- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- I have used MacroFactor for the last 14 months, here are my thoughts and if you should give it a try yourself!
If you have any questions on the app itself, let me know and I would be happy to answer!
Here is a fitness app training video I made on JuggernautAi: • Juggernaut AI Powerbui...
Thanks for watching! If you have any questions about MacroFactor let me know!
Hey I just came accross this video, I really liked it! If you see this, I have a question if that's okay. It's been a year since you posted this, I was wondering how you feel with the MacroFactor app another year later? Do you still recommend it?
@@RobertoTorres-lo8yrit’s his app I don’t think he’s going to say much bad about it.
This is the review ive been looking for, a "random" guy - not sponsored or with a code and just giving his experience. Thanks!
Appreciate you taking the time to make and post this! Insightful, lean and thoughtful. Good stuff matey :)
Thank you for the thorough review! 👍
Thanks for the comment! Hope it was helpful!
The video seems to be cut of a bit early, or perhaps that was intended?
Otherwise great video!!
Hmm yeah for some reason it cut off, but there wasn’t any more info just the sign off! That’s for noticing and the feedback!
Do you find the food options available for tracking to be fairly vast? Are restaurant options also provided? Thanks very much.
I use this app and restaurants are in there as well. It definitely has a vast amount of foods. Plus the barcode scan for nutrition information is worth it on it own. lol
@@wesleysoriano5427Do you have any idea if it would scan labels in languages other than English too? (Like Dutch/German)
@@arpanakashray6283 Ja
@@arpanakashray6283it literally scans the barcode, there’s no different language for barcodes
@@arpanakashray6283 German here, it indeed does do that- there is an option for the label scan called "Non-US Label" It sometimes does have an issue with commas/dots. you can edit it easily tho and its mostly accurate
How exactly does the expediture calculator work ? Do you enter workouts you did and it calulates it based on weight and height ? or do you enter steps/cals from something like fitbit ?
It tracks just off data, so the only inputs are your bodyweight and food consumed. Then after about 3 weeks it hones in on your expenditure based on changes in your weight vs calories consumed. So If your steps increase or decrease in a period of time your bodyweight trend update the expenditure calculator
Authors say that the method described by @PaladinPerformanceTraining is more accurate, than relying on "calories burned" in a smartwatch.
I was wondering the same thing great question. Did you end up using the app ?
Great review. Thank you.
Hello! Do you still use macro factor? Are there any cons to it?
How effective is it for lean bulking?
Pretty effective if you follow the prescribed macros! Can set a super low rate of gain and get to work
@ChrisJakob264 how do you set a low rate of gain?
Better than Carbon Diet Coach app?
So I’m noticing some discrepancies between what the food label reads and what MacroFactor logs, as in, MFP says my citrus cuties are 35 calories per fruit, gala apples around 80 calories but when I log them into MF it logs the foods at like 10-20 calories higher than the actual food label. Do I use MF numbers or should I lower their calories to match the actual food label
Always match to the label
I’m not bothering, if it gets that wrong it’ll know whether you need to eat more or less based on your weight loss/gain, it moves you towards your goal as healthily as it can.
Are refeeds built in here?
I really like it
Why is your audio so echoy when you clearly have a good mic? 😢
Because the room you record in is FAR more important than your mic. Also, he had the mic pointing down, so the cardioid pattern is facing at the floor away from him, literally recording echoes.
