Frequently Asked Questions about the Macro Calculator

How much protein do I need per day?

For muscle building, aim for 1.6–2.2g of protein per kg of body weight. For maintenance, 0.8–1.2g/kg is sufficient.

What is the best macro ratio for fat loss?

A high-protein approach (30–40% protein) preserves muscle during a calorie deficit. Low-carb diets (under 20%) can accelerate fat loss for some people.
