If MS claims to have not lost strength, but GH points out the muscle glycogen is the primary source of energy when lifting and you'll lose strength, are we in agreeance that short term keto may not reduce strength?
There will be a week or two lag until your body fully adapts to using ketones as the primary fuel source. My first full run into keto I had a two day period where my energy sucked. Eventually that went away and I was back to full energy, full pumps and full throttle. But if you’re not a powerlifter and you want to lose weight. Who cares if you lose strength for a short period of time anyway?
