HGH, short for Human Growth Hormone, while being a highly desirable to use in exogenous steroid form for body builders, is much different from the traditional testosterone. Both heavily favoured by the same demographic of trainers and athletes, HGH is not an anabolic steroid, but rather a peptide hormone. The original Somatropin human growth hormone is an identical synthetic version of HGH which the human body naturally produces.
Although a sizeable range of HGH products exist on the market today, there’s only one identical form known as Somatropin, regardless of the brand or manufacturer. This allows you to easily identify when you’re getting a pure form of HGH versus products less pure.
What is Human Growth Hormone?
Contrary to popular belief by the general public, HGH is a unique substance used to compliment a cycle and should not be thought of in the same as steroids. Instead, it is a powerful complimentary addition to any steroid cycle because of its ability to drastically enhance any effects you’re getting with the current supplements.
Benefits & Effects of HGH
HGH provides a range of benefits which you mostly won’t find with any anabolic steroid. This can make it a very valuable addition to just about any type of steroid cycle.
Aside from physical enhancement, HGH comes with benefits to your joints, tendons, muscles, recovery, sleep, and overall mood. HGH is unlike testosterone, which most steroids are based on. It is not a male hormone and hence allows for female consumption without yielding the negative effects steroids cause.
Growth hormone is very useful for experienced steroid users who have achieved a high level of physique enhancement and where further growth or progress seems to have come to a halt using testosterone on its own. The addition of HGH can elevate experienced bodybuilders beyond their usual limits when used in combination with other powerful steroids.
Proper Dosage for HGH
When used medically, HGH is usually administered at low doses starting at just 1iu daily with 3iu usually being the upper limit. While steroid users are usually accustomed to utilizing quite high doses of most compounds to get performance enhancing benefit, such is not recommended for HGH. Going beyond the 3iu limit can lead to dangerous side effects. In fact, extending HGH dosing beyond a certain point puts you at high risk of very serious health effects.
The good news is that HGH is very effective even at the low doses and could be a good place to start for new bodybuilders. More advanced users can increase the dosage slightly while keeping in mind that side effect risk will also increase.
