In today's episode, Grant and Heavey specifically teach you how to count your individual macros if you're trying to lose fat. How is macro counting applicable to other diets? Lastly, they factor in non-intentional physical activity into the equation (which could very likely be the cause why people are not achieving the amount of fat loss they want to hit even if they're on a calorie deficit.)
