Do You Actually Need More Gear to Grow? | J3U Podcast Ep. 225

from J3 University · host John Jewett III

Most bodybuilders think they need more gear to grow… but that’s usually not the real problem. In this episode, we break down why many competitors stay stuck with the same physique year after year despite increasing PED doses. We cover offseason cycle design, lifestyle audits, recovery, GH use, side effects, and why better tracking often matters more than adding compounds. If your progress has stalled, this episode will probably change how you approach your next offseason.
