Even if you choose clean foods, eating too much or too little can affect your energy and progress. Here is a simple way that I always use to measure my portions no scale needed!
đ Complex Carbs
These are your main energy source, great before and after workouts.
(oatmeal, brown rice, sweet potato, quinoa)
Portion size:Â 1 cupped hand
đ Fruits
Full of vitamins and perfect for snacks or after training.
Portion size:
Whole fruits: size of your fist (apple, orange)
Small fruits like berries or melon: 2 cupped hands
đ„Š Vegetables
Eat as many as you want! Theyâre high in fiber and very low in calories.
Portion size:Â UNLIMITED !
đ„ Healthy Fats
Important for hormones and feeling full, but calorie-dense, so measure carefully.
(avocado, olive oil, nut butter, seeds)
Portion size:Â size of your thumb.
đ Protein
Helps build and keep muscle while controlling hunger.
(chicken, fish, eggs, tofu, Greek yogurt)
Portion size:
Women: palm of your hand (without fingers)
Men: whole hand (with fingers)
Simple is always better!
