How do I find my MACROS (con’t) Step two:
Protein intake○ 0.8g – 1.4g/ kg of bodyweight
Step three:Fat intake varies
Step four:Carbohydrates varies
Example: 2000 total Calorie diet Weight = 75kg Protein:
0.8g x 75kg = 60g Protein x 4 = 240 total calories from protein
Fat: 30% of diet2000 x .30 = 600 total calories from fat / 9 =
67g of fat Carbohydrates = remaining
2000 – 600 – 240 = 1160 calories / 4 = 290g of Carbohydrates
Which number(s) are right for me? Numbers are subjective
