Amazingly.... I agree.

I find having carbs and doing cardio looks better, feels bettwr,and is better mentally that no\low carb.
not to mention the workouts are sick

Yeah plus you actually get a pump.

Good luck getting a pump after 2 weeks of keto.

much better workouts. More energy, feel better, better mind/muscle connection, better pumps..... I feel like low carb is like driving your car with the fuel system restricted... yeah, youll get there, and youll be the most fuel efficient, but the car isnt running well and is suffering as a result of the lack of fuel.

Exactly. You'll save gas but it'll take you much longer to get to the end of the road. And you might hit a few potholes by then and spin out over a bridge ;-)

I find the low/medium carb, very high protein works best for me. And my "cardio" consists of more like "conditioning" work like tabatas (outed) or HIIT. Weights x 4/week, conditioning x 2/week.

Same. But a high carb day is needed for a particularly heavy-duty leg or back day. After that I go low again for 3-4 days. And my "low" days resemble a high Keto day. I find manipulating your body's glycogen intake stimulates fat-burning more than keeping it perpetually deprived of it.

Cardio, I've tried two methods: The extreme high difficulty kind for 30-45 minutes, with calorie readouts of approx. 700-900 per workout
and the low-intensity, "classic" bodybuilder method of 45-60 minutes with an HR in the 110-120 zone and gradual sweating.

I find both work well but the latter allows me more energy for my later muscle workout. On the other hand, the results are much slower. Nothing gets you shredded as fast as busting out on the stairclimber for a high-energy workout.

Seriously, creatine, pre workout and cyclic keto. 1 hour of cardio a week. No bullshit. Thanks for the compliment though.

Well most people with that level of conditioning who are natural don't have big arms or much of a chest or back
unless they're black

You look great.

However cardio works the most important muscle of all.....the heart.

Yes....I am well aware that weight lifting can work the heart as well.....but rarely to the same extent as just plain ol cardio.
