Monday Macro Tip:
Macro based nutrition allows anyone to create a nutrition plan that fits their goals, lifestyle, and activity. Not only that, but a macro-based plan lets you choose any foods you like if they fit within your plan. Don’t like salad? No problem! Get your carbs from other vegetables. Prefer steak over chicken? That works, too, if you eat your planned amount of protein for the day. You can even have your favorite indulgences on occasion too if most of your food choices come from high quality, nutrient dense foods.
You track your spending to make sure that you have enough to satisfy all your obligations without overspending. In a similar way, you’ll learn to spread your daily calorie target across the three macronutrients: protein, fat, and carbohydrate. You’ll track your intake of each macro to make sure that you meet your body’s energy needs without overeating.
Its time tested and proven to work. Macro counting is helpful to reaching your goals through food and fitness!
