“Although low glycogen levels can theoretically compromise muscular force production and thus resistance training performance, the body of literature to date has not consistently demonstrated this effect.202 The majority of studies examining the effect of ketogenic diets on resistance training have shown performance on par with control/non-ketogenic conditions.224 Similar lifting strength on ketogenic diets compared to conventional control diets has been demonstrated in resistance-trained subjects at moderate225 and near-maximal to maximal loading.132,193,194 Thus, while ketogenic diets might be suboptimal for maximizing muscle gain and preservation, this disadvantage is not apparent for strength goals.”

“A classic example in the nutritional realm is the age-related difference in muscle protein synthesis (MPS) in response to protein feeding. Subjects in their seventies require nearly double the protein dose in a single meal to maximally stimulate MPS compared to subjects in their twenties.40”
