Understanding Your Results

What these numbers mean and how to use them.

BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)

Calories your body burns at complete rest. This is the minimum energy needed to keep your body alive (breathing, circulation, cell production). We use the Mifflin-St Jeor equation for accuracy.

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure)

Your total calorie burn including activity. This is BMR × Activity Multiplier. This is your maintenance calories - eat this amount to maintain weight.

Protein Target

Set at 2.2g per kg (1g per lb) for muscle building/preservation. Protein has 4 calories per gram. Essential for recovery and growth. Non-negotiable.

Fat Target

Set at 25% of total calories for hormone production. Fat has 9 calories per gram. Critical for testosterone, vitamin absorption, and cell health. Minimum 0.6g per kg bodyweight.

Carbs Target

Remaining calories after protein and fat. Carbs have 4 calories per gram. Your primary energy source for training. Adjust based on training intensity and goals.

Calorie Adjustments

Cut: -500 cal/day (1lb/week loss). Bulk: +300-500 cal/day (0.5-1lb/week gain). Monitor weekly and adjust as needed. Track weight average over 7 days.
