Macros

My approach to macronutrients focuses on performance and recovery:

  • Protein: 1.6-2.2g per kg of bodyweight daily, prioritizing high-quality sources (lean meats, eggs, fish, dairy, plant-based options)
  • Carbohydrates: Periodized based on training demands (3-7g per kg of bodyweight)
    • Higher on intense training days (focusing on workout timing)
    • Moderate on light training days
    • Lower on rest days
  • Fats: 0.8-1.2g per kg of bodyweight, emphasizing healthy sources (avocados, nuts, olive oil, fatty fish)

Macro Timing

  • Pre-workout: Easily digestible carbs + moderate protein (1-2 hours before)
  • Post-workout: High-quality protein + fast-digesting carbs (within 30-60 minutes)
  • Throughout day: Balanced meals with all macros to maintain energy and recovery
