Targeted Ketogenic Diet
A targeted ketogenic diet places small fast carbs around workouts only—fueling hard sets while keeping the rest of the day low carb for ketosis between sessions.
A targeted ketogenic diet adds twenty to fifty grams fast carbs around training—fruit, rice cakes, dextrose—while keeping the rest of the day low carb to preserve ketosis between sessions. The goal is glycolytic fuel for the workout without full daily carb loads.
Timing matters: thirty to sixty minutes pre or sips intra on long sessions.
Common questions
-
Do targeted carbs kick you out of ketosis all day?
They spike glucose briefly around training; many return to ketones within hours if other meals stay low carb. Use for performance days, not every snack.
