Do you know about KETO SAVAGE founder Robert??

What is his story? "Prior to finding keto, I had followed a traditional, "bro-dieting" approach to my nutrition. I would eat every 2 or 3 hours on the clock and I would count my calories and my macros to the gram. I followed this protocol for the first 5 years of my bodybuilding career. I experienced "success" in the sport in the sense of building muscle and being able to get incredibly lean for a competition but that success was short-lived and it was far from sustainable. I developed serious eating disorders and had a terrible relationship with food. Hormones would take a drastic nose dive with every prep I went through and mental clarity was all but lost. I was the poster boy example of a stereotypical bodybuilder…. Chicken and rice at every meal. Disordered eating. Zombie mode towards the latter half of my prep. Massive drops in strength and stamina. Zero sex drive. Unhealthy surges in body fat post-show followed by the negative cycle all over again. I was definitely not the ideal picture of health and I had no idea where to turn.

How did Robert get into Keto?

"In 2014 I started dabbling with "Carb-Backloading". A dieting approach in which you remove all carbs during the day and only consume meats and veggies. At night, you are supposed to consume a large bolus of high glycemic carbohydrates to intentionally spike insulin and provide fuel for the following day's workout. This was all fine and dandy but I noticed that I would experience some GI distress on the days following the massive carb ups. I decided to avoid them entirely and just see what happened. Lo and behold I felt better in the absence of carbohydrates. I didn't know it at the time but this was my first foray into the keto diet. In 2014 there was zero hype about the ketogenic diet. There were no food products, no podcasts, no books, no NOTHING. I was in unchartered territory but I was experiencing benefits and decided to run with it. I noticed an almost immediate benefit to my relationship with food and my battle with disordered eating started to subside. That alone was reason enough for me to stick with it. That wasn't all that changed though. I experienced a drastic improvement in my gym performance. My inflammation disappeared and my recovery time was cut in half. My energy, both physically and mentally, shot through the roof! My strength steadily improved and it was much much easier to maintain a lean physique without all the chronic calorie counting. I didn't know exactly what I was doing but I knew I was onto something!" - Read the rest on https://ketosavage.com/about/

Remember the definition of INSANITY is doing the same thing over an over again expecting different resutls. What are you doing different today? How about prioritizing protein and lifting heavy weights to build/maintain muscle as you age? Life is not a race. It is a Journey.
