HGH dosing 5 on / 2 off or ED

[cupcakes]

Long time lurker here on PM, but first post. I tried searching around and couldn't find much info so asking it here.

Is there any scientific logic to the 5 on / 2 off dosing with GH, or was this simply developed to extend the stash or save money?

Given the choice, would you run 5/2 off or ED?

Recently started 4 IU's about 2 months ago, been in the game for over 17 years and changing my focus to more of a HRT/Longevity game plan.

Thanks

5/2 was ment for a lower dosage of hgh like yourself and created to save money.

 

[armstrongmike]

I do 6 on 1 off

 

[Jeremy24]

i say ed, keeps gh levels in the blood much higher

5/2 but depends on dosage and how much you have.

 

[jamescb77]

I do 5/2 with peps everyday.

The Schedule of 5/2 is also good depending on how much you are running daily,, it always good to take at least a day off if you are running 10IU or higher,, but If you are I would suggest some peptides like the other fella suggested, but at 4IU daily I would at least go 6/1

Trust me I've tried it ...just lower the dose, keep it level in the blood. The only way that I've tried.. if your running peps with it (ipam,ghrp2, mod gfr) you can run gh for 6 days and on the 7th crank your dose of peps up alittle for that day

You can do 5 on 2 off to save money or you can do 10x3 as they say is best for bulking.

Nobody has truly answered the question here. Obviously a person can do 5/2, 6/1, or 7 days a week, but the question is whether there is an advantage to the popular 5/2. For example 5/2@3iu is 15iu/week, and 2ui/dayx7 is 14iu/week, is one better than the other? Do those two off days in the 5/2 schedule give your body a break from anything? It would seen to me that 7 days a week at a low dose such as 15iu/week would make a lot more sense. Thoughts?

Well apparently a less "regular" dosing protocol would more closely mimic the pituitary's release of it during puberty. Thus, something like once every two or three days would seem a better approach, if those are the results you are after.

2 I/u pre bed would mimic the natty release the best I would say.

First, Unless I was using pharma I wouldn't bother with anything under 5 ius unless it's a female, Second, I would use ed no days off and take a random week off then get right back on. I will run 10/20 ius ed for 6 weeks and take week 7 off then go right back to it on week 8, Repeat year round.

Whether I'm running 3 iu's, sub q, fasted in the am or 10-12 iu's, IM split throughout the day, I run it consistently 365 days out of the year. There are no benefits to running it 5/2 or 6/1, those were/are money saving ideas. All of the pros and vets I've talked to say the same thing. "run it as much as you can for as long as you can afford".

 

[trackman]

I run it everyday.
