How do you figure your macros? Is there a certain site you use? I have been researching the carb cycle method, and know the basics of how it works, just need to decide the exact carb amounts for me. Hope that makes sense?

I just checked these out again. Starting back up this week.4 -
I’m just starting too. I’ve been reading a Carb Cycling book at this is what it said:
High Carb Days:
Protein=1 g/lb
Carb=1g/lb
Fat=.25 g/lb
Calories:
Protein x 4
Carb x 4
Fat x 9
And then...
Low Carb Days:
Protein x 1
Carb x .15
Fat x .4
Calories:
Carb x 4 = cals
Protein x 4 = cals
Fat x 9 = cals
