Stack.
Everything I personally take to optimize training, recovery, and performance. No fluff — just what I use daily, why I use it, and where to get it.
Gorilla Mind.
My official supplement partner. Premium formulas, clean ingredients, no compromise. Code DD gets you a discount on everything.
The most researched performance supplement in existence. Increases strength output, supports muscle retention, and has emerging evidence for cognitive benefits. I never miss a day.
Shop Gorilla Mind →Gorilla Mind Rush or Smooth depending on the day. Rush for heavy lifting sessions where I need maximum drive. Smooth for longer sessions or when I want clean focus without edge.
Shop Gorilla Mind →My go-to on days I'm not lifting but need to stay locked in. Cleaner than coffee, better than most energy drinks on the market. No crash, no junk fillers.
Shop Gorilla Mind →Sodium, potassium, and magnesium replenishment during extended training or runs. If you're sweating and not replacing electrolytes, your performance and recovery will both suffer.
Shop Gorilla Mind →Nova Peptides.
What are peptides? Short-chain amino acids that signal the body to do specific things — accelerate tissue repair, optimize sleep quality, support fat metabolism, and more. This is advanced optimization territory. I use them personally as part of my recovery stack.
Important: Peptides are research compounds. I'm sharing what I personally explore — this is not medical advice. Do your own research, consult a healthcare professional, and understand what you're taking before you start.
For those who want to explore the next level of recovery and performance optimization. I source from Nova Peptides — quality and purity matter here more than anywhere else. Use my link to explore their catalog.
Visit Nova Peptides →Peptides aren't a beginner supplement. Get your training, nutrition, and sleep dialed in first. That's where 90% of your results come from. Peptides are a finisher, not a foundation.
Foundation FirstVitamins & Minerals.
The unsexy stuff that keeps everything running. All taken at recommended doses. These aren't optional for me — they're the baseline.
Hormone regulation, immune function, mood. Most people — especially in low-sun environments — are deficient. Non-negotiable.
Sleep quality, muscle recovery, stress regulation. Glycinate form absorbs better and doesn't cause the digestive issues oxide form does.
Testosterone support, immune function, wound healing. Athletes deplete zinc faster — replace it.
Works in tandem with D3 — directs calcium to bones, not arteries. If you take D3, you should be taking K2.
Energy metabolism, neurological function, red blood cell production. Critical if you eat limited animal products.
Muscle contractions, nerve function, heart rhythm. Especially important on high-training volume weeks and during extended cardio.
Cortisol regulation, stress adaptation, recovery support. On high-stress weeks — work or training — this makes a noticeable difference.
Gut health, satiety, blood sugar regulation. If you're tracking macros and your fiber is low, supplement it. Your gut runs everything else.
