[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like a good way to have low energy because of a complete lack of carbohyrates floating around your system.

Everyone I know that has done this has very little success with any even moderately strenous exercise program. [/quote]
Dietary carbohydrates are easier, but your body can make its own energy with sufficient food. And people with severe epilepsy manage to get by with what is essentially a carnivore diet. I wouldn’t do it unless I had to, but it’s not like the human body can’t derive nutrition from a variety of sources. That’s one of the reasons why we’re so successful as a species. [/quote]

For sure, but to intentionally put yourself into that situation without a need to isn’t particularly productive. Most people that try this aren’t successful in having anywhere near the energy system return as you would with a normal diet that includes dietary carbs.

I do get a chuckle frequently when a “fat adapted runner” blows up during multiple marathon attempts and posts about it on Reddit. [/quote]
