I have always taken Igf pre workout. And I see that there are guys hear that say they take it post workout. Is there any benefit taking it post workout?
The reason I ask is I always take it to work with me and it's getting to the point where is hard to take it at work. And I go stright to the gym when I get off in the mornings. So I have been thinking about taking it as soon as I get home in the morning from the gym.

its suppose to be most beneficial post workout brutha, like insulin it will help shuttle all the nutrients straight to your muscles post workout , so loading up on protien post workout is very beneficial with post workout igf, I just think a lot of guys got caught up preworkout cause again it shuttles everything to the muscles like insulin and a lot of guys take boatloads of carbs preworkout and the glycogen stores become incredible and your muscles explode while training , but i do believe its probably most beneficial post workout with protein , or like i do it which is pre workout, followed by carbs, then while in the gym training i drink a 50/50 protein / carb drink, then load up on protien straight away after training!

So yeah post workout i do believe is how Insulin Like Growth Factor-1 was intended to be used when discovered by bodybuilders originally, and this is why some guys go hypo after using it and will actually need carbs

What is your thoughts on where to apply it? Do you think applying to the muscle worked is more beneficial than just applying to the stomach?

i do believe its beneficial to apply to specific muscles, and have come back from nerve damage that was suppose to be permanent according to my doctor, so i am a huge believer in applying to muscles. however i just go to the stomach now days as you still get the shuttling of nutrients effect and all the other effects you want, so i just stay there now days, but again think its great for muscle specific areas.

as mrbigz said its great pre/post as well, cant go wrong there! lol


to lightsout point about taking it close to bed, well some guys do go hypo from igf as im sure youve read on here alone, so i guess thats your call, i wouldnt dare recommend it if youve experienced your blood sugar drop before on igf ya know.

Lol don't be scared brother. If your gonna do it go big. Hit it hard then take your break. It's what the games all about breaking platues, high igf use I swear to you will tighten your body up, keep your veins popping while doing keto diet. It's all about the look and the conditioning.

I've run 1000 mcg In one day I swear I woke the next morning lean. Every one at the gym commented how much of a change I made over night and the veins on the triceps were rediculous
