I know some people here have experimented with a GH blast that is reputed to have produced good results. Just wondering if anyone had tried the same thing with IGF? High doses for a short period of time? Thanks.
Thanks Mike. That is what the common knowledge out right now says. Most people also say that in order to notice gains off of GH you have to use it for an extended period of time. I'm looking for something above and beyond "normal" usage. Also, most people say to use 1 month on/ 1 off. Has anyone run it for 8 weeks or more consecutively? Did the gains stop, or just the sides? Thanks again.
Everyone is different but after your body notices the large amount of supplemental IGF it starts to produce binding proteins (SHBG I think) and it will deactivate the IGF..So that is why so many don't run it for longer than 30 days..
But like I said everyone is different and our bodies don't act exactly the same..so maybe you could run IGF longer before your body starts to produce the binding protein...
I don't know about the 30 day things though..I think that a few guys came up with that and then the rest just followed...I am running it right now and I am going to run it for as long as it works...I have been on for 4 days and am only running 30mcg a day.(most say run 60mcg) but I have always responded well to AAS so I am not going to run 60 until I see it necessary...
The difference I have noticed is extreme pumps, almost painful..Increased hunger, increased appetite and I have been very tired lately..So I am assuming it is the IGF...
I really doubt it is SHBG that take up the IGF1 from circulation.
Receptors are chemical specific. The IGF1 molecule is in no way related or similar to the test/AS molecule that fits into the SHBG
receptor/binder. There may be a homeostatic process or binder that removes excess IGF1 from the blood after excess is sensed by the pituatary, but its not SBGH.
I read the article a while back and got it twisted..Insulin will decrease the amount of SHBG therefor INSULIN LIKE GROWTH FACTOR would actually decrease the amount of free SHBG..
But in any circumstance there is a binding effect of something..
there are binding proteins to igf-1 that exhibit and manifest themselves most strongly by the 4 week mark, insulin itself can lower shbg i remember, but it is not shbg that messes with igf
