How To Use Metformin for Bodybuilding

[warlock]

Thanks NEMSZ that was helpful. I am taking 750mg of Test E and 400mg of MAST E with 50mg Proviron a day. I am also taking 2,000mg of Metformin a day because I am pre-diabetic. I was doing some research and wasn't sure how much the use of metfomin ngatively impacted muscle gains.

I was considering add IGF-1LR3 to compensate for any loss from the metformin.

How do you split the 2000mg metformin? 1000mg in the AM and 1000mg PM? What was your fasted glucose before metformin vs. now?

Yes, I do 1000mg in the Am and 1000mg in the PM. My fasting glucose before metformin was 150 and now it is consistently in the low to mid 90s.

That's a significance difference. How long did it take to see that difference?

About 2 months. Made a change in diet and exercise along with using Metiformin. I am taking gear as well, test mast, and Proviron.
