well, I guess you can call them whenever you want… BUT… athletes that had been on ketogenic diet for a month have been showing to have a crossover point at 85% of VO2 max and fat anabolism rate of 1.6 g per minute.

I sent you a link to an actual study that demonstrates that and I could send more similar ones… Where does the information come from, for your chart? Do you know how they we eating off the bike. Clearly, from link I posted, what you eat off the bike has a pronounced and significant affect on fat metabolism on the bike!
