Good idea? Bad idea? Does HGH require PCT? Would HGH be beneficial for CrossFit? Would any steroid benefit CrossFit?

I’m up to 5-6 workouts a day 5 days a week with 5-6 strength sessions a week but I don’t want to hurt my work capacity.

GH does not require a PCT. I’d research GH more and you’ll be able to decide if its beneficial to you. If you are looking for direct improvement in your CrossFit numbers, I’d consider something else.

Gh for Crossfit….I’d only do it if I was at a very high competing level in Bambssfit…but then I’d also be running probably a ton of gear trying to win everything.

I wouldn’t recommend you do GH, be a waste of money in my mind for Bambssfit. Test cycle be a good start though…you have any AAS experience?

I am at competition level but I mean cmon, are they serious with the strength numbers they put up with the work capacity they have. I’ve ran two test e cycles. First was 500mg a week. PCT’d properly. Didnt lose anything actually. Kept ALL STRENGTH and work capacity. Did second cycle. 1000mg 2 shots a week. Started putting up some daddy numbers but my work capacity was taking a hit. Needed something to up the anti on my capacity. PCT’d properly and kept all strength again. Haven’t lifted in about a month and half due to reasons I wont list here, not medical or injury related. But back to jumping between 2-4 metabolic conditioning WODS a day plus 2-3 strength sessions a day depending on workload for both metcons and strength. Strength is pretty much where I left it. A little weaker but nothing I can’t get back in a month. Ready to blow the competition out of the water at regionals though and get my ticket to the games. I don’t believe those guys aren’t on gear most of the year if not through the games.

It’s been at least 6 months since my last cycle and I still have the strength from them. I had my doubts about losing it when you stop. But I no longer have them.

Any advice?

They do test at the end of regionals. It’s only a piss test though. Any way around a piss test. I don’t know how invasive it is though =/

I read the guide on here for HGH and it seems like this is right up my alley. It won’t be in my system long enough for test for it but ill be on it 5-8 months at a time. Perfect if I start it at the beginning of the season.

It suggests stacking with test for quicker gains but im in no hurry.

So are you doing 2-3 metcon wods and 2-3 strength wods in one workout session, or are you having 5-6 seperate workouts in one day?

Separate throughout the day. Here I made this post in the newbie section.

Bio Before 2 Cycles
Age 23
Weight 170
Clean and Jerk – 200
Squat – 250
Front Squat – 185
Snatch – 135…
Bench – 185

After 2 cycles
Age 23
Weight 205ish
Clean and Jerk – 295
Squat – 425
Front Squat – 335
Snatch – 235
Bench – 300
Strict Press – 205

I don’t do any sort of TrueMaxding.

My work capacity was through the roof and almost everything remains to this day a slight decrease in strength due to relocation but I will resume FULL training in about 5-6 day so I think I can have it back in a week.

For my cycles I Did

250mg Test E for 13 weeks
Did the cycle with a buddy without researdark_sideng
Did nothing for PCT like an idiot except goat weed…

then immediately jumped on a

1000mg test e for 10 weeks
2 shots a week

Only PCT was HCG
for 2 weeks 1 shot a week i believe 1ml I cant remember much. I truly apologize but I used a total of 10 iu i know for sure.
Cant remember how long because i was a lab rat for my buddy and was consumed with my training..

Ended up keeping everything I gained strength wise and have been off for about 5-6 months now and would like to start learning everything I need to do myself because i feel I could be a lot stronger than i am now. I do strictly CrossFit and am looking to compete. I can make it to regionals as of now but its not hard to tell the top competitors are using something. If not they have got some EXTREME genetics but I dont believe that.

I have been reading a lot on HGH and heard it does tendon and ligament strengthening and stacked with test can be diabolical. i did however notice a slight decline in my work capacity but it could be because i was so gung ho about my strength gains i didnt really care. Well now I do and am looking to make the most out of my future cycles. I want veins popping out of my arms like a spiderweb!! But I seek performance over all else. Aesthetics are not what I am after. Sorry for the short essay and HI

For HGH, you need a minimum of 6 months to begin to see results. Taking a minimum of 4iu, which isn’t much. That said, its not cheap. Plus most of what out on the market is fake. So its best to go with Pharma, which is hard to find.

I do have a job. I own a gym and have a trainer working with me so it’s not difficult to just stay in the gym all day. I have the privilege of training whenever i want.

Example Day

About 8-9AM

1.Three sets, not for time, of:
Bar Muscle-Ups x 3-6 reps
Strict Handstand Push-Ups x 10-12 reps

Rest 10-15 Minutes
Eat

2.Take 15-20 minutes to build to a heavy Split Jerk
3.Take 15-20 minutes to build up to a heavy back squat

Eat

Teach classes

Approx 11-12

4.Every minute, on the minute, for 5 minutes:
10 Shoulder to Overhead (135/95 lb)
10 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups

Eat(Rest 10-15 min)

If I have time Ill do the last part, if not ill resume around 2-3 oclock

5.Three sets for max reps:
Stationary Dips x Max Reps @ 1011
(pause at full elbow extension every rep)
Rest 3 minutes

Teach class the rest of the day

I’ll eat 3-5 times throughout the day, usually right after I workout with 2-3 protein shakes a day. Fish oil, Amino’s, Creatine Monohydrate, Glutamine also included.

I’ve been told that in the US you can only get it prescribed if you have dwarfism.

Wow that seems like a long day. Is there a reason you don’t incorporate those small groups of sets into only one or two workouts,
As far a GH I would assume that it would not hurt you to use GH long term it would probably help with recovery, and after exercising all day like that recovery would be optimal.
On your previous post you said your first cycle was 250mg/wk and your second cycle was 1000mg/wk? Did your sides increase from 250-1000?

Not true. You can get HGH from mostgood
HRT specialists. I have the option to get it from mine but am waiting until I am 50. It’s not cheap either about $1500-$2000 a months including all blood work, gear and any other tests.
