    does anabolic steroids effect your natural hgh release

    I know a fair bit on how to train naturally without being under the influence of steroids and how to get the most out of my natural release of gh and testosterone . Exercises foods sleep cardio. But my question isis my gh release effected at all while being on cycle. I rely on heavy compoud exercises t gain mass while off cycle. Is it still as important while on. Tryin to get the most out of my on/off cycle training. Ive done research on it but cant find a specific answer to my question. Cheers to anyone that can answer or teach me anything on this sorta subject.

    I don`t believe they do directly however the level of workout and lifting that you do while on could help release a little extra HGH but I`m no expert on the matter.

    I've done a fair amount of reading and I will agree with a reasonably high degree of confidence. the two systems are independent of each other, yet the amount of exercise can have an impact on your body's natural release of GH.

    The natural GH is pituitary gland driven while Testosterone is testes driven. They are two different glands and different systems.

    While AAS do not actually affect GH release, they do increase IGF-1 levels produced in the liver. HGH works by converting to IGF-1 when passing through the liver.
    So yeah, the end result is the same as increasing HGH.
