Comment on Hugh Jackman as The Wolverine 2000 vs 2024

Couple that with a ten week cut and some diuretics plus simple carbs just before filming. Six months bulking, three months cutting, every meal calorie counted and tracking macros. Still very hard on your body and requires more or less constantly thinking about.

I heard Stalone regularly uses human growth hormones.

Oh absolutely. I’m not really sure why.

Doesn’t it promote muscle growth and generate some of the same effects you had as a young person?

Honestly, I’m not convinced. I know why people take it, but I genuinely think it’s because of the name. There’s a school of thought that says bodybuilders truly “exploded” in size when HGH came onto the scene, but I think it’s more likely this change was due to insulin abuse. Some people say it makes their skin, hair and nails nice, and perhaps helps them lean down better around the middle. But I mostly hear people saying it is very underwhelming, not worth the money, and gives them carpal tunnel syndrome.
