IGF-LR3
THE MUSCLE MAXIMIZER
Long R3 Insulin-like Growth Factor-1; LR3 IGF-1
IGF-LR3 is a modified version of IGF-1 with a much longer half-life. The modifications make it more potent and longer-lasting than natural IGF-1. It activates muscle satellite cells, promotes protein synthesis, and has powerful anabolic effects - making it popular among bodybuilders and those seeking muscle growth.
