It is best to cycle it 4-5 weeks on,then have the same time off.This is a proven safe method that many have tried with good results.Some people cycle it much longer,but its always best to play it safe.I think you dont need to go higher than 15iu,as you will get almost the same results with higher doses to some extend.

Good to hear about your gains. As for the OFF period, well every one is different when it comes to that but most will run it 4 weeks ON then 4 weeks OFF.

As for further benefits, it is more than likely that there will be none. Most won't even gain what you have gained as insulin is mostly beneficial for recovery purposes, it's not something you use to gain muscle mass.

Good point goose. Anymore than 10IU isn't necessary. Breaching the 10IU mark will increase the side effects more than anything else.

Have you ever run slin ed or only on workout days? If you ran it ed, could you still run it 4 weeks on/off? I assume you were using GH at the same time?

Hi, how's your GH cycle going? Well I hope.

My pockets are a bit too empty for GH around this time, so no GH for me. I use insulin with AAS though, and I use it PWO only (Monday to Friday). I've never had a problem running it this way. However, I have used slin 7 days p/week 4 weeks ON/OFF, once again, never had a problem.

There is no scientific proof stating it is best to use insulin 4 weeks ON/OFF. People use the 4 weeks ON/OFF method as that method works for most (if not everyone) that brings minimal sides and maximum gains. So that is why we always recomend the 4 week ON/OFF theory. As for that being the best way to run slin, well I can't say it is because for all I know running insulin another way may be better both results and side effects wise. I suppose they would have to do all sorts of tests to find out what is the best way to cycle insulin.

So, can you run insulin longer than 4 weeks? Perhaps, perhaps not. I don't know because I don't know the consequences once you breach that 4 - 6 week mark of non stop insulin use. But, what I do know is that everyone that has used the 4 weeks ON/OFF method has been happy, so I suggest you stick to that method as well.

lately i have been running it much longer without detecable side effects (did bloodwork incl. bloodsugar level). i always did 4 on/4 off and i still think thats a good starting point but nowadays i run it as long as i like keeping my diet in check (12 weeks +). running it mon-fri.

I agree going above 12iu or so doesnt seem to give much more than some hyp bouts. I ran it up to 16iu but went hypo a lot easier even increasing carb intake post shot.

The cycle is going well, but I had to drop the T4 due to an increased resting heart rate that would not subside. Thanks

Thanks Rodge. Starting back on slin today. Just have to buy another insulin pen as the one I have is full of GH.

You're exactly right. I get terribly sleepy after I eat at around 15-20iu with a general feeling of lethargy all day long. 10iu's works for me . Thanks

I run slin just the way Gear described. After all, I did all my research right here before ever trying it. I've never seen any need to go over 10iu's. I did stay on for about 8 weeks once and once I stopped I started having trouble with my blood sugar. It seems to be back to normal now but I won't be using slin longer than 4 weeks on 4 weeks off anymore.
