10. Heavy Workouts are Deadly on a Keto Diet Plan
A couple years back, that was me… Slapping 315 lbs. on the weight bench and lifting my heart out. See when I first started keto no one told me that I had to exercise a different way. It resulted in me losing a ton of muscle and I was really frustrated and almost gave up on keto.
Working out “heavy” basically just puts you in a catabolic state… Raising your cortisol, spiking your insulin looking for “that” immediate energy which is carbs. Since the carbs aren’t there, down goes your muscle mass!
