Growth hormone was obtained for the first time in 1950 from the pituitary of a deceased person in order to treat dwarfism in children. But it turned out that this method is unreliable because of the risk side-effects and even death. In the eighties of the twentieth century managed to produce a synthetic growth hormone in the laboratory. It was originally designed for the treatment of pituitary insufficiency somatotrophin, but due to their properties quickly penetrated to bodybuilding.
The popularity of growth hormone in bodybuilding due to the fact that it causes muscle growth, fat reduction, increased ability to regenerate, immunizes the body to injury and mechanical damage, it raises the body's efficiency. HGH in bodybuilding began to be used at the beginning of the eighties of the twentieth century. none of anabolic steroids did not have as much influence on muscle growth and fat loss, such as HGH. Anabolic steroids should be taken intramuscularly, while the growth hormone injected subcutaneously with a thin needle into the skin on my stomach. Thanks somatropin is absorbed almost instantly. Another difference between the anabolic steroid and growth hormone is that under the influence of the former cell increases, but not divided. However, insulin-like growth factor IGF-1, which increases the production of elevated levels of growth hormone, causes both the division and cell growth, whereby both contribute to all neighboring cells. HGH initially increases muscle volume in such a way that they get into larger amounts of water. Mobile is growing, so it gets more space for the adoption of the protein. After about three weeks of taking HGH pills to the muscle cells is transported protein. After the adoption of growth hormone in the blood amino acid levels significantly decreased, as they migrate from the blood into muscle cells. There begins the biosynthesis of proteins - amino acids are incorporated into contractile muscle proteins. It is important for bodybuilding, including the operation of HGH on body fat. Under the influence of growth hormone tri glycerides in the fat cells are broken down into, and an increasing number of plasma fatty acids, which become the body's main source of energy. HGH has also immunizers action of insulin, which makes the insulin that transports glucose into fat cells - the rate of deposition of fat is therefore much slower. HGH is considered as doping and officially can not be used in bodybuilding competitions. |
