yeah, but Gymnasts aren't really competing for long periods are they and their strength to weight ratio is more important than duration of performance.
mate, all I was saying is that Gymnasts only perform for a minute or two then trundle off stage. So that is what they train for. The average person or the average sportsperson is performing for a longer duration than a gymnast's routine.

and a 100 metre sprinter shouldn't take much more than 10 seconds... wtf does that mean? it has nothing to do with how they achieved that performance in the first place

The brain uses carbs yes, but can adapt to using ketones. I felt fantastic during the CBL prep which I ate nothing but protein and fat for 10 days.
I think train well without carbs, others not so much. It's about finding out what works best for you.

I've previously tried cycling high carb training days and high fat rest days (leangains style), as you have suggested. I found it a lot easier (both physically and physiologically) to restrict carbs and lose body fat.
Based on the catalyst episode Shane Watson (including many other athletes) has experienced similar results so it's something people looking to reduce body fat while remaining highly active should consider.
