How much protein, carbs and fats do you need per day?
The answer is simpler than you think…
Getting your macronutrients wrong leads to:
– low energy
– more hunger
– losing muscle
– being skinny fat
– feeling like crap
– low testosterone
Good news is:
You won’t have to worry about the above after reading this short email.
Basic macronutrient nutrition explained:
1. Protein – eat 1g per 1lb
If you’re at a healthy weight:
Eat 0.8 – 1g protein per 1lb of bodyweight for optimal growth.
If you’re fat:
Eat 0.8 – 1g protein per 1lb of your GOAL bodyweight.
E.g:
You’re 250lbs & wanna get to 190lbs
Eat: 152 – 190g protein
Next is fats:
2. Fats – eat 40g minimum
Fats are needed for your hormone production.
If you eat less than 40g of fats – you’ll feel like crap.
Simple, right?
Carbs next:
3. Carbs – eat as many as you want
After you hit your protein & fat goals – the rest of your calories can come from carbs.
For energy: eat 50g+ of carbs before workouts.
Carbs give you energy – but you can live without them.
If you wanna feel fuller – eat more protein.
