Low Carb and HIIT

[22 frets]

Does anyone here have experience with a low carb diet in conjunction with HIIT?
Theoretically a low carb diet should accentuate and increase your results, since the minimal carb intake already puts your body into a Ketosis/Lypolysis state.

I would think, however, that a possible major drawback is that it might be overdoing it, and that you may begin to burn protein (muscle) instead.

just take some of your carbs and protein pre workout

I'm not a big fan of low carb diets. I agree that you need to lower carbs if trying to lose bodyfat however I wouldn't lower the ratio below 25-30%.
In my opinion I would keep the ratio at 40/30/30 protein, carb. fat.
Just make sure all the carbs are good complex carbs. Your muscles need the carbs to replinish themselves.
