So like I can't tell you how many times I've had a client.

that feels way better with a higher fat and a lower carbohydrate type of diet.

And then vice versa, right?

Somebody will be much better off of a moderate fat to low fat and a much higher carbohydrate diet.

And certain people will do really well on protein up to a certain threshold.

And then over that is too much and their digestive is off.

So this is where really...

understanding your macros and what your body needs based off of your goals and your body where it's at.

And then within that, you know, playing with those numbers and going like, oh, I seem to do better when I have more of this and less of that.

And, you know, you have, like you said, your point, there's your essential numbers and then you have like optimal and optimal may look different for each individual.

And I've found that,

It's not a sex by sex or weight class by weight class or goal by goal that changes.

It's just there's an individual variance of some people do better on a higher carbohydrate diet versus other people do better on a lower carbohydrate.

Some people do really well on really high fat versus moderately high fat.

And so until you kind of learn –

What does your body need?

And then how do we play with those additional calories within those macros?

Almost always.

Yeah, I would say unless you have that rare condition, because occasionally you do have somebody who has digestive issues at a high amount.

I was just going to say, so a lot of times what that is is actually playing with the type of protein many times.
