How to start off the metabolic flexibility approach

[Scott Stevenson]

How will you quantify "faster more explosive?"

I'm not sure what you weigh, but whether that diet woudl work out for you would depend upon how your body responds to it. I'd base your current diet, changes in strength and body composition, how many training days vs. non-training days you have, etc.

You've been doing this (basketball and weights) for a while (few weeks) , I think so an even better starting point is to remedy (if needed) what your'e doing now.

(Either Putting your weight training on a non-basketball day, if at all possible would make more sense, unless you need a full day off to recover.)

IMO, an optimal solution here is going to require some consideration of detail that I get the sense you've not (yet) taken the time to look into (e.g., a weekly plan, quantification of goals and even a periodization scheme).
