Really appreciate this thread coming from the stand point of a young bb. Obviously knowing everyone’s main reaction before asking the following but would like some input. I stopped growing at the age of 18. Currently 21yrs and permanently injured multiple times over, I think I have reached my natural peak. I have trained my brain to crave only the foods that fit my diet plan and hardly miss a day at the gym. I am a recent college grad training crew (rowing) and rugby. My collegues have good amounts of energy. Mine is completely depleted. I sleep around 12hrs a night and my day revolves around my gym and supplement schedule. Therefore with all this in mind I have begun to consider GH and insulin . Somatropin specifically. I am worried about my growth plates fusing but if I stopped growing at the age of 18 do I need to be? Also what else should I be worried about if I only take a max of 5iu per day 5 days a week and only use a total of 200iu.
I am solely just gathering information because up until this point I have always been the one who "owns" the gym and now I’m paying for it. Arthritis, carpel tunnel and condral malaticia (sp? Joint popping) in my hands, shoulders popping in and out, knee condral malaticia, lower back pain, etc.
