IGF1 LR3 fat loss & HGH comparison. Common questions: First how does IGF-1 LR3 compare to HGH. Secondly, does IGF-1 LR3 have the same fat-burning effects as HGH? Lastly, is this okay to be used in conjunction with PCT?
</br>
</br> Short answer based of user experience. 1. Better 2. Not sure but it definetly has fat reducing properties 3. Perfectly fine. 1. Better AND much Quicker results than HGH 2. Don't think it can match results when strictly compared to HGH for Fat Buring only, but overall IGF has many more Positive benefits than HGH aside from a "decent" fat burner. 3. IGF should be part of EVERY PCT, it's regenerative and restorative properties are unmatched.

</br> IGF1 science
</br>
</br> For the athlete today there is a tremendous amount of focus in their training to be bigger, stronger and faster by any means necessary.* There is an abundance of anabolic agents that do this,*yet unfortunately*have*ill side effects.* If you're 18, losing strength, and your youthful appearance then you might be encouraged to take growth hormone injections.* However, if we look at the common ground of these growth hormone injections, steroids and other anabolic agents when it comes to what is called a biochemical bottleneck (the funnel through which all the substances must pass) in their effect on muscle tissue, endocrine, exocrine glands and even DNA are often referred to as the blueprint of life.* The funnel is IGF-1.* IGF-1 or somatamedin C is far safer and 10 times more*effective than growth hormone itself.* In fact, the majority of the strength increase, muscle increase and anti-aging effects of growth hormone are due to its ability to raise IGF-1 levels in the body.* HGH has a very short half-life in the body of only 20 minutes versus IGF-1, which has a half-life of 20 hours.* IGF-1 is critical in preserving the nuclear DNA that is our blueprint for life and helps determine our max lifespan.
</br>
</br> Growth Hormone*(GH) is one of the endocrine hormones that decline as we age (such as testosterone, melatonin, estrogen, and DHEA). *Not only does GH and IGF-1 prevent biological aging, they also reverse a broad range of symptoms associated with aging and even certain diseases related to aging.* GH is the primary hormone of*the pituitary gland and significantly decreases as we age especially after our 40s.* As GH is pulsated from the*pituitary gland mainly at night, it is quickly converted into IGF-1*in the liver, creating the metabolite form of GH your body is ready to use.* The decline in GH is directly associated with certain aging signs like wrinkling skin, graying of the hair, decreased energy and sexual function, increased body fat, heart disease and weak/brittle bones.* All of these issues can be retarded/reversed with IGF-1.
</br>
</br> IGF-1 versus HGH Muscle Mass Scientists gave two different control groups of muscle tissue IGF-1 and Human*Growth Hormone (HGH)*to study the effects of these two hormones.* The muscle tissue that was given IGF-1 on its own increased in size, whereas HGH alone had no effect on the muscle size.* The reason is that HGH must be converted to IGF-1 before it is able*to be metabolized by the body.* So how does IGF-1 do this?
</br>
</br> IGF-1 has been shown to Increase the transport of the building blocks of proteins called amino acids into cells throughout the body.* These amino acids, having reached the muscle cells, will regenerate muscle tissue following exercise.* Thus, the first job of IGF-1 is to assure proper absorption of the building blocks of the muscle itself so that muscle protein synthesis can occur. IGF-1 is like*insulin*in that increases*the uptake of blood sugar known as glucose; the University of East Carolina has reconfirmed this. *Doctors establish that IGF-1 stimulates glucose transport in human muscle tissue. GF-1 along with insulin has the ability to slow the rate of protein breakdown.* This is known as*catabolism inhibition. *Therefore it is anti-catabolic.
</br>
</br> IGF-1 like*HGH but unlike insulin, shifts fuel utilization from carbohydrates to fat within the muscle cells themselves.* This means your body will burn fat including fat made from carbohydrates in your diet and other dietary fats. IGF-1 helps establish lean muscle mass without a corresponding rise in fact issue.
</br>
</br> IGF-1 also has other powerful positive influence on the*human metabolism: Improved white blood cell production Restores the immune-promoting lyphoid*tissue Stimulates proliferation of both VB and C. lymphocytes (kill viruses) Increases the uptake in degradation of dangers LDL cholesterol by macrophages Improves nitrogen retention (muscle preservation) and increases sodium*excretion Improves parathyroid function vitamin D interaction to produce dense bone matrix reduces the urinary hydroxyl*proline excretion
</br>
</br> Some of the characteristics of someone with a IGF-1 deficiency: Increased body fat percentage Increased abdominal visceral fat Elevated LDL Decreased HDL cholesterol Thin skin Lack of connective tissue Decreased hair and nail growth, reduced sweating, reduced heart output Emotional instability Poor memory Depression Reduced sex drive and functions Reduction in skeletal muscle strength and size Reduced thyroid function Insulin resistance, which can lead to type II diabetes Reduced exercise performance

