    Mar 15 2025

    Playing Macro Tetris can be tough at times a coach and many don't have a valid reason for toggling certain macronutrients.

    - Why I’m Starting with Carbohydrates

    - Personal Preferences

    - Glycolic Activity

    - Metabolic Adaptation Issues

    - Building or Gaining Phases

    - Fiber Considerations
