Know how to build a healthy plate? Well, Precision Nutrition has you covered.
Trying to gain muscle? Lose weight? Just eat healthy? Then finding the right portions is probably on your mind.
But calorie counting is usually a recipe for failure: It’s annoying, impractical, and research shows it can be up to 25% inaccurate on both sides — calories in, and calories out.
We can’t stand it. So we came up with a better way for Precision Nutrition Coaching clients — and anyone else who wants to look and feel better — to get the right amount and balance of food at every meal.
The best part? The only tool you need is your hand. It's proportionate to your body, its size never changes, and it's always with you, making it the perfect tool for measuring food and nutrients — minimal counting required.
Of course, just like any other form of nutrition planning —including calorie counting — this serves as a starting point.
You can’t know exactly how your body will respond in advance. So stay flexible and adjust your portions based on your hunger, fullness, and other important goals.
