Insulin against rules?? :/

[stevesmi]

I am just trying to get as much knowledge as possible. I figured that it could be utilized in the same way in the morning as post workout because your body is in a similar state. I am aware that I don't know exactly how to use slin.. so therefore I am trying to become as educated as possible.

when you wake up your blood sugar is low. thats why historically people usually have sugary type things in the morning like pancakes, danishes, orange juice, etc. so its just not a good idea to a newb to slin to take it upon waking. be conservative with it.

i know its off subject of this thread but i thought it would be a good addition saying this... today though we eat sugars as a treat (most in the western diet) which is why the country is so obese. most people who eat sugar have way too much that they don't need.

reason being you just went 8 hours or so fasting. so its important to get in a solid breakfast (i'm talking the general population not those who are doing IF or whatever) many people do not eat breakfast and they wonder why their metabolism is so slow. i tell them have a veggie shake for breakfast and that is the best thing to speed up metabolism for someone who wants to lose weight (especially middle aged women)

I would guess that it would be better in any case to save the slin since in the morning you need it less than you would in the other parts of the day. Taking advantage of breakfast (minus slin) could be almost as effective as using small amounts of slin. Obviously I'm speculating since I have no experience.

good question, i would be curious to hear leds take on this.

i have heard both sides of the arguement.. some say insulin spikes at X time, others say it does not.

you can google 'insulin spikes' and get a whole lot of articles, studies, and opinions.

I have been intrigued by insulin for awhile.. never really planned on using it at all, but I have done a lot of things that I've never planned to do. I bet insulin would be a great addition to PCT, to help keep/make gains.

The concept of using it in PCT is interesting to me as well.

Just got my self a bottle of humulin R. This will be my first time.

Here my game plan:

Intra workout: 50 g glycofuse, 20g aminos, 5g creatine. (PWO my BG levels are usually 120 - 130)
Immediately after I lift: 3 iu of humulin R

1 hr later : 8oz chicken or turkey, 2 cups white rice, (check BG levels)

Powerade on hand just in case

2 hr later : 6 oz chicken with 1 cups oats

(Check BG levels hopefully out of my system by now)

I'll work my way up to 5iu and I'm waiting to try it on my day off from work so I can see how I respond.

good luck with this, i hope you don't die.

I don't know your exact stats, but by the look you avatar i'd say we are pretty similar in size. I'm very curios to see what effects it can have, especially on a first run. You should log it, or at least keep me updated lol

I'd consider chucking the humulin and going with novolog or humalog. The activity of them is much shorter. About 2:15. It's easier to judge the spike. Humulin and some of the others have a flatter profile.
