The Best Macros for Fat Loss for Women

from The Holly Perkins Health Podcast · host Holly Perkins BS CSCS

The key to fat loss, feeling stronger and more energized isn’t about eating less, but eating more strategically. This episode is a deep dive into the ways carbs, proteins, and fats influence fat loss, and my top macros for getting lean.Finding the right diet system is an individualized process that requires trial and error. Experiment! There are, however, underlying truths across diet systems which I share in this episode. For instance, no system should make you feel really uncomfortable or like you like herculean discipline to stick with it. The results of one of my amazing 70 year old clients who realized incredible results on her DEXA scan by shifting her macronutrient intake and building muscle will definitely inspire you to focus on your macros!Did you know that getting enough carbs is just as important for fat loss as getting enough protein? And enough fat? This is where macros strategy comes into play. I share the two things you must do to improve your body composition AND my macronutrient distribution strategy that I usually only share with private coaching clients! Wherever you are in your fitness journey, prepare for some fine-tuning!Ready for a great night’s sleep? Try Beam’s best-selling Dream Powder and get up to 40% off for a limited time.
