TweetOne of these days I plan on running some for at least 6 months.
TweetWho all has take it and what did you think about it? Did you see much growth?
If money was not a factor, who would or would not take it and why and why not?

TweetRan it once for 4 months @ 3iu/day mostly to take care of some injuries and what not. I did see some growth and strength gains, nothing dramatic but every little bit helps, right? If money weren't an issue I'd def. run it @ 6 months or longer to stay injury free, good cholesterol, more size and more strength.
TweetI'm in my 20's and don't plan on competing so I see no need for it yet. Once I get into my 40's then I will use it as part of "male rejuvenation treatment."
TweetI would run it, about 3IUs a day for 6 mths. But I'd start it,more than likey, when I'm undergoing Male Rejuvy treatments like Supa said.
Tweet^me too
TweetI have ran it for more time on than not over the last 7 years. I began in my latter 30's with it.
I would say for the right group of people, it is certainly worthwhile. Outside of that, it is expensive for the very small benefit that it will have. The right group of people would be -
• Those in their latter 30's and beyond whose endogenous levels of HGH have began to drop off.
• Those who are younger but for whatever reason have low HGH/IGF levels.
• Those that have matured muscle growth to the point that traditional AAS cycles don't produce much in the way of results anymore.
• Those with burns or other injuries where HGH can assist with healing beyond the normal scope.
For anyone fitting one or more of these groups, HGH will work like nothing else and will allow you to continue to grow and thrive beyond what you are otherwise able.
With respect to growth, you are talking about very meager gains as the scale goes, but a few extremely high quality pounds that will defy the difference in the scale. For those of us "seasoned" bodybuilders, it provides assistance to nagging injuries, and a restore natural sleep pattern that usually escapes us as we age.
The only really legitimate and worthwhile reason for a younger person to utilize it would be if they are abnormally short (and under and endo's care), if they have a disease of the pituitary that stunts their HGH secretions, or they are recovering from a burn or other tramatic injury that HGH can assist with.
Beyond these reasons, HGH doesn't really make any sense. In normal younger people, the result will be a little fat loss (which can be accomplished far, far cheaper with alternate methods), a slightly better skin tone (also possible with cheaper methods), and a couple of pounds of gain in lean mass (which can be easily dwarfed by very inexpensive AAS alternatives).
I (in my mid 40's and having been a bodybuilder for about 25 years) can't imagine not having it in my arsenal. If it were offered to me free at 20 years old, I would pass ... it just doesn't make sense regardless of cost until you need it.
