on low carb diets do you still consume carb post workout?

right now i'm down to 10% bf and i take carb post workout

should i take out the carb from the post workout drink? to get better results?
 
try to make ur carb pre work out
use prtien shake post work outcarbs r used as a power source when its taken pre work outnot post work out
 
Moresize 2, its called a TKD (Targeted Ketogenic Diet)... you can take carbs pre and post cycle if you want... but I would never go above 100g carbs max alltogether. I would only do this on the days that I lifted easy and did 2 hours of cardio (on my Triatholon training schedule). Make sure to subtract those out of your daily calorie alotment then redo the % of fat to protein to compensate, keeping protein about the same and dropping the fat calories.

I would test with KETOsticks to see if you can still reach Ketosis with whatever amount you chose,and chose low and then work up seeing what you can handle before hitting it up too hard.

With 100g carbs pre and post combined I could hit ketosis again in the early evening keeping my other carbs at about 30g throughout the day, but again I was also taking R-ALA pre and post workout.

Good luck

PM me if you got any Q's

2hr after post workout carb drink i tested and had trace amount of ketone ..what should i aim for ? i heard that too much ketone does not mean that you burn more fat
