How active am I? (I workout but I'm currently unemployed)

marfranccr

ok I'm a 18yrs/5'8/160lbs guy trying to bulk up so I go to the gym 4-6 a week, I always walk to the gym and back (two 15min walks) and i usually work out for 60-90min but I'm unemployed so I spent most time sitting around and don't really do any other physical activity besides playing soccer every once in a while. Should I list myself as a sedentary, lightly active or active person? (I'm trying to figure out my macros/daily calorie intake)

Lol if you take those options seriously. Your maintenance might not necessarily be the same as others so an app ' suggestion is prolly inaccurate.

Just establish a weekly caloric goal and keep track on a weekly basis if you gained weight. No need to complicate things.

you sound lightly active, not sedentary
