I know most of you guys don't give a shit about the science behind some of this stuff, but **** you I'm going to post it anyways because I'm becoming a huge Keto fan for numerous reasons
New study out with results not yet published.
"Keto group vs regular bodybuilding/western/college diet. 12 weeks long. Vigorous weight training protocol.
Calories matched
Protein matched (maybe the one unrealistic part of this study)
I think the keto group was 75%/20/5 Fat/pro/cho
The keto guys lost twice the amount of fat. They gained slightly less muscle when they initially looked at ultrasound and Dexa. But once they carbed them up (glycogen and water are "lean body mass"), they had equivalent muscle gains. "
