You have a current picture? You must look impressive with those stats. I would suggest you do a search on here. This question has been answered many times. And most VETs do not want to answer first time slin users because of dangers associated with it.

I like preworkout slin, but start LOW. Don't know what kind you're using, but I got hypo symptoms using 3iu humalog my first time. So just have plenty of carbs available to you in the window of action (depending on which slin you're using).

If I were to do it again, I'd start with post workout insulin until I got a good hold of how many carbs I needed per iu, as well as it's spike times. Start with 10g (a teaspoon is 4.3g) of sugar per iu of insulin you use. If you let everyone know what kind of slin you're using, people might be able to give you a better idea of when/how to take your carbs...

Check out Mike Arnold's slin protocol. It's what I have used and it works flawlessly. Humilin-R, 15iu pre-workout, with a pre/intra/post workout shake, all the details are explained in the log just do a search

I prefer R preworkout. Start out really low to assess tolerance. Like 3-5 ius

old dude too

I started R 30 min pre-workout. I had protein/carb mixture ready to drink 30 minutes after application. I started with 3 iu's all scared about what might happen , checked my blood sugar pre and post and never fell below 100. I gradually up it to 8 iu's, again blood sugar stayed above 70 at the end of workout then climbed back to 90's shortly after. I never had a problem or felt like low sugar. I did have some crazy ass pumps during my training. Stats: 6'4" 290 15% body fat.

They are insane amount of protocols on here that have been covered a lot. Search around a little and see which one interests you the most and then we can go from their.
