    IGF-1 during AAS cycle or during PCT?

    Which would help preserve the gains made on AAS:
    1) IGF-1 on cycle?

    2) IGF-1 during PCT?

    I'm curious, does IGF have any effect on creation of new fat cells?

    LR3 and PCT is fine, I think it should be run the first time sith no AAS to see how your body reacts. Then if your body reacts well to it add it to an AAS cycle.

    I've never heard that it did, it does help with the burning of old fat cells

    ok I have heard to wait until the AAS kick in--so whereabouts in a cycle would that fall if the following cycle was being followed:

    weeks 1-15 test cyp 400/wk
    weeks 1-13 EQ 400/wk
    weeks 13-19 Winny 50e/d

    It should peak about week 6 with the eq.

    I would use it pre-cycle. Then take weeks 1-4 of your cycle off of the igf-1, then weeks 5 on i would run the igf again.

    Ideally for me i would run it 1 month pre cycle, take weeks 1-4 off, run it weeks 5-8, take 8-12 off, then run it during pct.

    It would help with satellite cell recruitment, let your body normalize, then sky-rocket again during the peak of your cycle, then again during pct to solidify your gains.

    If i were to do that i would also be running a powerful androgen though to maximize gains, such as a hefty dose of tren if tolerable.
