What apps/methods do you like to use for counting?
For the first time..ever, I have started counting my macros. I just had a BodPod assessment done, so now I have an actual goal to shoot for. I'm looking to bulk up.
The results put me on the fatter side that I thought I was on..but still, it's good to know:
Body fat: 26.8%
Fat weight: 49 lbs
Lean mass: 73.2%
Lean weight: 134.1 lbs
Total weight: 183.1 lbs
Estimated RMR: 1,658 kcal/day
Estimated TEE: 2,122 kcal/day = Est. RMR (1,658 kcal) x 1.28 (activity factor - sedentary)
I got in the sedentary range because I work from home 4 hrs x 10 days/week..sitting on my anus. I'm a lanky to medium build guy. I carry the majority of the fat in my gut. I lift every other day and the only cardio I do is walking up and down steps from 1st to 3rd floor and vice-versa since my office is on the 3rd floor. I'm not totally sure what to do with these numbers quite yet. I mean I have a pretty good idea. But I will ask more specific questions on a separate thread.
Anyways, I have personally started to check out the MyFitnessPal app. My first impression is that I like it so far. I HOPE that if I do this long enough, I can just eyeball it and not have to count every single damn macro that I eat.
