IGF-1 - the Benefits of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1

IGF-1 Builds Muscle
Some bodybuilder's are saying they have put on up to 20 lbs of muscle mass. There are no independent clinical study results to support this claim, but the evidence is increasing. Some say they have dropped 5% body fat in only one month of therapy, while at the same time increasing their strength and lean muscle.

Dr. Di Pasquale, who is an expert in anabolic steroids and performance-enhancing compounds believes that HGH taken with IGF-1 works better due to the feedback mechanism between the growth hormone in the pituitary gland and the IGF-1 in the liver.

He notes that growth hormone causes the release of IGF-1, but when levels reach a certain point, the pituitary gland ceases to release HGH. There is a delay, however, in this process which means that HGH levels increase at night and IGF-1 levels increase during the day. Bodybuilders are taking both together in order to receive the best possible benefits.

The Effectiveness of Homeopathic IGF-1
Homeopathic IGF-1 also works in many different areas of the body to facilitate and improve cellular performance. A recent independent double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study demonstrated effectiveness in the nervous, reproductive, musculoskeletal, and gastrointestinal systems.

Specifically, homeopathic IGF-1 improved energy levels and physical performance, and it improved respiratory conditions and relieved symptoms of PMS and menopause. It also relieved muscle and bone aches and pains, joint stiffness, inflammation in the body, improved mental concentration and clarity, and positively affected appetite.

Increases in lean body mass have been reported. Homeopathic IGF-1 balances weight by helping the body to achieve its ideal weight, whether that means losing fat for people too heavy, or gaining lean muscle for people too lean. It is believed to bring aging, resting cells back into a balanced state.

The Human Body's Growth Factor Army
IGF-1 is only one of the body's many growth factors that are now being identified, isolated, and cloned using genetic engineering technology for use as drugs. Eric Dupont, Ph.D., says that HGH is the general and IGF-1 and growth factors are the foot soldiers." IGF-1 and growth factors function similarly to hormones, however hormones usually send long distance messages and IGF-1 and the growth factors usually send local messages.

FULL BODY TRAINING FOR POWER AND STRENGTH

SO YOU WANT TO BE THE BIGGEST, strongest guy in your gym? This workout will go a long way to elevating you to such a lofty status. Follow this routine to the letter while continually trying to use heavier and heavier pound ages as your body adapts, and you won’t be able to help but grow like on steroids.
>> Many of these exercises work multiple major muscle groups at once (for example, the first move hits your thighs, delts and core), and they build explosive strength at the same time.
>> While we’ve stressed slow in this power routine you want to “explode” through the positive contraction. For example, on the decline barbell press, bring the bar down carefully to your chest, then push as hard and as quickly as you can to lift the bar straight up.


SQUAT JUMP-PUSH PRESS
START: Stand up straight holding dumbbells at shoulder level, so your palms face each other.
MOVE: Descend into a full squat and then explode upward, jumping out of the squat as you press the weights to full extension. As you land, lower the weights back to your shoulders, making sure to bend your knees to “catch” them smoothly. Descend immediately into another rep. The movement is continuous; you shouldn’t come to a stop until the set ends.



SQUAT–UPRIGHT ROW
START: Stand up straight holding a pair of dumbbells at arms’ length in front of your thighs, palms facing your body.
MOVE: Bend your knees until your thighs are parallel to the floor. As you descend, pull the dumbbells up to the level of your collarbones. Straighten your arms and legs simultaneously to return to the start position.


INWARD/OUTWARD ROTATION
START: Stand up straight holding dumbbells upright at your chest and shoulders, elbows bent and fists facing each other.
MOVE: Extend the dumbbells out to your sides and arc them together in front of you (your arms are still fully extended). Bend your elbows to pull the dumbbells back into your chest. Do 10 reps using this technique and, without stopping, do the same number of reps in reverse, pressing the dumbbells forward and then bringing them out to your sides in an arc.
