Macro targets are a reflection of how you want to feel, look and perform NOW and in the future.
If you’re eating real, whole food most of the time – there’s really no screwing it up! Let go of the “allowed” and “not allowed” list and embrace the freedom of choice and autonomy.
The question is no longer, “what can I have?” and rather becomes, “what do I want?”
Certain circumstances might warrant higher fat, higher carb or macro balanced meals:
>> you need to pack in some carbs before your heavy training session later
>> you load up on healthy fats because it’s a put-your-head-down-and-focus kinda morning – and can’t be bothered with frequent snack breaks
>> you need a quick meal that hits your check point macros and keeps you on track for your daily macro targets
So peep this post for inspo:
Fat focused smoothie base that includes coconut milk (F) or avocado, topped with unsweetened coconut (F) + cacao nibs (F)
Carb heavy smoothie base that includes juice (C), topped with dried fruit (C) + fresh tropical fruit (C) + granola (C)
Macro balanced smoothie base that includes full fat Greek yogurt (PFC), topped with nuts (F) + seeds (F) + fresh berries (C)
Which one would you try?
