Fuelling

Fuel with intent

Macro targets you can actually hit, meals that fit around your life, and no list of banned foods. Fuelling is the half of the equation most plans skip.

Targets before recipes

Your daily energy and macronutrient targets come out of the same intake that drives your training: body stats, activity level, training load and the direction you want to move in. Those numbers are the plan. Everything else is a suggestion for how to reach them.

Why we do not hand out a diet

Restrictive plans fail for a predictable reason: they assume the same fourteen meals will suit every week of your life. This works the other way around. You get targets, a rotating library of meals that land inside them, and the freedom to build your own days once you understand the shape of a good one.

  • No banned foods. Nothing is off the list. Portions and frequency do the work instead.
  • Eating out is planned for. Guidance for restaurant meals, travel days and social weekends is part of the plan, not an exception to it.
  • Preferences respected. Vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, dairy-free, gluten-free and the common allergens are handled at target level.

Timing that matches training

On training days the portal shifts carbohydrate towards the hours around your session and keeps protein spread evenly. On rest days the totals change shape rather than collapsing. The point is steady energy, not a permanent deficit.

Day typeWhat shiftsWhy
Heavy training dayMore carbohydrate, timed around the sessionFuels the work and speeds refuelling
Light or conditioning dayModerate carbohydrate, protein steadySupports recovery without over-fuelling
Rest dayLower carbohydrate, fat slightly higherMatches intake to a lower output day

Logging without weighing everything

You can log to the gram if that suits you. Most members use portion-based logging instead, with hand and cup measures mapped to their targets. It is accurate enough to move the trend and sustainable enough to keep doing in month six. The meal ideas page shows six shapes built this way.

MacroPortionRoughly

CarbohydrateOne cupped hand20–30 g carbohydrate
FatOne thumb7–12 g fat
VegetablesOne fistFill the rest of the plate

The method

Portions over precision

The hand method converts your targets into something you can apply at a canteen, a restaurant or someone else's kitchen table, without a scale in your bag.

One palmRoughly 20 to 30 grams of protein, and it scales with your own hand.
One cupped handRoughly 20 to 30 grams of carbohydrate.
One thumbRoughly 7 to 12 grams of fat.
One fistVegetables, filling whatever is left of the plate.

The principle

Nothing is banned

Portions and frequency do the work that willpower usually gets asked to do.
