We are in a depleted state of muscle glycogen while on a ketogenic diet, so any excess glucose is going to refill muscle glycogen before refilling live glycogen, thus resulting in staying in ketosis.
Here is some more info on this:

I eat .8g per lbm every day and have never had trouble getting into ketosis. If i knock myself out due to a cheat meal, and hop right back on my macros the next day.. I am usually into ketosis and getting solid blood ketone readings within 23-26 hours.
However, I would probably consider myself as a 'fat-adapted' individual and that may play a part. I do believe if you eat between .8-1.2g per day, you will still have no trouble getting into ketosis.Current Workout Log: - 05-18-2017, 11:12 AM

Carbs are carbs, if you eat over the allotted amount 20-30g net a day, you'll be kicked out.
I follow a TKD, consuming 15g of high GI carbs pre workout. The goal of this is to promote post-workout glycogen synthesis. It does knock you out of ketosis temporarily for a short time period (sometimes instantly, sometimes a little delayed), but as glucose goes into the muscles and insulin begins to drop back down, ketosis will start again typically a few hours after your workout.Current Workout Log: -

Thanks everyone this is very helpful.
I am going to stick to .8 -1g of protein x LBM
174g Protein
116g fat
20g carbs
I have thrown in a zero carb protein shake after my workout and right before lunch and will throw in additional protein into dinner to hit the 174 target. Would 10-20 grams of protein be optimal to consume before lifting? This would break my fast early so not sure if it would help or not. - 05-18-2017, 11:52 AM
