Maximisation of Growth Hormone Output

Methods for GH output:

  • Sleep post training.

  • Fast for 2 hours pre-bed
    or
    Protein meal pre-bed.

-Avoid Carbs pre-bed

-Frequent amino acid ingestion

  • Glutamine supplementation, pre bed and post training

  • Supplememtation of amino acids to Pre & Post workout meals

  • Training heavier but for shorter periods

Any references would be a help also

There have been threads on this before and should be in the archives. The idea is sufficiently contentious that you’re far better to look at the best schedule to help with training performance and not worry about this.

Here’s a good place to start.

with the exceptions of leanness adn connective tissue health, GH is pretty irrelevant to healthy adults. It doen’t increase strength or power; worrying about endogenous GH is unlikely to do much (might be useful on a diet).

Ok - Point taken.

I went back and all I saw was one short paragraph with rather generic guidelines regarding vulgarity and such.

So I’m not sure what the problem with my post is.

Let me spell it out. NO DISCUSSION OF BANNED DRUGS ON THIS SITE.
Is that clear enough?
