The MacroForte Editorial Team

Editorial · MacroForte

Behind MacroForte sits a small editorial team. It builds a macronutrient calculator and writes the supporting articles, which is why the two rarely disagree.

Expect writing about Macro Tracking and little else. Since it turns body statistics and a goal into daily protein, carbohydrate and fat targets, with the option of basing the split on lean mass, most pieces follow the same path through the numbers: setting daily macros before a training block, checking a protein target against body weight and adjusting the split after a change of goal.

Every article is checked against two things before it goes live: that the method reproduces, and that nothing in the wording could be read as professional advice. Where a topic edges towards regulated advice, the article stays on the measurement and maths side and points the reader to a qualified professional.
