Bro, that's a really long article.
I have no idea what your point is regarding my post, but all I can say is show my some real life proof of gains. That article kinda reminds me of those ads you see in the back of the mags that have all this scientific data as to why the new xyz product is the next greatest product, but never works in real life.
We can break this down scientifically all you want, but real world results with IGF is something that I have never seen. By all means if anyone out there had any pics to prove me wrong I would love to see it. Until then I would suggest people stick to what they know works for sure and stop injecting themselves with all this pseudo scientific garbage.
My point is ... saying that igf-1 is worthless is one thing ... saying that it will make your cranium enlarge, and kill you is another thing.
Also, there are just too many things to concider, when a pro is talking about research drugs ... what other compounds are being used, etc etc ... Are his IFG-1R supersatured from the high doses of hgh, and insulin ... Down regulation ... etc etc ... IGF-1R desensitisation ...
Here is what I said in my previous post ... "If igf-1 is worthless ... there is just no way anyone can claim hgh is just so great. IMO, it is very hard to compare a 4 week cycle on an ED injection protocol or an EOD protocol for a few weeks longer depending on how much is injected (down regulation) to a months long hgh cycle, and anyone expecting major gains from igf-1 is fooling himself, that I can agree with ... results from igf-1 generally are something like 5-10 lbs of LBM/cycle, not impressive, but still valuable, for some only maybe 2 pounds, with increased vascularity, density, and fatloss.
Fair enough Mechano growth factor may have to be entered in the equation, but throwing igf-1 out the window ... is, IMO, a little extreme."
Also, as far as, real life results ... Well I've talked with quite a few ppl, who are totally satisfied with this compound ... but then again, if you only concider a cycle, which will put 20 lbs of muscle on you in 3 months valuable ... well in that case, I can, and have to agree igf-1 just isn't that great.
