HGH, anyone ever done a cycle of it???

reversedarwinism

The guys that I know that have taken it have loved it. Anyone here ever done it? What forms do you reccommend? I haven't looked into the different products yet.

I've been lifting and riding my bike consistently for about 3 months and following this

http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/topicoftheweek37.htm

, and I've gained 15-20 lbs of muscle. Even though my results are obvious and I like them, I think I'm close to reaching a plateau. I've never taken steriods, but I'm very interested in HGH. I wanted to make sure that it increased bone density before I decided on it, and it does do that. Just wanted to check the pit for additional testimonials.

They did a show on MTV's True Life about this once.. The guy literally lost it while taking rounds of this stuff. He wanted to kill himself and crap. I say, go at it that natural way. Your body will push itself to the extremes it can handle. 20lbs of muscle is a lot. You have to be very careful with that stuff.

That was an episode on steroids, like d-bol. Alot of roid users take HGH after their roid cycle to normalize them. See, roids like on the mtv show are essentially testosterone (however you spell it) which, of course is produced by the balls. That why some longterm users get testicular cancer or hard balls and such. Plus, I think those are bad for bone density. HGH is produced by the pituitary inside the brain. Its like the starter hormone and is known as the "fountain of youth", not like I'm old (29). The product I've been shown by my friend uses anterior pituitary from a pig plus hypothalmus secretion. So that product is a "releaser". Don't know if thats how they all work or if some use straight pituitary. There are symptoms of going through puberty again, but it nothing like having alien testosterone put straight into you. I'm alomst positive women can take HGH, too. I actually have a recently FDA banned roid-like product that I've never taken, because its kinda scarry.

Ah, I apologize. Seems like you know quite a bit about it. Which is good, because no one should put something in their body that they don't know much about. eh?

Sounds interesting. I'll have to read more into that. Sorry to have fumbled the thread. Good luck with what you chose, but still be careful!

thanks. I still need to know more about it. Possible no one on this board has taken it, but this is like the only place on the internet I go except youtube and occationally myspace.

why cheat?

Why not just work harder in the gym?

I'm not a big fan of supplements other than simple protein.

I have a friend that has researched it and thinks it's great. He's never done it, but is interested like yourself.

It keeps Mary J. Blige lookin' young

Don't do it

A- You will become one of those guys
B- Nobody likes those guys

But as for first hand experience with the stuff I have none but I do have friends that use it. Even though they can't put their arms to their sides while walking, they still feel the need to do more. One of them thinks he'll never be able to stop using it for fear he will lose all the effort and $ he put into it.

If that doesn't change your mind you should ask Chris Benoit what he thinks...

When I was younger I used to try everything. A few cycles of roids, I would take ripped fuel to get tight, a shit load of protiene, creatine, etc etc etc...

Take my advice of this one man. I know you do not know me from a hole in a wall but just eat a natural healthy diet and various exercises. Workout like a madman, just stay away from all the extra garbage. I really know what I am talking about.
Protiene is fine but I don't even take that, I get mine from natural foods.
Eat healthy, exercise very often and you will look awesome and chics will want to bang you. Usually the good quality chics do not want a pumped up asshole.

ehh. Its not going to get like that. I mean I'm still not going to be an asshole that can't put his arms down by his side. I won't get that big, nor would I even want to. I have good control over my attitude as well. One cycle..., I've known several people that have done it and really liked it, and didn't keep doing it.

kristophed

Stay away from it, do it the natural way and you will have more respect for yourself and so will others.

A lot of people probably say they could do heroin or crack once too.

This is the guy you want to ask...

There is much more horror and torment to that story beyond HGH, i'm sure of it.

Seriously though, what's the big deal with freakish muscles? Sure being more studly/macho looking can be something worth obtaining to some people. But to what extent do looks matter over your real physical health? At what point do you stop and say, I'm done. If your vain enough to begin, I would think you might be too vain to stop.

Its cool that yall have shown concern. Though, I think that yall have the wrong idea. Even though I'm fairly impressed with my gains and most people around me have mentioned me getting "buff", I'm still fairly skinny. I can definitly go to the next level and not be "one of those guys". I'm 5'9" and weight the most I ever have at 145lbs., see what I mean?

Actually, once I did weight this much and it was muscle. It was all naturall like Acoustic Guy mentioned. I was 22 and my job consisted of working with, storing and tossing 30 - 60lbs concrete cylinders all day and working with 100lbs soil samples. Looking back, I barely ate then. I had a muffin for breakfast, fast food for lunch, and a meal for supper. I think most of the weight goes came from the beer. As soon as work was over, my uncle and I got drunk everyday. The muscles weren't like they are now, but overall it was the best shape I was ever in, even counting high school. I sometimes wish I could have that job back, but I can only lift weights now.

have you contacted a doctor?

To be perfectly honest....

If you're 5'9" 145 you're probably not going to get that much bigger safely. If you pack on a bunch of steroid muscle you're almost guranteed to hurt yourself. You skeleton can't catch up to the rapid growth.

I've played sports my whole life and the guys who get too big are worthless. When you go to the gym to lift like a bodybuilder you're not usually accomplishing anything except making yourself think you really strong.

My advice is to correct your diet and work your ass off to get in the best shape you can! Forget all the quick fix stuff because it will be obvious to those around you that it's not natural.

Well, that link that I posted with the original post has the nutritional part. I've always ate alot and the whole sugar immediately after work-out has been a huge help. That and the multi-vitamin. I've got more out of this workout than any other time I have worked out before and I credit it to the sugar more than anything.

I can go bigger and it still look natural. I've always been strong and fast, even when I was 125lbs. Hell, I went to regionals in powerlifting as 10th grader. I know that steriods are one thing that can make you look unnatural, but from my understanding HGH works on the signal hormone and will have more of the effect of... being 17 again. Don't know how else to put it. Well, bout to go and lift.
