Josh Lenartowicz’s shocking revelation about fake substances.
IFBB Pro bodybuilder Josh Lenartowicz, was just recently interviewed by Dennis James on the Menace Podcast. during the interview, Joshua revealed some shocking details about what he was taking during his contest prep.
Australian bodybuilding star, Joshua Lenartowicz, just a few years ago, was one of the top bodybuilders in the world. Always placing in the top five and winning the occasional event, Joshua was always a threat in every event he competed in.
Joshua’s life would be turned upside down after he won the 2019 Bigman Pro in Spain.
When Joshua arrived back home and was going to start his prep for the 2019 Mr. Olympia, he was suffering severe headaches.
Unfortunately, Joshua had a tumor in his head, actually his skull, and after the procedure, he was put in a medical induced coma for a week after some complications.
Thankfully, Joshua made a full recovery and returned to live a normal life. Unfortunately, Joshua had to skip the Mr. Olympia, but returned to the stage in 2020 at the Arnold Classic.
Joshua reveals he was taking fake Growth Hormone
Moments after he arrived at the hospital for his operation, Joshua told the doctors what protocols he was on, in regards to PED’s and other substances.
The doctors did a full test on Joshua and after speaking to the medical staff, they revealed that he had no GH in his system.
Joshua was shocked by their revelation, as he was in full prep for the 2019 Mr. Olympia. During the interview, he confirmed that he was taking GH to Dennis James during the interview.
With the doctors results proving that he had no GH in his system, Joshua confirmed that the majority of PED’s in Australia are of a low grade or fake.
What shocked Joshua even more is that he purchased the growth hormone from a pharmacist, thinking that they were of a good quality.
A lot can be learned from Joshua’s revelation. There is a lot of fake substances being sold, and even a top level pro, such as Joshua Lenartowicz was supplied fake products.
Luckily, Joshua was not injured with the substances he was taking, as it could have complicated matters for him.
Joshua also confirmed that contrary to what he was told, the doctors confirmed that the drug protocol that he was on prepping for the Mr. Olympia, did not contribute to his tumor.
The doctors also suggested that Joshua should continue to compete when he makes a full recovery, and he did just that by competing at the 2020 Arnold Classic.
With all that happened and also after welcoming their son into the world, Joshua needed to take a break from the sport.
The good news is that Joshua confirmed to Dennis James that he is not retired, and hopes to be back on the bodybuilding stage very soon.
The video is set to start at the discussion about fake growth hormone.
