insulin is great stuff!!! and you dont need alot to get benefits! and i have never felt close to going in a coma or anything else, so someone has to be totally retarded to f this up and wind up hurt or dead.
I concur. It's a compound that needs to be understood and appreciated to the fullest extent before using. I'm not going to say I'm a swole 280lb beast who's 8% bf and looking for an edge to eek past 300lbs at under 10% bf. But I will say that I understand this compound on paper and in real life and think it's great stuff if you know how to use it.
Contrary to popular belief, you won't become diabetic by using it. I don't know where that myth came from. You become diabetic when you abuse your body and force it to crank out insulin inappropriately (example, eating sugar all the time and not living an active lifestyle). If you're active and have low glycogen stores, consuming a high glycemic carbohydrate with EXOGENOUS insulin is a good thing. It's much better to bang back slin and consume high GI carbs as opposed to just the carbs alone.
If anyone understands hormones and the negative feedback loop, they should at least be able to guess at why insulin can be advantageous. On top of serving it's regular purpose, exogenous insulin dosed as liberal levels can create more new glycogen than your body would alone. Genetic predisposition can also lead to challenges with this hormone.
It's an anabolic hormone obviously, helps to stave catabolism and increase nitrogen retention, can help with insulin sensitivity if you have a strict monitored diet and can obviously expedite recovery and protein turn over. It's basically good shit, if you know how to use it safely and without getting fat. It's easy to get big on slin, but a little more difficult to get big and remain lean. It's a compound that cookie cutter internet protocols are no good for. You need a blood sugar monitor, a notebook and some patience.
I've yet to use it on cycle but I figure that I'll hold out until I hit a plateau. Just got back on low dose hormones and I'm getting hard, lean and more full. I'll start carb cycling in preparation for the slin and then resume my otherwise low carb diet with slin. Most, if not all my glycogen is stored post cardio and post workout and then only trace carbs at other times. Really helped to improve my insulin sensitivity when I used it off cycle. I can only imagine what it'll do with androgens in my system now
I can maybe make an update thread with some of my observations once I hit it up again. It's Humalog by the way. I've considered using a longer type of insulin like Lantus but then the recent news article put some doubt in my mind. Humalog FTW!!
