I took 40mcg 4-5 times a week for the first 2 months, and this last month I've bumped it up to 100mcg. I really think there is something to continued use of this stuff as I've put on about 5 lbs over the last month and a half and my pumps are getting pretty good. I've also been taking NO xplode spurradically so the creatine may be having an effect too. May be something to the site growth too.
hey krishna, what i'd read was take it for 4wks,off 4wks, on 4wks,etc. and just use 50-60 mcg per inj.
just saying the dosage andthe frequency may have somethin to do with itkrishna said:

i think the site injection is overhyped, i think the igf recepters on the broken down muscles are upregulated PWO so wherever you inject it gets there anyway..ive never used it myself thats my educated guess from all my researchole farte' said:
have you been running it ED?
i thought gains normally stalled after about 5-6 weeks of ED injects.
are you ON right now?

I went a couple weeks in the middle with every 3rd day. I've been getting good another surge of good pumps the last couple weeks. You may be right about the site growth, but the muscles I've been working the most are have gotten bigger faster than they normally would. Those are the ones I inject into the most too!
cool. i'm doing the pwo site inj too. been 3wks haven't noticed anything yet. what brand krishna?krishna said:

Hey Krishna, I'm not sure on the joint pain. I did the igf for about 7-8 weeks along with the hgh and I thought I would throw in some primo tabs I had around for 30 days to see if they added anymore ( I picked up about 5 lbs on the igf/gh) Well, I've been offthe igf for almost a month now and on the primo and I"m friggin dying, every joint in my body is just killing me and it has gotten progressivly worse in the past 2-3 weeks. In fact I was thinking of starting up the igf again in hopes of feeling better! Anyhow, I think my problems are from the primo part way shutting me down and likely loosing too much estrogen along with the gh. I ran the igf at 60 for the first bottle 5 days a week and at 100 for the second bottle, good stuff. You runnin that SS?
Im having the same pains, at first i thought it was over training but you guys have hit the nail on the head, its ever since i have been taking the IGF. 4 weeks now and it has got worse.
I have been doing loads of research on lots of websites but the only recuring theme seems to be water retention in the joints that can cause the pain but it doesn't go into mass details

Krish.... IGF is actually supposed to help with joint support and repair, not cause pain... I've used it once so far during my last PCT and it definitely eased my chronic knee/shoulder pain... ran it at 80mcg ED for 4 weeks.
