The Empowered Podcast

Today the guys talk about to workout your calories dependant on your goals, how to adjust those calories, how to balance your macronutrients and a few do's and do nots with both of those areas! Calorie equation:  Female - 22 x Bodyweight in kg = Y.     Y x your activity level (1.1-1.9) = Your maintenance calories.  Male - 24 x Bodyweight in kg = Y.     Y x your activity level (1.1-1.9) = Your maintenance calories.
