🧮 About this calculator

Calculates daily calorie target based on goal (lose / maintain / gain) plus a suggested macronutrient split. Protein is set high (1.6-2.2 g/kg) to preserve muscle in a deficit and support growth in a surplus. Fats set at 25-30% of calories for hormonal health.

📘 Formula & explanation
TDEE * goal adjustment, then split: P=2g/kg, F=25% kcal, C=remainder

Calories: cut = TDEE * 0.8, maintain = TDEE, bulk = TDEE * 1.10. Protein = 2g/kg bodyweight. Fat = 25% of total calories. Carbs = remaining calories.
