Time constraints on dosing IGF-1 PWO?

**Igifuno** · 11-18-2005, 11:09 PM

Is there any rule of thumb stating the amount of time allowed to dose IGF-1 PWO. Should it be as soon as humanly possible after the workout? If so, how long after the workout would a dose be less effective?

I've been told and have used the method of taking the shot 15 mins PWO and protein/carb shake.

asap cause that way you can benefit fully of the nutrient shutling properties. but its gonna do his job anyway as long as dose/diet are in check.

perfect, thanks guys. does anyone take thier dose to the gym with them and inject in a stall in order to get the dose ASAP? actually, that may not be a good idea due to the need for refrigeration, right?

Yes you can take it to the gym.LR3 IGF-1 won't go bad at room temp.Gropep(the manufacturer of IGF) posted a study to confirm this.

The stability of a liquid solution of LR3IGF-I was monitored for a period of two years at storage conditions of -20 C, +4 C, +22 C, and +37 C. The final concentration of LR3IGF-I was in acetic acid. At various time points, samples were taken and compared to a lyophilized control (stored at 4 C). Listed below are the stability results for each respective storage condition.

Storage Condition: -20 C (-4 F)
Biological Potency No Change up to 2 years
Immunological Activity No Change up to 2 years
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 2 years
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 2 years

Storage Condition: +4 C (39.2 F)
Biological Potency No Change up to 2 years
Immunological Activity No Change up to 2 years
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 2 years
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 2 years

Storage Condition: +22 C (71.6 F)
Biological Potency No Change up to 2 years
Immunological Activity No Change up to 2 years
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 2 years
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 2 years

Storage Condition: +37 C (98.6 F)
Biological Potency No Change up to 1 year
Immunological Activity No Change up to 1 year
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 1 year
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 1 year

Thanks, Pin.

i have a logistical question regarding all this. Is it better to bring your IGF and BW vials with you to the gym . . . or should you mix the two in a pin and take that?

How about taking several mixed loaded pins with you on a 3 or 4 day trip . . . ?? Does anyone use those slin kits that have a place for a small ice pack to keep things chilled out. . .
