Summary of my IGF-1 PCT so far

**AleX-69** · 09-12-2006, 01:16 PM

Just wanted to give you some input concerning IGF-1 for PCT.
I used 50mcg shot bilateraly in the delts on training days (5 days a week)Pre Workout for 4 weeks alongside my normal PCT.

Pros:

- i did recover pretty well, but i usually do cause i mostly run short cycles. Don't know if anything can be atributed to the IGF-1 here.
- PumpS. They were simply amazing especially if a high carb meal was ingested right before training. Interestingly this effect diminished during the curse of my PCT...

- Localized muscle growth. My delts have gotten bigger in PCT. Already got some postive comments which support my observations. I also gained some weight during PCT approx. 2lbs didn't notice much fat burning properties though.
- Vascularity was slightly up during IGF-1 use.

Cons:

- slight joint pain (wirsts)
- price...

- some lethargy during the day and difficulty gettin out of bed.

Will i use it again:

Well i don't think i will use IGF-1 again for PCT, beacause it comes with a rather heavy price tag and i don't think the results observed are enough for me to invest more in this substance. Moreover there is still some debate by how much Igf-1 causes organ growth and or tumor growth. Don't want to push the envelope to much. Right now i have a really small waist and don't wanna ruin it with a perma gut.

good thread bro!

I'm on week 4 of my PCT IGF regimen:

-pumps getting stronger week by weel
- recovery faster
- vascularity enhanced
- strength slighter higher
- BF levels slowly tapering down (can see it)
- muscles look "fuller"

but yeah, its expensive and i too wont be using it for PCT again anytime soon

Great info and results! Something worked right if you actually gained weight during PCT. Not sure what you paid, but considering the "investment" - money, blood, sweet, diet rest, etc you made n your AAS cycle, maximizing the gains you retained may have been a bargin.

Congratulations.
