“We Would Save So Much Money”: Mr. Olympia Contender With Mutant-Like Physique Reveals Real Side of Keeping Up With Bodybuilding

In a conversation with the fitness coach, Justin Mihaly, pro bodybuilder, Nick Walker revealed the facets of bodybuilding which influence their career. Mainly, the duo discussed the importance of growth hormones and how they are different from drugs. Meanwhile, an interesting fact came up on why bodybuilders are always going broke. 

The YouTube interview, Grow or Die Podcast, surfaced hours ago, on the coach’s self-titled channel. Mihaly elucidated what bodybuilding is actually about; also claimed that every athlete has to gravitate towards growth hormones at some point, to excel in their game. 

Nick Walker and Justin Mihaly talk about growth 

As per the interview, the 2021 Arnold Classic winner laughed when Mihaly opined, “honestly, you have to be able to afford growth hormone at some point to get really good at this sport” Besides that, he also shared that the sport is more about the discipline and consistency of the athletes, and it charts an athletes road into the game. However, after a time, growth hormones are of great help, to overpower their competitors. 

Due to the growth hormone requirements, both athletes agreed that this is why “everyone’s so broke.” Hence, the 28-year-old beast added, “If we didn’t need growth hormones, we would save so much money literally” On that note, the coach and host of the interview cracked a joke saying that’s the reason earlier bodybuilders dyed their hair blonde because it contained “free growth hormone”

However, getting to the serious point, Walker eventually stated that even though growth hormones are “a different story” and the drugs play a role in the sport, it is not as needed. “I don’t think people need as much as they think they need to progress to where they need,” the 2022 Mr. Olympia runner-up told. In contrast, an Instagram post by the athlete last month left the bodybuilding community speculating over his steroid usage.
