Dietary Agnosticism and the Nuance of Ketosis

Which fitness diet is best? All of them, depending on when you use them, what the context is. They all work until they don't? Yeah, and they all work in different situations for different physiologies. And for different preferences? Different preferences. I think we should pretty much be like Switzerland when we talk about diets. Agnostic as fuck agnostic as fuck because different people do better on different diets So people will poopoo a keto diet oh people hate the keto diet however when most of the time when I put people on a keto diet for the reasons I do is because it tends to make them satiated they tend to like their food and it keeps them on track so it's not pro-keto it's pro the outcome and open to experimentation of that dogma. 100%. And having every client as an N of one and choosing the right thing for them. But what's funny is there's a lot of people that are in ketosis, which is technically a ketogenic diet that aren't what is what they look at as a ketogenic diet. Most people doing bodybuilding in that last stage when they're about to get on stage, I think they would be surprised if they actually measured their blood BHBs, which is your measurement for ketosis. Piss on the stick. not a piss on the stick you want blood you want blood almost every i think every single competitor i've ever dealt with probably was ketosis they were in ketosis even though it didn't look like a ketogenic diet on paper and a lot of them probably would have had dogma against ketosis 100 100 but here's the thing like what what are the three things that they say you need for ketosis low protein low to moderate protein high fat low carb when you throw training in the mix it alters things. I've actually hit ketosis on triple body weight protein and 250 grams of carbs and almost no fat. We're right back at exercise, nutritional metabolism again. Exactly. Like all of these things fit together. If you took a guy in the tour to France, he was training like eight hours a day on the bike and you gave him 500 grams of carbs. He would go into ketosis. That is a ketogenic diet for them because it's not really about the carbs. It's not really about the fat. It actually has to do with, does your liver have glycogen? Because when you deplete the liver of glycogen, it stimulates a ketogenic process. So good. Solid. Yeah. Next question.
