Frequently Asked Questions

What are macros?

Macros (macronutrients) are protein, carbohydrates, and fat - the three nutrients your body needs in large amounts. Protein and carbs provide 4 calories per gram, while fat provides 9 calories per gram.

How much protein do I need?

For active individuals, 1.6-2.2g protein per kg body weight is recommended. Sedentary people need about 0.8g/kg. Higher protein is better when building muscle or losing fat.

What macro ratio is best for weight loss?

A common ratio for weight loss is 40% protein, 35% carbs, 25% fat. Higher protein helps preserve muscle during a deficit. The most important factor is total calorie deficit.

What macro ratio is best for muscle gain?

For muscle gain, try 30% protein, 45% carbs, 25% fat with a calorie surplus. Higher carbs fuel workouts and recovery while adequate protein supports muscle growth.
