Muscle and physical performance
Strength and hypertrophy
Muscle growth and strength depend on training stimulus, food and recovery. A rise in a growth-related hormone is not the same as improved performance.
Potential benefits explored
Building strength and muscle.
GH secretagogues and IGF analogues are included as anabolic-signalling research options. Training adaptation, functional strength and tissue growth need their own evidence.
Practical interpretation
Use progressive training with adequate protein, energy and recovery. Record lifts, training volume and measurements rather than chasing hormone numbers.
Meaningful outcomes: Repeatable strength measures and body composition over time.
