Advice on 1st Time Insulin Use?

[Farrar]

I am considering using Humulin-R slin post workout only. I have read quite a bit about it usage and still have a couple of questions.

First, I am 41 years old, 5’10” tall and weigh 210 pounds at 18.5% BF. This is down a bit from 16 months ago when I was 232 pounds and 32% BF. I am on my 5th cycle, which is 500mg Test Enanthate, 450mg Deca, and 400mg of Equipose weekly.

I plan to consume a shake with 92 carbs {dextrose} and 50 grams of whey immediately post. I plan to start with 5iu and up the dosage 1iu per post workout day until I reach 10iu. My current diet is 12 calories per pound on a 50/30/20 split of protein, carbs, and fat. In order to increase my post workout drink to accommodate the additional carbs, I will need to go to a 45/40/15 split or have zero carbs for the meal scheduled 2 hours after the injection.

First question: I have read that slin use CAN make one fatter if the diet is slack. My meal two hours after injection would consist of about 8 oz. Of chicken/tuna, whole kernel corn, and wheat bread. The consensus is that this meal needs to be high protein and moderate carbs. What would be considered moderate carbs?

Second question: With my BF at 18.5%, should I get this on down to 10-12% before considering slin? I am currently weight training 4 days per week and also do cardio 4 days per week on an elliptical runner for 35 minutes at a 10-minute mile pace keeping my heart rate in the 150 range. I had hoped that the cardio and a clean diet would deter any increase in body fat.

Thanks,

Farrar

well if you take care of your 1iu to 10grams sugar post slin shot (and the 50 grams whey of course).....then get in some type of carbs in a decent amount 2 hrs later (with protein again of course)....you should be alright. if you feel light headed or shaky, have a coke around or something. i feel you will get a hypo feeling with R if you use so little carbs in that second feeding. maybe go with humalog if your hitting it heavy with the carbs post shot only. R lingers too long. i am hungry as a bear like 5 hours or more post shot. as for the BF issue, your gonna put on BF with slin...i use a similar AAS cycle as you are doing (400mg EQ/500mg enanthate/either fina 100mg or winny 35mg oral) with GH added in that i think helps with fat gain. you can cut the fat now or later, really doesn't matter right? but i feel i've kept the fat gain at bay for the most part.
