Is insulin useless when used by itself?

Is it useless to use slin PWO, if you are not on any AAS/GH/T3/IGF Etc....??

[nvr2bigsnd]

I think so plus insulin aint worth the risk period

[simster1]

Insuline does work on its own and works even better PWO with creatine.

[spound]

Would T3 help it to work even better? If so, how?

[PT]

of course insulin still works by itself. if you shoot it post workout and drink your carbs, protein and creatine it's still going to push it into your muscles. i think its way better with roids or growth but it still has benifits when used alone.

I loved the results I got from slin and creatine. I used it precycle and had no big problems with hypo or diet. I was using Humalog at 10iu's PWO. Get some glucose tabs just to be safe and also a glucose monitor for about 50 bucks is very useful.

Dont comment if you dont know what you're talking about.


Spound, insulin works great when used in conjunction with AAS, GH, IGF-1 among others, however, using insulin alone does have its benefits, dont let anyone tell you its useless by itself.

T3 with Insulin isnt that great:
"With the huge increases in fat mass often accompanying insulin use, it seems like a simple solution to use thyroid hormone. Unfortunately, this doesn't work out very well. The reason is that thyroid hormone (specifically T3 and possibly T4) increases the amount of the "bad" IGF1-BP's mentioned earlier;IGFBP2 and IGFBP4. This may not seem like a big deal if one is not using drugs to stimulate IGF-1 synthesis, but IGF-1 levels are naturally stimulated through acts like stretching, and even natural testosterone /GH increases. All of these things normally accompany workouts (if you know what you're doing), which is the best time to take insulin. So by having all of the free IGF-1 bound by IGFBP3s' evil siblings, much of the anabolic effect of insulin is lost! Since T3 (triiodothyronine) is the main culprit, does that mean that T4 (tetraiodothyronine) can be used with no detrimental effect? NO, because T4 is mostly effective by converting to T3, which leaves you with the same problem. In fact, T4 could very well do the same thing. So if you want to maximize the anabolic effectiveness of insulin while minimizing bodyfat accumulation, use another fat burner and leave the thyroid alone. "

Try running it with Clen , it works great!

Yea, i am experienced with use, i have used slin b4, i just asked bc there was a thread in the diet forum by CPTSTEELE where swole said it was useles without being used in conjunction with any of the other chemicals I mentioned. I am going to be using it during PCT, but when I heard this, I actually thought about extending my cycle and coasting with test only until i got to the BF i wanted to be at (8-9%) bc I am cutting on slin right now w/ prop, but my cycle is about to end. BTW, its going great!!!

That's what I thought, but wasn't sure bc of swole's post. I would use clen with it during PCT, but clen scares me man. I will probably throw ephedra in there for cardio and lifting.
Thanks for the reply

Insulin will allow your body to be able to absorb more nutrients that usual faster. It is used as an addetive. How your body reacts to this I don't know. Some react well, some don't, but it defenitly helps even if unnoticable.

in my opinion it is not worth the risk cant you f__king read

haha, someones got a little chip on their shoulder

With AS people recomend waiting until around 21-23 before use. Would this apply to insulin too, seeing as diabetics are of all ages I would assume that there would be no recomended age am I right ?

You may position insulin wherever you like in your AAS cycle. I usually use it for the first 4 weeks, at least 4 weeks OFF, then again and through PCT also. As for ages, there is no such thing. No matter if you are 18 or 58, no one should use drugs as such.

Insulin by itself, or should I say with Creatine, has served me well.

[powerliftmike]

you have a right to your opinion. no need to get pissed off. i was scared to use insulin for the 1st time, but with proper dosing and meal timing its pretty easy and safe to use

[thunderin]

Agreed. Insulin is an extremely anabolic agent. Just make sure your diet is near perfect or your waistline will increase, at least mine has a bit.

[JimInAK]

Insulin use directly affects your blood glucose. If you learn about diabetes and the regulation of your blood glucose, then you can really make an intelligent decision about whether your use of insulin would be beneficial.

One of the best books to learn about blood glucose issues is Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution. If you read and understand that book, you will understand about insulin, the different types and how they affect your blood glucose and about other drugs that can help you control your glucose level. There is some complexity to using insulin and major differences between types of insulin and their correct usage.

You can buy a glucose meter from just about any drugstore. Without one, everything you do with regard to insulin is a guess. In the U.S., Walmart sells them for about $20 and the test strips are about 40 cents each.

Yes it can be very useful but I suggest only for the smart,,advanced athlete.

If you are so opinionated against insulin and it's risks, why are you even commenting on the insulin forums?

On the real subject, I agree with the insulin/creatine mix. I've gotten great results from using the two in conjunction. I try to throw a lot of protein in there too post-workout. As for a mix with other chemicals or even AAS, I have had no experience, so I can't comment further.

[Alphatier]

So if one was to cycle insulin , how long would he go on and off to play it safe?

Is fat gain something that'll 100% happen when taking slin, or is it possible to lower BF?
