so I wanted to create a video on

intermittent fasting in higher levels of

fitness I had someone ask me a question

there a bodybuilder they compete and

they’re having a hard time doing this

with their performance and they want to

know should they increase more

carbohydrates okay so let’s just talk

about that so the first thing I’m going

to do is really get your body fat

adapted okay it could take some time

especially if you’re an athlete so

because with time it becomes more and

more efficient the system becomes more

efficient and you’re less reliant on the

stored sugar glycogen and you can

actually just burn fat and your

performance will go up but with keto you

have the flexibility to go from 20 grams

to 50 grams on the high end for carbs so

I would suggest definitely go to the

higher end and start with 50 grams of

carbohydrates now if you’re an athlete

and you’re like 20 years old or you’re

18 years old you could probably go to 60

maybe even 70 okay without a problem and

still get into a pretty hardcore ketosis

but the type of carbohydrates are very

important you want to try to consume the

carbs that are low in the glycemic index

and also low on the glycemic load I’m

gonna put a video down below on more

information about that so berries would

be very good to consume versus apples

for example the type of berry would be

blackberry and raspberry green bananas

is another option not the yellow bananas

but the green bananas because they are

low on the glycemic index potatoes are

not a good idea unless they’re raw okay

but who’s going to eat a raw potato but

raw potatoes have a very low glycemic

index hummus it’s still a carb it’s

lower on the glycemic index so consuming

50 grams of these I think would be a

great thing for someone that is doing a

higher level of performance whether it’s

a competing or maybe a CrossFit workouts

or long distance running alright thanks
