There's a very clear description of how to find your macronutrient mix and calories.

Ok:
So more intense the sets of HIITS are the more Catecholamine is released therefore triggering the lipid stores and are trapped by lactate which is also produced, and is protecting the lipid stores so you need to create mitochondria to clear both lactate and the lipids from the blood stream by strengthening you capillary density which happens when you enhance your VO2max then clearing the lipid stores and lactate by exercising at 25% your VO2 max.

So you quoted me 20 mins of cardio after. So thats 10 sets HIIT sprints 10 min walking? And you said Circuit training was ok in your Daredevil article. Still not recommended? Lastly I need help with the diet calculation. So I keep it at a 500 kcal deficit? Wont I level out? What about maintenance once I reach my weight? So for my weight it would be 300 gram protien 200 gram carb and 100 gram fat....right?

Sorry I missed this. Circuits are fine as a sub for sprints - you'd still need some heavy lifting in your week, though, to hold onto muscle mass.

Diet, you just run a modest deficit - 10-20% below maintenance - until you hit goal. Then slowly creep up the calories until you hit maintenance.
GauSha, see my reply to your identical post in the other thread.
