HGH and test for runner

[TRA]

I'm 47, 6'0, 200 lbs. I've run long distance for years and years, and recently cut back due to work. With the cut back in miles, I've gained about15-20 lbs. I'm trying to take my weight down using diet and bumping up my exercise. I recently got a script for HGH and testosterone from an age management doc. I'm currently doing 3 IUs HGH 5 days per week, and 200 mg test cyp 1 day per week, with HCG 500 IUs 2 days per week, just prior to test.

I have several questions. I am running about 45-60 minutes per day, with some days at only 30 mins but at 80-85% max HR. I lift very little, but do a few body weight exercises (pushups, crunches, etc.). My diet is pretty clean, fish only, no meat, soy products, at least 30-40% of calories is protein, with low refined carbs (1-2 x per week, except for chocolate, 1 bar 4-5 days per week).

I am basically endomorphic, have never had much muscle mass, and low strength to weight ration. I want to lose the love handles, acquire a much leaner, more muscular look, and want to increase runs up to 60-120 mins 5 x per week. Cardio wise, due to my base, I can run up to 2 hours on the trails, but at the expense of my knees or plantar fascia.

Will the combo of HGH and test (current dosages) be okay for what I want to accomplish, in terms of good increases in exercise tolerance and cardio, decreased body fat, and leaner muscle mass appearance?

Will lifting 3-4 x per week, weights that allow 15-20 slow, good form, reps help?

Is there anything else I should be doing?

Finally, how important is sleep when using HGH? (I need 8, but usually get 6-7 h).

Thanks!

the hgh is what will really help you. at your age and dose you should have some really good results including burning those love handles off. as for what to do, just dont eat carbs half hour before or after injecting your hgh.

lifting 3-4 days a week will definatly help lean and tone you up and of course you should shoot for 8 hours a night but most of us cant get that. im lucky if i get 6 hours a night personally.

Small doses of HGH and test is what many athletes take.

I'm impressed that you are a distance runner at your height and weight. When I used to run CC I was tiny...say around 155-160 and literally had drink Ensure to have mantain enough calories.

I am now 200 and lift regularly but can imagine how hard it would be on your knees to run at 200.

Be sure to get some skilled help in setting up a lifting program. Simply going in and hitting all the machines will not get you very far. If needed find a trainer to help with your goals. Plan you daily lift regiment and focus on the muscles used and your form. Break you muscle groups down and work them on alternate days. For me I will do legs one day, chest & biceps another day, back, shoulders, and triceps the third day. To build muscle you may need to cut your cardio down and add a bunch of clean protein.

Sounds like you found a very good doc.

I started running trails years ago, and after 5 knee surgeries even, I was able to do a trail marathon at 210 lbs, and my ideal weight is 175-180. Dirt is forgiving, cement and asphalt are not. But I'm not happy, mind you, that's why I'm trying to lean up, and hopefully build a bit.
