Understanding Macros

So there are three (I guess four) macros.

Fats, Protein, Carbohydrates and Alcohol

Rethinking your relationship with MACROS

  • Protein
    • Building block for muscle
    • Satiates you
    • Maximize this every day
  • Fats
    • Hormone expression
    • Too little will stop hormone expression
    • Have just enough
  • Carbs
    • Purely to fuel the workload

Protein is the building block. You need to get the right amount every day. The muscles need it. General function of the body require it.

Fats are not needed as much as you think Just a minimal amount

Carbs are essential in a small way, about 50 to 100 grams. But beyond that, they are just fuel.
