can u grow on a low carb- anabolic- style diet

[Max Expansion]

ive heard of high fat diets being good for preserving mass whilst cutting

but can a ckd, anabolic style high fat diet with carbs once a week pwo, actually be efficient at making u grow (especially when 'ON')

cheers

I followed the AD for close to a year. I was natty. I did not gain any "size", but I saw a favorable shift in body comp and I got a lot stronger. I was powerlifting at the time. I would consider the AD a good way to get lean. Not so much for mass gains.

I'm not a big fan of ketosis diets but you did say CKD
As Ive posted once before insulin is boosted by high proteins particularly whey protein. The issues is the fast release and absorption of amino acids. Another way to boost insulin is to use BCAA's I would use both if I'm on a low carb diet

I don't believe sugars are necessary , but I would try to get some complex carbs in there at some point
