Step 1: Initial baseline test. Duration: 5-10 days
Spend atleast one week performing as many baseline tests as possible. Performing multiple tests will make it easier too measure the level of adaptation in

Link too Macro calc Link too Micro calc
Read moreStep 3: Initial Keto Adaptation(IKA). Duration: 30-60 day
Use the calculator too assess your individual adaptation time
Read moreIKA day 2-3: Glycogen stores depleted
Normal brain function should have depleted glycogen stores. First ketone production too support brain function begins. Energy for physical activity is low.
Read moreIKA day 5-7: First side effects
Increased heat productions and sweating during exercise – Initially producing a lot of heat from oxidizing fat Sweat starts too smell slighlt like acetone Urine
Read moreIKA day 10-12: Energy for low intensity training returns
Ketone production continues too increase Utilization of ketones increases, but still loosing the majority of it through the urine.
Read moreIKA day 10-30: Minor glycogen replenishment begins
Gluconeogenesis starts replenishing glycogen stores Strength training becomes easier Intervall training is still weak without targeted keto
Read moreIKA day 30-60: Reduced side effects, increased performance
The body becomes for efficient at oxidizing fat which decreases heat production and sweating. A big increase in ketone utilization, which reduces both the smell
Read moreStep 4: New baseline tests
Perform the same baseline tests again, without any carbohydrate inntake In order for the initial Keto Adaptation phase too be complete you must atleast have
Read moreStep 5: Advanced Keto Adaptation (AKA). Duration: 200-400 days
AKA day 20-50: Side effects mostly gone, performance increasing
All early side effects from switching too ketones should be gone This is the point when you may start too feel that low intensity aerobic
Read moreAKA day 50-100: Start implementing fasting for increased HGH, ketone production and recovery
100 days into Advanced Keto Adaptation, you should be able too utilize ketones, and produce glycogen through gluconeogenesis at a high enough rate too be
