i have a theoretical question about this since i've heard taking HGH only does 5 inches max lets say if one were to take alot would you grow abnormally like a giant until you discontinue it? while growth plates are open of course. this was a question i been interested to speculate on since natural giants produce alot of HGH almost to the point were they die because of that and from what i know they dont have it in there genes to be giants. like the tallest person ever father was 5'10 and im sure his mom was average female height. so to me it seems genes dont count when your body can produce alot of GH
Yes, if your growth plates are open you could become a giant. Look at Tony Robbins. Growth isn't that complex guys. It literally is just open growth plates + GH levels. I think I read somewhere that his tumor was generating something like ~30iu a day.
If you're a crazy motherfker you could do that. But you would obviously look weird, sound weird, and would probably cut your lifespan by ~20 years minimum.
Tony Robbins said he was like 5'3 when he was 15 and was constantly bullied and hated his life until he randomly got a tumor and shot up to 6'7. His physique is interesting to me, because he still has kind of the frame + neck of a very short (5'6-5'7) man despite being 6'7. I feel like some of his bones had already fused when he got the tumor, resulting in his very disproportionate appearance.
But also after his growth spurt, he was elected president of his high school. Looooool. Can you just imagine how much his life change? No wonder dude is a "life" guru, he probably loves his life.
