ANECDOTE

Freak Genetics In Sports And Bodybuilding

  • Big Paul recalls college teammates who were naturally jacked despite poor diets, showing elite genetics at work.
  • He also notes Ronnie Coleman's early success improved sharply after cleaning diet and adding gear.
INSIGHT

Insulin's Long-Term Edge

  • Insulin boosts nutrient uptake and slowly compounds into extra muscle over months and years.
  • It increases glycogen synthesis and gives a fuller, rounder appearance that non-users rarely achieve.
ADVICE

Practical Timing For Rapid Insulin

  • Use rapid-acting insulin only on high-carb days and dose it before the meal like diabetics do to avoid hypos.
  • Skip injections before sleep and avoid dosing every meal to prevent stacked insulin effects and hypoglycemia.
