Consistency is key in everything we do.

Training in the gym: The most optimal workout imaginable won\u2019t do a thing if you only get around to it once every two weeks.

Sleep: A solid 8 hours of shut eye every night beats 10 hours one night, 6 the next.

Learning a new skill: Practice for an hour each day and you\u2019ll become a master. Spend twelve hours one time and never again, and you\u2019ll remain a beginner.

The same is true for nutrition. A consistent, reliable way of eating\u2014especially with a diet like keto, where extended consistency actually builds new fat-burning mitochondria and establishes habits\u2014tends to produce the best results.

But what if you wanted to be a little less consistent? What if you wanted to cycle between Primal and keto? Is such a thing even possible?

Yes. Just make sure you do it right\u2014and for the right reasons.
