I have studied this for some time now and am running into a fuzzy area. I have done the 7 day depletion and then continued to read through other research ( I am a chiropractor with a focus on fitness and nutrition) more in depth on ketosis. It seems like for us to back load we should be in a deeper state of ketosis or we would just be adding more glycogen storage on top of fat that is already there. I have ketone sticks and I can go 7 to 10 days and get into small ketosis, where I feel like to cycle in and out we should get into deep ketosis for a 24 hours period before carb loading. Can someone please let me know if I am over thinking this? I am one that gets “scared” to be carb loading when I still have body fat to lose and am not getting into ketosis
Thank you!
