چکیده
Background The effects of a LCKD on endurance performance has been investigated several times, and it has already received a review. For this type of activity, no decrements in performance are observed once the participants are adjusted to the diet. However, LCKD’s are yet to be investigated in a resistance training model. One study has examined strength in relation to a LCKD, finding no decrements, yet this study failed to incorporate a well-controlled training protocol.

متن کاملThe Ketogenic Diet and Sport: A Possible Marriage?
The ketogenic diet (KD) is used widely as a weight loss strategy and, more rarely, as therapy for some diseases.
