First off I'm type 1 diabates so I'm not just using insulin for anabolic reasons. But I still feel it's important to mention just how anabolic insulin had made me recently.
Let me first start with my old routine. I had humalog, a short acting insulin, and Humalin N, a long'ish acting insulin. The humalog would cover the meal I ate at that time and the Humalin N would cover the meal later, like 4-5hrs later. I did that twice a day so basically I could eat 4 meals a day and be peachy but here's the drawback. My body was never recieving a constant insulin/nutrient transport system. My insulin would peak 4 times per day but other than that I went the rest of the day with no insulin, i.e. complete lack of anabolic growth.
Now to how I changed my program and the results yeilded. I still use humalog but I got rid of the Humalin N and replaced it with Lantus. Lantus is a very long acting insulin. It is designed to not peak at all but to give me a baseline insulin level. This right here is what I alluded to in the above paragraph, that my body didn't have a contant stream of nutrient transport (insulin). Well now my body has a baseline of insulin 24 hours a day. How do take care of meals? Everytime I eat I take some humalog, so now I can eat as many meals as I want just as long as I take some Humalog, it's great! I eat 5-7 meals everyday and it's working perfect.
Results, in the gym I feel so pumped. I have tons of energy. I believe this is because before I would go to the gym and I would have no insulin in myself because if I did I would have to eat a meal. But now since I have a baseline inuslin that does not actively lower my sugar level but merely keep nutrient transport going my muscles feel so full and strong. I began my new insulin program 5 weeks ago and I began lifting again 4 weeks ago. I had stopped lifting completely for 3 months (the summer). 4 weeks back into lifting I have already surpassed my previous maxes!!! I was very weak the first week back I could barely incline bench 95lbs for a set. But since my body has been growing and recoving so much better now I did a set today of 225 on incline for 7 reps, mind you this was after 6 previous work sets! I had never done that much before and now I crushed it.
Conclusion, insulin is redonkeylous for growth and I'm so happy that I found a way to maximize my conditon (before it was a hinderence) and make it be conducive for bodybuilding.
