According to studies in the New England Journal of Medicine GH use will:

Shed Bodyfat, Increase Muscle Tone; Boost your Energy, Strength, and Endurance

Reduce Wrinkles and Create Tighter, Smoother Skin; Help you Sleep Better, Improve Sex Drive and Performance, Improve Immune and Heart Function, Bone Density, Healing Time and Cholesterol, Improve Brain Function, Memory and Mental Focus

Wow! Sure sounds like a wonder drug to me! Yeah right, anyway here is some real world information for bodybuilders. Somatropin (rHGH) is produced by the pituitary gland and is responsible in adolescence for growth of tissues, protein deposition, and the breakdown of sub-q fat stores. As we age, growth hormone levels decrease but still remain active in the body, releasing in cycles during the day. Synthetic growth hormone used exogenously by bodybuilders is a 191 chain sequence of amino acids that replicates the bodies natural production of growth hormone.

Growth hormone has been in use by bodybuilders since the early 1980’s, though at this time, HGH was being extracted from the pituitary glands of cadavers and had enormous side effects, most prominently Creutzfeldt Jacob disease. This is a rare and fatal brain disease, it need not be discussed here since it is not possible in synthetic forms of rHGH, but if you want more info just run a search in google. rHGH stimulates growth in most body tissues which is due to an increase in cell number rather than cell size. This includes muscle tissue as well as internal organs, hence the dreaded GH gut.

Use of growth hormone by bodybuilders will cause increased muscle size, localized and overall bodyfat loss, increased protein synthesis, increased glucose output by the liver, increased insulin resistance and lowered thyroid output. Stored fats will be used as a primary fuel source, thus the body fat loss.

So is rHGH the wonder drug everyone lusts after? It certainly is beneficial but not for everyone. You must be willing to take risks to achieve maximum benefits from its use, as well as substantial financial investment. Do it right the first time or don’t do it at all! You will achieve faster and greater growth from cycles of steroids than with GH, though once you reach a plateau, not many products work better.

Ok, so now you have decided that this is the drug for you and you are ready to try it, so what next? Well here are some general guidelines to follow for maximal results from GH use:

Daily injections are a must to maintain stable blood levels as GH has a very short life span in the body. It will peak almost immediately after injection and will clear the body with a half-life of only 20-30 minutes. It is best injected first thing in the morning upon rising to raise levels that are very low from sleeping, and immediately after training. I do not recommend injecting before bed as many bodybuilders do, since that is the time of day that your body will release naturally high levels of growth hormone, and exogenous use will only block that release. If you take it in the morning when levels are low, after training when levels are depleted and then let your body release while sleeping, you are getting one extra release for free! GH is best taken long term, short cycles do not maximize the benefits of muscle cell increase, only fat loss. Here is how I take my GH for maximum benefits:

6iu ed injected sub-q, preferably in the stomach

3iu injected upon rising, 3iu injected immediately post-workout

10iu insulin taken 30 minutes after GH injection

25mcg Cytomel ed

use of androgens such as testosterone

The timing of GH and insulin injections is critical. If insulin is injected before the GH, your pancreas will stop release of insulin monitoring due to the exogenous source. GH when injected will mobilize stored glycogen release which will turn into glucose for energy. This will cause a rapid rise in blood sugar levels that will not shut down or stop rising due to the feedback loop being momentarily cut off. You will go hyperglycemic and end up in the hospital. You must first inject your GH, then the insulin; this will cause a rise in glucose release by the GH and will be controlled and shuttled into muscle tissue for repair by the later injection of insulin.

Use of Cytomel or some type of T3 hormone is critical since GH use will severely lower thyroid levels. Small exogenous sources are necessary to maintain normal levels and 25 mcg ed is sufficient. This will also aid in body fat loss by maintaining proper thyroid functioning.

Use of androgens is also necessary due to the promotion of anabolism by increasing muscle size that benefits the new cell number increase by the GH. Remember GH will not directly cause muscle cell size increase, just the number of cells, therefore, androgens are necessary to increase size. Testosterone or trenbolone are both highly androgenic and perfect for out stack.

