    What are the macros and total cals of your diet?

    I like to choose the macros I'm shooting for first and then make a list of food choices and amounts that will allow me to hit those macros.

    Ex I'm eating 350g protein, 275g carbs, and 80g of fat which gives me about 3200 cals.

    Then choose food sources in the correct amounts to hit those macros. Make sense?

    "age 24
    height 6ft
    weight 225
    tdee3432
    bmr2214
    bodyfat 14%"


    LBMX15=TDEE

    225x25%=56.25
    225-56.25=168.75

    168.75X15=2531

    TDEE = 2531. I would use this value for baseline.

    Mickey's theory is correct but his figures are wrong. LBM X 15 is a more accurate way to figure tdee IMO but at 225lbs and 14% it'd be 225 X .86 = 193.5lbs LBM X 15 = 2902 cals for tdee so subtract 300 - 500 from that to create a deficit.

    I just realized i use 25% instead of 14%!??? WTH?? Why did i do that?? Duhhh!

    Thank you for catching that, Sarge. I have no idea why i used 25%BF? Go figure..

    Sorry for the confusion, Giovanni.

    I would eat whole eggs in the am and switch your pre workout shake for 2 cups of white rice and 8oz beef then pwo I would just drink bcaa's and glutamine and 15min later eat 1/2lb potato and another 8oz beef.... I bet that helps more then worrying about every single calorie at this point.... Worry more about whole food sources and gradually increasing calories in every meal....
