It's a great short term diet (2-4 weeks) beyond that I think it is very unhealthy.
I highly recommend all IronMagLabs supplements!

when on any type of ketogenic diet you need to modify the training routine to a low volume program or something like a whole body routine down 3x a week, etc. Originally Posted by njc

Good advice. I must say that I think of ketogenic diets as a last resort though. I see no reason to put yourself on that type of diet if you can cut the fat through a balanced diet. Originally Posted by LAM

Agreed. Originally Posted by CowPimp
