The Ketogenic diet is a fat-based diet. You don’t eat any carbs and instead replace those macros with avocado, nuts, olive oils, and other healthy fat sources. The key here is “healthy fat sources”, not bacon, cheeses, sausages, etc. Even though you are eating fats you want to ensure you are putting good, healing nutrients in your body.

Keto Muscle-Growth Key 1: Focus On High-Quality Proteins
A high-quality protein source is one that contains all nine essential amino acids and is specifically rich in the key muscle-building amino acid leucine. Lower-quality proteins, like grains and legumes, aren’t usually on the menu for the ketogenic diet anyway. And the animal-based protein sources that are typical to keto are all fantastic sources of complete, high-quality protein.

Solid choices include eggs (both yolk and white), whole-fat milk, Greek yogurt, cheese, chicken, turkey, pork, beef, lamb, fish, and seafood.

As much as possible, get your protein from these sources, and you’ll give your body more of the amino acids it needs to preserve and add lean muscle mass.

Keto Muscle-Growth Key 2: Nail Your Protein Timing
Research in recent years has reinforced the idea that it’s not just how much protein you eat in a day that matters, but also when you eat it—or more specifically, how you space it out across the day.

To receive maximal benefit from the protein you consume, you should eat a specific amount of high-quality protein—enough to reach what is known as the “leucine threshold”—every few hours. And doing so consistently throughout the day, day after day and week after week, will yield some fantastic muscle-growth results—assuming you’re also in an overall calorie surplus and training hard consistently.
