Why Macros Matter More Than Calories

Two people eating 2000 calories can get completely different results. Why? Because macros are where the magic happens.

300g protein + 150g carbs + 50g fats = 2000 cals → MUSCLE GAIN

50g protein + 250g carbs + 100g fats = 2000 cals → FAT STORAGE

Same calories. Opposite results. That's the power of precision macros.

0.8-1.2g per lb bodyweight
Builds muscle, burns fat, keeps you full. Non-negotiable.

Adjust based on goal
Bulking? Go high. Cutting? Drop them. Your energy lever.

0.3-0.5g per lb bodyweight
Hormones, recovery, brain function. Don't skip these.

TDEE: 2500 calories

Bulking Calories: 2500 + 400 = 2900 calories

Protein: 180g (180 lbs × 1g) = 720 calories

Fats: 72g (180 × 0.4g) = 648 calories

Remaining for Carbs: 2900 - 720 - 648 = 1532 calories

Carbs: 1532 ÷ 4 = 383g

Final Macros: 180P / 383C / 72F

"You can't out-train a bad diet. But you CAN out-eat bad genetics with precision macros."

Not Tracking: "I eat healthy" ≠ hitting your macros
Too Little Protein: If you're not hitting 1g/lb, you're leaving gains on the table
Fearing Carbs: Carbs aren't the enemy. They're your fuel
Obsessing Over Perfection: ±10g on any macro? You're fine. Don't stress

Calories control your weight. Macros control your body composition.

Want to build muscle? Hit your protein.

Want consistent energy? Dial in your carbs.

Want optimal hormones? Don't skip fats.

Track everything. Adjust as needed. Watch your body transform.
