But if someone works out for over a year, those things become useless and muscles will need much more stimulus than that.

    Bodybuilders are doing videos how they do 12 or more reps and people think thats the way to go, but they don't show the amount of drugs they take along with that. For most normal people, doing regular diets, who train 3-6 times per week, small amount of reps is the best. Old school pyramid was working 50 years ago and is still working now...increase weight with each set, until only 1-2 reps are possible. Easy and effective.

    I'm not sure where you get your research or whether it's just an opinion (which I think is the case) - as said before my son is doing it and there is noticeable growth and shaping of his upper body. I'm not sure why suddenly this is now in question but I guess that's the way people today think - don't trust science - don't trust anything and there is always a catch. That all being said - my son doesn't do drugs nor others that I know who do the same - it's natural and works.

            If not, give it a try for a few weeks. You'll be able to workout for longer after a few weeks in ketosis, you'll have a lot more energy
            Yup. I had also gone a week without eating anything when I was full keto. I did keto for 2 years

                Fair play

                I've done about 10 years on and off keto, I can do it for 3/6 months max. I wish I could do keto constantly but I don't have the discipline and after 6 months I want some carbs in my diet

                I think it's like everything, it's about finding what works best for you and your body

                I always find it strange when different tribes online start arguing amongst themselves, keto vs carnivor diet vegan vs vegetarian etc

                I mean for fuck sake, anyone interested in prolonging their health and self improvement are in the minority and basically on the same page/have the same goals

                    Ever since keto, I realized carbs don’t provide the energy claimed. I try to keep carbs to only breakfast and pre workout if bulking

                        Yep it spikes blood sugar too much

                        Humans are not built for eating lots of sugar & refined carbs all day every day

                            Man, a research where they follow a few people with different training experiences and different lifestyles IS NOT science. Or did they study identical human beings locked up in a lab, doing exactly the same every day, except the training they did, the number of reps?

                            I gave you stats from a proper study...done in the army...where all the people can be easily controlled as they all live together, they do the same training, they eat the same food and they were measured every day, all their hormone levels. Those are numbers that can actually tell us something...like a proper scientific experiment.

                            Your son, if he is between 15-25 years old can grow muscle just from looking at a barbell, thats how high his testosterone levels are.
