I keep seeing it in this industry, guys in their 20s and 30s already on TRT, growth hormone, performance enhancers. Not for medical reasons. Just to look better or feel better, faster.
Here’s the question I don’t think enough people are asking: if you’re already relying on that at 25, what’s the plan at 50? You skip the years where you actually build muscle naturally, there’s nothing to fall back on later.
And coming off isn’t simple either. A lot of guys feel worse than before they started.
I’m 44. I train hard most days, and yeah, some mornings I’m tired too. But I fixed my sleep and food first, stayed consistent, then got tested. Results came back good without taking any shortcuts, just the basics done properly.
This is also why I think it matters who you hire. A coach who’s never trained drug-free doesn’t actually know what real recovery feels like at this age. I’ve done and apply regularly many different methods like pauses, drop sets, giant sets, rest-pause methods, strength phases… all tested how my own body responds and recovers from each one. That’s exactly what goes into how I program for my clients over 40.
Guys If someone’s pushing you toward a needle before you’ve even sorted your sleep, food, and training, that’s not coaching!
Save this if you know someone who needs to hear it.
