Ratios

[weightloss41]

Hi

Do many of you use a ratio with your food??? Eg 20 percent fat/40 protein and carbs?? Thanks!

I dont look at the percentages/ratios, I just have a set number of macros to hit eat day. Ex: 150g of Pro, 45g of Fat etc...I plan my meals to hit those numbers but I dont know the % ratio.

Ditto....I follow macros. I carb cycle so it will change depending on what carb day it is.

How many carbs do you do???

When I'm building I do a 2 to 1 ratio. 23g of protein and 50g of carbs per my trainer...but we're all different

It can be confusing, but its all trial and error to see what works you YOU and YOUR body as we are all so unique.
