    Talking Hgh Split Injections???

    I have been researching on HGH and trying to figure out the best time to inject. It seems it is still being debated. I am waking and taking it right now at 5:30AM then back to sleep for a couple hours. Only starting with 2ius 5on/2off. When I work my way up to 4 and 5 iu/day, I would like to split the dose in 2 X per day.
    So, the question is when is the best time to inject HGH??? I am not on cycle yet until July so all I am taking right now is HGH

    Thanks for the help!

    I take mine before my morning run, and if you split it up I'd take your second early afternoon or before you lift.

    I try to avoid taking it too late for fear it'll keep me from making my own HGH at night

That fact, plus the fact that the largest HGH pulse of the day occurs about 2 hours after you fall to sleep equates to robbing yourself of your body's own HGH. If you are either old enough to not have any significant HGH, or have a problem with your pituitary, then injecting at night is a great time to add some HGH.

    Outside of that, the best course of action would be to pick times that exogenous HGH would be of the most help. Your cortisol levels build overnight, and hit their biggest peaks for the day in early morning and early afternoon. A couple of IU's of HGH during these times will go a long way to help squelch the catabolic potential of cortisol.

    Taking it EARLY morning as you are now is also a great plan of attack. Since your body has already released its biggest pulse, you are in the window where somatostatin is already in play, slipping in a couple of extra IU's of HGH will do little to disrupt your bodys natural rhythm with respect to HGH.

    There are many other ways to tackle it ... really any approach should just be sensitive to your body's own natural rhythm, and should try to cause the minimal disruption to your pituitary.
    Well thats helped clear a few things up for me in my head. Thanks for the post RB.

    Excellent post Baron, thanks. I'm starting my first complete cycle of GH next week. I'm thinking morning as I wake then PWO then going to sleep 3-4 hours later. I work out in the evening. Do you recommend taking it before work out or post?
