What are macros?

Macronutrients — protein, carbohydrates and fat — are the three nutrients that provide energy. Protein and carbs contain 4 calories per gram; fat contains 9. Getting the right balance for your goal helps you lose fat, maintain weight or build muscle more effectively than tracking calories alone.

This calculator estimates your maintenance calories using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, adjusts them for your goal, then splits them into a protein-forward macro ratio that protects lean muscle.

Hitting your macros

  • Prioritise protein at every meal — it's the hardest to hit.
  • Build meals around lean protein, then add carbs and fats.
  • Use a food-tracking app for the first few weeks to learn portions.
  • A protein supplement makes high targets far easier to reach.
  • Recalculate as your weight and goals change.
