Why Count Macros?
Counting calories ("Calculated In vs Calculated Out") determines weight change, but counting macros determines body composition change.
- Protein: Essential for building and repairing muscle. High protein intake keeps you full and protects muscle while burning fat.
- Fats: Vital for hormonal health, brain function, and vitamin absorption. Never eliminate fats completely.
- Carbohydrates: The body's preferred energy source for high-intensity training and brain activity.
