Im pretty much staying at the same weight but dropping bf. Ive dropped 1% bf in 3 weeks. I dont have a problem with this but just want to see if it is normal to gain as much muscle as fat lost while cutting cals and being in ketosis?.

dude ur also on gear so yea its possible

the way i see is that its VERY hard to lose fat and gai muscle at the same time. Almost impossible. The ketosis diet makes it almost possible, and the addition of gear makes it very possible. Keep doing what youre doing

Keto diets are beautiful. Looks like Dave Palumbo there. Enjoy the recomp and maintenance of strength. If you were cutting calories with chicken, eggwhites, and rice it would probably be a different story. Good choice on the diet.

i love the diet so far.. i feel great from the moment i wake up to the second i fall asleep and suprisingly have plenty of energy in the gym. i love the fact that im not getting weak while trying to lose the fat. plus i love anpb so it feels like i am still eating sweets three times a day.

Do you do CARB UP days? Or just Keto throughout?

 

[crulexis]

And how much fat do you consume per day?

1% isnt much...and there is room for error that it might really be the same. I recommend totalling up your calories per day to be exact. Also more cardio.

It's quite possible to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time.. Especially if you're using gear.. Take in as much protein as you can, and slip in a fair bit of cardio... You won't perhaps see the changes overnight, but they will be happening..

I recently came back from injury and went from an ungainly 16% down to 8% whilst actually gaining about 4Kg of lean mass, and that was without any gear at all.. It was a nightmare mentally, but if you're strong enough and have the mental drive to push through those gym sessions, go for it!

This is not unusual. Stay on course.
