I hate to even ask but I would like another opinion on HGH. Even if my numbers I'm lifting don't go up, I want bigger arms. Looking at the side effects for HGH, it doesn't seem like there's anything on the list I don't experience on a daily basis(for years now) anyway, with the exception of water retention because I don't fully understand what that is.
Supposedly the side effects go away after you take it, and there aren't any long term side effects or permanent damages. Is this true?!
In the short term, the first doses is where you see the biggest gains, and it stays with you until you stop being active, then the gains taper off but are still more than you would get without it.
My thoughts are that I can take it for two 5/3/1 cycles and SWOLE up while swoling up, then maintain and swole up naturally after that like I have been doing with minimal visible swoleness, even tho I'm getting stronger every day.
http://www.somatropin.cn/effectsAccording to that site (and other sites) the side effects are:
carpal tunnel; I already occasionally have grip issues, picking up a milk jug in the morning, as well as random tingly feelings in different areas, my legs seem to fall asleep faster than I think they should(possibly just getting old?)
Baby naps; I take short naps 10-20-30 minutes all the time, it's how I get most of my sleep.
Deeper sleep; it doesn't get much deeper, I will sleep through WWIII when the canadians attack.
Hypoglycemia; might be unrelated but several times a day I will get hunger attacks, even eating 2,500 cals a day on workout days.
Morning aches; I'm a deckhand working on US Western Rivers, I can tell you some horror stories about morning pains. A good reason I don't sleep 6-8 hours straight is to avoid the stiffness and aches associated with sleep lol.
As far as the cancer goes, I don't have any yet, who really knows about that stuff anyway.
I am basically trying to tell myself it's ok and there isn't anything to worry about if I took a series of <relatively> small doses to get long term effects.
Can you argue against it and tell me why I would not want to take it?
Good Evening.
Before we go any further, taking Synthetic Growth Hormone, without a prescription, is illegal, and thus can not be discussed, encouraged, or debated on JSP per the site policy.
However, I will advise you of this -
Synthetic GH injections will ultimately yield your body becoming dependent. In addition, you will greatly increase the rate of growths, including that of malignant cancerous growths, and can also promote internal organ damage. If used regularly, you will see significant structural changes in certain parts of your body, such as your face/jaw and hands. You may also cause hormonal issues in the body which can negatively affect your mood and lead to depression, anger, etc.
If you are looking to NATURALLY increase your GH levels, and reap the benefits therein....look here:
PRE-BEDTIME STACK FOR GH
NOW! GHB (1 capsule)
NOW! Arginine + Ornithine (4 capsules)
NOW! DOPA Mucuna (2 capsules)
Optimum Nutrition Melatonin (1 tablet)
Optimum Nutrition BCAA-1000 (4 capsules)
NOW! Vitamin C-1000 (1 capsule)
Optimum Glutamine Capsules (4 capsules)
Take all of these with approximately 12 oz water right before bed.
In addition, you will want to do lots of compound exercises at the gym including squats, clean and press, and deadlifts. These exercises accentuate your GH levels tremendously.
