Purely anecdotal but when I am in ketosis I can do cardio forever. I have done 2 hour elliptical sessions no problem, this is not something I can do when I am eating carbs. There is definitely a huge advantage to ketosis for me relating to cardio.

i was running 6 days/week, 30-35 mi/week, before transitioning to low carb (i stopped to free up time for poker). but only running 1-2 times a week now, i haven't seen a huge drop in performance.

before, on a high carb diet, i'd go through fit and lazy stages as well. but during the lazy stages, i'd feel like i was dying just trying to run 2 miles. now i can tick off 4-8 miles if i have the time without superhuman effort. but i also changed my running form last year (barefoot training), so that may have something to do with it also.

I am going back to running aswel!
4 times a week weight lifting + some running..... and a good diet = Feeling Bombasticcc

I only run indoors

I only run indoors

I used to be like that, now I can't run indoors at all - I don't know when it changed but once the switch flips, running outside becomes one of the best feelings you can have.

I believe that, its also better to run indoor then outdoor. and you see nature (I only see beautiful women )

but yes, I would prefer to run outside too.

in gym, treadmill runs you.

mweh, I think that is a bit to much of a statement.
For me, I run indoor because I like the stability of the treadmill.

haha For people with back anckles and knees that used to have lots of injurys, its better to run on a more stable ground like a treadmill then outside where there are laying rocks, and all other kind of things that you can step on while running.

from the article: they are encouraged to exercise and build up their strength by being given their own gym equipment

does that mean it's alive? how do you "encourage" a piece of meat to exercise?

Seriously the most disgusting thing ever. Worse than the mystery meat burgers they probably still serve in grade school. If vegans try to force people to eat this garbage, we gonna have some issues.

hey now, don't knock it til you try it.

but all i wanna know is how do i kill it? like if it starts trying to exercise on me.

Trying to stick to a diet of only meats, fruits, and vegetables as best I can for the next couple months. We'll see how it goes.....

How do you know it can be killed? It might just start growing into a cow fetus in your stomach.

scary thought. but if it's stem cells of muscles, it could just as well turn someone into a superhero with cow powers.

artificial meat... FOR SCIENCE!

That artificial meat sounds awesome. I'm no vegan but go on youtube and tell me factory farming isn't more disgusting than lab grown meat.