One myth that needs to be cleared up: high doses of GH use and the 5 on 2 off program. First, if you find that you are not achieving results off of 4-6iu ed, than something else is the problem, not your dose. The use of high doses if primarily cause by heat damage to the protein chain causing denatured proteins. This will decrease the effect and you must use higher doses to achieve the same effect. Other reasons for high dose use are; fake gh, not using insulin, Cytomel or test, poor diet, improper timing schedule and the 5 on 2 off. This program was recommended by dealers as a way to move product by offering a lower cost cycle. No doctor in the world would recommend this protocol, Peak blood concentrations are reached in 2-6 hours after injection, and therefore, multiple daily injections are necessary to achieve stable release schedule and results. If you take your last injection Friday afternoon, and then not again till Monday morning, then you have negated all effects offered by the 6 hour concentration. Yes, you will achieve results using a 5 on 2 off program, but not as well as if you inject ed. It’s your money; I can only tell you how to optimize use.

Side effects of GH use include; carpal tunnel syndrome, tingling in the extremities, numbness in the hands and feet, increased organ growth, decreased insulin reception, acromegaly but only in extreme dose use, and decreased thyroid output causing fat accumulation. If you find that you are experiencing any of the above side effects, lower your dose immediately. This is especially important with carpal tunnel. If you feel like your wrists are hurting then lower the dose until pain subsides. You do not want to have that surgery, trust me.

GH is a fantastic product, beneficial for many reasons. Most people will experience thinning of the skin, increased vascularity, fat loss, permanent increases in muscle size due to the cell number increase, and overall feelings of wellness. You will probably need less sleep and feel supercharged all day long. I highly recommend GH use, but only when you have the money to do it right. 4-6 month cycles are optimal, year round if you are over age 35

I think there is a reason why our levels of growth hormone decrease naturally as we age...if people want to mess with it so be it. BUT why would you want to use something without fully knowing all the possibilities?! To me that is an ill-informed choice! :roll:

Thats just it I will never use anything without fully understanding all the possibilities! And why would you comment on something when you dont understand it your self?

very informative keats , its kind of ironic to me how many people there are out there that knock gear and things such as GH , often without understanding fully the substances in question , yet on the otherhand are quite happy to pop/down pills and potions touted as natural,legal, or over the counter without a second thought .

good post anyways keats

How to Stack:

GH is best taken in conjunction with insulin, anabolic steroids, and t3. Insulin is extremely effective with GH, as anyone here who has tried it will testify. This is because GH injections cause a down regulation of insulin sensitivity in the body. GH alone causes little growth of lean mass, however, when combined with insulin and steroids (and IGF-1 if you can find it), the results can be down right remarkable...esp. in the older bodybuilder. Start light with the humulin...5iu...and work up 1 iu a day till you get use to it. 7 to 10iu in the AM and 7 to 10 iu in the late afternoon, with split doses of GH is your best bet. When splitting GH/insulin doses, I use mid-morning and late afternoon after lifting.... both flat times in our natural GH production. The insulin overcomes the insulin-resistance caused by exogenous GH supplementation. If you are scared to take insulin thought, then Gh with Test and Glucophage is good. GH is good for cutting if used alone. Glucophage allows for improved glucose and amino acid absorption by the muscle tissue and does it safely. This is what you want. The half-life of GH is only 2 hours so spread it out. Avoid bedtime injections since we produce the bulk of our own GH in the first two hours of sleep. Since exogenous GH suppresses this, you should not take it before bed. For best results, use a 17aa oral during the cycle to stimulate the release of natural insulin growth factors. I would run the test throughout. GH/insulin/test is the proven synergistic combination. It is also wise to preload with testosterone before starting GH if you are going to do it. You should preload with the amount of time it takes for that testosterone to kick in, since most of us take longer acting esters for testosterone you should usually start taking the test 2 weeks before GH use. Likewise, you can accommodate it to fit your needs; the key is for the test to be kicking in the same time you are starting to run your GH. You can cycle you steroids however you want to depending on your goals, if you are going for a more massive look than you would run insulin for most of the cycle and use high androgens, but if you are looking for additional leanness at the end of a cycle you should stop the androgens and run a higher dose of GH or run less androgens. T3 is also another substance that should be used during GH cycling since GH lowers thyroid hormones. T3 should be used for shorter periods though, because it can permanently alter the endocrine system. The magic of GH for men is the ability to gain mass without fat or bloating when stacked properly with insulin, and steroids. GH also makes for amazing improvements in skin...smoothes wrinkles, burns stubborn spots of adipose tissue, gives that paper-thin contest look...and also gives one a real mood lift, a feeling of well being.

