The best way to gain strong muscles is to consume more calories in the form of lean proteins. This option is difficult to maintain unless to include a resistance training exercise program.
Remain on Low Carb but not on Keto When you use the keto diet to lose weight, your carbohydrate restrictions are fairly strict. You can still maintain your weight with a low carb diet, but not as rigid as keto. There are many healthy beans and legumes you can enjoy by adding a few more carbs to your diet. How much more carbs is very individual, because every body is different. Add a few cups of beans, lentils, or another serving of carrots to your diet each week and see how your body reacts. If you continue to maintain your goal weight, you’re on the right track. Add 10 grams of carbohydrates a week until you are satisfied with the results. The advantage of this option is that it allows you to eat good, healthy foods that were off limits on the keto diet. Having a greater variety of foods from which to choose will make it easier to maintain your weight. Page | 92
