    it does register on the stix. maybe i just don't smell it. i dunno. it has taken me till tuesday to start showing some after carb ups on saturday and i have gotten to about 60 for my highest reading. anyhow, since you are here.... what's your recommendation on the carb up as far as time to do it and amount of carbs. i have been between 400 and 500 each time.
    also, some have told me that PWO with 16g carb won't hurt me. do you know about this?

    well there are two type of ketogenic diet that use carbs

    TKD used carbs pre and post workout to aid in weight lifting and CKD uses a supercompensation refeed once a week to overfill glycogen stores, followed by cardio and a total body workout to drop back into ketosis

    i'm about to do a write up on how to plan your workouts to drop glycogen stores in the muscle from normal levels(around 110mmol/kg) or from supercompensation levels(150mmol/kg) to total exhaustion levels (30mmol/kg) by figuring out the amount of sets and reps per exercise needed to drop the muscle group to the desired energy level

    then when you do your refeed you use your calculated levels of glycogen depletion to figure the amount of carbs you need

    400-500 is good for a good sized bodybuilder but when i get that writeup done you should be able to figure it pretty exactly
