Body Building Lovers

I'm into weight lifting. I am not yet at a point where I am increasing my carbs. But I am looking for encouragement and feedback.

There's a thread on Reddit called /r/ketogains and in the sidebar they discuss CKD (cyclical keto diet) TKD (targeted keto diet) and SKD (standard keto diet). If you're set on adding carbs back in after being on keto either the CKD or TKD might be a good option. The TKD basically is ingesting carbs before and prior to workouts and still staying on a keto regiment. While CKD incorporates rotating carbs loading days.

Good luck!!

I do keto sort of. I eat carbs post workout.

I'm coming off of Keto and slowly increasing carbs. I'm into body building and looking for friends who are like minded and have experienced the same with Keto/low carb and increasing again. I have a few questions I'd love to bounce off you guys!
Will only appove people with open diaries and will not accept requests with no info/ pics. Sorry, too many weird fake accounts on here.

Welcome. What kind of questions do you have?

I have been wondering if my current increase of 5g of carbs a week is sufficient or if I can bump it to 10g without a fat gain?

Fat gains will be determined by calorie surplus. With increased carbs you would see increased glycogen storage which subsequently might add a lb or two. So you can replace fats with carbs, but if calories are equal there wont be a body fat adjustment.
