You dont actulayy lose strength when uou cut fat. Its just because youre in an energy deficit. When you reintroduce calories and carbs your old strenth will return very fast
do anything but keto/low carb
try and keep your carbs as high as u can whilst being in a deficit so you can maintain performance in the gym -> lose less strength and muscle
as opposed to
50 carbs -> no energy -> shitty ass performance -> loss of strength and muscle
WHAT ARE YOU ON ABOUT
i DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND
Simple. It's easy for anyone overweight to lose weight. But for any athlete you want as much of that weight loss to be fat and the least to be muscle. You can try to maximise the amount of fat with your macros and training. In terms of diet you tend to want to up the protein intake.
At the same total calories (and both at deficit) a keto diet will contain more protein than a diet higher in carbs. This can help to maximise fat loss.
You probably don't have to go down to full keto in terms of carbs but I think anyone should experiment with dropping the carbs down and bit rather than keeping it as high as possible. If you find you suffer then you can always bump them up again.
This is a pretty decent explanation from Eric Helms, hes a natty BBer but he powerlifts also, basically if your just looking to get beach lean(not lower than 8%), losing strength shouldnt be a problem unless you drop cals stupidly fast or do something drastic, being moderate with your weight loss is key
