Hey!! Today's video is about why I choose to keep carbs in my diet and I explain a little bit about why they work so well for me. Like I mention in the video, training and lifestyle can be different so it's worth spending some time exploring whether eating more carbs makes a difference and seeing what works for you (: Hope you're all having a wonderful week and thanks so much for watching ❤️❤️
wait are your eyes green? must be hazel/blue xD change by surroundings <3 so cool
I bulk on keto and cut on carbs because I have health issues and keto makes me feel amazing but hungry all the time so it makes me gain weight.
Healthy carbs are fine as long as you tolerate them, but if you have PCOS (1 every 5 women) like me or a lot of other issues keto will be better for you. Where most people get confused is that you probably won't lose any weight.
I've been vegetarian my whole life which is a carb heavy diet, and keto was rough on me. My period got very watery and actually hard to contain and I had memory loss issues that I don't think I ever recovered from. I've heard that if you do high carb you might need to do low fat and salt, maybe to reduce bloat. Is that true?
Yeah, how so much food can fit into so small body?
I was eating a lot when I was working out 3 times a week for 1 month, and I lost 1 kg. Right now I am on a strict diet without carbs. In 5 days I lost 3 kg. Looking forward to working out. 😀
I just started my fitness journey of getting stronger and I cannot wait to be able to do a workout like this!!
1. You do not need any carbs whatsoever as long as you have adequate amounts of animal fat.
2. Carbs are only used if you have no circulating fat. If your diet contains fat, eating carbs on top is very harmful. It activates the randle cycle – and sugar (from carbs) are trapped in your blood, because your cells take in fat and close themselves to carbs on a mixed macro diet. This leads to insulin spikes, eventually causing insulin resistance.
3. Burning fat is advantageous compared to carbs. With carbs, all is converted to sugar – and you get an excess. With fat, you only create the amount of sugar that you need. Carbs (sugars) also glycate your proteins, causing cellular damage.
4. But I agree, carbs help with power training (stan efferding), but not necessary for anyone else.
But yes, carbs is the most fattening macro.
I have 100 grams of carbs a day😨
If my workouts looked like that I could probably eat 3000+ carbs a day too.
I would look like a fool if you attempted that workout in the gym 😂😂😂
I usually think carbs gets confused with sugar. Not that sugar is bad, but in modern day sodas, deserts, cookies and all that have way to much sugar. If you cut out most processed sugar or at least be aware of it, it saves you a lot of sneaky calories during a week. Especially the drinks with me, I drank so many worthless calories. I dont really have issues with carbs in general. Not even sugar sometimes, need to have some chocolate from time to time. Just being aware of it means you can practice some discipline and control.
I love food too! This is so strange, I used to eat about 3000 calories per day, I was 176cm at 72kg. Then I started working out and restricting calories, I lost weight and now I am at 63kg. Then the quarantine happened and because I stayed at home all day, I started grazing and snacking again. I started to eat all that "unhealthy" food again, like I wouldn't resist pizza or fries if offered, ate croissants and macarons from my favourite bakery, started to eat candy again (I love chocolate!)… So I came back to my eating habits before weight loss and have been eating like that since… And I am still 63kg! I don't count calories as much, but I can say roughly I eat 3-4k calories on some days and sometimes I'll eat under 2k. I just eat when I'm hungry. Some days I am just not hungry. Some days I feel like eating lots. The only thing changed is that I am working out regularly. I don't know how to explain it… But what I know is that I feel very happy right now. I can eat when I want and what I want and not care about gaining weight. And I have so much fun working out!
Ive calorie restricted for weightloss and im not afraid of carbs, more fat than necessary i was though
I’m diabetic I can’t have carbs
Is it okay to eat good carbs and good fats? What if I just want to eat healthy food that tastes good? 😂 I’ve gone through every fad diet in my life and all sorts of bad eating habits… I’m so tired of it and just want to eat healthy and have energy for my boxing training…

I just started as eating less of whatever I'm eating
And then later slowly developed knowledge about every type of food from you 🙂
I still eat carbs at low amount but try to add protein to keep me full longer and give energy for my workout
I find it enjoyable just watching you work out… it's how I imagine a superhero would work out haha
I'm not on a low carb diet. I eat whole, nutritious carbs without limits. Bananas, sweet potatoes, oats, apples, brown rice, Ezekial bread, WAFFLES <3
My energy levels and exercise performance thank me for it.
you're beautiful. you look like debra morgan 🙂
As a type one diabetic, I appreciate how a low-carb diet cab reduce the amount of insulin I take and whatnot. I just wish people didn't flock to extremely strict keto diets (that I dont even follow) just for weight loss. Some diets aren't made for everyone, same way a gluten-free diet is good for someone with Celiac but could kill healthy gut bacteria for the average person.
I also tried Keto diet for 2 months . I think I it worked fine at first for weight loss. You are right , I got no strength for my training . And I had funny feeling around my heart, then I know it’s probably not healthy for me( plus, I had no refined, processed fatty food, all are in their original forms, so little cheese,no cream at all)
eventually eating high carbs can lead to diabetes yeast infections and weight gain… i used to eat a ton of carbs also as a runner that was when the athletic community thought that was what we were supposed to do (protein can convert into carbohydrate your body can make carbohydrates as needed without eating carbs)
But you don’t eat much veggies don’t you think?
I would eat a whole kingdom after such a workout
If I survived
When I first started to address my fitness, starting with my weight, I also thought I needed to cut carbs. This was back in October 2020. Later I’d realize it’s just CICO. And after calculating my calorie intake based on what I was eating, I realized I was only consuming 1400 calories a day. I was 205 lbs at the time! I was losing 5-6 lbs a week. It was very unhealthy.
Luckily, I have things a bit more figured out now. I eat 2200 calories a day and I’m 143lbs as of this morning. Staying active and having balance in my diet is serving me well. And YOU are a big reason why I have been able to get to this point. You may not realize it, but you help better and even save lives. Thank You.
I tried the reverse deadlift the other day and misjudged the clearance and almost kicked through the ceiling tiles at the gym. I'll have to figure something out!
