A lot of natural (steroid free) bodybuilders question the efficacy of a ketogenic diet for keeping muscle. Having used Dave Palumbo's ketogenic diet in the past few weeks, I believe that as long as strength is maintained and protein is high, muscle loss will be minimal. I believe that most people aren't used to the "flat" feeling that is a lack of glycogen in the muscle tissue.
To further substantiate this claim, I found this meta-analysis while browsing the internet. It's a great read.
