You need to be around 2000 cals per day (taken in).

You are burning around 2,500 cals after you consider exercise.

At this rate you lose 1 lb of fat and 1 lb of water per week.

You will do a 24 hour carb up...plan it accordingly. You can fit it all into one day if you do it right.

Anyway, you will gain anywhere from 1-5 lbs from this day (mostly from water and excess waste product). You will return to normal weight usually 2-3 days after you begin keto again and then lost an extra pound or so in the next 2-3 days after that.

On carb day you have to eat hard my friend...embrace it.

Hey this might be a long shot but do you know anything about patellar tendinitis?

I prefer doing "LITTLE" instead of "TABATA"

I honestly have to say the whole "maximum effort" for 10 seconds is really a bit much on the heart...it can get you up the 200 bpm range which is really not good.

the "LITTLE" method is 30-60 seconds of HARD effort, but maintaining a heart rate of no more than 175...this is much safer and just as beneficial cardio wise.

yes, how can I help you?

so i dont HAVE TO go over 2k when i workout / exercise? like i wont be doing my body any harm if i just stick at 2k period ?

Just wondering if you can recommend any help of any sort towards this. Already when to an sports specialist and he said too just get shoe inserts and wait and it will eventually heal. Been about 4-5 months since i was able to run. Started doing the elliptical last week every other day for 20-30 mins. Was fine but yesterday i had the same pain again. Called the dr and he said to do the same again. Was gonna order a patella tendon knee strap to see if that helps. Thanks for any info you can give me.

nvm
