Their bodies adapted through ketosis, limiting both glucose and glycogen stores, and using fats as the predominant energy source.  Even if you are doing very long cardio training, marathons and biking included, a ketogenic diet has been proven to be sustainable (2)  Weight training and Carb-upping  Carb intake may change if you lift weights  The only real time where ketosis can give performance loss is in exercises that need an explosive action  If you need a little boost in your performance during these, you can “carb-up”  Carbohydrates do help your performance and also help with recovery of muscles. That means faster gains, and better strength performance in your training sessions  There are two routes you can take here – TKD and CKD   TKD   A targeted ketogenic diet, where you’re intaking just enough carbs before your workout to knock you out of ketosis for the duration of your workout  How it works is that you supply a glycogen source to your muscle to use, and then once it is used up after you finish your workout you will resume a ketotic state. • Could cause you to feel sick some of the time by being in the grey area of in/out of ketosis.  CKD   A cyclical ketogenic diet, and is a more advanced technique  It’s more for bodybuilding and competitors that want to stay on a ketogenic diet while still building muscle   In this method, you stay on a regular ketogenic diet for a period of time (usually 5 days) and then do what is known as a carb-up for a period of time (1-2 days)   In a CKD, you are essentially replenishing all of your glycogen stores for all the training you’ll do for the rest of the week, and your goal is to deplete that glycogen – essentially a refeed period   (3,4)  In Summation   Research suggests that carbs consumed before or after exercise should not negatively affect ketosis  However, some individuals may find that they drop out of ketosis transiently due to the ingestion of pre-workout carbohydrates  After a workout, there will be a short period where insulin is elevated and free fatty acid availability for ketone production is decreased  However, as blood glucose is pushed into the muscles, insulin should drop again allowing ketogenesis to resume within several hours  Post-workout carbs might be expected to have a greater effect on ketosis, in that insulin levels will most likely be higher than are seen with pre-workout carbs • Kicks you out of ketosis easier because insulin sensitivity is so high after a workout  So individuals may want to experiment with pre-workout carbs first     References  1) The human metabolic response to chronic ketosis without caloric restriction: preservation of submaximal exercise capability with reduced carbohydra... - PubMed - NCBI.
