Keto + weights worked for me. You don't have the same ability to restore your glycogen stores as with a high carb diet, so you have to do several short bursts of exercise spread throughout the day, but a high protein diet is pretty good otherwise. Since you need to do multiple workouts, it's really only suitable for a home gym though (unless you stick to bodyweight exercises). Personally I find six 5 minute sessions a day gives you a pretty solid workout. Plus keto food can be really delicious. I lost about 15kg and put on a fair bit of muscle at the same time. The research I've seen doesn't show any advantage to doing a single workout vs. several shorter workouts if you can work that into your lifestyle.
It’s pretty hard for me to get the gym equipment in my home..
