Ghoulia, do a search on TKD (targeted ketogenic diet). From what you've described, I agree with GSD--you would most likely benefit from some carbs pre-workout. And NOT fruit carbs, or sugar carbs--you want to refill muscle glycogen--starchy carbs for the win.

Gost, I agree with alot of what you write, but not about your stance on carbs. I mean, you're only telling half the story. Yah, carbs in the system will temporarily halt fat burning, BUT if you are weight training, this is the time to take carbs as they will go to the muscles. If one is low carb adapted, they will go back to burning fat for fuel quickly after exercising. If one is a bit worried about getting back into ketosis, a little bit of cardio post lifting will work wonders towards that end.

As for GSD and her 300gC refeeds....Gost, you know about leptin and such, right?
