IGF-2 Review

[Rodja]

ive tryed a number of test boosters with no results to speak of. This isnt a steroid, its natural as is a test booster. why would i be too young?

I am very aware that this a NH supplement, but I say that you're too young because you are 18, which is around the prime age for natty test.

Great review Rodja, I have a question. #8 you mentioned hypo. What is hypo?

I'm currently running a Bolic/RPM/IGF2 stack and I'm horrible with the length of my workouts. They almost always go longer than 60 minutes but I drink a lot of aminos to help offset the problem.

Hypoglycemia aka blood-glucose crash. This happened during my cardio sessions which I did after lifting.

Great thanks, I don't get a pump anymore working out I think its the beta alanine.

My body doesn't get tired but after intense workouts my brain gets tired if that makes sense, I can't concentrate as much so I know its time to go. Lately when this happens I can't jog home, I want to but my brain says no.

BA does not effect your ability to get a pump. I take between 6-8g of BA and do not have any problem. Try decreasing the weight that you're currently using and focus on expanding and contracting the muscle.

also depending on the muscle group, maybe trying a burnout exercise at the end. a light weight triceps pushdowns, hammer curl, bb row, etc done for 30+ reps. that tends to bring up a pump if one is going to happen at all

[jmh80]

Drive/RPM/IGF-2/NeoVar will be a sick stack.

Sorry - but the price is just prohibitive on that one.

Would probably be good though - but regular people could run either Drive or IGF-2. Not both.

Then I'm totally confused because that was the only real significant change I made to my supplements. I've been switching up my routines the past couple of weeks and moved into a more bodybuilding workout but still no pump. Its been gone for over 2 months now. Its not a big deal except I can't tell when my legs have had it in squats so I think it actually helps me go to all out failure.

I ran 2 bottles of IGF-2 over the past 6 weeks, first at a dose of 10 caps/day and then 12 caps/day. My goals for this was to lean out some while gaining strength and increasing my cardio. My diet was not immaculate during this run, which somewhat skewed the results, but I still had a great run.

First the quantitative:
Flat BP-185x3 --------->190x3
BB Rows-245x12------->285x10
Dips-BW+60x5--------->BW+80x4
Military Press-135x5--->145x5
DB Rows (DC style)110x10+5----->120x10+7+5
Close-Grip BP-155x5----->205x3
Ancillary lifts (e.g. curls, laterals, pressdowns, etc) also increased in both weight and reps

Weight-175----->173
BF%-?? If I had to guess, I went from 11% to 10%

Now for the subjective:
1. Great pumps, fullness, and vascularity
2. Increased mind-muscle connection
3. Increased recovery
4. Cardio, both aerobic and anaerboic, increased
5. No increase in results from 10 caps-12 caps; sleep was actually worse (Rhodiola is the likely culprit her)
6. Acne increased start around day 8 or so
7. Relaxed feeling 30-40 minutes after dosing
8. Some slight hypo issues during long training session
9. Good mood elevation


I would highly recommend this product for either bulking or cutting, but I think that it would be best used during a solid recomp. All of lifts and cardio improved despite not having the best diet. I definitely think that 10 caps/day was my sweet spot and, in retrospect, I wish I would have stayed there for the duration of the cycle. Considering that there is no PCT for this and all of the positive effects, the price really is about right. Stacking this with some Drive would make a sick stack and is on my short list to try in the near future.

Again, congrats AN for making an awesome product that helped out with strength, cardio, and body comp.

Does anyone know what type of results I would get by stacking IGF-2 with Test2 ?

Are you referring to John Scott's Nitro Test2? It would be fine to stack with IGF-2. As far as what type of results you "would get by stacking IGF-2 with Test2" - look at each product's effects and "claims" to get some idea of what you could expect (note that not all effects may be seen or felt by everyone); as far as specifics, no one can tell you that, since many other factors (i.e. individual factors, nutrition, training, other supplements, etc.) come into play.

Yeah I'm not sure what Test2 is. either I'm thinking Testforce 2 by Patrick Arnold/E-Pharm? If so, it's quite fine and complimentary.

[Slamu]

Its John Scott's Nitro Test2. I currently taking Epistane, would IGF-2 do well as a stand alone PCT?

No, IGF-2 should not be used as a standalone PCT. Use it as a PART of your PCT, but it should NOT be the only product used, since it does NOT cover ALL of your PCT needs. You should NOT have started a hormonal cycle if you do NOT ALREADY have your PCT prepared and ready, IMO, so definitely take some time to look around the forums and research more about hormonals and PCT - even ask some of the experienced hormonal users re advice.

Oh heck no. Grab some d-aspartic acid and maybe an AI lik Free Test or Triazole.

[Slamu]

Wow.... take it easy. I was asking because I've seen a few people have posted that they've used IGF as a PCT some people reported that they didn’t need to use a PCT at all. I wanted to know if I could avoid using Clomid or Nolva because people report some nasty side effects from them. Its the reason why I bought the Test2. And I havent used Epistain of 7 days yet.

[seccsi]

This product is definitely on my list of things to try.

you can use IGF 2 WITH pct, but no way should it be used AS pct. thats asking for problems down the road. either TRS by PP or a serm is the way to go. if u are afraid of the side effects of a serm, why the hell did you take a steroid then?

[R1balla]

haha i was thinking that also. you should be concerned with the steroid messing you up rather than PCT. like BKW said, either do it the right way or not at all

[djblurr]

interested in this product, but I've got a couple of questions. 200lb says use 9 caps daily. Does one bottle last a month? Should I run 1 or 2 bottles?

I can't find any info on how much mucuna is in each cap, is this just a propriety blend? What do the extra ingredients do? Is this the best mucuna pruriens product going around?

Cheers

240/9=28 days so one bottle will last you roughly about a month

Should I run 1 or 2 bottles?

up to you really. I like to use it in 2 month intervals myself but try it for a month and see if it is something you enjoy and benefit from

I can't find any info on how much mucuna is in each cap, is this just a propriety blend?

yes

What do the extra ingredients do?

thats really for you to decide but it is very competitive with other products in the same category.
