    Peptide for athletic performance.

    I just wonder if there is a peptide that will help me with performing better in soccer and help me with a knee that is consantly swelling. I had surgery of the knee for three years ago on the ALC and removing my meniscus. Have taken lots of pic of the knee,X-ray and CT. Everything seems to be fine and the only problem is that I don't have a meniscus anymore. Have been to many specialists, but no one can help me. Have considered using HGH or Igf-1 for the healing part and athletic performance. Have read that Tiger Woods have used HGH for healing of the knee after injury and that a lot of track and field athletes use Igf-1 at the time.

    What do you guys think? Any suggestions or ideas for what I should do?

    Most of soccer player that have this injuries and surgery won't recovery 100%.
    If you have the money for Pharma grade hgh you can try, and I believe won't solve your problem 100%, my improve some.
    If you thinking on chines hgh you losing your time and money.

    Thanks for the reply.
    So do you have some other ideas of things I should consider taking for both the performance part and the healing of my knee part?

    Hey Weah -

    i have the same injury on my right knee.

    Strengthening the quad and hamstring on your injured leg is most important. A Testosterone cycle might be just as helpful to get that muscle built back up quickly. That option is also much less expensive than gh. Sermorelin / GHRP-6 might also be worth exploring as well as TB-500 which is sold by this sites sponsor.

    In the meantime, start on MSM/Glucosamine no matter what other supplements you choose. Many on the forum swear by it (myself included) to assist with joint health. Good luck.

    Hey Thanks for the answer, think that's great of you.

    I use msm/glucosamine/chondroitin,creatine,fish oil,magnesium and etc. How much test do you think I should take and for how long? Have you some good experience with Sermorelin/GhRP-6 yourself?

    OK so I just checked out your profile and see that you are still in your 20's so be careful with whatever you do!

    If you do your research on the forums you'll see that guys still in their 20's can create problems for themselves later in life if they cycle testosterone . There are others on here way better versed on why not to take testosterone until you are in your 30's or 40's so seek out their posts to educate yourself.

    Do you have atrophy on your repaired leg? If your muscle is large enough to support the joint then i don't know that Testosterone is going to help with anything else.

    I am taking gh and sermorelin / ghrp 6 to recover from a surgery I had last year. Results have been positive for joint health so far.

    What do you mean with atrophy in my repaired leg? I can do almost everything with the leg, exept going to deep in the squat etc. It hurts to much.
    So what would you recommend me to do then?

    I'm not sure if this helps but especially if its a joint problem, I had a very bad shoulder injury a few years back. Could barely lift, I wanted to fix or well heal it because deca does have good healing properties. I used test, deca and dbol and cycled, within a few months my shoulder made a full recovery, was very happy and pleased, along with doing light weight on that shoulder to help heal it was back upto full strength when i finished.

    Hgh is good, if you can afford pharm grade much better, but just get some good generic hgh if you cant afford pharm grade, it will help.

    Iv had many friends with injuries maybe not as worse as yours, i just tell them to jump on the juice and they do make a good if not full recovery

    Thank you,thank you,thank you My knee isn't THAT bad, but it's swelling if I use it to much and the problem is the fact that my meniscus is gone. So what would you advice me to take and how much? I have thought about using HGH or Igf-1 for a long time and even though I have research for a long time now my thoughts are still there. I think the reason is that it doesn't suppress the system and the fact that I know that I will definetly use it when I get older for the reverse of aging

    I found a Prolotherapy doctor willing to inject hgh into my knee. Not all will do it as it is an "off-label" use of the drug and they don't like dealing with the FDA. For my knee injuries, I was told I needed microfracture surgery. I did not like the prospects of that as it does not always work and requires a lengthy recovery. I just had my 3rd prolo treatment. I was just recently able to run on it with no issues. My doc thinks I will be done after the next session. Insurance does not cover it. It costs me $350 per treatment. For more info look at iagh.com. That website is what made me want to try it. I am happy I did.

    Hey Weah -

    I was referring to muscle shrinkage. When the joint is injured one will favor the leg and the muscle won't grow or sustain in order to support the joint. Hence, more pressure on joint swelling pain etc.


    i am riddled with injuries and I started gh to help with a calf injuury (nerve and muscle damage). For that injury, I can say gh helped me quite a bit.

    My knee was as bad as yours so I have been trying to keep it feeling better for over 20 years. I had a decent handle on that injury prior to my current protocol and today, I can run no problem but I stay away from squatting or anything stressful on the joint. I played soccer for 10 years when I was younger and I know that it's not the best for the legs especially when you have an injury like ours.

    I like Hephens suggestions and when I blew my knee out I wished that I had cycled something to get the leg jump started. If you don't need that then you are ahead of the game.

    GH has amazing healing properties and when you are older like me, it's really good at helping with recovery. Pharm grade is a great suggestion since there is a lot of junk out there from what I have learned on the forum.

    There are some guys on here that use gh for localized recovery. Just browse the board and you'll see what they are doing.

    No, there is not a big difference in muscle mass in the bad leg vs the good one. I actually played a soccer/indoor tournament today and everything was good and we won the tournament I can feel the pain now but it's okay and the knee hasn't swelling especially much. So you guys think Igf-1 or HGH is the best choice for me?

    I don't have any experience with igf-1 so I can't speak to that. GH helps injuries with bone, muscle, and tendons but with your situation I don't know what it will do for the cartilage damage that you have. It's really your call with the direction you want to go in.

    I can say one thing for sure and that is that I will at least try something. I am not a quitter, and the compounds that are on my mind is testo,deca ,Igf-1,HGH,Anavar and EQ. Do you guys have any suggestions to what you would use?
