Now onto your question and it's a good one. The 3 natural high points of GH release are first thing in the morning, post-workout, and right before going to bed. We know carbs blunt the release of GH and carbs are a must for breakfast and post- workout unless post-workout is late at night as it is in your case. So,that leaves us with bedtime being the optimum choice. In addition, muscle repair occurs at night while we are a sleep making this the best opportunity to maximize the muscle building effects of GH. Furthermore, our bodies go into a fasted state at night and the anti-catabolic effects of GH are manifested when injected at night before going to bed,especially when we employ a carb curfew!
I feel that spot reducing by injecting GH into particular muscle groups is over-rated just as the claims that site injecting with anabolic steroids cause localized growth.
I do agree that GH needs to be used for around 6 months straight to gain maximum benefit. But a noticeable difference can be seen in only a couple of month when using a generous amount of pharm grade GH.
The biggest problem with using GH long term is the expense to effect ratio. And the longer you run high dosages of GH the more you increase your chances of developing diabetes by becoming insulin resistant. And after a lengthy period os GH usage studies have suggested that our bodies release more Somastatin. This hormone has been suggested to shut down Igf-1 receptors. It's probably good to take a week off after every 3 months of GH use.
Side effects of using GH at high dosages longterm can be serious. Heart enlargement, kidney enlargement, high blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid hormone deficiency, acromegaly, and accelerated growth of existing cancer cells. Like all hormones, GH should be used with great respect!
