Ok here is the link if you don't believe me. Not that anyone will act like they didn't know, I mean the man is old and yet is muscular. Arnold can't do it while in Politics but hey Sylvester is a movie actor so he can. He says in this article that men after 40 have no other means of getting muscular again and that HGH is a great thing and that it will be over the counter in 10 years ? WTF ? He also states it has no bad effects ? Notice he is bigger then he's ever been in the past. What is the truth about HGH ? Hmmm. Do we believe this guy ? What are your thoughts ?

Ok so can u tell me what the difference is between steroids and HGH ?

Stallone link to HGH = to Steroids by some people is OK !

Well the growth hormone you are talking about is not steroids. Not at all. And it is meant for men over 40 who's bodies cannot poduce enough testosterone. Please do not make false accusations.

Ok so then it's just a small little prescription to make you gain more growth hormone so your muscles can get giant like. Ok got it ! So I guess he thinks Bonds is innocent.

I think you are missing the point ... "Sylvester Stallone says Steroids is OK!?" is not at all what Stallone said. HGH is not a steroid. Look it up. Don't make false accusations. Even the article you linked to said "Anyone who calls it a steroid is grossly misinformed". At least read the article before you post.

Yes Stallone is saying those words " Anyone who calls it a steroid is grossly misinformed" his words, he is saying that because people are saying it is steroids. But for you I will change the topic title.

HGH is not steroids, hence why they are referred to seperately. :| So, before you go making absurd claims I suggest you do some research before you say something.

The whole big HGH thing is because baseball players use it to gain advantages. You probably hear that and think HGH is horrible, but it's really not, it's just used by some people in negative ways.

I am pro-HGH myself. It's natural and safe if administered correctly.

The only reason it is such a hot topic is because it throws off baseball stats. Since baseball is heavy on stats, and essentiall a stats-based game, many fans are upset about it. Other then this, it should be legal, and in fact, I would be down to buy it.

The new title isn't much better, either.

"Sylvester Stallone says HGH = to Steroids by some people is Ok ! ?"

I'll assume he forgot a few key commas or parantheses and is trying to mask his ignorance by claiming he's not the only one who thinks Human Growth Hormones is just a fancy way of saying "steroids".

Sly kicks more ass everytime I read about him. It's not steroids and it's not like he's in a competition. He's literally taking this for our entertainment so we can enjoy the new Rambo film (and Rocky films). He's the man.

Sylvester Stallone says he used human growth hormone to get buff for the new "Rambo" movie, and defends its use. "HGH (human growth hormone) is nothing," the 61-year-old actor tells Time magazine in its Feb. 4 issue. "Anyone who calls it a steroid is grossly misinformed."

who cares if Sly takes HGH. We are talking about an actor, not an athelete. If he has to cheat to keep his Rambo physique at age 60, then fine.

HGH is basically steroids. Human Growth Hormones help increase protein synthesis which is not bad, but it has bad side effects, like steroids it causes extreme agression and may contribute to diabetes. I dont believe people should be using HGH for mass building purposes because it is supplementing an unnecessary amount of growth hormones to your body.

What the hell... it is nothing like steroids. HGH is completely safe unless administered incorrectly. As for causing "extreme agression adn contributing ot diabetes", what study are you getting that information from - as it is incorrect. Those who take HGH do so in order to replenish what they lost through aging.

It is very much like steroids, It increases muscle hypertrophy and a insane rate, you are supplementing hormones already produced in your body for an uneccesary amount. HGH has the same effects as steroids at nearly the same rate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HGH_controversies

I have been lifting weights for many years, and i would never consider using HGH because of the side effects and i think it is basically cheating. You get muscle mass with little effort, i know people would like that but its not natural. The only reason i got to bench 415 lbs was through hard work, not using HGH.

Do you even know what you are saying? Drinking whey protein increases muscle hypertrophy too, and so does lifting weights. So is drinking a protein shake the same as taking steroids too?

Yes drinking protein shakes increase muscle hypertrophy, but not nearly at the same rate. It can take up to six weeks to see noticeable results from regular whey protein, but with HGH you may see these gains in about a week, it has nearly the same effect as steroids therefore i dont support the use of it period.

At the age of 16, whey protein is going to yield a higher rate of muscle hypertrophy in comparision to taking HGH injections. HGH is used by older athletes who have lost natural HGH through the process of aging. It is no different then older folk having to take fiber supplements, or other vitamins to offset the effects of aging. Should those be illegalized too?

Oh noes, grandpa is using a oxygen tank! It's unnatural!

edit: I suggest consulting some articles that source actual medical studies, instead of basing your opinion on random google searchs.

They are not the same thing. You debate political issues because there is conflicting sides. There are no conflicting sides to this, they've been established as different substances even though they have similarities.

A lot of people think Stallone is stupid because of his Rocky character, but if you ever listened to him talk you'd know he's quite intelligent. He's even an artist. You should see some of his paintings. You fail.

Lol. Honestly, anothre rambo.....

Honestly, it held it's own. If you weren't so quick to judge like every other narrow-minded moviegoer out there you might find an entertaining action movie.

If steroids compel him to make more pathetic remakes of his old films, then so be it. I will continue not watching them.bman784

They're not remakes...you also fail.

Meh, he's 61. Whatever side effects they(HGH) have, most 61 year olds probably have more side effects after they break their hip.

It's all about molecular structure, folks.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steroid

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_hormone

Not a steroid. That's a fact.

It's not a steroid. It's not "basically a steroid".

I don't care what it does or what its effects are. Steroids are "this", and HGH is "that". End of story.
