Hey friends!
A couple things…
First, this is a general video mainly about what a macro is, showing you how to use the scale and then calculate a general starting point! If you’re truly looking to get as accurate and precise as possible I highly recommend hiring a nutrition coach to guide you for at least 3 months minimum. I personally work with M2Performance Nutrition.
Second: Something we didn’t make super clear is that protein when logged if logging as cooked should have a (cooked) next to it since the chicken I showed you was already in it’s cooked state! When I was searching I just grabbed the first chicken to show you how to change serving sizes etc. and that should have had a “cooked” next to it!! We will show this in our next nutrition video! Otherwise you can weigh protein Raw then cook it and log the raw weight or you can multiply the cooked amount by .75 if you don’t like working with raw meat.
I personally always weigh cooked then log with a “cooked”behind it.
If you are having trouble hitting your protein goals and only weighing cooked you are actually eating slightly more protein than you think you are so with this small change you might be hitting your protein goals and not even realizing it!
Hope that clarifies things a bit more!! Thanks for watching as always and thanks for all the comments!! ❤️
This is literally the most helpful video I’ve ever seen, thank you 🙏
🙌🏼 Thank you!
This was the best training in macros I’ve watched. Thank you!
The 140 lbs is that the weight you start out as or the weight you want too be?
Great video and inspiration. Will start counting macros. You have a new fan!
This was super informative! Thank you! I would love more nutrition videos! You make them easy to understand.
This was awesome. I learned a lot
This was the best and easiest video to learn how to calculate macros! People often confuse and over complicate it. Thanks for sharing 😊
Wow excellent video!
Ive always been so confused about macros and you’ve explained it so well!! Thank you!
The easiest instruction on macros that I have found to date. Thank you!
Thank you very detailed with numbers and percentages 🦾
This is the first video I saw about macros and this is al all need. Very well explained!! THANKYOU! 😃
You dummy this down for me thanks so much Kristi
Great, informative video. Thank you
Great info!
i have always had an extreme fear of gainning weight, i go to the gym 5x per week and was on a 1300 calories intake, i'm starting to realise this is actually really low and it's probably fucking my metabolism up. I did this math and i'm starting today on a 1778 cal daily intake and im very scared
I'm just learning and it's a little confusing to me but it shouldn't be. Just having a hard time to figure out how to get started.
Thank you so much for the indepth explanation! ❤
How do you know where to adjust if your initial calculations aren't doing anything? Also how much do you take off? What is taken off, is that added to another category?
So if I want to burn fat how do I change my Marcos to become lean ie loose the fat. Where do I cut the calories from fats or carbs?
How do you tell your body type if you’re overweight? What if your natural gram is hidden under the weight? I need help understanding please.
Subscribed thank you!
Thank you this makes sense.
Thank You from Marylad
was saying this was a lot to digest, a joke?
Would love to see more on Macros
For the first time I’ve understood this so THANK YOU 👏🏻🙏🏻
YES!!! I finally found the one answer no one has been able to confirm, and that is calculate your macros on your GOAL WEIGHT, and not your CURRENT weight. I’ve been saying this over and over. Why would we calculate out macros based on our current weight if we wanted to lose 40 or 50 pounds. That means you’re calculating macros on the fat that’s on your body??? That just doesn’t make sense. Macros, and calories calculated on your GOAL weight is the GOLDEN TICKET TO WEIGHT LOSS!!!
First time it was ever explained that actual made sense, thank you!
Thank you ! 😊
Hi, great video. So in your example of the 140# woman who wants to lose weight, if her goal is to get to 120#, does she recalculate as she slowly lose the weight? Maybe at every 5# lost interval?
So if u are 58 yrs old do u do ur macros the same way as u are explaining it ? I am 58 and need to loose weight ? Do as long as I stay within my macros I should loose weight right?
Omg u are awesome u are the first person that really explains how to do the macros ? Thank u for being so detailed
You said in the beginning to use the ideal weight you want to be to get the macro count, then used the persons actual weight. Which is it????
I really appreciate the positive outlook on the use of MyFitnessPal. It has been difficult to find such simple information that we all should know, I really needed this video as now I have created my own macro plan! Thank you!
You are so awesome and perfect 👍🏼
which app you use to calculate the macros
This was the best explanation of macros I have seen. Thank you!
This is SO helpful & makes this process a lot less intimidating.
Finally somebody taught us the right way
This video was great! Loved everything about it. 💖‼️
The best video on the subject, hands down! Thank you so much!
If I Like to do carb cycling ( 2 days of lower carbs on my rest days ) would you say decreasing my calories by 200 from the formula you gave us is a good strategy to lose weight?
I workout 5 days a week with strength training burning an avg of 250 calories per workout based on my Apple Watch.
Thanks!
Your formula was very helpful!
