Season 3 Ep. 7 - "Why Not Me?" | Jo Palacio is Ready to Take on Nick Walker at the O

Jo Palacios returns to the D2 Podcast for one of our favorite conversations yet. Just weeks away from stepping on stage, Jo opens up about the mindset that's fueled his incredible improvements, why this has been his best prep ever, and what it really takes to compete against names like Nick Walker. We dive into everything from training philosophy, nutrition, recovery, building an IFBB Pro physique, and why Jo believes success starts with beating the person you were yesterday—not everyone else on stage. But this episode goes far beyond bodybuilding. Jo shares lessons on discipline, fatherhood, handling adversity, earning respect, surrounding yourself with the right people, and why the mentality of "Why not me?" can completely change your life. Whether you're chasing your first bodybuilding show, building a business, or simply trying to become a better version of yourself, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom and motivation. 🔥 Sponsors & Discount Codes: • Use code: D2 at Iron Society Apparel • Use code: DEVO10 or NICK10 at Hosstile Supplements • Use code: D2 at Bashmouth • Use code: D2 at BioPep Peptides 🔥 Don’t forget to LIKE, COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE, and turn on notifications so you never miss an episode of the D2 Podcast. #D2Podcast #Bodybuilding #Podcast #Fitness 🎥 Produced by Luke Guagliardo Productions LLC Links: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6K6rUwahLC70rP7mYCXUEA Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dumbbells-doobies/id1687217913 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dumbbells.and.doobies/ Support the podcast: Hosstile Supplements: https://hosstile.com Iron Society Apparel: https://theironsocietyapparelco.com/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnmVA7NNtKQlKO-BGHRTqeosGO1bIaN1ozbpX-CUqPvYo9lnDSsFmX06AP6TM_aem_VJecFGluYYXosSjX8dTajQ Bashmouth website: https://bashmouth.com Use code: D2 at check out!
