This is kind of interesting.

From what I know of keto, you still can't consume more 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight, though. That's a deal-breaker for anybody who wants to build or maintain muscle longterm.

Short-term dieting is fine. Lots of bodybuilders still do keto in short periods to get shredded.


Most of them that I know do carb-cycling, though I don't really ask around much. On youtube channels they seem mostly into intermittent fasting with short periods of keto diet.

This is only technically true. There are metabolic pathways that will eventually turn those things into fat building blocks but you can ignore them for anything but fringe cases.

Interesting pros and cons.

I wonder what happens if you do both?

In particular, there would be no way to gain muscle if what you are saying is true. To gain about 20 lbs of muscles I had to eat a calorie surplus. To burn off fat, I had to maintain a calorie deficit.

It's not that I rule out the possibility of a magic diet that will allow you to lose weight without a calorie deficit, I am simply strongly skeptical of it.
