    Diabetic bodybuilder

    I'm diabetic and was wondering what is the best way for a diabetic to use insulin to gain muscle? I currently use it 2 to 3 times a day and also post workout with dextrose.

    I know nothing of diabetes, but the most common injection times are morning, pre workout, and post workout. Pre workout being the most dangerous.

    Well I'm not a full fledged type one diabetic. I take oral meds too, so I only use 2 to 3 times daily to keep my sugars in check.

    As a diabetic do you see quality gains from the insulin?

    Yea, that's what I thought. I'm using it post workout with dextrose and after being off my cycle for two and a half months I haven't lost any weight but I'm not quite and lean. Close tho.... I guess I'll just continue with the dextrose?
