I started running it solo back on Sept 24th. I did add in a test booster, Testabolan V2, but no AAS. I have been keeping a log, just wondering if there was any interest in it.
Yes, any internal organ growth would be of concern.interested to know if u feel any intestinal growth, thats what turns me away from this so much
quite typical and normal. if you dont increase carbs, you will lose fat while on igf.Weighed myself this morning, im down 2.2 lbs. Diet has been the same as pre igf-1, workout is different, no pwo cardio, so theoretically carlorie expenditure is down, but I have a weight loss. I will see if I can get my body fat done this week.
Aye, Im not unhappy I need a lower BF%. I got ahold of some maltro/dextro and will pop 100g pwo with my protein shake. Updates for Wed and yesterday tomorrow when I get more timequite typical and normal. if you dont increase carbs, you will lose fat while on igf.
100g maltro/dextro is overkill at your height/weight/BF.Aye, Im not unhappy I need a lower BF%. I got ahold of some maltro/dextro and will pop 100g pwo with my protein shake. Updates for Wed and yesterday tomorrow when I get more time
a quick edit: one thing unrelated to metabolism and weight training, unknown if this is coincidental, but my hearing has improved. I didn't notice it until yesterday, when it was probably the 3rd time I was able to overhear someone talking with alot of background noise, and chimed in the convo. Usually I have to have people repeat themselves often when they are speaking directly to me. I did 12 years of band, so my hearing is meh.
Kind a sterotype or or an uninformed thing to say imo. I won't go into much detail, but I went from 118 to 168 naturally @12 bf over the years. Had a surgury etc since then. Anyhow, I read on igf-1 for near 2 years before I decided to try it. So I actaully do consider myself pretty informed. Im using it as a recomp, and as a way to expedite myself back where I used to be. I stated in my first post why I didn't start directly with AAS, however they aren't out of the question for the future.156 pounds 18% BF and on IGF?? Are you using it to heal an injury?
You do realize that you have no idea what you are doing? No more for you after you are done with this course. You can easily gain mass or lose weight without doing anything, so all results will be diluted anyways.
go AAS next time.. and like after you gain 15 pounds of lean mass, which will take a year of Natual hardwork
Okay nice recomendation, I have been taking in the low GI carbs already post workout. I was thinking of adding the maltro/dextro based off losing 2.2 lbs, since the IGF-1 is a pretty robust GDU, I figured the spike in insulen would push more with minimal if any fat gain.100g maltro/dextro is overkill at your height/weight/BF.
I would take around 30g if you had to, then have another 30-50g of proper low-GI carbs like sweet potato or oats about an hour later.
This is correct. I would dose min 60g.Okay nice recomendation, I have been taking in the low GI carbs already post workout.

I will start low with 25g, since thats one scoop and see how it goes this next week.
Well I do have before pics, I took a couple for my own sake. But tbh, Im kinda ashamed lol. Im not done! So no, no afters yet. A few people have noticed a difference, and asked if I put on muscle weight recently. I inform them I weigh the same. The difference to me looks marginal atm, at the end of the run, I hope to look much different though.hows it going man? got any before and after pics?
I was only light headed the first few times I injected, due to the reason you stated. I started intaking some fast acting carbs, 25g maltro/dextro in addition to my protein shake.Hello Anomaly,
I'll be following your post with great curiousity. I just did my first Long R3 IGF-1 cycle about two months ago but I screwed up and reconstituted it in the sodium chloride that was sent by the company I ordered from, instead of acetic acid. Yea, I know; I'm a dumbass. Although I'm sure that the IGF-1 became unstable pretty quickly within the first two weeks I still felt some effects, one effect was a light headed feeling just like you experianced. I found that drinking some whey protien and grape juice eliminated that light headed feeling very quickly. I think I became light headed because IGF-1 shares some of the same blood sugar lowering effects that insulin has. After a while I didn't get light headed after injections, I don't know if that is because I developed a tolerance or because my IGF-1 had degraded in the sodium chloride.
Are you still getting light headed now that you have been using the IGF-1 for a while?
I wish you well on your IGF-1 cycle and thanks for the log!
By the way, for anyone who is curious about IGF-1 you may want to check out this thread if you haven't already. Grunt started it (I see that Grunt has already been mentioned in this thread) and it contains some excellent information and insightful opinions. > "My take on IGF-1" sorry I couldn't post the link, just run a search.
Damn I must be on the wrong juice! Let's see, 20 lbs a month....Id be over 460 in a year!:cool3:Quasi Workout Day Oct 22
Did 40 mins of cardio, Im recomping quickly. I would say, if I were to estimate the immediate effects, my results are about 3x as fast as normal. Sounds like a lot, but in terms of AAS, were you can put on 20 lbs in 4 weeks around 10-12x a normal rate, 3x is nice and moderate. In 3.5 months I dropped 4% bf and put on 6 lbs scale weight naturally. 4 weeks on this stuff, I have stayed the same scale weight but dropped 2.5% bf.
Day 13 (Fri) Oct 23 (40mcg)
Chest/tri/shoulders today, I increased weight this week and maintained reps. Someone I know saw me in the locker room, and asked how much weight I gained this month, and told them none to their surprise. I am bigger all over. I dosed a little bit higher today. I ordered new syringes online, since the Walgreens was giving me a hard time every time I tried to buy slin syringes. Same 50 unit syringes, but holy crap the needle is ½” now. I was actually scared to poke myself today. While working out today, my middle right knuckle is sore/stiff. No other knuckles or joints effected other than that one.

