Hey /fit/, what are the best intramuscular injection sites for insulin? I have t1d and need my insulin to work faster when I get hyperglycemic. Also, tips on insulin use for gains pls
Injecting insulin IM

You dont.
I.V. is an alternative though.

dont fucking listen to this guy, intravaneous injection is FAST. when i went from 205 down to 165, i manage to somehow hit a vein during my insulin injection twice (2 different occasions) the first time i was stuck chasing my BS and eventually went to the er because i had enough sugar too the pooint of chasing that potential low that i was pale and throwing up. 2nd time i chased it more logically but now DO NOT inject in my arms, i would do IM only if you really want to go that route, but rotating sites can also make the HYPERS go down a bit faster.

You're supposed to inject subcutaneously, not intramuscular

Not injecting insulin subcu is literally retard mode and you deserve whatever you get

So which is better, IM or IV? IV would be fastest but I'm kind of scared to try it. I have hit abdominal muscle before by accident, but I got a really bad muscle spasm and bent the needle a lot. Effect was quick, but I'd like to find a better site. Leg\calf maybe?

What were your experiences with insulin IV/IM?
>>35219771
None. There is never any reason to do it. No one advocates it. No one does it, except maybe dumb fucks who think it's a good idea to take this shit to win a $5 trophy

I didn't realise how much retardation about insulin gets spewed around on /fit/

inzulin is not to be injected in the muscle as most aas
i currently use it as addition to my standard precontest protocol
1100/700/500/500(mg) for testdepo/masteron/tren acetat/npp
dianabol at 50mg daily
inzulin brand is called humalog
i use it as preworkout at 15ius (sometimes up to 20)
however i advise you to start at 3-4 ius daily and build up from there
gains can be compared to when first time i started 350mg test cycle
matching a nice set of basic aas compounds with inzulin and gh is the key for bodybuilding
sorry for unorganized post

Actually I'm a track athlete and whenever I go to compete I get a huge blood glucose spike from the adrenaline rush I sometimes get. SubQ isn't fast enough to fix it and it totally wrecks my performance. Just need some advice from people who've tried it
How does insulin help with muscle growth?
>>35219921
So when you use it before the gym, is that so the insulin will peak at the end of your workout?
>>35219950
yes
also that is where the myth of "15min anabolic window" originates from
