This is a place where you have to again be careful. Protein supplements like whey also can convert to glucose so I dont know. I haven't been lifting in 2 years. Just boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai and more of an effort for high intensity work... which keto is also great for. So i haven't really thought about it.
What I can tell you for sure is that both the understanding of Keto and athletics and weight lifting are changing radically with so many recent studies. There is a guy on Bodybuilding.com who runs the sports science lab at the University of Tampa (i think) who puts out a lot of videos based on his studies of these exact questions. They're all interesting to watch and it again really drives home the point that "conventional wisdom is usually nothing more than pooled ignorance" as his findings in the lab completely contradict anything that people commonly believe.
My personal view right now is that what you eat post workout will trump everything else through the day. Creatine is always great. BCAAs etc along with multi vitamins. Beyond that I don't sweat it too much. I've become more of a "listen to your body" kinda guy. Enough sleep. Enough water. Eating right after workout. (in ketosis you don't need to eat to "fuel" your workout).
as Dr Timothy Noakes (Central Governor Theory of Muscular Fatigue...) once said "no one ever told the Lion when or what to eat ,or when and how much water to drink"