was talking in general deepsouth, its great tht you have a science backround too maybe a new forum titles home chemistry 101 :pfft: but seriously if you know more about it than most of us here , then share your knowledge about it , thats why we're here after all ! and i agree using anything dosent necessarily make you an expert

You can use a hammer and not know how the hell to build. This site is about informing.

GH stimulates growth in most body tissues, primarily due to increases in cell number rather than size. This includes skeletal muscle tissue, with the exception of eyes and brain all other body organs.

Nothing mentioned about turning bones to mush

Stallone Big on HGH

By Natalie FinnSat 26/01/08Rambo's shaping up to be a big draw for Major League Baseball players.

"HGH is nothing. Anyone who calls it a steroid is grossly misinformed," Sylvester Stallone, the action sequel's uncannily buff 61-year-old star, says in a recent interview with Time magazine.

He's referring to human growth hormone, a legal yet oft frowned-upon substance that stimulates bone and muscle growth and is banned in much of the sporting world.

"Testosterone to me is so important for a sense of well-being when you get older," said Stallone, who first played John Rambo in 1982 and put on 41 pounds of prescription-HGH-enhanced muscle to reincarnate the character for the franchise's fourth installment, which opened Friday.

"Everyone over 40 years old would be wise to investigate it, because it increases the quality of your life," he said. "Mark my words. In 10 years, it will be over the counter."

Stallone has been making the talk-show rounds to promote Rambo, which he also directed and cowrote, and in tight-fitting shirts and jeans he's looking as beefy as ever.

It's unsurprising that the Oscar winner has spoken out on behalf of HGH, considering he has apparently been a fan of it for some time.

In May, an Australian court fined the actor more than $10,000 for bringing 48 vials of synthetic hormone into the country without a permit. Stallone told customs officials at Sydney International Airport that he and his luggage were actually en route to Asia, where filming on Rambo was due to begin, and that a doctor had prescribed the substances to treat an unspecified condition.

"This stuff gives your body a boost and you feel and look good," he told customs agents, per their official report. "Doing Rambo is hard work, and I am going to be in Burma for a while. Where do you think I am going to get this stuff in Burma?"

Stallone also told reporters at the time that he's taken HGH "for years."

Fellow '80s action icon (and current governor of California) Arnold Schwarzenegger took note of Stallone's figure during the Las Vegas premiere this week.

"I don't think Sly has ever been that muscular and has had that little body fat," the Gubernator told Extra. "He looks very athletic and very powerful, so he's totally believable in the character he plays."

Meanwhile, reviews for the new Rambo—in which the former Green Beret is leading a near-hermit lifestyle as a river guide in Thailand before he's reluctantly called to action when a group of missionaries are captured by what must be the most sadistic soldiers in the Burmese army—have been not particularly favorable but nearly all make note of Stallone's physique.

Los Angeles Times critic Kevin Crust referred to the hero's "massive, vein-rippled forearms" and said the actor donned the character of Rambo "like a comfy old suit, a little worse for wear but eminently recognizable."

"His face looks like a misshapen chunk of granite, and his acting is only slightly more expressive, but the man gets the job done," writes the New York Times' A.O. Scott.

Stallone's cellular regeneration seemed to be one of the highlights of the film for the Washington Post's Desson Thompson, who said, simply: "His hair is excellent; so is his skin."
