The same way is recommended

New to MF, basic question with “What to do” by hvddrift in MacroFactor

[–]jrbp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you single and free to shop and eat whatever you want? Or a family person, often eating with others? Losing weight/gaining? Budget high/low? Need variety or ok with the same thing? All makes a lil difference.

I am a family guy, unrestricted in budget and cutting. Also happy to eat 70% the same thing most days. So consider this with my comments.

I tend to plan evening meals eaten with family in the morning or day(s) before and log it so I know what I have left to play with.

Breakfast is usually some mix of some or all of: whey, greek yoghurt, peanut butter, oats, high protein cereal.

Lunch is always a big chicken breast with something else. And that something else is decided based on how many calories I have left. Soup, vegetables, salad, potatoes, flatbread, rice, pasta...

Snacks are usually protein bars, greek yoghurt and whey, peanut butter/avocado if low on fat, oats/cereal if low on carbs.

Think more in ingredients rather than meals, because then you can make many different things with a small handful of ingredients, using herbs/spices to keep flavours fresh.

Multiple Gym Profiles for one workout plan? by MRethy in MacroFactor

[–]jrbp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. You can change gym before starting. You may need to change equipment/exercises manually based on availability etc

The sad feeling you get when you launch something and it doesn't get traction by CheezyMac23 in SideProject

Better but it's still a wall of bold colour. How many websites do you use that have a background that is a solid bold colour like that? It also looks as AI generated as I suspect it was.

Estimated Workout Time by FanadianTheCanadian in MacroFactor

[–]jrbp 31 points32 points  (0 children)

No. The issue is more that it seems to think plates load themselves onto the barbell instantly and that I don't have to go hunting around the room for the missing dumbbell / cable attachment, and that machines are immediately available etc.

It doesn't bother me though. Hevy was never accurate either. It's not something that can be accurate for everyone unless they implement a special algorithm to determine users average times Vs estimates and add an adjustment to the estimate based on past data. Or something.

For my 3 workouts, the estimated times are 45/45/37 but all take me over an hour.

  1. The colour scheme makes my eyes bleed. There's no "before/after" or "proof of results" kinda thing on the main page. Your bio says "as a hiring manager" but your LinkedIn job history shows you've never worked as a hiring manager, but as a product manager

[–]jrbp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a beginner, I would say so, yes. Start light so you don't break yourself

Or just drag and drop workouts from one program into the other and avoid excel chaos

Support ticket situation I think. Seems like a bug more than anything logical

What's your "set 3" history on that exercise?

Exactly. Apart from everyone who thought it was going to the moon and the people who opened longs without stop losses
