Insulin Question

[TxRugby_8]

Do you have to take it on non-training days??? Just wondering cuz I don't want to promote any fat gains. I was think of doing 6I.U. starting towards the end of my cycle with some anavar and then jumping into creatine right away. thanks for the help.
!!Cheers!!

You don't have to but it would be best to since recover will be aided best that way. If you're worried about fat you could do it after workouts only without losing much effect.

first of all insulin isnt measured in iu's. it is measured in units, u definatly need to know that before u kill yourself. u dont have to take it on non training days. from my experience with insulin it isnt as easy as everyone says to gain fat. i really dont think 6 units a day is enough. that is what u should start out with and go up by one unit a day until u get to 10 units in the morning and 10 post workout. as long as u take 10 grams of sugar per unit with it u will be okay. dont eat fat for a couple hours after taking the insulin and u will be fine. good luck bro.

wait...it is not measured in IU's, just units...why has nobody mentioned this before?

 

[jc21]

growth is measured in iu's and u usually have to make it yourself. say u have a 20iu bottle, and an insulin syringe that is 100units(1 cc). u put 2 cc's in the bottle, now the insulin syringe also has markings of 10, 20 , 30 ...100. now that makes the 10 unit mark 1 iu. it is easier for insulin, each mark equals one unit, so that is self explainitory. hope i helped clear some things up.

Thanks bro, I am starting a slin cycle soon at 10 units post workout with glutamine and creatine as a bridge and withthe final six weeks of my cycle. That coulda been a bad situation. I plan on taking 100grms of carbs from gatoraid asap the shot then 30mins later 40grms carbs 40grms protein in this shake called aftermax...does this sound good to you...plus I need to take my slin to the gym, (live 30mins from gym) how long can you leave slin out of the fridge?

Thanks bro for the help...

looks good to me bro...not really sure about the duration that slin can be kept in the open, but one idea is to find a insulated little cup holder or something and put the bottle in there with some ice. i always put the ice in a zip lock bag and put the bottle in another lip lock bag so the bottle doesnt get wet, i am a little bitch like that cause i hate when the labels get messed up. just remember if the slin turns yellow it is definatly no good. but it isnt a real big deal for me cause it is so easy and cheap to get where i live.

What kind of slin are you going to use?
I'll do the same thing as you as bridge.
I'll do Humalog.
I think I'll build up the doese to 1Uix10kg of bodyweight,half in the morning and half after workout.Humalog starts to work 30min after the injection (underskin).
So I think I'll shoot it 40 min before end my workout.
Your diet is pritty fine IMO.
In the non-workout days I'll take or all in the morning or half the dosage in The morning.

I dunno for US but here you can buy a sort of"pen":you put in this pen a"cartridge"w/slin.At the edge of this "pen"there is a little wheel that selects the IU wanted.
You can keep this pen out of fridge for some hours w/o problems.

ya, I have seen those pens, but I want to get the pen for humlin R I cannot find any, do not know why??

I want to know how diabetics carry their gear around when they go places, like shopping in a mall or etc?@?

 

[Italianboy]

I think they carry it w/pens.
