Vial sizes vary by vendor. Smaller bottles are usually 3 mL; larger bottles are often 10 mL. Match the label on the vial you actually bought, then use the calculator below if you need to adjust.

Vial strength 5 mg
Bottle format often 3 mL
BAC water 3 mL
Concentration 1.67 mg/mL

Overview

MGF (mechano-growth factor) is the splice variant of IGF-1 released in exercised muscle. It activates satellite cells for local repair — that’s why it’s injected into or near the trained muscle rather than systemically.

Preparation

Recon: 5 mg vial + 3 mL BAC (1.67 mg/mL).

Protocol

PeriodDoseUnits (@ 1.67 mg/mL)Frequency
Week 1100 mcg6 units (0.06 mL)1x/day
Week 2150 mcg9 units (0.09 mL)1x/day
Week 3200 mcg12 units (0.12 mL)1x/day
Week 4250 mcg15 units (0.15 mL)1x/day
Weeks 5–8300 mcg18 units (0.18 mL)1x/day

Cycle

4–8 week cycles. Inject into or near the trained muscle immediately after training for the localized effect.
