I was, back when I was on a KD, but it took about a year for me to regain peak anaerobic capacity.
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
at 12 weeks i just got to the point where i could get my aerobic base back to where it was 12 weeks earlier but anaerobically i was nowhere near what i was 12 weeks earlier it took 18 months and i want to be clear this is 18 months without one day of deviation
it took 18 months and i want to be clear this is 18 months without one day of deviation i would end up staying on this diet for three years with one day of deviation my wife's birthday my ended up having a bunch of cake but um for three years to stay on this one and you know incredibly restrictive diet um it took half of that period of time just to get back to where i was anaerobically
So, uh that price point has come down, but now we have the Keto Mojo which is actually uh aligns more with our assays and and it does the glucose ketone index that we can talk about. Uh yeah, so I started doing that and I have to when I started it within I guess 5 years after starting the ketogenic diet, I probably rapidly lost 10 to 15 pounds and then my my exercise and my lifts tank too. Like I lost strength on bench press and not so much deadlift and squat. But I saw that but I didn't really care that much at the time.
