Tag: Targeted keto diet

While a standard ketogenic diet works for many, some athletes find that high-intensity training performance suffers due to depleted muscle glycogen. The targeted keto diet (TKD) offers a solution by strategically incorporating carbohydrates around workouts, providing an energy boost without sacrificing the metabolic benefits of ketosis.

The ketogenic diet, which restricts carbohydrates, typically to under 50 grams per day, shifts the body into a state of ketosis where it burns fat for fuel. For active individuals and advanced dieters, this raises a strategic question: **When should I eat carbs on keto diet?** The answer depends on your specific goals and dietary approach.
