• Dosage- The most effective dosage of HGH for bodybuilding is 4 IU. If taken for the first time it will be enough to consume 4 to 6 of HGH to gain only clean mass. 15IU per day can be taken during the next cycle because growth hormone shows a linear increase in efficiency with dosage.

• Diet-When using HGH we should eat as much as we can because it is hard to gain fat as all calories go to the muscles. Protein consumption must be increased significantly. Intake of carbohydrates is also a must. Fast food can also be eaten but in a low proportion. It is essential to eat every 2 to 3 hours to keep the anabolism high. By eating more, the consumption of protein is increased which is very important for a weight gainer. The growth hormones increase your blood sugar and suppress appetite. It is essential to take special supplements to improve the appetite too.
