Mentioned here are just some of the known side effects of the undue use of HGH.
-- Acromegaly
-- Premature death
-- Heart enlargement (due to prolonged use of HGH. Can't be reversed)
-- Low blood sugar with risk of going into a diabetic coma
-- Excessive hair growth all over the body
-- Excessive water retention
-- Liver damage
-- Thyroid damage

Be careful. You could do permanent damage.
Let's not forget some other potential side effects:

-- Popped Collar
-- 15 degree cocked visor
-- Jaegerbombs
-- Getting 86'd from clubs
-- Bro-mance

yeah? so your growth goes in reverse?
Yes. HGH has permanent effects when you are growing due to the way your body is built.

Other effects are like if you take steriods. You get ripped on roids but when you go off you go back to the way you were.

Maybe worse. HGH is a natural hormone, so if you take exogenous HGH then your natural HGH will be suppressed by a negative feedback mechanism. When you stop HGH it may take a while for your normal HGH to come back.

Normally HGH is good for people who naturally have a deficiency of HGH due to tumor or glandular failure at the hypothalamic level.

HHmmmmm. Science experiment time. I'm going to take pictures each week for the full 10 weeks i'm on it and then 10 weeks after I'm off.

I'm assuming everything else about your training has peaked/plateaued? [If not] Why chem' up if you're still making gains?

Yeah. Plateau. I got up to maxing 405 and couldn't ever get higher or bigger. Plus I haven't worked out in a while so I'm seeing if this will give me a little jumpstart and help keep me going.

Just out of curiousity, where does one buy HGH? I'm not interested as I am 6' @205lb and I still have not come close to plateauing at the gym. Gains are slower now than before, but they are still coming. I doubt I'd ever get to the point where my body is unable to gain more muscle mass or go up in weight. (Granted I know where I want to be, and don't want to be a huge dude)

Yeah, I have a good buddy that's a Cert'ed PT and reasonably hardcore, and would only recommend it _if_ you're at an impasse +and+ you're 100% OK with the potential side effects (though if you research, some can be managed).

I use to ride with a guy who tried HGH, He ended up not getting much bigger except his right hand. It grew so much that when he put his hands palm to palm his middle finger was over an inch longer than his other. He didnt tell anyone till one day we were hanging out at the local bike dealership and he needed gloves. He said yo Pete(thats me) throw me a pair of those black icon gloves, One L and one XXXL. I was like WTF is up with your freak hand?! As a former fitness person- I worked at bally total fitness for a few years- DONT DO IT!! Your gonna have way more problems then its worth. just my $.02
