    Pondering

    Hey guys. This should be common sense that athletes especially BBer's in this case would wanna keep insulin low at all times as this is a "fat storing" hormone. Now why would we want to use insulin if it spikes the insulin so high. Wont it encourage fat storage??

    Yes it does encourage fat storage but if used correctly you will boost the recovery process significantly without storing fat.

    Insulin itself actually has nothing to do with the buidling of muscle cells. What insulin does is shuttle nutrients into cells which leads to greater recovery, and greater recovery leads to muscle mass, strength and weight gains.

    There is a lot of insulin info here so use the search function.

    Since is a short acting kind of chemical, would the results be site specific?
