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 snack that hits hard on all 3 and keeps you on track for your daily macro targets
So peep this post for inspo:
Fat focused rice cake base topped with full fat yogurt (F) almond butter (F) + crushed pistachios (F).
Carb heavy rice cake base with jam (C) + blueberries (C) + strawberries (C).
Macro balanced rice cake base with fat free greek yogurt (P) + hummus (F) + canadian bacon (C).
Which one would you try?
