How much protein do I need over 40?
0.7–1g of protein per pound of bodyweight per day is the research-backed range. For a 170-pound person, that's 119–170g daily — significantly more than most people actually consume.
Do I need to count calories?
Tracking provides the most reliable data but isn't always essential. Coach's coaching focuses first on building high-protein habits that naturally reduce caloric intake.
Should I cut carbs to lose fat?
Not necessarily. The foundational requirement is a caloric deficit with adequate protein. How you achieve that can include carbs, exclude them, or anything in between.
Is nutrition coaching included with training coaching?
Yes. Coach's programs integrate both training and nutrition — the two systems work together and should be built together.
