    L-Carnatine - How best to use it?

    HI All,

    About 6 years ago, I was injecting L-Carnatine into my love handles, just before Cardio.. I cant remember if I had any improvements from it, but I have since been told its not to be used like that..

    Can anyone confirm? If so, how often should I be doing it, and how many mls (per oblique)?

    The other option is to mixed it with my Stanazol injection..

    Thanks

    I found this on a horse training site. I also read similar things in other sites.

    "L Carnitine injection is an amino acid supplement to enhance energy production for performance. Features and Benefits
    L-CARNITINE is an amino acid which helps transport fats into muscle cells.
    L-CARNITINE is essential in the transport of fats into muscle cells for energy production. The muscle levels of L-CARNITINE determine the exercise capacity of muscles. By using fats as energy for muscle contractions, the body is sparing glycogen and delaying the accumulation of lactic acid.
    L-CARNITINE delays muscle fatigue by reducing lactic acid formation, and improves performance and endurance.
    Composition:
    L Carnitine 200 mg/mL
    Indications
    L-CARNITINE forms an essential part of the transport system which moves fatty acids into the mitachondria (cell furnaces) for energy production. It thus acts as a buffer by inhibiting lactic acid buildup in muscles, helping to delay fatigue and prevent Tying Up. Demand for L-CARNITINE in heavily exercising horses is often not met from the diet, as large amounts are consumed during exercise. Supplementing with L-CARNITINE results in improved energy supply, increased use of fatty acids as an energy source, decreased lactate buildup, and a significant increase in maximum work output.
    L-CARNITINE is essential for normal heart function.
    Supplementing with L-CARNITINE improves both sprint and endurance performance. Performance horses can rapidly run out of glycogen as an energy source, but will rarely run out of fats. Mobilising fats as an energy source helps prevent the accumulation of lactic acid in muscles, hence delaying fatigue and possible Tying Up, and significantly improving the capacity of muscles to work harder for longer.
    Dosage and Administration
    Injection: 3 mL per 100 kg bodyweight (15 mL per average horse) by intravenous or intramuscular injection 2 - 3 times weekly. Give final dose 4 - 6 hours before hard or fast work. Preferably use pastes for regular supplementation, and those who prefer injectables may consider the injection pre-event, to achieve high blood levels. (Sole use of paste formulations will not reduce the effect in any way). Veterinarians have reported significant improvement in horses using high doses of 20 - 25 mL twice weekly
    Paste: 10 mL orally 2 - 3 times weekly.
    L-CARNITINE is commonly used in combination with Adenosine Injection, Pain Injection, and Tie Up Shot as necessary.
    Presentation
    100 mL sterile injection for intramuscular or intravenous injection.
    Storage
    Store below 25°C (Air Conditioning). Protect from light.
    For
    Horses
    Dogs
    Greyhounds
    General Notes
    Key Features & Benefits:
    * Muscle levels of L-CARNITINE determine the exercise capacity of muscles.
    * L-CARNITINE forms the essential transport system for use of fats as an energy source.
    * L-CARNITINE may help delay muscle fatigue and improve endurance.
    * L-CARNITINE is essential for normal heart function.
    * Performance horses recover more efficiently when supplemented with L-CARNITINE."

    thanks.. is there a HUman section?? lol

    Those who have used it, can you help please?
    How often should I inject?
    How many Mls should I inject?
    Where should I inject?

    Thanks!
