Alright so I been on HGH 3 iu a day test c 525 mg a week EOD and Reta 8mg a week
How do I get the most for mid section fat I been dropping weight pretty steadily about 2 pounds a week some weeks I’ll stay the same or fluctuate. My diet is pretty locked in. I also just upped my test to 525 recently from 160mg a week. Any tips and suggestions would be appreciated thank you !
If that's you in the picture, running a half gram of test probably isn't warranted / needed / beneficial / or a good idea right now.
More test won't help you lose weight.
Have you tried reta?
For the stage your at right now, the job is too big for HGH. Will it contribute? Yes. Will other things work better for you right now? .... yes.
What's your height, weight and age?
What is your daily cardio like?
What bloodwork have you been doing and what does it look like?
What's your blood pressure?
Have you had a calcium score or any cardiac imaging?
What changed in your programing that demands a half gram of test vs the 160mg you were on?
What did your hormone levels look like at 160mg? And what do they look like now?
You look like you have 80/90 pounds to get rid of
Optimize for that
Then worry about test
What are your maintenance macros and how much of a deficit are you maintaining?
If you are already on Reta, great.
If not, start that first.
If you do start HGH, make sure to test your natty IGF-1 first. That is what you will base your dosing from , and it will need to be rechecked regularly.
My methodology to optimize HGH for fat loss is to take it at night a few hours after my last meal, and don't eat or touch anything after that.
Insulin will prevent lipolysis
Take it when insulin will be low for an extended period of time. It takes 3 hours just to reach max serum concentration if you shoot it SubQ. You have to be fasted for an extended period of time for it to do its work.
Then do fasted cardio in the morning before putting anything other than plain water in your mouth. As soon as a carbohydrate hits you and your insulin rises.... your opportunity to burn off the fatty acids the GH freed up is gone. Insulin will start packing the fatty acids back into fat cells.
Stay in a defiit
Stay in a defict
Don't break your defict
And don't take a half gram of test while you are in a deficit. That's not the level you're at right now.
