So I do cardio around 3x a week and lift 3-5 x per week. Apart from staying within my macros I'm wondering what I should emphasize in my diet on cardio days vs lifting.

    On my cardio days I try to have a decent deficit at the end of the day. Lifting days my deficit is only around 150-200 calories. Plus on lift days I get around 230-240 grams of protein at the end of the day. So far it's working for me. Down 23 lbs.
