Growth Hormone is a legendary means of pharmacological support of the training process. GH, aka somatotropin or somatotropic hormone, is used by representatives of all sports, from bodybuilders and powerlifters to team players, tennis players, cyclists and track and field athletes. Growth Hormone is also popular among amateurs who want to strengthen the body and get the most out of the efforts expended in the gym.
Growth Hormone affects thousands of physiological and biochemical processes. In skeletal muscle, it stimulates satellite cell proliferation and promotes muscle hyperplasia and hypertrophy. Accelerates fat oxidation in skeletal muscle cells. In adipose tissue, it boosts lipolysis. Influences GH and on carbohydrate metabolism.
Great effect of Growth Hormone and on connective tissue, which consists of ligaments and tendons. Somatotropin strengthens the binding elements of the ODA, makes the entire joint and ligament apparatus stronger. GH preparations are actively used by athletes during rehabilitation after injuries, including ligament tears and bone fractures. GH is often included in steroid courses for injury prevention. (Inclusion of somatotropin in the course restores the balance of strength between growing muscles and connective tissue elements - tendons and ligaments.)
Growth hormone increases bone mineral density, and this is very important in terms of prevention of osteoporosis and osteopenia. Osteoporosis more often affects for women at the age of menopause, but also men face this pathology. A course of GH will strengthen bone tissue and prevent the development of a dangerous disease.
Somatotropin has a rejuvenating effect, which is explained by direct stimulation of the synthetic function of skin cells, the formation of new collagen fibers, increasing the concentration of hyaluronic acid in the skin. On a course of GH improves the condition of the skin, hair and nails, and the rejuvenating effect is visible to the naked eye.
