Dexter Jackson continues to share some insight on his career and usage in retirement.<\/h2>\n

It is clear that\u00a0Dexter Jackson<\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>is committed to keeping himself in the best shape possible in retirement. ‘The Blade’ has maintained a shredded physique<\/span><\/a> in his days off the stage and has been open in different conversations about his cycles and treatments.<\/p>\n

During his career, Jackson was able to battle some of the all-time greats on stage. He has collected victories in many major shows, including defeating Jay Cutler to win the 2008 Mr. Olympia<\/a><\/span>. Jackson also won the Arnold Classic<\/span><\/a> five times over the course of his career.<\/p>\n

In 2012, Jackson was able to win the Masters Olympia<\/a> title, which is still the last competition with the return set for August. Jackson stepped on stage for the final time during the 2020 Olympia<\/a> and no comeback is in the works as of now. There are many who hope Jackson will return to Masters Olympia in the future since the competition is officially back.<\/p>\n

In retirement, Jackson has dabbled with stem cell treatments and testosterone replacement therapy. During a recent YouTube video<\/a> on his account,\u00a0<\/em>Jackson gave some further information on his TRT usage<\/span><\/a> and PED cycles<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dexter Jackson Breaks Down Stem Cell & TRT Use<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Dexter Jackson learned that he has four discs in his neck that show signs of arthritis. This is when he began stem cell treatments<\/span><\/a>. After going through the process, it was a good outlook for Jackson.<\/p>\n

“They say it takes anywhere from six weeks to three months before you start really benefitting from the stem cell. But when I went over there, got an MRI, they did an MRI on me to check everything, right, found that I had a couple of, four of the discs in my neck that need, that has some arthritis in it as well.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Jackson admitted that stem cells impact different people in different ways. He does not know if credit should be fully given to the therapy but Jackson’s neck has improved.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not saying it\u2019s from the stem cells, it could have just been from rest or maybe it could be, who knows. Stem cells affect people differently, right? Just like anything else. So, it could have been from maybe a little stem cell treatment and rest.<\/p>\n

Hopefully that I got treated, hopefully, it\u2019s now going to prevent me, it\u2019s supposed to, prevent me from getting that way, hopefully, I\u2019ve caught it early. I got stem cell treatments in my neck and back.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
