Should you take glucophage before or after a cycle?? So far I'm taking it 30 mins before my weightlifting, but I don't see any results. I read somewhere that its supposed to put you into ketosis........so then shouldn't it burn fat alot faster during the workout? Anyone taking it differently????    | ||

I'm taking it to help me enter ketosis as part of a CKD. To get into ketosis, you must empty your liver of glycogen, so the effects of glucophage in helping to enter ketosis will not be immediate. Also, the primary fuel burned in resistance training will be muscle glycogen until the point where it has been used up. If you have not cut your carbs to near nil, chances are you are not achieving ketosis.  |
