyclists, including risks and anti-doping considerations.

Go check out our FREE Skool community, it's got amazing tools in there and a thriving community of cyclists - https://www.skool.com/roadman/about Peptides are everywhere—from collagen supplements and GLP-1 medications to experimental compounds promising faster recovery, fat loss and injury repair. But what does the science actually say, and where does legitimate medicine end and clever marketing begin? In this episode, we explore why peptides are so appealing to ageing cyclists, the evidence behind collagen, the risks surrounding BPC-157 and TB-500, and what competitors need to know about anti-doping rules. We also look at longevity clinics, grey-market products and the powerful desire to keep performing as we age.
