Member 1877, 183 posts SQ 160, BP 127.5, DL 200487.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Im doing a keto diet at the minute and feel alot better training than i do when i have carbs. I was thinking if it is possible when i have cut the weight to stay in ketosis and up my calories to gain muscle and strength or do i need carbs. Has anybody tried this | ||

Has anybody tried this This has been talked about a few times recently. Most people seem to perform better in training when carbs are consumed, but others have a load of energy when in keto. When looking to cut calories (and get leaner) I find it easier to eat low-carb - its far more satisfying for me. | ||

Member 1307, 14110 posts SQ 355, BP 240, DL 370965.0 kgs @ 102kgs UnEq | There's a book i read .. Really struggling to remember the name! It was a years diet for a bodybuilder - constantly in keto, the idea behind bulking on it was that insulin was none existent due to no carbs so it was very hard / impossible to get fat whilst eating an excess calories from protien / fats .. | ||

www.grahamhicks.co.uk Member 994, 9594 posts SQ 330, BP 250, DL 405985.0 kgs @ 135kgs UnEq | simple answer mate - meat and veg.......... I function better on high protein less carbs. Not everyones cup of tea but works for me. Think training to put size on may be harder as workouts are more intense for longer periods for anything other than strength training. | ||
