Somatropin for muscle growth and more

About 20 percent of Hollywood actors take growth hormone, according to the American magazine «The Hollywood Reporter». It is believed that 75% of NFL players take growth hormone also.

Growth hormone, a polypeptide hormone made from 191 amino acids, circulates through the bloodstream and attaches to special receptors on cells. It stimulates the production of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) in liver that leads to bone, muscle, and cartilage growth. It also enhances lipolysis, which is the conversion of adipose tissue into free fatty acids, which circulate in the blood and are used as an energy source.

The highest level of growth hormone can be observed during childhood and adolescence, after which its secretion gradually decreases. By the age of forty, you synthesize about half as much growth hormone as you did when you were twenty.

In everyday life, you can buy growth hormone only by prescription – for children or adults with severe GH deficiency, it is also used for some rare diseases. It is estimated that 45,000 people in the U.S. are indicated to take growth hormone, but doctors have written twice as many prescriptions (that is, 90,000).

Athletes, professionals and amateurs take GH because it provides muscle growth, fat burning and reduces the risk of injury (it was banned by WADA in 1989). It is also used by those who can simply afford to take it because GH provides the effect of prolonging youth and maintaining a high quality of life.

Growth Hormone builds muscle and burns fat

GH’s ability to burn fat is due to its direct tissue activity, but its muscle building activity is more mediated by its ability to stimulate the synthesis of IGF-1 in the liver, which which stimulates hypertrophy and hyperplasia of muscle fibers, bone growth in children and teenagers, tissue regeneration after injury and the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the skin (rejuvenation effect).

Bodybuilders have long appreciated its ability to build muscle mass while burning fat and improving overall fitness. GH’s ability to strengthen joints and ligaments reduces the injury possibility, which is also highly valued by athletes.

Growth hormone supplementation

It should be said that most often GH is taken together with anabolic steroids or SARMs, which makes it possible to show the full effect of GH.

For muscle growth you should take a dose of 8-10 IU and it is reasonable to take not less than 0,0044-0,0055 pounds of protein per 1 pound of body weight and practice high intensity workout (12-14 repetitions for upper body and 15-20 for legs). Multi-repetitive training promotes higher levels of lactic acid in your muscles, which promotes a better tissue response to growth hormone, which will ultimately provide a better result.

If you want to burn fat, 5 IU of GH a day is enough, but it is important to realize that using GH is not a cure-all and that you should continue intensive training and your diet in order to achieve your goal.

If you want to regenerate after an injury, you should take 3-4 IU of GH daily and also to speed up the regeneration it is important to take growth hormone jointly with such peptides as TB-500 and BPC157. Each of them has its own mechanism of action, and their joint action only strengthens regeneration of the damaged tissues.
