pro = 4cals/gram
carb = 4casl/gram fat = 9cals/gram so if you are doing 200g pro (40%) cals = 800 200g carb (40%) = cals 800 44gfats (20%) = cals 400 total cals = 2000 Personally i work out 1g/lb pro + 20-25%fats and the rest carbs. I find this method works for me. Last edited by BulkMeUp : 09-26-2004 at 07:52 AM. |
