Keto Dieting for Powerbuilding

For quite a while now, I've been on a keto diet, both for adding muscle mass & fat loss. I did this after extensive research & coming to the conclussion that it's an optimal way of living.

it's actually a topic i could talk about for hours & hours. it's something i'd actually like to produce somewhat of a media platform for bodybuilders & powerlifters, promoting the benefits of having a high fat / lower carb diet...most of the time.

But anyway...would anybody like to see my diet? is this actually the right place to post it, or should i chuck it somewhere else?!
 
well i think it is possible i am sensitive to carbs too. I eat anything carb related and i blow up in 2 minutes flat full of fluid or fat... and 3 of my other siblings, my mother and my grandmother are all carb sensitive, anything with carbs makes them feel sick. sorry for the hi-jack PB.
 
Maybe you and PB should try Carb Cycling.
I had a good article on Carb Cycling somewhere or just google it.

I like the idea behind keto dieting. It would be difficult to stick to though. Easier if you lived alone though. Other people have a huge effect on the food you eat at least thats what I have found.
 
Cool, people are actually interested in keto bulking AND fat loss.

I think it's absolutely possible to do it for strength gains, fat loss, 'bulking up' & maintaining your composition.

I haven't chosen this life style, as a result of being sensitive to carbs, I actually don't get fat that easily. Most of my life i've been fairly lean..it was only a small gap when i had a few life events that i let things get ontop of me that meant I got softer.

After reading about concepts such as paleolithic nutrition, the anabolic / metabolic diet, dave palumbo's diet & other low carb / high fat type diets & reading the references...and their references...that i was sold to the whole concept.

My meals are actually taking longer & longer for me to cook..and eat. Some anyways...

Meal 1 - 40g whey (isolate), mixed with a fiber supplement + 25g peanut butter
Meal 2 - 45g tin tuna + 100g lettuce + sliced red onion + baby tomatoe + 25g macaadamian nuts
Meal 3 - 6 egg whites + 3 or 4 yolk
Meal 4 - 100g grilled chicken breast with the above veggies + 25g of macaadamian nuts
Meal 5 - As above
Train
Meal 6 - As meal 2
Meal 7 - As meal 1

Because we're all geneticlly different, we all handle carbs differently. The above diet works great for me, my insulin levels are always even, i don't get energy slumps, i don't retain tons of water. Come the weekend, I can eat whatever i want, as long as i keep my protein intake up, my carbs high & my fats low.
