Yet another slin question but...

[Stayinfit]

this is the best plce to ask any question regarding usage on any sports supplement.

Ok, got a guy doin a physique show in May, he's drug free. He wants to know if slin would be ok by itself? Would he still reap a little of the benefits...just a little. He wants to stay drug free for another year. I told him I didn't see why it wouldn't work a little seeing the whole concept of using slin doesn't have much to do with aas but more of nutrition getting into the muscles. Any input would be great guys...thanks!

That depends on his goals

If he wants to add some size then yes he can benifit from it

If he wants to drop body fat then I think insulin would be one of the last things to look at.

The both of you should do some research on peptides if he wants to stay "natural"

But personaly I think the mind set of saying some things are ok and some are not is like saying you dident cheat on your wife because it was only a blow job.

Sure it would make him grow.. but I feel insulin use is a more advanced practice in bodybuilding.

You can really mess up your test cycle and be okay (still alive) but there is really not much room for play with insulin.

Show in may? That means he is already cutting. I personally would NOT use insulin while cutting.

I have heard of people dieting down into a show using insulin , not sure exactly how they did it though.

Again in this short of period I think he should just stay his course and plan better next time , very very few times does sombody with out A LOT of experience make drastic last minute changes and it work out well , its typically a train wreck

Yeah, I have read posts about ifbb pros doing it. Different story there.

common man people make it so scary , you have to be a fuckin idiot to not know your going to die from that feeling. I rather tell someone there 3rd of 4th time running slin instead of sipping your gatorade, whey shake within 5-10 minutes (if running log for ex.) to wait until you get the feeling that your going to need to sip it so they understand the feeling. Most important thing for someone new is to know that each small tick is 2 units of insulin.

To the OP if your friend is in Physique its not needed it will actually hurt him stay away

Uhhhhh. Each small "tick" on an insulin syringe is one international unit.

Okay fair enough. It is obvious when you waited too long, and sure it would take an idiot to not learn that lesson really really quick, but I still wouldn't recommend it to a beginner that has never used AAS

Dude I hope that was a mistake and even if it was that is what is dangerous, not sure what type of slin pins U use but on mine 1 tick is 1 IU

 

[Gunsmith]

The biggest mistake guys make when using insulin is trying to build their diet arou d the insulin , unless you are running a keto diet this is a mistake , you adjust your skin dose to suit or carbs.

For Instance lets say you eat 50g carbs per meal and you eat every 2 hrs.
You want to use Humulin-R which has an active life of 6 hrs (generaly less)

So you would eat 3 meal in the 6 hr window that the slin is active , thats 150g carbs , using the standard start point of 1 iu of insulin per 10g oc carbs you could use 15 iu humulin-R , I'd start at 12 and work up though.

on 29guage 100unit slin pins, each tick is 2 units (each 1 unit is 10 units)

no mistake over here

if his contest is in may, why risk introducing something new now? I"m not just talking about slin, but anything "new" at this point, and he doesnt know how it would affect him, could have a negative effect on his goal. i would wait until after the contest and try it out.

as far as knowing how it feels... oh damn, i took some slin, went to an all you can eat buffet with my brother, it took longer than i thought, because by the time we got to our table, i was sweating like a pig and shaking like a drug addict needing a hit lmao. I hate that feeling, after that I made sure not to make any other stupid moves like that again, shit was scary. lol

Staying drug free but using slin... kinda oxy moron isn't it?
