    I'm 245 lbs and I used 16iu's PWO my last cycle. I think I'll bump it to 20iu's for my next one...

    4 weeks on, 4 weeks off, though I think I'm gonna do 3 on/3 off for my next cycle. I didn't notice any sides @ 16iu's. I just consumed the calculated amount of carbs required for 16iu's of slin. Occassionally, when I was testing the minimum limit of carb intake, I would get a headache, but that's about it. 10-15 minutes after consuming some more carbs and the headache goes away. I've only used Humulin-R, btw. I'd love to try Humalog, but I don't really like the hassle of ordering online and needing a prescription (on most Canadian sites), since I can just walk into Walgreen's and buy Humulin-R on the spot...

    I use 10 i.u's. I have went up to 15 i.u's before but I dont like the feeling I get about 3-5 hrs after injecting when using more then 10 i.u's. I get light headed and have to take in extra carbs.....I can tell a difference in the sides above 10 i.u's. I use Humulin-R and take my carbs right when I take the shot and two hours after the shot.

    With Humulin-R, I have a PWO shake, then a small meal 1-1.5 hours later, then another meal 2 hours from then, and then I resume my normal eating schedule. This method has yielded me minimal, if any, side effects...

    I'm on a twenty week cycle with gear, slin and GH. My gains started slowing down in week 5, week 6 I added humalog to the mix and out of nowhere came 8lbs. I'm in week 7 right now and still climbing. Insulin when used correctly and carefully is the bomb!

    im pretty impressed so far...i had a good cycle, and im useing this in my pct with some clen, nolva, and clomid...

    Im actually up 5 lbs since sunday night, but i think alot of it is the excess of food, and protien that im taking in to hold on to my gains that i made...

    But the pumps are good, and havent lost a bit of vascularity...so things look good so far

    With Humalog I would never think of going higher than 12 IU.

    I think as a beginner, if you are a beginner with slin usage, there is no need to breach the 10IU mark. However, first time i used humalog, i worked my way up to 10IU and felt fine. Next time I use Humalog again, I will most probably breach the 10IU mark as using 10IU last time did me fine like I said.

    we started the same day using insulin. im up to 8ius a day in the morning and 8 pwo. ill probably only go up to 10ius. im also shooting alot of test,deca,fina and d-bol with it, and soon will be taking hgh at 6ius a day. but i never felt any symptoms of hypo at all yet and that was my main concern since this is my first time using insulin.

    I started using slin last week. I started at 4ius and now I'm at 10ius pwo only with no side effects.
