Why are you still obsessing over fat burning when you are trying to gain weight. Fat gain is gonna be a matter of how much you are consuming over a total day and how much you expend. It is not based on 1 meal.
You do not have to have fat loss on an empty stomach, exercise helps to expend more energy and creates an energy deficit. Try doing a search under "cockdezl" under the women's board and diet board...if they are still there.
Insulin will blunt fat burning, but if calories are reduced, this becomes more moot.
Try having a low GI meal (easily digestible) an hour or two before your workout. Then have a small whey shake before going to the gym. While there, sip on a dextrose drink. Afterwards, have another protein drink with whey. An hour after that have a regular meal. OR, You can just save your dextrose drink until after your workout along with a whey drink.
This is what I do when trying to add size. I do not drink dextrose drinks when leaning up.
