🍗 What Are Macronutrients?

Macronutrients (macros) are the three main nutrients your body needs in large amounts: protein, carbohydrates, and fat. Each plays a vital role in your health, energy, and body composition goals.

💪 Macro Roles

  • Protein (4 cal/g): Builds and repairs muscle, supports immune function, keeps you full
  • Carbohydrates (4 cal/g): Primary energy source, fuels brain and muscles, supports exercise performance
  • Fat (9 cal/g): Hormone production, nutrient absorption, brain health, sustained energy

🎯 Macro Split Guidelines

  • Fat Loss: High protein (1-1.2g/lb), moderate fat (25%), remaining carbs
  • Maintenance: Balanced (0.8-1g/lb protein, 30% fat, rest carbs)
  • Muscle Gain: High protein (1-1.2g/lb), moderate fat (25-30%), high carbs
  • Keto/Low Carb: High fat (70%), moderate protein, very low carbs (5-10%)
