Understanding macros is the first step to taking control of your nutrition. But how do you know what ratio is right for you?
Protein
Protein is essential for muscle repair and growth. A higher protein intake can also help with satiety, making it easier to stick to a calorie deficit.
Carbohydrates
Carbs are your body's primary energy source. Don't fear them! They fuel your workouts and brain function.
Fats
Healthy fats are crucial for hormone production and nutrient absorption. Include sources like avocados, nuts, and olive oil in your diet.
