insulin pushes glucose into muscles which causes them to pull in water as well... the result is a short term visual trick that makes the muscles fuller while reducing subcutaenous water. makes them look bigger/leaner on stage.

just b/c someone uses insulin doesn't turn them into a diabetic...

Thats true, but insulin isnt muscle specific, I believe it also facilitates glucose uptake into fat cells.
