Description

Have you ever wondered what macronutrients are or how to calculate your own? Determining your macronutrient quantities can help you lose body fat, maintain your weight, or gain muscle depending on whether you're eating above or below the amount of calories you're burning each day. Hosts Allegra Paris and Dalton Evans explain how using a macronutrient calculator as well as a few other mathematical tools can help you find out how many grams of carbs, protein, and fat are needed for you to reach your goals. They do admit, however, that it can take some trial-and-error to find out the exact ratio for you! Understanding that this is a tool you are going to use for the rest of your life, so spending a few weeks on it now is worth it. They also discuss workout ideas when traveling- from staying at hotels with gyms to packing resistance bands in your suitcase and doing workouts online (you can find travel workouts on Allegra’s app, Bikini Body).
