Ep 96. Macros Aren’t Math, They’re Metabolism
If you’re still coaching macros like they live in a calculator, you’re missing the most important part: your client’s context.
In this episode, Eve breaks down why macros aren’t just numbers ... they’re communication. You’ll learn how to stop treating nutrition coaching like a math problem and start seeing it for what it really is: a conversation between metabolism, hormones, and lifestyle.
This is the episode that will make you rethink how you build macro plans, how you assess client feedback, and how you coach beyond the numbers.
Because macros aren’t math, they’re metabolism. And once you learn to read the body’s signals, you’ll never coach the same way again.
You’ll Learn:
- Why macros are more than calories and ratios
- How hormones, stress, sleep, and cycle phases affect client response
- What “metabolic communication” really means
- How to shift from calculator-style coaching to physiology-based coaching
- Why client context matters more than perfect numbers
- How to coach the person, not just their data
Key Takeaways:
- Macros are communication — every adjustment is a signal to the body.
- The same macros hit differently depending on stress, sleep, and recovery.
- You can’t coach macros in isolation; you have to coach the human.
- Great coaches don’t just track numbers — they interpret biofeedback.
- This is what separates coaching for results from coaching for understanding.
Power Quote from Eve:
Macros are communication. Every adjustment you make sends a message to the body — and the body always answers. The question is: are you listening?
