Insulin and Myostatin

[stevesmi]

Of course this could be prevalent among diabetics that do not watch all their levels like they are supposed too. But how common is this among bodybuilders that use insulin? Are all top tier pros insulin dependent by the end of their careers?

Joe D who was a member on here a few years back was in his mid to late 30's and huge.. 5 5 240ish. he used insulin + was huge for his height. and he became a diabetic.

would he have become a diabetic if he was 5 5 160 and didn't touch insulin? highly highly highly unlikely.

its not just the insulin use, its also the mass on the body that insulin helps you achieve since it is a nutrition partitioner. mass is mass.. whether it is fat or muscle looks different in the mirror but its still mass. lets say you took insulin, even short acting, twice a day.. you would be nutrition partitioning for many hours and whatever you ate would be getting stored like a magnet.. think about that. AAS does the same thing but nothing like that.

have a good body shape for a short period then you suffered the side effect, its better natural vitamins than that insulin....

I've been thinking about this too. If gains stall out at around the 8 week mark then doing one bodypart a week (which is what I do) really means only 8 workouts per bodypart per cycle before you stop growing. That really sucks.

I have to ask myself though, if adding more/better/more androgenic drugs keeps things moving then is it really myostatin thats inhibiting further gains, or homeostasis?

Thank you for understanding my true question lol that's what I really wanted to say.

Well, I think I am going to give it a shot. Will add Slin and Anadrol to try to maximize muscle gains.

Us it sparingly and not often and you'll be fine. Don't use it every meal for 2 months and hell, I wouldn't even use it before every meal for a month. I've been using slin about 5-10 iu post or pre workout for a few months but ONLY one or two pins every 2-3 days.

That obviously isn't all the instruction you need but you get my point I hope.

I am going to go with the normal 4 weeks on/off protocol. Will start with 2iu post workout, and bump up 2iu every couple of days until I get to 10.
