Gh for a young guy, for endurance/performance

[myasshurts]

Would using GH at 20 in low doses do anything horrible? I am talking 2IU a day. The idea is strictly to improve performance. Does anyone have experience with GH effects on strength and endurance? Weight gain is not important. Also, cost is irrelevent, so don't worry about that.

I would refer you to the recent post"HGH opinions" by manchild. The resulting discussion is quite informative as to your question.
If you are an elite athlete, where small things are the margin of victory, then the answer is yes as to GH's usefulness at your age.

Hey Ironmaster:
Do you think a 5 month course of GH at about 4ius/Day 5 on 2 off will help strenghten my achilles tendons. I play soccer and I cant seem to get them healed no matter how much time I take off and soccer is my life. Has GH healed any of you ligaments or tendons that you know of?

I would try some other stuff before jumping strait to GH. You gotta watch the sides with that.

Yes, Elapid......one of the benefits of hGH supplementation is the improvement in tendon/ligament flexibility and strength.
Has it worked for me? Brother, I'm 53 and that is my pic over there. No way I stay big and lean at my age without GH....and I still put up the big weights without injury.
My elbow tendonitis that plagued me for years left me after about 3 months of GH.
Medical research shows GH to improve healing times by 30%+.
The "side effects" of GH are mostly myths and are far less in occurance than steroid side effects.
Try rubbing some DMSO in the area, and wrapping before excercise.

Thanks IronMaster for the hope-If my recovery goes as planned and my achilles heal I will stitch your name on my jersey and scream your name as I'm ripping the jersey off after scoring a goal. I'm serious man, this tendonitis is ruining my game, I have trained and practiced so hard only to this injury hold me back, its like my mind knows what to do but my body can't execute the instructions.

I have tried other stuff. Problem is, the other stuff shows up on drug tests. I do compete at a high level, so the margin of victory is very small. Surely some of you have experience with GH only. I have heard one say his strenth went through the roof without any weight gain. Is this true? Also, any dramatic effects on endurance?
