I'm starting a new cut and I'm thinking of a traditional 40-40-20 macro, I was wondering how important it is on how much carbs, protein and fat is in each individual meal or if the 40-40-20 is just an overall day goal. Also i heard to cut all carbs out of your last meal is this the best choice?

40P 40C 20F is a decent starting point, but chances are you'll see better results if you either lower carb intake or cycle carb intake.
