[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1010469, member: 211504"] First of all, stop running 4 miles a day if you want to gain weight. 2-3 times a week is good for cardio, but it's certainly not going to help you gain weight. Weight gainer is a huge waste of money and like [USER=234442]@qe5rt[/USER] mentioned, it's just a calorie/carbohydrate bomb. As a type 1, that's incredibly dangerous. I'm also like him in the sense that I use a lot more insulin when I'm bulking (Usually 25-30 units/day) versus when I'm cutting (at little as 0 units/day). Insulin absolutely promotes weight gain which is why non-diabetic bodybuilders try to spike their insulin levels before/after a workout to maximize their muscle gains. Long story short: the only way you're going to gain weight is to eat more than you burn. Carbohydrates certainly make gaining weight easier, but they obviously complicate managing your blood sugars.