The gains from IGF-1 may seem moderate in comparison to AAS in the short term but consider that IGF-1 causes hyperplasia (creation of new muscle cells) while AAS only causes hypertrophy (growth of existing muscle cells). The gains in lean body weight should continue long after the use of IGF-1 is discontinued because you have created new muscle cells that will take a while to mature and grow. I read about a study on rats that were either injected with IGF-1 or subjected to resistance training. The rats that were injected with IGF-1 and the resistance trained rats gained similar amounts of muscle mass but when the the IGF-1 administration and the resistance training was discontinued the resistance trained rats quickly lost the the muscle mass that they had gained while the rats that were injected with IGF-1 didn't lose any muscle mass at all. This study shows that not only is IGF-1 a potent anabolic substance but it also has effects that continue to manifest long after its use is discontinued.
Another thing to consider when comparing the results of IGF-1 with AAS is that if the AAS being used aromatizes much of the weight you gain from it is probably water weight. In terms of strength gains androgens have a strong effect on the nervous system that increases certain neuro-transmitters which increases muscle recruitment, also androgens increase aggression which makes you crave some heavy weight to lift. These specific effects of AAS are all temporary. IGF-1 doesn't have any of these effects so strength gains may not be very noticeable. In contrast, IGF-1 may permantly increase your genetic potential to gain muscle mass.
I imagine that you already learned all of this through your research but I thought that I would mention these facts so as to join the conversation comparing the results of AAS versus IGF-1. I also wrote this hoping to get you more excited about your results from the IGF-1. Either way, isn't it great to use an anabolic substance that doesn't make your balls shink?!
Lol, yes. I've never done AAS, but yes I am happy to have my balls in full working order. I am happy with my results, and I was giving a quasi scientific comparison based off my normal gain rate at the gym for those interested in what IGF-1 can do by itself.Either way, isn't it great to use an anabolic substance that doesn't make your balls shink?!
Congratulations!!! Almost 4lbs gain in lean body mass in 5 weeks while losing fat at the same time is excellent progress!!! These results are especially impressive considering how difficult it is (at least for myself) to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time..
Decided to do the math:
In 36 Days.....
Start:
127 lb lbm
28.4 fat
Current:
131.75 lbm
23.25 fat
I have never actually used prescription/black market AAS either, athough I have tried a number of different prohormone/legal dietary supplement steriodI've never done AAS, but yes I am happy to have my balls in full working order.
:wtf1:I have never actually used prescription/black market AAS either, athough I have tried a number of different prohormone/legal dietary supplement steriod
products in the past and currently have been using boldione, 1AD, estra-diene-dione, h-drol, superdrol, and epistane (not all at the same time:knockedout: , I'm not quite that crazy) for a little more than a month. I have experianced a little testicular atrophy during this cycle as well as during past cycles. My balls always regain their usual size pretty quickly during post-cycle therapy.
Even though I have had great results using these supplements/drugs and have not suffered any long term side effects (as far as I know anyways) I would not recommend using these substances, especially the methylated ones, to a young person who is making progress naturally or is using something safer like IGF-1. I suspect that in terms of risk versus benefit IGF-1 is far superior to AAS. I believe that non-androgenic performance enhancing drugs such as IGF-1, mechano-growth factor, growth hormone, selective androgen receptor modulators, and gene doping protocols will be the preferred method of the future athlete/fitness enthusiast to enhance their training and performance. The method you are using now is the way of the future; one small step for Anomaly, one giant leap for mankind. I think that it is awesome that people like yourself are educated enough and brave enough to try a substance as new and advanced as IGF-1 without first using the performance enhancing drugs that have been around for decades.
Nice job..Lol, yes. I've never done AAS, but yes I am happy to have my balls in full working order. I am happy with my results, and I was giving a quasi scientific comparison based off my normal gain rate at the gym for those interested in what IGF-1 can do by itself.
I will have an update this weekend. I haven't had a day off since tues the 20th.
Stat update as of today though: 155 lbs and 15% bf. For those just tuning in I started at 156 lbs and 18% bf back sept the 26th. I am doing 1/4 the cardio I was before I started the IGF-1, due to having to pin immediatly post workout, and still dropping fat.

Very nice recomp material, just as others have claimed.
Please elaborate on what part of that statement you disagreed with. Do you really think that methylated hormones are safer than IGF-1, or was " one small step for Anomaly, one giant leap for mankind"(pretty cheesy I know, but I thought it was funny and metaphorically accurate) the statement that made you say WTF?:thinking::wtf1:
I wasn't seeking an apology, nor do I feel that I deserve one. What I was hoping for was an interesting discussion about the future of performance enhancing drugs. Even if the things that you took exception to are no big deal I would still like to hear your opinions on the subject. Don't you think that it is intriguing that Anomaly chose to go the IGF-1 route when there are still a few somewhat effective OTC legal AAS dietary supplements on the market?Sorry I was just feeling cranky at the time. There were several things I took exception to, but NBD.
I checked out this thread and all I can say is WOW!!!!! This this thread is like an online interactive textbook/medical journal. :01::cool3:great Great GREAT GREAT thread that should be required reading before anyone does peptides, wish I had found this before I did

thanks whoever posted this!
Well I have been dosing 3x a week at pretty low dose, so it will take about 8 weeks to use up 1mg of the IGF-1, hopefully it continues to work.I also find it stops having much affect after 6 weeks.
looks like a HUGE success to me. u should be proud of those results...especially just running IGF solo at a maintenance level diet:edit Delta for a 2 month run:
-1.83 fat
+7.43 lbm
