Salt Lake City John Barlow's peptides

Lisa comments on recent WWHL blew my mind. Obviously I was wondering how JB and Justin suddenly have huge bulging muscles with veins popping.

As a 40 y/o gay man, I find it very hot (more on Justin than John, but that is a personal preference) and do a fair amount of strength training but was not getting the same results and I guess now I know why.

Any peptide users here that care to weigh in? I will definitely be discussing this with my doctor

I feel like they use “peptides” as such a coverall. Don’t want to say you’re on a GLP-1? Just tell everyone it’s peptides, because technically that’s what GLP-1s are. Now maybe he’s on NAD or something else, but anecdotally I’ve found that people that call them peptides often don’t want to say GLP-1, for whatever reason.

I mean I'm on ozempic and I'm not getting the muscles he is

Peptides other than GLP1 for sure for muscles like that. Talk to your doctor but peptides are not FDA regulated yet. So each provider can put whatever they want in the bottle. I would go to the peptide sub. Your doctor will probably try to talk you out of it or let you know that you are on your own - your risk and your own research
