24 hours is a long window of activity. You would have to be very careful with a duration that long. I'd go with humalog or even humalin.

Lantus Glargine Insulin has a onset of 1hr, it has no peak, and its duration is 24hrs. In other words, this is not a very good drug for bodybuilding purposes. It's important to know that you must carefully monitor things such as your nutritional intake while Insulin is active. Once Insulin is no longer active, you may eat as you usually do. So for you to carefully monitor what you eat for the 24hrs that this type of Insulin is active for, would be a pain in the ass. That is why its best to get the short acting Insulins such as Humalog. Humalog is in and of your system by the 4th hr after injecting it. This makes life a lot easier as nutrition intake monitoring is now necessery for only 4hrs, not 24.

Its also important to know that its a good idea to avoid sleep while Insulin is active as the insulin may take its peak effect during sleep and significantly drop glucose levels. Being unaware of the warning signs during this slumber, you may be at a high risk of going into a state of severe hypoglycaemia without anyone realizing it. Even though Lantus Glargine Insulin has no peek, this can still occur.

So now you can see how much of a hassle it would be if you were to use this sort of Insulin for bodybuilding purposes. 24hr nutrition monitoring, avoiding sleep for this amount of time, its just too much. So to make things nice and easy, get some short acting Humalog, and the 24hr hassle suddnley turns into a 4hr hassle. Good luck
