How are macros calculated?

Macronutrients are the calories that come from protein, carbs, and fat. Protein provides 4 kcal/g, carbs 4 kcal/g, and fat 9 kcal/g.

  • Protein: 1.6–2.2 g/kg of body weight for most active goals; higher (2.2–3.6 g/kg) for cutting.
  • Fat: at least 0.7 g/kg; often 25–30% of calories.
  • Carbs: fill the remainder to support training and daily function.
