hi guys in this video I want to talk

about endurance exercise and ketosis now

there’s this really strong idea that

when you work out specially endurance

athletics triathlons marathons that you

need to consume a lot of carbohydrates

before during and after the workout

because you’ll deplete your glycogen

Reserve if you don’t consume carbs so we

only have a small amount of reserve of

sugar

it’s called glycogen it’s stored glucose

and when you actually deplete that you

hit a wall of fatigue where you can’t go

anymore that’s called bonked okay

glycogen depletion you run a lot of your

sugar and you better have some more to

keep going so that’s been the kind of

the idea that’s floating around for a

long time but some new research is

saying the opposite you don’t have to go

through this there’s a thing called

ketosis or keto adaptation which is

doing ketosis for a period of time to

the point where your body is fully

adapted to running on fat fuel okay that

takes a lot longer in fact some of the

studies that we’re done in the past only

went for like a month of keto a

deputation that’s just not enough if

you’re if you’re a really good athlete

or a high high level elite athlete and

you do it for a month you might not see

the results as compared to doing it for

six months or even a year so this study

showed more of a long term key to

adaptation and what they found was two

things very interesting number one there

was no bad effects on this glycogen

depletion in other words your body now

was a fat-burning machine that was

running on fats and you didn’t need to

rely on this glycogen reserve anymore so

there was no fatigue no hitting a wall

none of that that was interesting and

the elite endurance athletes had

significant enhanced fat burning more

than double the sugar burners actually

was 2.3 x that’s incredible so the cells

basically were fat-burning machines

after the key to adapt that’s after a

hundred and eighty minutes exercise

with also evaluating 120 minute

post-exercise period there was no

problems with glycogen

so they burn double the fat and they had

no problems glycogen so your muscles do

not have to rely just on glucose they

can run on fat so I put some links down

below if you’re an athlete you need to

evaluate this and check this out check

out the research down below and I think

you’re going to find it quite

interesting thanks for watching hi guys

hey listen I created a pretty amazing

evaluation quiz down below that actually

analyzes your symptoms to find the cause

the root cause of all of your symptoms

the most likely cause so take the quiz

now and Wilson you report
