SUper High Dosage cycles 4,000+ mg/weekly. EXPERIENCED USERS/COMPETITIORS ONLY

There are some, not many, but some... that overproduce hepcidin, where hematocrit wouldn't be impacted dramatically. But that would also mean that iron stores would be maxed out and circulating/metabolizable iron is low.

Hydration at the time of testing plays a key role as well. You could be at 48% today, and 52% tomorrow.

Yep, being dehydrated can severely increase hematocrit.

Mike, I'm considering throwing Humulin R into my cycle. What advise do you have for nutritient timing when I pin the Humulin R post workout.

What I currently do is:

Wake up and Pin GH
Meal 1: 1.5 cups oatmeal
6 ounces steak
2 whole eggs

Workout

Intraworkout: 50 grams isolate, 50 grams karbolyn

Postworkout: 7 ounces steak
2 Cups white rice

Would the way I'm eating work well for Humulin R or would you modify my diet to better suit the insulin?

As long as the nutrients are available to muscle tissue at the time the insulin is active, that is all that matters. Obviously, food type can have a significant effect on digestion rate, which can change your injection timing...potentially significantly.

Your question is pretty broad. Basically, if you think about what you are asking, you are asking me to design an entire workout-based insulin program for you. When you ask me if there are any diet changes I could make which "better suit the insulin", what you're really asking me is "can I improve your diet". Insulin will use whatever you guve it. It is a transporter hormone, so anything you consume while it is active will be transported into muscle tissue more effectively. There are a lot of things you could take both pre, intra, and post-workout (both food items and supplements), which could potentially improve performance, recovery, and growth.

On top of that, I don't know anything about you, so I couldn't possibly tell you what program would be best for you. Answering that question would require me to speak with you in depth before I could provide any recommendations.

Perhaps you could ask a more pointed question?

From what I've been reading this is what I would most likely do.(Just based on research)
7:30am- meal 1 (50g protein, 66g from brown rice flour, 2 cups milk)
8:15am- Pre workout ( 66g dextrose, 2g creatine, 15g bcaa)
9:30am-post workout: Inj. 10iu Humulin R (99g dextrose, 50g whey isolate, 2g creatine, 16g glutamine)
10:30am- meal 2 (brown rice 66g, chicken breast 40g, 33g dextrose/25g isolate)

Inj would be 4/wk for 4-6wks
Monday: Legs
Tuesday: Shoulders/back
Thursday: Legs
Saturday: Back/arms

This is just my plan, I'm not worried about spilling over a bit. If it gets to the point of putting on noticeable Bf I'll drop carbs slowly.
Using Humulin R just because of the ease to get it OTC, I do know humalog would be the better choice though.

I had a few questions that there seems to be mixed opinions on and too many non researched answers thrown out there.

Pre vs post workout inj: With Humulin R is there a benefit to inj Pre, so the peak is closer to post workout?
IM vs SubQ: IM will circulate faster: is it necessary or will it not yield much more results?

MikeArnold: without asking you to make a plan for me, how is my nutrient timing regarding using Humulin R?
