Users of the Garmin Vivofit, Garmin Vivosmart and other Garmin fitness trackers or watches, will be able to steps, sleep, active calories, and
remaining calories from the «my day» screen, and it can even show you a map of the route you took during exercise, along with associated data like average pace and elevation gain.
Add an apple to fill
the remaining calories and receive some extra nutrition!
Carbohydrates:
The remaining calories after protein / fat is calculated.
Total Calories: 2000 (500 below maintenance level) Total Protein: 100 grams (half their weight) Total Fat: 55 grams (25 % of their 2000 calorie total) Total Carbs: 275 grams (all of
the remaining calories once protein and fat totals were factored in)
After making sure you're eating enough protein, how much of
your remaining calories come from carbohydrate or fat depends on your personal preferences, tolerances, and goals.
The most practical way to set your carbohydrate intake is to fill in
your remaining calories with carbs.
Your protein intake is determined by your body weight / lean mass and activity level and your fat intake makes
the remaining calories.
As mentioned above,
these remaining calories will come from carbs.
I follow (what I was told is standard) 1 gram of protein per pound lean bodyweight, 0.35 grams of fat per pound lean bodyweight, and then figure out the grams of carbs from
your remaining calories...
I start by figuring out the minimum amount of fat and protein needed per day and then fill
the remaining calories with carbs.
Macronutrient adherence can be a bit less strict during this time — staying within your target maintenance calories is crucial, and it's important to more or less hit your protein needs, but
the remaining calories can be split amongst carbs and fat as you see fit, and if you're a little low on protein here or there it's not as important as during the «on» portion of your prep.
This amount makes up 75 percent of the 80 calories in these portions, with
the remaining calories coming from a small amount of protein and fat.
Other than that, I like to set my protein intake to 1 gram / lb of lean body mass and then fill
my remaining calories with healthy fat.
Starches then provide
the remaining calories as well as make the hard, crunchy texture dogs like.
It's worth noting that you'll burn through about 1700 - 1800 calories on average doing next to nothing, so it doesn't take a lot of exercise to take care of
the remaining calories in the recommended 2000 - calorie - a-day diet.
