New to keto

The idea of ketosis is quite interesting to me, I don't want to loose weight but I do want to reduce my bf%. From what I've been reading ketosis can help me do this. Someone not he main board has said that I will only burn the fat I eat though and not my bf, is that true?

Now I am slightly worried about exercise, I like to run, not major distances but a few miles. Will this be safe on a ketosis diet? I don't want to make myself ill or pass out on a run.

Also is the idea to get your weight/bf to the desired range and then gradually increase carbs until you find the 'maintenance' carb level?
