Great training! I don't doubt that ketones have benefit, but I believe to keep talking about such this much you're either getting placebo/mental benefits of expecting more (aka mind power makes a huge difference) or you're sponsored because there's no way something is going to make that huge of a difference that immediately. Besides, we know the brain and body loves to run off of glucose, and for strength intensive purposes we need glucose to perform at peak strength... lots of people who switch to a keto diet wind up losing max strength output and ketosis only happens after being depleted... I think it'd be much easier to consume some simple carbs like a gatorade or sugary drink during the workout to keep topped off than to rely on ketones.

[@halfnattyboomer354]

Mm having high ketone levels while well sated isn't normal for the body. There could be something to it with regard to CNS output but who knows, unless some can explain that one mechanistically I'd put it in the heavily fringe area of science based training.

[@macgyvervanschwartzenstall4662]

Our brain does not use ketones at rest. Our brain can use ketones in certain states, but glucose is the primary fuel for our brain. Look at CSF--it doesn't have a set amount of ketones, but the glucose levels are pretty darn stable across people. If I was a betting man, I would bet there is a weak signal from ketones, probably related to the sympathetic nervous system, which will fire up gluconeogenesis, but it is probably really weak relative to to the stimulation of glucose. Just an educated guess, probably a G-protein coupled receptor or something nerdy that gets shut off by normal glucose levels.

On the topic you said of bracing at the top of the deadlift before going down for the next rep instead of bracing once you're down: I'm glad to hear that because it's what I do, and I do better on reps when I lower the weight controlled instead of slamming it and having to brace again.

[@JDirom]

I never thought Ketones would be beneficial to weight training. Reason being the body typically burns carbohydrates to fuel muscles when you’re active. Ketone supplements can help an athlete consuming carbohydrates last longer during an activity without having to re-fuel. That is 100% beneficial to endurance athletes, who have to consume calories in order to preform firing an activity. However, a strength and power athlete (sprinters, football players) will typically experience a decrease in performance due to the difference in energy systems being used, as the body typically functions better when it’s burning carbohydrates, especially for shorter periods of activity. Military will use it as on the battlefield soldiers may benefit from not burning carbohydrates in the same manner as endurance athletes. Anyways, enjoyed your video very awesome to watch, as you are one incredibly powerful individual. Truly impressive!

[@xaviermitchell578]

congratz on the big pr, your deadlift is looking really strong 💪

[@OMGshinyobject]

No. Glycolysis will always take preference over entry into the TCA cycle via ketone pathway. Studies that show these effects are performed on people who are in ketosis to force the ketone pathway. If you are eating carbs dietary ketones are a waste.

As long as you remain hydrated, you won't necessarily need ketones or if you stick to a well rounded diet. When you're dehydrated, you can see ketones being passed through urine. Also, if I remember correctly, ketones in urine is a sign of protein and carbohydrate breakdown. Its been a minute since college though. However, as far as its effectiveness through supplementation, I think there needs to be more research on them before I would spend the money.

Three most important things in life by order; ketones, freedom, supporting people.

[@michaels.2331]

My understanding of ketones is that they are used in the citric acid cycle during aerobic respiration. It is also my understanding that the central nervous system can only use glucose for energy. Therefore, taking endogenous ketones can spare glucose and fat breakdown. That’s assuming that the ketones you take make it inside of your cells and can be converted to acetyl-CoA.

While watching this video, I actually started to think am I missing out on not using ketones. It turns out the group with ketones had more calories. I’m not saying they don’t work, but it’s not anything I have ever heard any lifter talk about. If they do work, it would likely be for endurance and not 2 rep max deadlifts.

Do you do another "back day"? Is this style training, heavy deads and pendlay rows sufficient for overall mass? I ask because as I get older recovery becomes an issue and my genetics sucks.

But if i can find something where i can knock out a few additional assistance exercises and continue to progress in strength and size over time ("RAW THOUGH") that would be great

[@m4yd0g]

The results of the referenced study are strange. It seems the big effect is that the control group was operating in a caloric deficit whereas the KE(tone) group increased caloric intake via mostly carbs. Is the improved performance due to the increased carbs and the KE had little effect? The paper appears to minimize this difference and attributes the blunting of overreaching to KE instead of the overall increase in dietary calories; I am skeptical. They make a lot of assumptions in the discussion at the end. Perhaps an academic can review and chime in. In the end, it is only one study. My limited googling suggests that results are mixed on supplementation. Most studies appear to be in relation to longer duration / endurance performance vs. short duration intense exercise.

100% noted. I personally love ketones and you can do the math that I don’t need money from sponsorship that I don’t believe in. It helps me massively on a cognitive and focus level. Up to 80% of the fuel for your brain is ketones and I find a massive difference in brain fog during and after workouts. I 100% understand your point on making it too much of a focal point, but character attacks aren’t welcome. I’ll make sure to strike the balance better in the future. As always, thank you for your support

I would need to see the studies on these ketone supplements. From all the ones I've seen in the past, ketone supplements aren't effective unless you're in a state where you've exhausted your body's carb supply or fasting.

[@sebastianstrand3201]

how many ketone bottles do you take before each workout?

HOOPER DA BEST !

Those bottles are like $4.50-$5 each for a questionable impact. Don't get ripped off kids. My guy here just casually drinking almost $20 of this stuff for a single session.

Rogue or Eleiko needs to sponsor Mitch with some competition collars.

What peptides do you take?, is there a benefit for using bpc even when your not injured?

He’s made several videos on this already.
