Plant-Based Macro Playbook

Hitting real protein targets on a plant-based diet without relying on guesswork.

1. 1

   Set your real protein target

   Plant-based doesn’t mean a lower target, use the same 1.6–2.2g/kg range as any other diet approach for an active goal.

2. 2

   Combine protein sources deliberately

   Legumes, tofu, tempeh, seitan, and protein powder all count, spreading them across meals is usually easier than one large serving.

3. 3

   Scan mixed dishes carefully

   Plant-based bowls and stir-fries are exactly the dishes AI photo scans estimate least precisely, log ingredients manually when precision matters.

4. 4

   Check your weekly protein average

   One low-protein day is normal, what matters is whether the weekly average in your dashboard is actually hitting target.
