In this episode I discuss 5 tips to help you get started tracking your macros! While I know it can seem overwhelming, it’s key we truly understand the foundation of proper nutrition if we want to get not only amazing results, but LASTING RESULTS.
SUMMARY:
- Break things down into small sustainable changes.
- Focus on one change at a time.
- Don’t strive for perfection but for progress.
- Focus on making changes based on where you are currently. The key is creating a healthier version of our ACTUAL lifestyle.
3 KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Log
- Focus on adjusting protein first.
- Tweak the meals you already enjoy instead of trying to completely change your diet.
- Plan ahead and even create “sample” days based on previous logs.
- Don’t start by cutting out the foods you love!
RS PROGRAMS:
- The Macro Hacks Program – The best results happen when our diet and workouts work together. And my Macro Hacks goes over how to dial in your diet at EVERY AGE!
How does your macro Hacks Program differ to the Macro Map that I purchased a while ago?
How do I know how many fats protein and carbs I should be having ?
Hi Tasha. The macro hacks helps you decide ratios based on your needs and goals, even as they change over time. You can also do this free calculator to get started – https://redefiningstrength.com/macro-calculator?sl=blogcomment
The map is all of your meals mapped out and a done for you option. The macro hacks teaches you to do it yourself with sample days and recipes.
Cori….Would you mind letting us know how you can get a “Macro Map” done for us? Thanks so much.

Hi Cori, how do you work in foods that you don’t have the macros for, like if you go to a party and want to have some of the foods there. I hope that makes sense.
Hi JoAnn. So I personally haven’t really memorized the macros in like any food haha. I usually google what it is with “macros” attached to find something similar at least and enter it or at least compare to the ingredients in my fitness pal.
Hello – I am looking at the Macro Hacks challenge. Do I need the physical book or are the materials all available with the digital download? I live in Canada.
Hi Lisa! They are all digital so you don’t miss out!
Thank you for your tips ☺️
Your a great trainer
Thanks! Glad they help!
