Weighing out food ? Calculating macros? If you take it serious why do you do it ? If you don't why don't you ?

All prepared at the latest the morning of each day. I record everything I eat. I weigh all my food. I know my exact macros. Why do I do it? No idea! To be honest, I have a big footy match coming up in 10 days but after that is out the way I'm going to loosen up my diet A LOT. Getting and maintaining 'ripped' is a terrible waste of life.

Sufficient calories and protien (spaced throughout the day perhaps), everything else is pretty much noise as long as your not malnourished.

I'm not only a strength athlete so my life is not exclusively about gaining strength.

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5207 posts	Strength training is more of a hobby for me though I am doing a meet in end of may. Suppose I'm entering in a lighter weight class so I try to gain strength while cut a bit of fat simultaneously. Not easy but can be done.