igf-1 lr3 changed my body permanently! Love it love it love it!
 
IGF works similarly to hgh in some regards, but not everything since it is what you get when hgh is processed in the liver, so it's a little more specific in action. A little goes a long way, but I'd say after having cycled it a number of times that you need a good amount for a long time like hgh to make the permanent changes Presser mentioned. I haven't used it quite as much as Presser, but I have used enough to permanently change some muscles, namely my arms as those who know me will attest. It does burn fat well and you can use it during PCT, but it doesn't replace traditional components of PCT.

I don't do enough of it to see the changes Presser and company have. I use it at low end 50-100 mcg/d 3-4 months a year. I get a lot leaner, fuller and the pumps in the gym are way way better.

i don't go above 100mcgs, i do 60mcgs daily and rarely go up unless its time to incorporate another supplement, then i usually up the igf a bit to go with my new ""supplement"" lol, but I'm not a big dose guy, long runs, but not big runs
 
I've been reading a lot about IGF-1 on here and it sounds like a silver bullet. It apparently is very effective in recovery from injury to muscle tissue and apparently promotes bone density and numerous other positives, according to what's been written above and other places. Does its positive effects include regeneration orvhealing of tendons? Tendons, when surgically repaired are VERY slow to regenerate, fiber by fiber, which I experienced when I had a rotater cuff tendon repaired. Very slow recovery.

I also get tendonitis in my elbow(s) which has reared its ugly head lately and I'm thinking about trying this stuff for it.

yes it helps heal and strengthen tendons, and cartilage , i posted a study from medical journal on this very subject in articles forum not long ago, so you should be able to find it fairly easily as it shouldn't be more then a page back, or u can just run it through our search engine here, though our search feature is on the fritz so its hit or miss using searches until we get it figured out and fixed, but yes that info is n article forum

Here is an article on IGF and collagen healing, regeneration, repair ect… and tendons are comprised of tightly woven collagen fibers i believe

Just read the article, Presser, thx for bumping itbup. Now all I need is a doc or someone to translate some of the terms into English! Lol!

Collogen increase no doubt, my skin feels tighter & softer. As for injury, my shoulders pretty fucked when I train it or do incline... I'll apply it to my delts n see & get back to y'all.

how is your dosing protocal w 60mgs? In worked muscle? 30mg per side once a day?? come on presser, I
wanna be like you when I grow up. lol
I want to run again. I did years ago and I went down on the freeway on my motorcycle wearing no gloves and
a tee shirt. lol Major ROAD RASH on arm and hand. Was doing IGF (I got here) forgot dose ect, but my
skin healed unbelieveably fast. I definitly had to be the igf, I was amazed how quick my arm healed. Seriously
looking to do again and serious about Pressers protocal.
 
Presser you do 60mcg total? I do 50mcg per side once a day preworkout I lower to 50mcg total off days only. Honestly my goal is bigger fuller triceps traps n chest & I'm seeing that. Recovery is excellent! I'mma try the post workout application later.
 
3,500 credits will get u some free IGF1 from the MC store! Just gotta post some good stuff. Try not to post things already posted :D other than that... We can bet some credits on sports etc. Or maybe some will donate ya some LMAO.
 
Since we are on the subject, I do have a couple of questions about the mc product. How many ml's is it per bottle and also since I've only ran HGH, would anyone mind pm'ing me how I would run IGF, if it's even any different. Thanks for the help as always guys, love this place!
 
1ml/mg per bottle. 50-100mcg is a common dose either preworkout or postworkout or when you wakeup. It can mess with blood sugar level a little so you just gotta figure out what works for you.
