A while back I started taking HyperGH 14x, which is a daily HGH releaser designed specifically for bodybuilders.   I started taking it after having some surprising success with another hgh releaser/testesterone booster called Provacyl and you can read all about that experiment at this blog post/review.

Being 43 years old and a little soft around the middle I figured there might be something to all of this HGH stuff after a friend told me that he had tried a certain natural hgh releaser supplement (Provacyl), and felt that he’d had some success with it.  (“it really perked me up” – is what I think he said)  I decided to try it and you can read all about my experience in the Provacyl review I did (linked above).

Anyway… after finding success with Provacyl I decided to really upgrade and see if HyperGH 14x was any good.  Now I have to tell you that I am not in any way a ‘bodybuilder’.  Never have been.  I try to stay moderately active, but I don’t make a habit of exercising on a frequent basis if you know what I mean.

Why Try HyperGH 14X?

Spring is coming, we like to go to the beach, and I generally just wanted to try it and see if it would do anything for me as far as muscle building goes.  I also made a mental note to myself to start working out more.  Which I did.  I started doing some pushups, situps/crunches, bench presses, and now that winter is over – riding my bike every couple of days.  I did seem to have more energy than before after taking the Provacyl on a consistent basis.

When the HyperGH 14X arrived I stopped taking the Provacyl.  I didn’t want to skew any possible results.

What does HyperGH 14X consist of?

The ingredients as listed on the back of the box include:

• GTF Chromium (as chromium yeast)
• L-Arginine HCI
• L-Glutamine
• L-Gysine
• L-Tyrosine
• L-Lysine
• Tribulus Terrestris (vine)

Some other natural herbs like Astragalus root, and things like deer velvet antler, GABA, pituitary powder, and a few other things.  You can read the entire ingredients list as well as what they are individually supposed to do for you at  HyperGH 14x ingredients web page.

It sounded like some pretty potent stuff, and they had a few testimonials, but not a lot because the product has pretty much just come to market. (spring 2012)  The testimonials sounded good, and I thought it might be something to take to really get my motor running and motivate me to finally build those muscles that I always secretly wanted and what my wife of 20 years always told me I didn’t need because I was fine just the way I was.  Heh, heh.

Two parts to HyperGH 14x

The actual product consists of not only a supplement/pill you take twice a day, but also an HGH spray.  The 2 ounce spray bottle says ‘Alpha GPC Oral Spray’ on the label.  It also says ‘human growth hormone releaser’.  I guess they are the same thing, but I don’t know for sure.  It probably says on the website so I make a note to look later.  I actually don’t like being a guineau pig for new products, but with my recent success with the other product from the same company I decide to just go ahead and start taking it.

HyperGH 14X dosing protocol

The instructions say to take two tablets in the morning 15 minutes prior to your workout and also to take three sprays of the liquid hgh releaser I mentioned above.  I do that the first morning of taking it.  I actually worked out a little bit too, but not more than usual.  Some pushups, bar curls, bench press, etc., maybe 10 or 15 minutes worth and I didn’t work so hard to even break a sweat. (pretty much my normal workout that I do 2 or 3 days a week)

I also remember to take two more pills and three sprays before bed – per the instructions.

HyperGH 14X Side Effects?

The next morning my lower back is sore.  Like my kidneys are hurting.  Just like they do when I don’t drink enough water after being outside in the hot sun working, or at the beach too long.  I drink a whole bunch of water that day while continuing to take the product.  It says to take the same amount whether you plan on working out or not.

Some HyperGH 14x Results

After four days I really start to notice that I can feel my muscles.  I looked in the mirror with my shirt off and didn’t notice anything different, but I certainly had a new awareness that there was something going on in my muscles.

Does HyperGH 14x make you sick?

The best way I can describe it is to say that it felt like that feeling you get just before you come down with the flu.  Do you know what I am talking about?  Your muscles ache a little bit and you feel like you are about to get sick.  You feel a little bit weak, etc.  That’s what it was like, except it was very subtle.  A bit irritating actually, and thought I might actually be getting the flu, but I had just gotten over it (the whole family had it) so I knew it must be the product.

I took it for ten days and then had to stop. (temporarily)   Even though I had continued exercising on my ‘not so regular workout schedule’ I still felt ‘run-down’ and I knew there was no way I could be ‘sick that long’.  I wasn’t actually sick though.  I did have a runny nose the whole time.  I attributed that to spring allergies.

The pain in my lower back went away after the first few days of taking it.  I attributed that to the product actually flushing out toxins and fat deposits because I ended up losing five pounds the first week even though I was eating more than usual.  I was hungry!

The funny thing is this.  The day after I stopped taking the product my runny nose cleared up and I no longer had that slight ‘before the flu’ ache that persisted pretty much the entire time of taking it.  Now I can’t completely rule out a coincidence.  Maybe I actually was sick.  More than likely all of the above was true.

I think the product was flushing out toxins in my body to a great extent.  I am familiar with things like colon cleanses and that you often feel sick for a couple of days when starting to do a whole body cleanse.

HyperGH 14x is designed specifically for bodybuilders after all.  These guys and ladies are already quite fit, have a much better diet than me I am sure, and generally have healthier bodies.    They probably won’t react that way to start.  Probably will have no ‘symptoms’ at all.

If you are not looking to get big muscles – take something else.  Seriously.

If you are someone who sees some of the benefits of taking an HGH releaser but is not interested in building up your muscles to any great extent there are other products not so potent like the Provacyl I mentioned above as well as another very popular one called GenF20 and the like.

I continue taking HyperGH 14x (for now)

After taking three days off from the product I am back on it.  I wish I had taken a picture to show the true ‘before’.  I will try to get a current picture for your and post it here.  I asked my wife if could notice a difference and she said she definitely could.  (this is after a total of 14 days… three of which I didn’t even take the stuff)

Now… I don’t like feeling sick, so I am only going to take the stuff in the morning whether I work out within 15 minutes or not.  I found that if I took it right before going to bed like they recommend for the second dose of the day that I had trouble falling asleep.  It seems to jack me up a little bit.

So I am going to take this HyperGH 14x hgh releaser stuff just once a day for the next several days and see how I feel.  If I feel great then I may go back to the two doses a day and see if my muscle building results improve.

I’ll keep updating this HyperGH 14x review as time permits.  As yet I am still undecided on the stuff, but I can honestly say that my muscles are bigger after just a couple of weeks of taking it.

If you haven’t already been to the HyperGH14x site I put a banner down below that you can click on to check it out at the official site.  There is a lot of information there.  It looks like a good product.  I am just not sure yet if it is for me.
