Metformin

[barcaboyz11]

Anyone use metformin on a lean bulk alongside hormones to avoid fat gain ?? If so could anyone recommend me the optimal dosage for it?

metformin really does not do what you think it does. it is not going to prevent you from gaining fat. it will help lower blood sugar only.

i see no reason for anyone in fitness to use it. if you want to prevent insulin spikes and fat storage you need to do 2 things

1. grab n2slin, it helps block fat
2. implement fasting into your lifestyle. (see Ebook as to how)

if that was true then type 2 diabetes who take it daily for years would be walking around shredded right?

here is what those doctors don't tell you though.. it actually causes a drop in IGF-1. that is a problem. it will affect muscle and strength gain, and also drop libido over time

i would compare its use to overdosing on an AI when on a cycle or TRT. it is actually preventing results more than helping you

if it works for you then go for it but i am skeptical of the claims i see

I like metformin. The only issue with it is that it can mess up your gut microbiome so don't take it every day.

If I have my clients use metformin, I only have them use it a few days per week on their high carb days

Nahhh that igf thing is crap, same as what they said about nolva and that's been used for decades without issues ,, think of Dorian Yates and all them back in the day that used nolva ,, they didn't have issues with growing,,, it did keep me leaner though ,, and I think it once used for people suffering ED ? Either way I have not seen any issues with any of those departments and I've been using it daily for over half a year

I'll stand by my reply. There are a bunch of issues with claiming something works when 90% of the users almost never do it in isolation. As Steve stated quite clearly all those using it for medical reasons would be lean if it worked as is claimed.

But they and guys like John ALL do other things. Let's deal with the Type II's first. I've stated that the majority of Type II's have sh*t eating habits and poor lifestyle choices. The moment these are are changed to better ones they need less meds.

Now John Meadows. Has there ever been as photo of John looking out of shape?? In terms of aesthetics he's always been f**ked but in terms of being lean and vascular I can't recall seeing John look smooth. I doubt very much that's down to constant use of a specific single drug.

And that's without getting into diet AND metaformin. Or even if it's used properly by most PED users. Finally, there are probably more Insulin etc users than there have ever been in our (broadly speaking) sport. So we see different looking pros (the freaks) but we're not seeing more freaky looking Joes down the gyms

i have never felt the need to personally use it so i cannot comment on personal experience with it.. i have seen mixed responses with some that love it and some that are completely against it.. its not something i generally recommend but everyone is different on how they respond

Yeh I agree with the above comment to an extent ,, all I know is my digestion has been the best it's ever been since taking it , and good digestion usually means better partitioning ...not saying it's game changer but def has a place
