Yeah, but the point I'm making is that at 235, the startup diet for you is roughly 4,100 cals per day.. Which is what I'm eating. I should be closer to 4,800 cals.. But the reason why I'm not starting so high is because I was already accustomed to eating high protein/high fats.
The problem that happends with keto dieting is a reduction in performance in the gym. The lower the cals, the worse it's gonna get. Now, if you feel like you can handle a decline in the gym at 3,000 cals, then that's fine. But from what I've seen, most people hit the panic button within the first month when they cannot beat last week's numbers, blame the concepts of the diet, and abandon ship!
I've accomidated for the decline by incorperating much higher rest pause ranges as well as dropping the volume more. This should allow me to continue my progressions so long as cals are still kept high.
If you're choosing more volume, then I'd still be keeping cals really high. Probably a lot higher than what I'm eating now. You will most likely be strong at the onset of the training, but sooner or later during your sets, you'll hit a decline.
Just keep that in mind, and adjust accordingly.
