Having just turned 45 years of age, his degree of leanness while maintaining fitness, strength and high energy, is now better than when he was 25, which he largely attributes to following a low carb lifestyle. Olaf writes about his personal experience on metabolicperformance.net which includes doing a ten day fast and why he got leaner after stopping long distance running.
