If anything, I think my metabolism may have increased between moving to a low carb diet, regular running, and IF.

It’s kind of amazing.

Next up on my journey is likely adding weight lifting back to my exercise regime. This has only been omitted historically due to lack of time. But I’m thinking high intensity, low rep lifts to build muscle strength every other/third day. I may supplement with carbs (starches, no sugars or grains) on weight days.

The missus and I started running about 4 months ago. And we try to do "Body Pump" 2-3 days a week. It's probably not exactly what you're talking about, but it's low weight, high rep for about an hour at a time.
