1. What is the Macro Calculator?

The Macro Calculator provides personalized macronutrient recommendations for muscle gain and fat loss based on body weight. It calculates optimal protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake to support your fitness goals.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formulas:

Where:

• \( weight \) — Body weight in kilograms
• \( Protein \) — Recommended protein intake in grams per day
• \( Carbs \) — Recommended carbohydrate intake in grams per day
• \( Fat \) — Recommended fat intake in grams per day

Explanation: These ratios provide a balanced approach to macronutrient distribution that supports both muscle growth and fat loss simultaneously.

3. Importance of Macro Calculation

Details: Proper macronutrient distribution is essential for optimizing body composition, supporting muscle recovery, maintaining energy levels, and achieving specific fitness goals.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your current body weight in kilograms. The calculator will provide daily recommendations for protein, carbohydrates, and fat intake.
