HI!

I was wondering:

is it usefull (if already long term keto/no carb) to do a PSMF or should I add carbs to my post workout?

I could elevate the AMPK/mTor whip for max fat and min muscle loss.

Should I therefore do 3 days high carb (training) and 3-4 days low carb (no training)?

or do I need to raise insulin sensitivity by adding daily carbs slowly?

or are there still enough fat cells floating in the blood (which I have to burn in the muscle) and I have to do PSMF first still?

thanks!

    Seems to me like you are overthinking things. Whats your goal?

    max fat and min muscle loss :)

    why overthinking? its quite complicated with metabolic problems and trying to lose as well as build stuff in the body

    tried low fat A LOT before and never worked... maybe if I maximize the mtor and ampk pathways it will....

    Head on over to the body recomposition website (Lyle McDonald http://www.bodyrecomposition.com) where there is a ton of useful information. He has a modified PSMF diet called "rapid fat loss" which might fit your criteria.
