It's still just not the way HGH works. You don't inject and then your body just releases fats into your bloodstream to be burned for fuel. Having high igf-1 levels promotes your body to not store any fat and to use stored fats for fuel.

Something about stored fat and hydrolysis. Then I got down a rabbit hole and was getting way past my bio101 knowledge
Here is the wiki on it

yep . I'm not sure what the argument even was here. but in order for a cell to use fat as energy the fat has to first be released from fat storage into the blood stream .. this is called 'lipolysis'. HGH promotes lipolysis . which again is NOT actual fat burning, its just the release of fatty acids into the blood stream. in order for actual fat burning itself to take place a cell needs to use that fat as actual energy,, or the fats in the blood stream will just get stored again.
this is also why if you took 5iu of HGH, did some mild fasted cardio, and then went and got blood work done, the bloodwork may end up showing your triglycerides as elevated and give you a false positive. because fatty acids were dumped into the blood stream to be available as an energy source
how the heck do you think those stored fats can be used as fuel ? stored fats can't just be magically burned up.. they have to be released into the blood stream as a fuel source first. thats what HGH helps promote, lipolysis, the releasing of stored fats into the blood stream. it does the same exact thing with glucose/glycogen. thats why your blood sugar is going to be elevated when taking HGH. both blood sugar and blood triglycerides are going to be elevated when taking HGH.
I believe this to be true, but have no information to back that up . but I'm confident enough that I advise clients who are cutting to take their HGH injection first thing upon waking when fasted and then do their fasted cardio about 30 mins later, in at attempt to burn up the fatty acids that are being released into the blood stream,, that way they don't just get stored again later on
