hey guys I’m back in today we’re going

to answer the question is exercise

really a must for keto ok well first

let’s talk about weight loss diet like

an a healthy keto plan contributes to

85% of your progress with weight loss ok

and exercise is only going to give you

15% so it’s a very small percentage but

there is benefit in to doing exercise to

actually hit your goal

however exercise has a lot of other

benefits alright number one it will

increase oxygen okay to your brain to

your heart throughout the entire body

that’s kind of important it decreases

stress it’ll increase your fitness okay

your dexterity your performance if

you’re doing a specific type of sport

alright number four tone it’s gonna be

really hard to get tone if you’re not

exercising alright number five is one of

the most important points and that is

overcoming atrophy if you’re female and

you’re going through menopause you

probably experienced this thing called

atrophy it looks like fat but it’s

really a loss of muscle so many women as

they’re going through menopause

experience atrophy due to the adrenals

not backing up the ovaries if the

adrenals are overworking and they’re

already tired going in the menopause

they have this spike in cortisol and

cortisol is a very catabolic hormone in

other words it breaks down muscle

protein mainly in the thighs and the

butt and it converts that into fat

around your gut a lot of times this

appearance of cellulite is really not

cellulite it’s actually a loss of muscle

protein so you’re gonna have to exercise

over a period of probably a couple years

to reverse that it’s important to know

that because if you think it’s just fat

and you’re doing the die over and over

you’re gonna be very frustrated because

you’re not going to see any change so

you have to actively work those muscles

over and over over a period of time and

because the adrenals are involved your

recovery is is very very important too

so when you exercise you go through a

certain duration of exercise and a

certain intensity in a certain recovery

so if you have an adrenal problem you’re

going through menopause the key is to

keep your duration or time of exercise

very short

your intensity very high and your

recovery very long okay so that’s the

pattern that you want to follow versus

getting on the treadmill for a long

period of time

moderate intensity short recovery so

you’re not going to see any change with

that so it’s also important not to over

train so if you’re working out like once

a week to start out is actually really

good and then twice a week not even

three times a week unless your recovery

is really really good so I just wanted

to bring this point up right here so

it’s impossible to get muscle mass if

you’re not exercising so if you’re

trying to put on muscle mass exercise is

going to be essential blood sugar

improvements exercise helps insulin

resistance so that’s another benefit

alright number eight exercise helps

sleep I know when I exercise I sleep so

much better alright number nine joints

flexibility getting rid of stiffness

vital I know between the ages of 25 and

43 I did not work out much myself and I

got really really stiff I neglected that

exercise and now that I’m 44 you know

implementing exercises really helped my

flexibility and I’m being totally

sarcastic because I’m 54 I’ve been

exercising for a bit of time okay so

number 10 blood flow in general so not

just exercise but all the nutrients in

your blood you’re going to push that

through the body you’re gonna push it

through the kidney through the liver

through the brain to the heart so that’s

a benefit and lastly cardiovascular

benefit the heart is a muscle so if

you’re working it you are going to

exercise it it’s going to improve now I

know this might be hard to believe but

some people actually have a resistance

to exercise that they don’t even like it

in fact they might hate it okay for

those people

I recommend walking maybe they like

dancing so that would be something they

can do hiking is a really good exercise

and I think for most people hiring a

personal trainer is a necessity because

a personal trainer can really push you a

lot further than you can push yourself
