IGF-2 Review


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.

Sounds good. I experienced some of the same results just from toying around with dosages last month. Improvements in sleep, recovery and muscle fullness were noticed right away. Skin got oily very quickly which tells me something is working.

Plan to use the rest of my batch soon as I get back into lifting shape. Stacked with Drive..it's the shizz.

IGF-2 is one of those rare blends that can deliver superior benefits on multiple fronts. Endurance. Strength. Lean Mass. Hypertrophy. cAMP-and-cGMP-boosting. Testosterone Modulation. Glucocorticoid Antagonism/Cortisol Regulation. Prolactin Inhibition. Glycogen Regulation. Phospho-Creatine Boosting. Insulin Modulation. Growth-Hormone Synthesis. Adaptogenic Protection...

A simple and versatile blend, IGF-2 can be used to dramatically improve the potency and effectiveness of just about any stack.

Drive/IGF-2 is an awesome stack. Consider adding RPM to that combo and you would end up with results comparable to those from the use of very mild steroids Which ever stack you end up selecting, we would very much appreciate a feedback of your experience.

I am already an RPM addict, have not worked out without it since July. The only thing holding me back from Drive is i want to run it at 6 caps per day, so 2 bottles a month is a tad expensive, that and its holiday time, gotta get the family gifts. I would definitely log it, as I am looking at a sick recomp/cut starting mid-january or earlier if my finances improve slightly. currently sitting at 10%bf, and I am sure drive/IGF-2/neovar would rip me up inside out. (along with proper diet of course)

RPM/Drive/IGF-2/NeoVar should be explosive! See how your finances go in January. If it turns out that you might need some help on the Drive, let me know. With some luck, I may be able to arrange something for you, if you would log your stack!

I didn't just maintain strength, I gained strength. The thing I noticed most was increased recovery and lessening of DOMS.

Great review bud. BTW....stacking it with DRIVE and RPM is a fun thrill ride. I am 4 weeks into that stack right now. I'm loving my results, I've run all three before, but never stacked all three together. Its definitely worth running though when you get a chance.

I hear you, Sir! IGF-2/RPM/Drive is a stack everyone should do at least once. Then make it a habit!

Im 18 years old and playing college football. Im about to undergo surgery to fix two small hernias and should be back to lifting in 2-3 weeks. When i come back to lifting i want to try IGF-2. Right now im 6-2 220 and 9.4%. I wana put on about 8-9 pounds of muscle between now and august 14. I want to keep my speed and endurance but get my weight and strength up. Can IGF-2 help me with these 8-9 pounds? What should i stack it with? i dont think i need RPM or Drive.

I would say that you're too young to need a test/GH booster. Diet should be your primary concern.

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

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.
