Hey Team,
I'm very big guy currently weighing in at 308lbs and I a few questions around what my macros should be. But before I ask the questions I'll try and provide you with much information as possible.
Using the Building Your Meal Plan Guide + BMR Calculator (Meal Planner) this is what I came too.
My Info

BMR
BMR at Rest = 2685
BMR in Motion = 4162

Weight Loss Goals

2. Weight Loss under 200lbs
3. Maintain Achieved Weight Loss Goals
4. Reduce Body Fat to Optimal percentage.
Final Goal
Gain Lean Mass + Definition
Questions
1. As mentioned in the Building Your Meal Plan that the final macro is just a baseline, how do I manipulate the above final macros to archive my weight loss goals?
2. On days of rest and little to no exercise what should my macros be?
3. On days of intensive workout what should my macros look like with keeping in mind my goal is currently to lose weight.
I understand that everyone bodies react differently and what may work for you may not work for me but if I can get an understanding on how to manage my macros then I can do it.
Sorry for the wall of text but if you could answer this that would be great!
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Vincent
