I think there are both types of people. I fall under the macro-counting type.
Usually at least 1 g of protein per lbs/body weight, carbs depending on my training (anywhere from 250~300 g), and the fats are generally within 60~80 g range, sometimes ~90 g. Fat gets manipulated depending on the calories for the day which changes with training.
There are others on the forums who don’t count, and they do very well. Hopefully I’ll just be able to instinctively do it sooner or later.
