I've searched the archives and feel pretty confident in using insulin but I wanted to make sure. I'm going to take 5 iu or humulin r tonight post workout. 15 minutes later I'm going to have a shake that consists of: 1 Cell Tech 75g dextrose Should I mix the shake with grape juice to add extra carbs or just use water? Here are my stats: I'm still kind of nervous so I have enought candy here for next halloween. I know that after I inject the insulin I cant go to bed for 4 hours correct? Thanks brothers. DC     | ||

you could use the grape juice if you want, but you want complex carbs, not just sugars. I suggest getting a carbo force or something with some complex carbs and take a dose of creatine powder with it. the cell tech just has too much sugar in it. and definitely get that protein and you should be fine. I would suggest getting some humalog if you can get it, and try working your way up to 10-15 iu's post workout, but take it slow and see how your body responds | ||

No, you want simple sugars after the shot. Diabetics take glucose tabs. You want to eat clean for the next 3 hrs. Your next spike is at the 2 hr mark. you want to have a can of coke around for that. You shake with cell tech is awsome. I took 5grams of carbs per iu and was fine. To give you an idea of how safe insulin is if you concentrate on eating and drinking the right things, I took 100ius each day for 3 days. On the last day I felt hypoglycemic, sweaty, light headed, etc. I drank a can of coke and some tuna fish and I was fine. *** I dont recomend ever taking that much, It was a accident************************ But with proper research and dedication, insulin can be a regular part of training. ------------------ "Catch a man a fish, he eats for a day.

Well, its about over. I took my insulin, had my carb/protein shake, another one two hours later, now its time for bed. I'll have a little carbo force just to be safe though. Thanks for the help. DC | ||
