    why insulin

    Hi all
    I understand insulins role in shuttling glycogen and protein into muscle cells as well as fat into fat cells. Also that its whats responsible for the monstrous size of today's pros. What I can't understand is why there's a need to inject supplemental insulin, when millions of people become hyperinsulinemic purely by virtue of a very high carb diet. Woulnt injecting insulin and taking in carbs amount to exactly the same thing but in an even more dangerous manner? How would it not lead to obesity and insulin insensitivity rather than muscle mass?
    I've used my natural insulin response to bulk by eating high carb before ever cycling, and while it helped me put on serious size, I also put on a lot of visceral and belly fat which is being a beach to get rid of without droppinh carbs. Im not interested in shooting insulin, just curious, and I haven't seen this answered anywhere. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me understand this

    Because by injecting insulin, you can take in more carbs and nutrients at optimal times than by relying on your pancreas' limited insulin production.

    Yea your body produces insulin on its on so why use insulin? That's like saying your body produces its own testosterone so why cycle?

    To achieve certain levels of freakish mass you'll need additional excessive hormones to take your body places that it couldn't naturally achieve. If it were naturally possible everybody would be huge.

    Insulin, HGH, High levels of Anabolics with a proper diet and intense training will result in little to no fat gain while using insulin. All these are a bodybuilders profession

    I was also wondering about insulin and its benefits of incorporating it into a cycle

    Because you have to bear in mind its the synergistic effects of a whole bunch of drugs that allow muscle gains and fat loss, no one just takes insulin its own, they take them with GH, Anabolics, T3 amongst other things.

    Do some research. It's dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, I would only think about using it if you're trying to get to freakish levels

    Thanks Bonaparte and Johnny for the inputs, though i guess comparing it to test isnt quite the same as test would never go dangerously high from diet alone. guess I hadn't factored in gh to keep fat off..
