Well, it may not be an experiment for some but for me it will be. I'm using insulin right now post workout at 8 IUs. I just posted asking whether or not anyone has tried slin preworkout, but not much response, so I decided to give it a try and see how it worked for me. Starting today I shot 2IUs intramuscularly in the delt before my workout and dropped my postworkout shot by 2 (6IU). 15 minutes before taking the pre-shot I had a shake of N-large 2 with 5grms glutamine and 5grms creatine. By this time my blood sugar should be starting to raise from the sugars and high glycemic carbs. I took the shot IM and went to go workout. After my workout I took 6IUs and had another shake with the glutamine and creatine. During the workout I sipped on a little gatorade to prevent any hypo. Today was leg day, I didnt really notice anything in particular but I will continue to try this for a few more days and see how it works. I will let everyone know how it goes, what do you guys think? | ||

sounds good man. i've thought about using insulin myself, but i wanna get a couple cycles under my belt first. what type of insulin are you using? the dose seems a little low too. i know you wanna play it safe but a total of 8 IUs isn't much. i'd just increase it really slowly to be on the safe side. | ||

no, don't go higher as 7-8 iu's is fine. i personally would not do both creatine and glutamine as in my opinion they fight for the same receptors. i did 7 iu's with creatine and gained a shit load of weight. when i took in to many carbs i would start feeling weird and new where to stop. over dose on insulin is fatal so i would not push to far. also if your on to long you could become diabetic. best with growth but i did it with sus and gained a shit load of weight (fat). this was 5 years ago and i woulkd never do it again. don't fall for the increased dose syndrom. steriods don't kill insulin does. | ||

Hey Flexed1, I'm sorry, maybe I was a little unclear. I mean that I am experimenting taking the insulin preworkout. I have done the slin postworkout a few times. I was experimenting to see if taking a small dose before a workout IM would give me better pumps and a better workout. | ||

oh, missed it I always took after my workout. makes sense for pumps and all but my point about watching the does still stands. this is one thing not to be abused though with gh its great when done in moderation for anabolic growth. as far as the statment made about my glutamine/creatine statement i realize it's a debated subject thus I stated it was my opinion. but to back upo my thoughts on it creatine fill the cells as does glutamine so the question becomes how much expansion can the cells take before you waste a product and glutamine is not that cheap so I will continue to take it seperate from creatine. there is no arugument from me i will do as i think is best for my body and leave it at that. |
