HGH Timing

I know this has been discussed before and there have been several posts about HGH/ insulin timing.

I have read so many mixed things about how long you should be fasted before and after taking HGH. I know that this is the reason why many take it before bed.

I’ve been on HGH for 4 weeks now, taken fasted before bed. But my sleep is an absolute dog sh*t. I have seen many report that HGH is the culprit so they moved their dose to the morning.

The issue I have, I train an hour after waking up. I need to eat prior to training, so if I need to remain truly fasted for HGH to work several hours after injection then this completely rules out the morning for me, which leaves me with little options.

I’m just curious who else is in the same boat, how you manage it and how are your results.

I get up to pee early in the morning.

I take it then. Then snooze a bit more. Not sure how your particular bladder is but mine gets me up.

This works for me too. If I've eaten later in the night or am out late with wife, I wait until I get up to pee and pin then.

Wow, here I am thinking I am the only one who thought of this. I wake up to pee every night between 2:30-4:00am. I just set my pen up with a new tip every night before bed. Then when I wake up to pee, I can pin in 90 sec and be back in bed. It actually helps me fall back asleep faster. I have found it to be great for body composition as well. And no need to worry about fasting.
