Macros and Performance: The Importance of Protein, Fats, and Carbohydrates
Balancing macros is crucial for optimizing performance. Protein is the most important macro, followed by sufficient fats for health and hormonal balance. Consuming fats beyond health benefits does not provide performance benefits.
