How much GH for bigger bones?

[Classy_Cojones]

And how often?

As a fighter, I actually wouldn't mind bigger bones. In fact, I've thought out the pros and cons, and the cons aren't that many.

So how much, how often?

The usual ED, or the twice a week that's been discussed in another topic here?

The cons ARE that many...

The problem is that GH doesn't affect all bones the same way at the same rate.

The bones in your hands, jaw, face, and under your eyebrows will be growing before your others do. Remember the wrestler, Andre the Giant? He had acromegaly, a condition where the pituitary puts out WAY too much GH. Yes, he grew taller prior to matuing fully, but it also killed him in his 40's.

My personal opinon is that GH is VASTLY over-rated, and not the best thing at all for muscle growth. It is, however, in large doses, great for getting that Frankenstein look, lots of carpal tunnel syndrom, and organ growth.

Could you use, say, 2 IU per day for strengthening connective tissue and HRT/longevity? Probably.

What if your organs grow along with your bones? I think you would need a considerable dose to have major bone growth and also for a lengthy time. Of course everyone is different so who is to say what grows and doesn't on your body?

I would be interested to know what dosages pro's take. Im taking 8-10iu's daily. Im hoping that is enough.

No...

Everybody is not THAT different, and what holds for one, will, in a narrow range, hold for another.

One guy isn't going to get away with 20 Iu's a day, while another has problems on 8 IU's a day.

This is the very thing that makes medicine (and physiology, and pharmacology, and science in general) work for populations of people.
