DWBO

So what effects should I see from 40 IUs daily?

I've only used Humalog pens and 12iu pre and 12iu post workout was strong asf. I was always prepared for the worst and even at that I went hypo a couple of times and man what a bitch that was. 1st time I was in the kitchen and went to shaking & twitching like my ass was on fire, legs became wet noodles and I barely made it to the fridge in time to chug OJ. Scared the shit outta me and I'm very methodical my use and habits. It was definitely an eye opener in regard to the risks.

If you're seasoned, have done extensive research, do a heavy carb load with it, and are looking to break a plateau then slin can get ya there. However it's not like AAS. That shit can render you comatose. It is not a mutha fuqn game. I spent yrs preparing, had several close friends helping and monitoring me, and I still had a couple close calls.

It certainly has its place in BB'n but it's not for the average Source board member who runs AAS.

Found this digging around, discuss

Short-acting insulin use for a bodybuilder is the other choice. No intermediate (medium acting) here unless you are a diabetic having trouble controlling your blood sugar levels in between meals. Otherwise, you are going to miss the peak hour for your meal of insulin levels and then go hypo when you have nothing in your body and possibly catabolic due to glucagon that I already talked about above. Short-acting insulin is not too tricky, but you must also factor in your gastric emptying rate. Some are slower and some are faster than others.


As an example, even a doctor (a good one) will advise your needs might be 15 minutes before a meal or 15 minutes after a meal. This is something you have to figure out on your own by feel and/or BG readings. If you notice you start feeling hypo during a meal, your gastric empty rate might be slow, and/or you took your insulin too early before the meal. Or if you notice you are going hypo long after a meal. You took your insulin too late for your meal and or your gastric emptying rate is fast. I personally find on average most do best with 10-15mins before a meal with items like Humalog (a short-acting insulin)
