Use our pro physique macro calculator to easily determine your optimal macronutrient intake for your fitness goals.
How To Use The Pro Physique Macro Calculator
Simply enter your weight in pounds, your height in inches, age in years, select your gender, and choose an activity level that best represents your daily routine. Click on the “Calculate” button, and you will be presented with your recommended daily intake of macronutrients.
How It Works
The calculator starts by estimating your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) using the Mifflin-St Jeor equations, which consider your weight, height, age, and gender. Then, it multiplies your BMR by your selected activity level to determine your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE). It calculates your protein needs based on your body weight, followed by your fat needs. Carbohydrates are calculated with the remaining calories to meet your TDEE. The result is an estimate of your daily macronutrient needs to help you achieve your physique goals.
Limitations
The calculator provides estimates based on averages and standard equations. Individual requirements can vary significantly due to factors like metabolism, muscle mass, and specific fitness goals. It is recommended to consult with a nutritionist for personalized advice. Additionally, the calculator assumes a typical macronutrient distribution and may not be suitable for specific diets such as ketogenic or vegan.
