Gents,
I've recently been prescribed Genotropin from my doctor. Obviously it's pharm grade.
I'm in my early 30's and am currently on test-e at 350mg/week total. I'm 6'3 @ 220lbs dry in the morning.
The main premise of this thread is to do this the right way to try and mitigate any and all negative sides of gh. I'm typically on a low carb diet (almost keto) and am an athlete. I run a lot but try my hardest to hold on to what little size I currently have by eating my ass off since I typically don't use carbs as a primary fuel source. I'm not fat. I'd say I'm at 10% bf at the moment.
The goal of gh in my eyes is injury prevention first and foremost by way of smart training, recovery and nutrition. . . . and of course looking good comes second to me personally as I already look good in my eyes (and the ladies).
The initial plan was to start at 2iu/day but, being that I'm young and possibly making 2iu naturally a day anyway, perhaps 3iu is the way to go, possibly 4? I am not trying to put on bodybuilder-like size. The max weight I ever wanna be at is 230lbs while still being able to run 6 miles at a sub 7min pace while maintaining enough strength to lug a 220lbs man around if needed.
I just bought a glucose meter and will be getting baseline bloodwork done tomorrow to see where my health currently is. My current resting HR is typically 47-51bpm and my current BP is hovering around 126/78.
Back to the bottom line:
I know this run of GH is totally dependent on how my body responds but, I'd like to mitigate the following:
-Water retention
-insulin resistance
What say the crowd?
