In this video, we’re going to take a look at 3 muscle-building myths with Thomas DeLauer.

•Myth #1: We need carbs to build muscle

When your carb intake is too high, your body doesn’t properly respond to insulin. Your body then has to produce higher amounts of insulin to keep your blood sugar levels within the normal range. This can be very hard on your body and make muscle building more difficult.

Ketones preserve your muscles, protecting them from being broken down. The only way to lose muscle on a keto diet is if your protein intake is too high or if you go too long without eating. The best way to preserve muscle is to keep your fat intake high and your carb intake low.

•Myth #2: We need lots of protein to build muscle

On average, our body needs 3 to 6 ounces of protein with each meal, or 5 to 7 grams of protein per pound of body weight each day. Too much protein can trigger gluconeogenesis and cause your body to turn excess protein into sugar. High protein intake can also negatively affect your kidneys.

When doing keto and intermittent fasting, you spike human growth hormone. This hormone preserves your muscles and protects against the loss of protein.

•Myth #3: Building more muscle will burn more fat

Building muscle can increase your ability to burn more calories, but that doesn’t mean you will burn fat. To burn calories from fat, it's important to lower your carb intake and eating frequency. Intermittent fasting is an excellent tool to adapt your body to fat burning.
