There are a few forums on reddit dedicated to keto and they are great sources of information. You may want to research cyclical keto which allows for periodic carb increases for those who do heavy lifting. This is something many body builders do.

her1981 448 Posted May 25, 2016 I follow a Keto diet. Not sure about the muscle thing, but it's the only way I can actually lose weight. There are a couple keto groups on Facebook. They have a lot of good info in the pinned posts. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketogenicsuccess/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/407740426088952/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
