i'm currently on a ckd and am doing 40 min cardio on non weight training days and 20 min cardio post weights. the last week i can't make it to 40 min. i start to get light headed and weak. when i do the 40 min of cardio it's usually 3 hrs after a meal.i take bcaa's,glutamine,and l-carnitine immediately before.and i'm currently on prop/winny/ t-3 75mcg/ clen 180 mcg. i've dropped my calories slightly. protein 330-375 grms, carbs 35grms post weights only, fats 40-50 grms of healthy fats. roughly 1800 calories. any thoughts or ideas?

up the healthy fats while keeping everything else the same. You might try swapping out an ECA stack for the clen, too.

i just started to see my best results when i dropped the fats from 80 grms to what they are at now, but i might have to up them a tad.

u get light headed b/c your blood sugar is getting really low. probably sweating like crazy and look nice and pale when you get off the treadmill too? i used to get the same way last spring when i was doing cardio on CKD. i started brining an apple with me (i've heard fruit isnt the best thing on CKD since it replenishes liver glycogen) to eat after the treadmill so i could make it home with no problems. i didn't seem to have any problem staying in keto, but it gave me just the boost i needed to get over the light headedness feeling.

yeah those are the exact symptoms.i bring a whey shake with me to hold me over till i get home. i was just annoyed that i can't continue with my cardio, once i get that feeling i stop cause i don't want to over do it
