Hi Squad, IMPORTANT: FOR WEIGHT LOSS when calculating your goal lower your daily maintenance calories by between 100 and 500 FOR WEIGHT GAIN/MUSCLE GROWTH increase your daily maintenance calories by between 100 and 500 I accidentally left out a clip explaining this part in the final edit 💔 Sorry squad for the editing mistake.
As much as I didn't want to...I thought I could eat intuitively, I started tracking about a year ago and realized I was woefully under-eating! So I immediately but gradually started eating more. I have a question about your calculation for weight loss, you didn't put yourself in a deficit before calculating your macros? Are we supposed to do that or is the 50c, 35p, 15f really sufficient for fat loss? No need for a deficit with this ratio?
Thank you 🤩 Yes it's so true about intuitive eating! Honestly, it's the best way especially mentally and it is so powerful when combined with a basic understanding of macros.
Yeaaa longer vlog... No I don't track anything, maybe should try... I started the 14 days program (today is day 6) and I am loving it my body is crying tho, but is worth it...
Oooh well done. Remember to use the tips on my episode on muscle recovery! 😁 Ps today’s episode was tough to get under 10 mins 😫 hopefully the calculations make sense! 🔥
I was calculating my calories for 9 months and lost 20 kg from my weight. But you let me understand some important things I wasn't know like I have to add my activities to my calories 🙃
I never track, because I’m one of those types that might do a deep dive and start counting every little thing. That being said, my REE is only 1052 calories per day. That is like one burger and fries combo. YIKES! 😫 (And that’s why I exercise.)
This is great 😊 I’ve always become stuck on macros because online calculators are never accurate. I use my fitnesspal and my Fitbit to calculate my macros. I wanted to try this method out to see how much a difference it’ll make, but I’ve become a bit stuck on the activity factor. Do you just mean exercise in general or physical activity too? I have a 7 hour job with 2 days off a week and I do at least an hour to hour 30 mins of exercise a day, cardio one day and weights the other days alternating between the two.. so what activity level would you say I’m at?
What would i be if i do just your programs on app so usally 4 days a week and at least 20 to 30 min normal pace walk 5 days a week with it..also why would my calories go up if i workout i was told not to eat more calories that id burn for workouts so i can loss weight not eat them back ??
You calculated the number of calories to MAINTAIN your weight and then you allocated those calories among the macros. So where does the weight loss come in? I mean, shouldn’t you determine the calorie deficit, subtract, and then allocate the calories among the macros?
@@anydae He calculated calories to maintain weight but didn’t calculate a deficit. He allocated total calories to maintain weight to each of the macros. Just because he allocated to macros using the suggested ratios for weight loss doesn’t mean he would lose weight if he’s still eating all the calories to *maintain* weight.
😂 it's just the way that the equation is written. But definitely convert your weight into kg so you can get a feel for what you are currently eating and how it compares to the base macros we set for weight loss or muscle growth 😁

This is what i wanted to ask for a long time. Thank you! Ive been counting my macro’s but didnt know for sure what i was doing!!! Now I know!
You explained this better than anyone I've watched
Do you track your macros? If so, how has it been for you?!
It keeps me accountable
how many calories do I add /subtract for breastfeeding and working out? I have my base numbers.
I've been using myfitnesspal for a few months, not bad so far. Thanks to that I realized that I was eating less than I should before.
Boyyyeee this is complicated!

Great video!! So important to get a base understanding but I also advocate intuitive eating when you need to :)

This is the most helpful macro video i have com across! Thanks for sharing all your knowledge 🤩

@@Mrandmrsmuscle Yes, I do like longer vlogs... Yes it made sense... Thankful for the tips🤗
@@Mrandmrsmuscle it was easy to follow. thank you

🤩 Wow!! Great job so far!! I am glad that this video was useful and can help you further on your already fantastic journey 🙌🏾💕
Just started this week and so far it is going great!
Our gymnasts were on for Olympics, then it was artistic swimming 😁 so a lot yesterday
I'm greatful for this video because it breaks it down and makes so much more sense.
This was just what I was looking for! Thank you!
Thanx alot for information bro
Great job and keep motivating 💪
Great info. Thanks!
My Pleasure! Glad it was helpful 😊
Thank you, so much. This was awesome.
thank you for this this helped a lot!!
🤗My pleasure!

When I subtract the calories by the percentages it gets higher? I even tried doing the same numbers as you and they aren’t coming out the same?

Awesome video
You stay Faithful! Aye!
😁😁
Mr. Muscle I’m new to you channel can you tell what is considered too much exercise?
The tv was on as I listened to it. I transition between TH-cam and the olympics. Dave on Hulu, Delhi crimes on Netflix, virgin river on Netflix

Watch the video over. He spoke of calculating the calories for weight loss and calculating the calories for body building. It's all there

You lost me at kg 🤦🏽♀️ but awesome vid😆

Hi, is the first () is equal the desired weight or the actual weight
Actual weight.
First
😁🙌🏾
@@Mrandmrsmuscle ☺️🙌🏻
This makes no sense. Doing the exact calculations as you and coming up with very different numbers???
You should get different numbers. The calculations apply to you and your body and your goals (losing fat vs building muscle). He was calculating his.
Lmao
