I have known a few guys that inject it right before work out, sometimes they even bring it to the gym , what are the benefits of pinning right before work out? I would like to try it out for mass gains and my other question is if it causes water retention like some AAS, thank you.
Injecting insulin immediately prior to training. Hmm...
insulin is used pre workout sometimes.. but most guys do it post workout
it will help shuttle in nutrients into the muscle so you can utilize food much better. that is why pro's use it
pre workout usage is supposedly suppose to give you great pumps but a newbie should use it post workout only IMO for safety reasons until they figure out how their body reacts
all in all insulin usage is not necessary unless you are at an elite pro level. a normal joe can simply go to n2bm and buy n2slin which will not only nutrition partition but it will also block fat if you take it before a meal

Milo's sarcev did a protocol of 20iu pre, 20iu post workout back in the day. Personally gone as high as 20iu preworkout and had Good results. Also to note, it's a prime time to take creatine, glutamine, EAA's and some protein aswell And yes you'll be bloated as fuck from the insulin especially your intestines but as long as you don't overly abuse it and do short runs, it'll be temporary.

I see. It has long been my understanding that everyone who uses insulin needs to eat immediately upon injecting in order to avoid potentially life-threatening consequences. But apparently that is not the case. Apparently, it is specific to the individual user. Is that correct, Steve?
you should always keep sugar on hand. people usually down a dex shake after and then have a well balanced meal an hour into it to get peak benefits
I personally have used insulin and didn't eat or drink anything but water for 2-3 hours and NOTHING happened to me. and this was insulin from the pharmacy. but that doesn't mean if i tried that again i wouldn't start getting hypo issues. so yes it is individual but also circumstances vary
some guys blow up 10-20 pounds on insulin and some guys will get nothing out of it
personally it wasn't worth the headache but i would encourage anyone to get their ducks in a row and try insulin once.. go to walmart and buy the short acting insulin.. it is like $30.. use 5IU's post workout and follow a conservative protocol and see how you like it.
i am very happy using n2slin before meals.. especially carb heavy ones because it will do what insulin does + block fat.

If you are not competing and not aspiring to become the next Mr. Olympia, insulin is definitely not worth all the pain in the ass and trouble it can cause. Don't regard insulin as the panacea to gain mass. If you are stuck in regards to weight, you should reconsider your training, diet and rest times.
I have used insulin pre-workout and I understand the science behind it but it actually ruined my workout. I was so paranoid about going hypo during the workout that I couldn't focus on my workout at all.
Me personally, I would just use insulin post workout with a whey isolate and fast acting carb shake. You will still get all the same muscle building and hypertrophy benefits but there is no risk of going hypo in the middle of your workout.

Unless you are a top level competitor I really don't think insulin is worth using. Just too risky for a regular gym rat to use. You should be able to make gains with a good diet, training program, and maybe some AAS. I would leave insulin to the pros.

guys are we talking to take humalog alone?
Unless you are taking the insulin with HGH, you are just going to get fat off it.

Exactly that!
I wouldn't use insulin alone personally. i mean you are welcome to try it and see how you do.
the pro's use it with HGH for sure. and even normal joes will stack in gear with it
He didn't mention using anything else so I assume insulin solo.
I still do not support using it.

Bro you never I mean never want to inject insulin before a workout! !!!! I have type one diabetes that can be dangerous. When you inject insulin and get very active your body gets super sensitive to insulin when training hard which drops your blood sugar before and after a work out. You shouldn't be fucking with this stuff the gains are not even great or noticeable from it . But if your the type to not listen then all I can say is take it after you work out and make sure you have a ton of carbs to carry you though the have life's of the drug
Prequel just gives you good pumps which I always have because it's in me 24/7

I personally take insulin preworkout and have a protocol I follow and never get hypoglycaemic.
The results are amazing, let alone the pumps etc.
Anyone who says they get fat or get no results need to look at their diet or the product they are using is quality.
It's more anabolic than juice...
