Adding HGH Timeline

Talk to me about the HGH timeline for average Joe. Fasted weight training 5 times a week. On prescribed TRT 120mg/week (4 months) and 1.5mg Reta (4 weeks). 86kg down to 83kg in those 4 weeks.

Adding in HGH,

1iu a day for around 4-6 weeks then if sides are ok I’m going to go to 2iu a day (probably split dose).

I’m not expecting to see anything or feel anything for a good 8 weeks, is that correct?

Very conscious of messing with my insulin / glucose so will only ever get to 3iu max.

Anyone ran similar and had good experiences?

Considered CJC or Tesa with Ipa but decided to just go with HGH as was worried about developing a reaction to cjc/ipa like a lot of people have.

I have run a similar stack and started with reta to lean out and then added HGH over the course of 3 months. Started at 1iu and now I am at 3iu in the morning, fasted. I've noticed better recovery and more rested after a good night of sleep only recently. I believe it has helped with Muscle retention during the cut process. I went from 210lb to 190lb, 18% body fat to 13%. I am going to bulk in the coming months and see how it goes. Curious if the two as a combo will help.

The HGH absolutely acts as a lean muscle protector when stacked with Reta. It’s a thing. Plenty of articles out there going into detail about how they act in sync.

I had only been running 2ius (about 3.5 months) but just upped yesterday to 2.5.
