I have a question. Lets say you finish you're weight training session. Would it be beneficial to do just a bit (10-15 minutes) of cardio, at about 60-70% of your heart rate? I ask this because your body will already have used up its sugars and will have no choice but to target the fat cells. Or am I just talking broscience :p
If you are only getting your carbs pre and post workout then you have to make up a difference in calories through fat and protein correct? Primarily from fat if you are using a ketogenic style diet right?
I tried a keto diet with weekend carb loading but couldn't digest all the fat from olive oil I took in to make up the caloric difference. If I eat carbs pre and post workout on a cut, do I have to increase fat for the caloric needs?
Lactat (Cori-Zyklus), glucogene Aminoacides (Glucose-Alanin-Zyklus), and Glycerin can be used for Gluconeogenese. Gluconeogenese out of Acetyl-CoA is not possible and it is not possible to use fatty acids and keton bodies for Gluconeogenese. Finally it is all about having enough ATP!
G'day Mate, I appreciate your efforts but every single biochemistry book states that we do not have enzymes for turning fat into glucose. That also would not make sense from biological point of view. When there is not enough glucose liver increases beta oxidation and we can produce keton bodies which can be used as glucose replacement for a limited time. Cheers .. John
The use of proteins or fat for "gluconeogenesis" requires more energy than the more straightforward metabolism of starches/sugar into glucose.Insulin is a protein itself. When you raid your fat cells for glucose stores, insulin regulates how much fat is converted to fatty acids and then transports these fatty acids to your cells. Once it reaches your cells, the insulin releases the fatty acids, which are then converted into glucose in another biochemical reaction that also releases energy.
I must say this make perfect sense. My husband is a marathoner and is very thin. You would think his thighs and calves would be huge from all that running but they are very skinny. I always thought that was odd. Now I know. Also, can toxins be cleaned really from our bodies once they've moved in? And how difficult can that be? Does it take long to do?
@peacefulruler97 Unfortunately all toxins cannot be removed as we come in contact with over 2.2 million different types on a daily basis. We can make ourselves cleaner and healthier by eating healthy, using natural producst on our bodies and exercising correctly but we can never clean ourselves completely (unless you want to live in a bubble lol )

Its a good combo. I do the same (but without flax). I add my protein into the oatmeal. Do you do the same?

my breakfast is 3/4 cup of oatmeal with honey and 2 scoops of protein and flax
