There is some evidence that a keto diet depletes potassium. Do you recommend any amount respect sodium intake? Is there a easy way for balancing them?
Thanks

Actually a rather complete study of long-term ketogenic eating (using individuals who have been living on this diet for years) indicate not deficit in potassium.
Hello Coach Thibaudeau,
I hope the new year treats you well!!! I have heard some buzz recently over a water filtering system called Kangen Water. This system supposedly makes water more alkalinic, removes toxins, and creates a negative ORP via electrolysis. They also state on their website that the anti-oxidant powers of the water surpass any food or vitamin supplement. Obviously I take this info with a grain of salt could be a marketing scheme for all I know but, who could not benefit from a more alkalinized environment…
So, my question is have you heard about this filtering process and/or company? I thought it was interesting and was curious on your take. Thanks for your time!!!(Link Below)
Coach,
Do you believe that training chest/triceps together, and back/biceps together, is better for hypertrophy than chest/back, and an arms day?
Thanks
Hey all, I’m pretty sure Thib’s too modest to tell you about his newest product, so let me tell you about it.

Hi CT,
I know from some previous posts that for a lean person trying to get shredded you tend to recommend a targeted carbs approach (i.e., only ingest carbs during and post-workout). Any suggestions as to the macronutrient split / amounts per lb of body weight? And presumably on non-workout days no carbs should be ingested at all?
Thanks very much,
MP

CT,
just quickly, ‘body transformation’ can be a pretty general term - is the primary focus of this product muscle gain, fat loss, combination of both?
Thib,
In terms of the initial setup and subsequent lifting technique, what are the main differences between a deadlift and the 1st pull of an Olympic lift?
Hey CT,
I’m in a bit of a spot. I’m a rugby player with an arthritic ankle and knee on its way out(all injuries from a car accident in 2006). I was wondering if you had any advice on what to do for conditioning since running miles is painful. I can tolerate practice and my adreniline is too high to feel anyhthing during a match. Even if you don’t answer thanks for the stuf you’ve wrote it’s changed the way I view strength training.
Coach Thibs,
I bought your 12-week fat-loss plan, and I have a question regarding the diet portion. When the 12 week period is over, do you repeat the four phases of the diet or is it time to switch to a new diet?
I’m proud to support you by purchasing a product of yours, considering all of the free info you share on this site.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
Hi Thib,
During the night, I wake up several times… I guess I have not so deep sleep. Ive seen that ZMA would deeper it.
What do you think? If so, how much and what time?
Thanks from Brasil

If you are not deficient in zinc or magnesium, ZMA will not help that much. It’s only a mineral supplement, not a sleep aid. Magnesium is a good muscle relaxant, but it is nothing magical in that regard.
Z12 would be better

Never diet for longer than 12 weeks. If after 12 weeks of dieting you have not reached the condition you desire, take a few weeks off from the diet… not eating junk, but increasing your food intake. Then, after 2-3 weeks you can resume dieting. I would skip the first two weeks of the diet and start off at the diet for week 3

It depends on the type of deadlift.
In the powerlifting-style deadlift the hips are generally higher than in the starting position of a clean or snatch. In the olympic lifts the shoulders are normally above or even in front of the bar while in a powerlifting deadlift the shoulders are slightly behind the bar.
Hello, if your bored you may like to pop into this thread, about your new e-book.
Hey, Christian.
Which books would you recommend to an aspiring strength coach?
I’m studying physio therapy, but I would like to get a second degree in exercise sciences.
The second degree will have to wait 1-2 years, but I would like to get started with basics now so that I can start experimenting with theory with some of my clients who want to get in shape.
Thanks!
Coach,
Could you (or anyone else) post a pic or description of DB Thrusters. I see I have them coming up this weekend on your new Get Jacked program but am not familiar with them. Thanks.

Skinny guy, but the motion is correct.
Coach,
Would you recommend carb cycling (as outlined in your “Carb Cycling Codex”) for someone who is starting at a high % of bodyfat, if the individual is not losing a significant amount of bf on a simple low-carb diet and is showing hypothyroid symptoms such as low body temperature?
