Do some research on a "fast" dude... Ive read something from dr. carlon colker (who had that tv show with shaq last summer, and the obese kids) about fasting, you could try one cheat day, eat a little over your target calories, indulge, and the next day have a protien shake in the morning upon wakening, and nothing else for the day... I dont know how "fasts" work so like I said do some research and see if it has any merit. it couldnt hurt to try?

Forget it, new question, is HIIT effective for keto diets or counter-effective?

HIIT is always effective regardless of diet, but you have to go high intensity.

It has been proven in studies that during a low carbohydrate and high fat diet, the oxidation of fat is increased during exercise, especially cardio such as HIIT (more fat is burned). Additionally, fat is a much more highly concentrated source of energy than carbohydrates.

"A review by Hultman (1995) found that during a diet where carbs are restricted and a lot of fat is consumed, up to 70% of the energy requirement (even during high intensity activities) comes from the oxidation of fat (where during a high carbs diet, such activities would derive 80-90% of the energy from glycogen)." (Thibaudeau)

Hope this helps.
