Let’s jump into the 11th and 12th Week of our Keto diet with a Bulking Workout…

9th and 10th Week Review
In general, the keto bulking workout has been good this couple of weeks.
Even though I must say that I have not been 100% in keto due to the holidays. Instead of eating more I have eaten less, since saying no to some dishes makes me eat slower.
Weight changes
In these two weeks, I have reduced the workout volume, but I have increased the intensity quite a lot.
Consequently, I have lost way more calories than what I wanted, so my weight is at 83.9kg (only 100 more grams). However, since I have not followed the keto diet this value should not really be taken into account.
It is hard to review this month with all I have done: I travelled for a week and spent Christmas with some days out of keto, which is not what we have planned.
Glucose
I have had all kinds of numbers these weeks, some oven 160 after breaking the ketosis.
Moreover, I have noticed that even if you are in ketosis, the body will produce more glucose than usual with a hypercaloric diet, either from glycerol or gluconeogenesis. But also, the body is more unbalanced when I eat carbs for a few days until it goes back to ketosis.
Without running out of glycogen and doing high intensity exercise, the body increase the blood glucose much more. Consequently, it will not drop as much as it needs to after the workout, depending on the intensity and volume. Therefore, I have to use quick insulin each day in order to adjust everything properly.

We will go back to a 3 day full body routine with CrossFit as optional.

11th and 12th Week Diet
The diet is not 100% strict, you can change some dishes because you do not have time to make them. Just make sure that they are similar in terms of calories and always following the principles of a ketogenic diet.
I usually share what I eat in my Instagram stories.
This is what we have planned:
