Welcome to the Muscle Intelligence Podcast.

Live your greatest life and your greatest body.

You know, Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome to the muscle intelligence Podcast. I am your host, Ben Pekolsky.

Today we're going to dive into something that's been a focus of mine for a large part for five to six years, this well-known concept of ketogenic dieting and maybe more accurately, how to perform really,

really well on a ketogenic diet. So for most of you that don't know, I don't advocate myself

as a ketogenic dieter. I don't promote myself as someone who does a ketogenic diet, but I'd say I'm in a

ketogenic diet about 90% of the time. I really believe for overall health benefits and longevity,

a ketogenic diet is probably something that you want to have in your tool belt. And I don't

think it's something that I'm dogmatic about. And I don't say that, you know, I only eat keto because I don't. If I feel like I need some carbohydrates, if I feel like I want some berries, if I train really hard,

I had some carbohydrates in.

My objective is performance.

My objective is body composition.

My objective is longevity and feeling great and mentally having my brain working all the time, which is why I think

a ketogenic diet is extremely useful as a tool.

Now, so today's guest, Dr. Ryan Lowry joins me.

I've known Ryan for probably about the same amount of time that I've been studying this

ketogenic diet, and Ryan's been diving in deep.

He is the owner of ketogenic.com and absolutely one of the world's

authorities on ketogenic dieting. And today we're going to talk everything about ketogenic dieting

and performance. How should you be training? How should you be eating? Are there any special

considerations around ketogenic dieting and how you need to adjust your training to fit ketogenic dieting.

So Ryan's been doing this stuff for a long time, first working in the lab at the University of Tampa.
