First thing I'll give props to Monster for being one of the most informed, and willing to share bros about slin so read this article

Next, and something most people are gonna tell you to do is click the search button, and search for insulin slin stuff like that, cause you would have found monsters article.
But since you haven't done any of that lemme help you out a little bit from what I've learned from the boards and other soruces.
#1. DON"T MESS WITH SLIN TILL YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
#2. Once you start ALWAYS (and I do mean always) have some juice or other quick sugar source handy while its in your system (how long its there depends on the type you take)
With that out of the way it depends on your metabolism and fear of getting fat actually. If your kinda pudgy to begin with (like me) you HAVE to eat clean (ie NO fat) while the slin is in you, so a short acting one is best.
Humalog is the shortest lived peaks in an hour, kicks in in about 15 min and is gone in about 2.5 hours. Unfortunately it takes a script to get in most places.
Humilin R is next best (best over all for me) no script to get, starts in about 30 min peaks at about 2/2.5 hours and is gone in 4. Most guys tell you to take the humalog if you can but I like the humilin are for the no script, and cause it doesn't hurt me to to eat clean for 4 hours, and so more nutrients get shuttled to the muscles. And humilin R is the cheapest.
All other kinds of slin I wouldn't mess with they last to long, and hence not good for those of us with normal levels in our body to begin with
There are lots of technicalities about when to take, how much, how to eat around it that I'm not gonna retype, but SEARCH for insulin, slin, humilin r, humulin r (the correct spelling) humalog, and read monsters article then search on google and then search some more. Be prepared before you get into slin.
