154. Flexibility with Macros: 5 Options to Help You Design Your Week & Stay Consistent on Your Fitness Journey

The topic of macros is something I get asked about a LOT. I know it can feel complex and overwhelming; the nutrition piece pretty much always takes longer to get a handle on, compared to workouts. 

Thankfully, you don’t *need* to try and achieve perfection with your macros every single day. You don’t *need* to live a life that feels monotonous or boring, and leads you to you dreading the entire process!  

In today’s episode, I’m sharing 5 different ways you can design your week and your macros, in a way that works for YOU. Since working with many clients (and on my own journey), I’ve found that going off of weekly macros averages vs. daily can better assess overall progress, and really lead to positive, long-term results. 

Yes, it does take time to get into a ‘groove’ with your macros, but again, perfection is NEVER required.

Whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or you’ve been doing this awhile, I hope this episode shows you that flexibility with macros IS possible, and you can do this from a place of abundance - no restriction required! 
If you need more personalized support with all of this, I’d love to support you with my 1:1 Coaching. It’s time to find confidence with macros, and make this an enjoyable part of your fitness journey - FOR GOOD!!
