[quote=Anonymous]As a fairly serious runner, I would never dream of going low-carb. I've run on low carbs before (unintentionally) and it didn't go well or make me feel good. But we're talking 5-7 miles in a typical run at a fairly strenuous pace. Most people out there aren't doing that, so most people can probably go low-carb fairly comfortably. I try for a balance of protein, carbs and fat and I adjust the day-to-day ratios depending on what's planned that day or the next. If I'm lifting, I increase the protein afterward for muscle repair. If I'm running hard the next morning, I make sure dinner includes carbs. I think depriving oneself of an entire category of food can be hard to do long-term, and eating healthy is hard enough without having so many "eat this, not that" rules.[/quote]
