Avatar is still on my front runner list for how in gonna get my macros and track soon. RP is just too rigid and I don't like eating in that fashion. It feels like using a sledgehammer to drive a nail. If I was a competitive athlete RP would be my choice. I find that my appetite is largest in the morning and by evening I only need a small dinner to be satisfied. RP flies in the face of my natural rhythm.

The RP simplified templates are interesting to me for that reason alone, too. Have you gotten your hands on those?

I believe I have the simplified PDFs in my folder on my drive.

And yea I feel like that with RP. My compliance is practically nil because wants me to eat like a competitive bodybuilder and I am just not into that. I hate eating that away and prefer at a minimum 16:8 IF and Avatar supports that.

Avatar has been adding features constantly. They could easily add a competitive athlete template and write the percentages that RP provides in books and easily have an app better than RP on every front.

Main thing with Avatar is to keep building the database.

The new moving targets and carb/fat switch make a huge difference in flexibility. Me knowing what I know about macro timing and performance nutrition this allows me to not only have high/low days but also fluctuate the macros easily around when I workout.

Honestly Avatar is just a better all around system because of all these features.
