You canβt build muscle by focusing on just one macronutrient. They all matter.
π₯© Protein
Protein gives your muscles the building blocks they need to grow.
If youβre not eating enough (roughly 1.6β2.2g per kg of bodyweight when training hard), your body simply canβt repair and build muscle β no matter how good your workouts are.
π Carbohydrates
Carbs fuel your training and refill your muscles after workouts.
They help you train harder, recover faster, and protect muscle from breaking down.
No carbs = low energy = weaker sessions = slower progress.
π₯ Fats
Fats help keep your hormones healthy and support recovery.
When fat intake is too low, strength, recovery, and results often suffer.
Most people feel best when fats make up 20β30% of their calories.
Muscle growth is about balance.
Protein builds.
Carbs fuel.
Fats support.
Train hard. Eat smart. Recover properly.
