    hgh and igf-1

    i know most of hgh's growth effects come from it's stimulation of igf-1, but what about it's fat burning capabilities? does igf-1 get credit for this as well?

    Both play a role...GH directly, as well as IGF-1

    From the personal experiences I have come across within my research on IGF-1 (from Steroidoloy, Elite, Muscle Chemistry, Anabolex and here) it seems all who have had sucess with IGF reduced bodyfat by at least 1-3% or more as this may not any your question if you are looking for the exact mechaincs on how IGF relates to fat burning, but it seems to have a great effect....

    do you treat igf1 in the same manner the you do with GH, they seem to be very similar, i know nothing about igf-1.

    IGF is a little more complex to run than HGH.HGH you shoot ittwice daily and that's about it.With IGF you have to watch diet closely,monitor your urine with keto sticks.Spot inject after work out and so on.

    btw, where do you purchase keto sticks? and are they really that necessary?

    At your local pharmacy.........I feel they're necessary.I took 3 readings a day to see if I was coming into ketosis or not.

    okay, thanks.
    and i assume that most of the time you were in ketosis, right?
    btw, were you shooting 2x/day or just once?
