Maybe, don't waste time and do it. Regardless of this, HGH is even more potent than Testosterone in increasing muscle mass and lowering body fat, so everyone in this board can benefit from this.

>>39623491
y sure

but how much is the increase?

its probably minimal.

and wouldnt you get the same thing from getting out of breath from cardio ?
>>
>>39623563

From 1.5 to 5.5. That's a significant increase.

>and wouldnt you get the same thing from getting out of breath from cardio ?

I suppose, but this is exercise free.
>>
>>39623563
Read the links, it has to do with blood acidity going up during breath holding from CO2
>>
>>39623578

>blood acidity

So, would going Keto increase HGH too then?

what does this do for people past 25 ?

Im three months into being 20

Im still okay right?

Id suggest doing vacuums while holding your breath. Double the gains. Or pumping vacuums, pushing hard out and pulling hard in.

Can be done anywhere

It's not a healthy thing though, didnt have time to read well but it's probably not the same as having long term high ph blood. It could work I guess

This, can someone elaborate? Or do we do holding breath sessions like once a day?
>>
>>39623691
yes, in fact, you could also mew while you do it (read up on Mike mew for jaw gainz) since if you mew completely (above 70% of the tongue pushing on the palate) you can block your airway so maybe if you use those two you can change your breathing pattern along with tongue posture and proper swallowing and get a better jaw + hgh
sounds like DUDE BROSCIENCE LMAO shit but I have nothing to lose lol I'm gonna try dis shit

Is this a meme? What's with this HGH shit?

Who is: "The Iceman"?

and

How: are you autists so far behind?

I've been doing this for 3 years now combined with ice baths. Past the first week (I'm pretty sure I pushed it wayyyy too hard with ice baths and got the flu from the amount of stress) I have not been in ill health ONCE.

Feels good tbqh famalams.

I only do the breathing when I'm in bed at night, the last few minutes i'm in the shower (soap up, rinse off, brush my teeth, rinse my mouth) and when I'm taking an ice bath.

Ice baths usually last 15-20 minutes. Never more than 25.

>>39625637
Nah bro, men still grow until 20 on average. Not a lot though.

But it means that our Epiphyseal plates haven't closed yet and there is still a change to grow.

Judging from the published article I'd say that Experiment III was the most effective.

"Experiment III consisted of a combination of hyperventilation immediately followed by maximal voluntary breath-holding"


After the age of ~20, HGH will not increase your height, but only increase muscle mass. It is because the Epiphyseal plates have closed so the limb bones are locked in place and will not grow anymore. The side effect of HGH is growing cartilage (ears, nose, hands/feet).

wouldnt the same shit come from exercise as well?

as in you breath heavy when you exercise or between sets?

are you just replicating physical activity, and tricking the body?
>>
>>39626978
Cardio, yes but otherwise it's not really an aerobic process.

I freedive for abalone and fish... noticed lifting has really increased my finning power and breath hold duration will be cool if it works the other way too

Huh. I used to subconsciously do this all the time as a kid. I'm 6'4" now, maybe that's linked.

You're not supposed to do it all the time and I'm pretty sure if you do actual deep breaths where you still hold your breath it would make no difference in your cortisol I think.

https://adamcap.com/2013/11/29/nose-knows-case-nasal-breathing-high-intensity-exercise/

It seems to me that all of this is tied to how quickly the body restores normal pH during exercise and how big changes to pH were in the first place ie. the intensity of exercise.
The reason why we breathe through the mouth during all out effort is because it allows easier removal of CO2 (not because we lack O2) which brings pH to normal values faster than it would be through the nose (larger volume of air in and out). If we force nasal breathing even in high intensity i'm guessing you'll get similar hormonal response to OP's study ie. body stays acidic for longer time which is a potent stimulus for HGH secretion.
Also, it allows better oxygenation and blood flow to the muscles as per Bohr effect.

Go to http://sci-hub.io/ and type 3100467 if you want to read OP's study without splashing out some shekels.

shut the fuck up lol

>>39631279
I literally never breath and im like 8 feet tall lmao, its legit bros
>>
>>39623626
Probabaly not - your body will produce more bicarbonate chronically to mediate the acidic ketone bodies and your pH will remain at normal physiological levels.

Less likely to do this with acute CO2 increases if you're breath holding every day or 2.

That's interesting. Do know if you guys know Wim Hof (the ice man) but he recommended doing shit like that.
>>
>>39625761
Isn't that dangerous though? I recall reading somewhere that some divers used hyperventilation to decrease the amount of CO2 in their lungs, so they could hold their breath longer, because the uncomfortable feeling associated with holding your breath is caused by CO2 levels increasing in your lung, however it increases the risk of fainting. I mean I guess you wouldn't die if you fainted in your room, but it wouldn't be good for your body either.

I've been smoking packs of cigarettes lately and started two years ago. I chainsmoke too. Lately my weight is dropping so easily. I can put on muscle fast. Im always calm.

My body requires a very low amount of oxygen to run correctly. I used to experiment as a kid by only taking in so much air. After a couple minutes it's all you need.

This is probably why.
